Safety instructions
Caution
During commissioning and programming, the safety regu
lations listed in this manual and in the documentation for
the controller and the other components used must always
be observed.
The user must ensure that nobody has access to the
sphere of influence of the connected actuators. Access to
the possible danger zone must be prevented by suitable
measures, such as protective screens and warning signs.
Caution
Electrostatically sensitive devices! Electrostatic discharges
can damage the internal electronics.
Do not open the housing. Observe the handling specific
ations for electrostatically sensitive devices.
Festo GDCS-SBOC-EN en 1602a
Caution
If the permissible temperature range is exceeded, e.g. due
to powerful external sources of light, this can lead to sys
tem errors and cause damage.
Mount the Compact Vision System in a well ventilated
location, especially screened from the heat emitted by
other devices and from sources of light.

1.1 Structure of the Compact Vision System type SBOC-M-R1B-H
Components The Compact Vision System type SBOC-M-R1B-H is an
intelligent high-speed camera with integrated electronics for
image processing and communication. It is contained in a
compact and robust housing and offers:
– an image-reproducing CMOS sensor (resolution 640 x 480
pixels; ½ inch; monochrome) with high frame rate (max.
241 pictures per second with full resolution; reduced res
olutions enable higher frame rates)
– interfaces for communication and for connecting external
equipment
– a standardized C-mount lens socket (suitable lenses as
well as optical accessories such as filters and other lenses
are obtainable on request).
Function The Compact Vision System lets you achieve low-cost integ
ration of optical test devices for visualizing and analysing
fast motion sequences, e.g. for ascertaining errors, into your
machines and systems.
Configuration, commissioning and operation are carried out
with the software package “Festo Configuration Tool”.
User-specific firmware designs can be loaded into the device
for special applications.

1. System overview
Network and control The Compact Vision System can be linked directly to the PC
via the Ethernet interface. Several Compact Vision Systems
can be networked with each other in combination with a hub
or switch, in order to record a motion sequence from several
sides at the same time. Recordings can be controlled via
digital I/Os or by a PC.

1.2.1 Mode of operation
The Compact Vision System type SBOC-M-R1B-H has a
monochrome CMOS sensor. The camera pictures are
processed in 256 grey tones. The available processing
functions are integrated in the operating system (firmware) of
the device. Even motion sequences at high speed can
therefore also be registered and analysed with high accuracy.
Resolution The Compact Vision System offers a max. resolution of
640 x 480 pixels and a frame rate of max. 2100 pictures per
second.
Resolution
640 (H) x 480 (V) pixels 241 images per second
432 (H) x 328 (V) pixels
304 (H) x 224 (V) pixels
200 (H) x 152 (V) pixels
1) With the FCT and the plug-in “SBO..-M Network”, you can set the
frame rate infinitely variably. The values for the number of
columns and the number of lines must be divisible by 8. The
resolution is adapted here automatically. High frame rates reduce
the exposure time of the sensor and therefore require more light.
2) Corresponds to a height-to-width ratio of approx. 4:3. The same
frame rates can also be achieved with other height-to-width ra
tios.

1.3 FCT software (functional overview)
The Festo Configuration Tool (or briefly FCT) is used for com
missioning and operation. FCT is the software interface for
configuring and commissioning various components and
equipment from Festo. It can run under the operating systems
Windows® 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista und Windows 7
and offers a comfortable user interface. The FCT consists of
the following components:
– A framework as program start and entry point with uni
form project and data management for all supported
device types.
– A plug-in for the special requirements of each device type
with the necessary descriptions and dialogues. The plugins are managed and started from the framework.
The minimum requirements which your PC must fulfil in com
bination with the plug-in “SBO..-M Network” can be found in
the help for the plug-in.

1.4 Lens selection
Protection classes IP65 and IP67 can be fulfilled only in com
bination with the protective tubing (see section A.4 Technical
data).
Lens dimensions when the
protective tubing is used
Operation without protect
ive tubing
Please observe the following if you wish to use the protect
ive tubing:
– The maximum possible lens diameter is 38 mm
– The maximum possible length of the lens from the front
edge of the lens to the flange surface of the thread side is
42 mm.
Observe that with most lenses the lens length changes when
the focal position is reset. The setting “infinite” usually leads
to the shortest lens dimension.
If you do not wish to use the protective tubing, you can use
lenses in accordance with the CS-mount standard.
If you use C-mount lenses without protective tubing, you
must screw in a 5 mm spacer ring in place of the protective
tubing, in order to guarantee correct support dimensions
(accessories see A.2).

1. System overview
Ascertaining the suitable
focal length
The somewhat more expensive lenses with adjustable open
ing angle (zoom) enable you to adapt the field of vision to
your requirements. Lenses with fixed focal length are less
expensive. Whether a lens is suitable depends on:
– The smallest possible distance which can still be repres
ented sharply (minimum object distance - MOD)
– Focal length
– Light intensity
– Permissible distortion.
The object distance, i.e. the distance between the camera and
the object to be photographed, can be calculated according
to the laws of optics. Please observe that the following calcu
lation formula describes the distance between the so-called
main level and the object to be represented. With a thin lens
element, the main level is the centre of the lens. With an ob
jective lens, the position of the main level cannot be ascer
tained so easily. As an estimate you can assume the centre of
the objective lens to be the main level.
