1 INTRODUCTION
About these operating
instructions These Operating Instructions describe the installation,
operation, commissioning, and maintenance of the DSE-15
sensor and provide important instructions for proper use.
The operating instructions must be carefully stored and must
always be available at or near the customer's system during the
service life of the sensor.
Translation of the original Operating Instructions:
These Operating Instructions are a translation. The original
Operating Instructions were composed in German.
Target groups These Operating Instructions are directed to both the
system
construction
master
as well as the
operator
who uses the sensor
in production line.
Read operating instructions
The Operating Instructions must be read and used by
all persons
who have the responsibility of installing, commissioning,
operating and maintaining the sensor.
Proper usage The digital reflected light sensor D
SE-15
is used for non-
contact measurement of the lateral offset of a material web
being guided in a customer system. The sensor is suitable for
– Web edge guiding and
– Web center guiding for dual application.
The sensor can be used to control opaque , transparent or
reflective materials.
The sensor must only be used in accordance with its intended
purpose and in a technically flawless conditions.
The sensor must not be changed or opened.

Improper usage – Operation outside of the technical specifications is not
permitted.
– Operation in areas where there is a danger of explosions is
prohibited.
– The sensor may not be used as a support, handle or step.
– Any use other than the designated use is not permitted.
Operating principle The DSE-15 sensor uses pulsing, visible red light for coaxially
transmitted and received light beams. This makes the sensor
insensitive to ambient light and reflections.
The light source generates a red light. Depending on the
amount of the sensor field of view covered by the material web,
a portion of the light strikes the reflector installed under the
material web. Reflected light is received by the sensor and the
ambient light is filtered out. Based on this the receiver generates
the output signal from which the precise position of the web
edge is determined.

INTRODUCTION1 - 3
DSE-15 www.maxcess.euMI 1094 1
It is possible to operate the sensor with either a supply voltage
of 12V or 24V. The output signal would automatically be
switched over in that case.
– Power supply voltage 12V:
The sensor provides an output signal in the range from 0 to
10mA. Thus the sensor can be connected to all Fife web
guide controllers.
– Power supply voltage 24V:
The sensor provides an output signal in the range from 4 to
20mA. This can be used to establish a wire-break-proof
connection to external devices.
An integrated LED display shows information about operation
states directly on the sensor, for example whether supply
voltage is applied, the cover of the red light beam and error
messages.
Option A digital production data acquisition to Fife D-MAXE controller
extends the range of applications for the sensor inside the
digital network environment. Additional sensor data can be
provided to other hardware equipment if the Fife D-MAXE is
linked appropriately to the network.

ATTENTION
The sensor could become unusable.
Depending on the material of the controlled web, it is possible a
grinding of the material web or a plane change could strike and
damage the sensor or reflector.

The reflector of the sensor must be inclined at an angle of
+(3°±2°) or -(3°±2°). This will prevent undesirable reflected
light from striking the sensor
If the material is recorded with a glossy or matte surface, the red
light beam should strike the web level at a certain angle.

Electrical connection
ATTENTION
The sensor could be damaged.
The safe function of the sensor and the system is only
guaranteed if it is properly installed.
Electrical connections should always be made or disconnected
on the sensor while there is no electrical power in the system.
When attaching the connector with the jack on the sensor,
pay close attention to the guide and groove! The connector and
jack must not be connected with incorrect orientation or by
force, as this will destroy the sensor.
Electrical lines must not be subjected to any mechanical
loads.
∙The sensor must be connected to the web guide controller
according to the system diagram in the system
documentation.
Note:
Normally the sensor must be connected to the web guide
controller with a cable on the corresponding sensor input. In
some cases two sensors can be connected to a sensor input on
the web guide controller via a Y cable or an external distributor
box.
only for sensor cables with open wire ends

5 COMMISSIONING
WARNING
Unexpected movements of the machine may lead to injuries or
death.
The sensor must not be placed in operation unless it has
been securely mounted.
Commissioning must only be performed while the machine is
stopped and protected against being turned on again.
Make certain there is no one in the hazardous area of the
drives.
Setting up the sensor
and reflector Precondition:
– There must not be any material between the sensor and
reflector.
– The protector of the sensor and the reflector must be clean.
Setup 1. Switch the web guide controller to "Manual" operation mode
2. Align the light beam of the sensor to the reflector
3. Place a finger on the S1 key
Check: The green LED H2 is lit
Note:
If LED H2 is not lit, increase the coverage of your finger on
the S1 key, for example by using your thumb.
4. Do not remove your finger from the S1 key until the LED
display matches the adjacent bit pattern, alternating with it
Check: The green LED H2 goes out
The sensor performs the setup for the reflector
automatically.
5. The sensor is now ready for operation.
