IV Series
The IV Series is an all-in-one “Vision Sensor” featuring a camera, a light, and a controller. This sensor
can be attached easily so complicated detection operations such as detecting the shapes of parts with a
photoelectric switch can be achieved easily.
Operation conditions settings require the IV Software, IV-Navigator (IV-H1) or
the intelligent monitor (IV-M30). After setting is completed, the sensor can be operated independently.
The IV Series operates as an EtherNet/IP communication adaptor or a PROFINET communication I/O device.
With EtherNet/IP communication or PROFINET communication, the control output signal and status result,
etc., can be input to the PLC as communication data.

Overview of EtherNet/IP
Overview of EtherNet/IP
EtherNet/IP is an open industrial networking standard developed and maintained by the ODVA (Open
2
DeviceNet Vendor Association, Inc.). All supported devices can use the communication network regardless
EtherNet/IP
of the vendor.
Ethernet and an industrial protocol have been combined and standardized as EtherNet/IP (Industrial Protocol).
Communication is achieved by combining a protocol called CIP (Common Industrial Protocol) and the TCP/
IP and Ethernet. This allows the network to be shared and used with standard Ethernet.
To start the Ethernet/IP communication, one device needs to open a communication line called a "connection"
for the other device. The device that will open a connection is referred to as the "scanner", and the device
whose connection will be opened is referred to as the "adapter" (IV series is an adapter device).
The EtherNet/IP communication offers the following two types of communications: Cyclic communication
for sending and receiving data periodically (Implicit communication), and message communication for
sending and receiving commands/responses at arbitrary timings.
In the cyclic communication, you can set the RPI (Request Packet Interval: communication cycle) based
on the priority of the data to be sent/received, enabling sending/receiving of data with adjusted overall
communication load. Various data including the control output, status result import, trigger control and
switching to the set program No. can be communicated without a ladder program.
In the message communication, you can send/receive the required commands and responses at the required
timings. The message communication is used for applications requiring no punctuality unlike the cyclic
communication, such as for reading and writing the adapter device settings.
What is EtherNet/IP?
The IV series supports cyclic communication (Implicit communication).

Overview of the cyclic communication
Overview of the cyclic communication
What is cyclic communication?
This function enables cyclic (i.e. in xed intervals) data communications with the EtherNet/IP devices.
This function provides high-speed control with several to several tens of milliseconds.
The communication can be controlled by referencing and updating the variables in the PLC, making it easy

PLC settings
You can set the following settings for the PLC:
(1)
Set the connection to be used for the cyclic communication.
(2)
Set the device to be used for the cyclic communication.
For details of the setting, refer to the instruction manual of each PLC.
If you are using the Keyence KV series, (1) and (2) can be set automatically simply by making a selection
in KV STUDIO.
Establishing the connection
In the cyclic communication, one device opens a logical communication circuit called a “connection” for the
other device; and data communication will become possible if the open is successful.
The device that will open a connection is referred to as the “scanner”, and the device whose connection
will be opened is referred to as the “adapter”.
(IV series is an adapter device)
In the EtherNet/IP communication, a connection must be opened from the scanner when the cyclic
communication is started.
3
Cyclic communication
The communication is started in the following procedure:
(1) The scanner requests a connection open request to the adapter.
(2) Compatibility will be checked on the adapter side.
(3) A connection will open if no error is encountered in the compatibility check.
(1) Connection open request
(2) Compatibility check
(3) Connection open
Scanner Adapter device
A compatibility check is used to check whether the device set by the scanner and the IV series are in
match with one another, in order to prevent the scanner from communicating with a wrong device when
it communicates with the IV series.
Communication settings for the cyclic communication, such as the communication cycle (RPI) and the
data size, will be congured on the scanner side.
In a network with many connected devices (including the EtherNet/IP devices), a network delay and/
or packet loss may occur when there is a heavy load on the network. Conduct a thorough verication
before the operation.

(Monitor data)
When using the Keyence KV series (EtherNet/IP communication scanner), the names of the connections
with the IV series will be “Monitor/External Input” and “Monitor Data”. The relationship of each connection
name is as described below.
1 : Monitor Data And External Input → Monitor/External input
2 : Monitor Data (Input Only) → Monitor data
The trigger timings of each connection are controlled by the cyclic communications; and both the point-
to-point and Multicast connection types are supported.
If you wish to open “Exclusive Owner” and “Input Only” connections simultaneously, set the connection
type to “Multicast” and match the RPI and the size.
The details of each application type are as described below.
[Exclusive Owner]
This connection allows you to congure the data transmission from the scanner to the IV series, and
vice versa.
This connection type is used when the scanner will not only monitor the data of the IV series but also
provide external input to the IV series.
It is not possible for multiple scanners to open "Exclusive Owner" connections for a single IV series
unit.
[Input Only]
This connection only allows you to congure the data transmission from the IV series to the scanner.
This connection is used when the scanner will only monitor the data of the IV series.
Multiple scanners can simultaneously open “Input Only” connections for a single IV series unit.
If connections will be opened simultaneously from multiple scanners, set the connection type to
“Multicast” and match the RPI and the size.
