Ultrasonic Sensors
Operating Instructions
bks+6/FIU
Ultrasonic web edge sensor with
analogue output and
IO-Link interface
Product Description
The bks+ ultrasonic web edge sensor
is a fork sensor for scanning the
edges of sound-impermeable and
slightly sound-permeable materials
such as foil or paper.
The fork’s lower leg is equipped with
an ultrasonic sensor which cyclically
emits short sound impulses, which
are detected by the ultrasonic
receiver accommodated in the upper
fork leg. Material immersing into the
fork covers this sound path and thus
attenuates the receive signal, which is
evaluated by the internal electronics.
An analogue signal and a binary
value via IO-Link is output in dependence of the coverage degree.
The bks+6/FIU optional can be programmed using the LinkControlAdapter LCA-2 and LinkControl soft-
ware.
The bks+6/FIU sensors are IO-Link-capable in accordance with IO-Link
specification V1.1.
Via the Teach-in button on the
edge sensor’s top or via Pin 5 on
the device plug, the sensor can
be adjusted to the material to be
controlled.
Choosing between rising and
falling output characteristic is
possible.
Three LEDs indicate the position
of the web material inside the
fork.
Safety Notes
Read the operating instructions
prior to start-up.
Connection, installation and ad-
justment works may only be carried out by expert personnel.
No safety component in ac-
cordance with the EU Machine
Directive.
Installation
Mount the sensor at the installa-
tion site.
Connect a connection cable to
the M12 device plug.
Start-Up
Connect the power supply.
Carry out the adjustment to the
web material in accordance with
the diagram.
Synchronisation
If two or more edge sensors are
mounted in a distance < 50 mm the
internal synchronisation should be
used. Connect Sync-channels (Pin 5
at the units receptacle) of all sensors.

put

sensor adjustment successful
The bks+6/FIU sensors are IO-Link-capable in accordance with IO-Link
specification V1.1 and compatible to
specification V1.0.
Note
In IO-Link mode Teach-in and Link-
Control are not available.
Process data
The bks+ cyclically transmits the
value corresponding to the measured
coverage degree with a resolution of
0.01 mm.
Service data
The following sensor parameters
may be set via IO-Link.
Teach-in via push-button
The push-button can be activated/
deactivated for sensor settings with
Teach-in.
Temperature compensation
The temperature compensation is
used for measurement value correction for varying ambient temperatures and can be disabled.
Analogue output mode
For the analogue output either the
function output voltage or current
output can be selected.
Rising / falling analogue characteristic
The analogue characteristic can be
set on rising (0 V / 4 mA at full coverage) or falling characteristic.
Set NOC/NCC
The NCC or NOC output function can
be present for the switched output.
Switching off the LEDs
When activated, the LEDs are switched off 30 seconds after a key
press. After a new key press they will
run for 30 seconds. This automatic
shutdown can be deactivated.
Measurement filter
bks+ ultrasonic sensors provide for a
choice of 3 filter settings:
F00 (no filter)
Each ultrasonic measurement acts
on the output in an unfiltered
manner.
F01 (average value filter)
Forms approximately the arithmetic
mean of several measurements.
According to the mean value the
output is set. The number of measurements, from which the mean is
formed is dependent on the chosen filter strength.
F02 (median filter)
Finds the median of several measurements. According to the median
the output is set. The number of
measurements, for which the median is determined is dependent on
the selected filter strength.
Filter strength
For both measurement value filters, a
filter strength between P00 (weak filter effect) and P09 (strong filter effect) can be selected.
Switching window
If the web edge is within the switching window the switching output
is set. The switching window is defined by the adjusted center and the
width.
Note
The switching window has to be
within the operating range.
System commands
With 5 system commands the following settings may be carried out:
restore IO-Link parameters to their
factory settings
sensor adjustment: fork cleared.
sensor adjustment: fork 50 % co-
vered
sensor adjustment: fork 100 %
covered
reset all sensor parameters includ-
ing the IO-Link parameters to their
factory settings.
Events
The bks+ sensor sends the following
events:
parameter was changed
sensor adjustment successful
sensor adjustment failed
IODD file
The latest IODD file you will find
on
the internet under
www.microsonic.de/en/IODD
.
For further informations on IO-Link
see www.io-link.com.
Note
Working range and gradient of
the analogue output curve depend on the ultrasonic transducers and cannot be adjusted. The
working range always is ≥ 40
mm.
For
sound-impermeable materi-
als
the sensor can be adjusted
to the environmental conditions
by the 1-point adjustment procedure.
For slightly s
ound-permeable
materials the sensor has to be
set up to the material and the
environmental conditions
by us-
ing the 2-point adjustment.
Carry out a practical test to find out
whether a material is slightly
sound-permeable.
For optimum measurement re-
sults the material to be detected
should be kept in a range of ± 5
mm around the centre between
the upper and lower fork leg.
The sensor can be reset to its
factory settings (see »Sensor adjustment with Teach-in procedure, further settings«).
Using the LinkControl-Adapter
LCA-2 (optional accessory) and
the LinkControl-Software V7.6
all Teach-in- and additional sensor parameter settings may be
made.
Depending on the function the
ultrasonic transducers in the upper and lower fork leg are
mounted with a slope of 2°.
