2 Intended Use
2.1 Field of application
The FA 45 Vision Sensor is an optical sensor with four different methods of evaluation: pattern matching, contrast, grey level and contour detection, by which the FA 45 Vision Sensor can detect or distinguish objects by means of previously defined optical characteristics (shape and grey-scale value), e.g. for separating „good“ and „bad“ parts.
Its main application are therefore in the fields of automation technology and quality assurance. With the FA 45 Vision Sensor it is easy to test for presence or absence, completeness, position, markings, labelling, packaging and compo­nents.
The FA 45 Vision Sensor is therefore an economical alternative to conventional image-processing systems.

2.3 Method of function
Evaluation method
During operation, the FA 45 Vision Sensor continuously compares the pattern of the detected image with that of the reference image. The pixel grey-scale values and (depending on evaluation function) the sample or the contours are analysed. If these conform with the reference image taking a certain tolerance into account (percentage of the set value) the FA 45 Vision Sensor triggers the switch signal.

3.3 Network settings
The following instructions indicate how to change the network configuration of the PC and the FA 45 Vision Sensor . If incorrect settings are used, the network connectins in the computer may be lost. To be on the safe side, note the former settings for later use if required. Following this procedure, it may be necessary to re-start the system. In order to determine which IP addresses are allowed in your network or locally in your PC, and to carry out the necessary settings on your PC, contact the system administrator beforehand.
The illustrations, dialogues and menus originate from the operating system Microsoft Windows XPTM. The illustrations are similar in other operating systems.
3.3.1 Basic settings for PC and FA 45 Vision Sensor
To configure the FA 45 Vision Sensor with a PC it is essential that a network board and the TCP/IP LAN- connection is installed on the PC. (This also applies when the PC is not connected to a network. See also chapter 3.2, Electrical Connection).
There are two alternatives to configure and parameterize the FA 45 Vision Sensor.
1. Direct Connection
2. Network Connection
3.3.1.1. Direct Connection - Setting the IP Address of the PC
To connect the Vision Sensor FA 45 to a PC via Ethernet the IP addresses of both devices have to correspond. The default IP of the FA 45 is 192.168.100.100/24 with Subnetmask = 255.255.255.0. To establish a direct connection, the PC must be set to a correspondig, fixed IP address like follows.
1. Click on Start Control Panel Network Connection Local Area Connection Properties the window "Local Area Connection Properties" is open.
2. In the list „This connection requires following elements“ select the option „Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)“ and then click the button „Properties“.
3. In the following window (see fig. 7) set the desired IP address of the PC and the sub-network data.
4. Click on OK to save the settings.
5. Close SensoFinder and start new,
6. Sensor mark and connect.
Microsoft Windows 98/ME™ requires a reboot after modification of the IP configuration.
Example:
The FA 45 Vision Sensor is pre-set to IP address 192.168.100.100 and subnet mask 255.255.255.0. In this case, the IP address may be set to any value between
192.168.100.1 and 192.168.100.254, with the exception of the sensor IP address (192.168.100.100).
For the sensor IP address modification, see system start-up.

FA 45-301
FA 45-301 has only one configuration. Only one configuration is activated, the other ones cannot be selected. This means that there is no selection configuration and logic functions available.
FA 45-300
The following part is only valid for FA 45-300
In this section, up to 32 configurations (samples) can be defined for object detection and also be linked with one another. The formation of configuration groups is also possible. Following selection of the appropriate radio button (1-32), the data for the configuration selected appear in the section „C Parameter active configuration“ where they can be set.
In the area „Select Configuration“ all 32 single results are displayed. In each configuration, e.g. with the object sen sor, one LED for the primary result = part detected = Q1, and one LED for the secondary result = Position OK/NOK = Q2, and the bargraph = degree of similarity with the taught pattern, is displayed with its threshold. This feature increases the transparency and eases the test and optimitation of the parameter settings a lot.
The grouping of configurations makes it possible to check several characteristics on different parts (e.g. change of parts by charge during production process with, for example, 4-5 characte­ristics per part).
With different configurations any type of evaluation method can be used (e.g. Config 1 = Pattern, Config2 = Contrast, etc.).

The configuration for which the parameters are to be set is selected with radio buttons 1-32.
Since the evaluation is based on one image only, all the configurations used with „Logic“ must be taught using the setting rules opposite and then saved. The settings refer to config. 1 or the last configuration activated.
To adjust several parameters of several configu rations identically in an easy way, use function „copy“

In order to identify complex object patterns definitely, single configurations may be grouped together logically to form a group of configurations. By means of this logical linking, it is possible to refer to several characteristics on several different parts. E.g. on part A, 7 different characteristics can be checked and for part B 8 characteristics up to a maximum of 32 altogether.
It is not possible to link groups logically with one another.
The evaluation per group starts with the configuration previous ly selected via IN2 or the serial interface and ends after the first configuration the check box). E.g. in the fig. opposite: group (part) A = configuration 1-7 and group (part) B = configuration 8-15).
The result is output via the serial interface RS422 and contains the complete information (see chapter 6) which configuration „IO“ (OK) or „NIO“ (not OK) provides. If several configurations are „IO“ (OK), the number of the configuration with the best result is transferred to the result byte „sorting result“. The most usual application for this is in sorting (separating) tasks.
Contrary to the setting rules on chapter 4.2.2, „Function IN2 = Ld Conf 1-32“ must be entered for each parameter configuration used (see chapter 4.2.3.3.1 and 8.1), otherwise the initial configuration for a group cannot be selected during operation.
In all groups only the same operator can be used at all times. Example: if the configurations of the group A are linked with „AND grouped“, group B can also be linked only with „AND grouped“.

4.2.3 C Parameters of active configuration
After clicking a radio button in the section „Select configuration“, the parameters for this configuration appear in the section „Parameter active configuration“ and can be set accordingly.
The following evaluation methods are possible:
Pattern matching, grey level, contrast, contour identification
4.2.3.1 Pattern matching
With this method, the image shown as reference during teaching is saved in the memory. The size and position of the reference is determined by the sample (see chapter 4.2. image in the current image. The object is identified as good depending on the setting of the threshold value (= degree of conformity). The pattern detection is tolerant of up to ± 5° of rotation in position. Patterns with greater degrees of rotation are not recognised.
Useful for checking correctness of parts for storage in infeed systems.
Example: The sensor was taught the following pattern
In the three sample images shown opposite, the object is recognised with 100% con­formity because the pattern learned is exactly the same even though it is in a different position in the picture. However, it differs only in direction X or Y and is not rotated to any extent.
In the next three images, the object was also recognised although with less than 100% conformity. „Good“ or „Bad“ results are provided depending on the setting of the threshold value (degree of conformity).
Pattern detection is tolerant of up to ± 5° of rotation in position. That means that the following images were also recognised, although the actual degree of conformity with the reference image would be less than 100% in spite of 100% pixel conformity. Patterns with more rotation are not recognised. This can be used (for example) as a function for checking the correctness of parts for storage in infeed systems.
4). In run mode, the FA 45 Vision Sensor seeks the reference
4.2.3.2. Grey level
The area test according to grey level works as follows: The sensor treats all pixels which are darker than grey-scale value 128 as black. The setting of the grey-level value indicates the maximum number of black pixels permitted in the image. By means of shutter setting it is possible to influence which pixels are recognised as dark.
Example:
Object representation:
Shutter setting:
The setting of the level value determines the maximum number of pixels detected as being dark which is required to pass the test. The position of the dark pixels in the image is of no importance.

Example:
The two images produce exactly the same result in the grey-level test, because in each case 9 of the 25 pixels are detected as dark.
If the threshold value in this example was set to 10, the following images would be recognised.
4.2.3.3 Contrast
The area test according to contrast works as follows: The dark and light pixels are evaluated according to number and intensity of lightness or darkness.

In practice, „Good“ parts are not 100% identical with the pattern taught. Slight differences in position or fluctuations in light level mean that they do not conform completely with the reference pattern.“Bad“ parts should differ from „Good“ parts in as many characteristics or as large a part of the pattern area as possible. If a pattern has been taught using a „Good“ part, it must first be established what degree of conformity with the pattern is achieved with various „Bad“ parts (length of bar / bar graph for result). The degrees of conformity with the pattern achieved with various „Good“ and „Bad“ parts should be as far apart as possible. The threshold value should be set approximately at the centre of this difference between the „Good“ and „Bad“ parts.
FA 45-300
The following part is only valid for FA 45-300
4.2.3.4 Contour detection
The contours of the object in the pattern area are stored in the sensor during the teaching process. In run mode, the sensor seeks the position with the greatest degree of conformity with the object taught or contour in the current image. If the degree of conformity with the stored contour is greater than the threshold value set, the object is recog­nised as good. Contour detection is fully tolerant of the rotation position, i.e. the object sought may appear in any position. Application example for contour detection: In the final inspection in a production line, the aim is to check the position and degree of rotation of a hose connection with a transverse socket.
The contour of the socket is taught: (established contour line blue)
Contour editing
If interfering contours occur, the contour data can be edited using the eraser. To remove the interfering parts of the contour, press the left-hand mouse button until a red square (eraser) appears and erase the unwanted parts. If too many edges are removed by accident, the contour must be re­learned. Shadows or edges of the object not visible in a different position can be eliminated, thereby improving and stabilising the function.
For a stable and reproducible recognition performance during contour evaluation, a high­constrast image is essential.

4.2.3.5 Delay times for the use of outputs Q1 and Q2 (Out 3 and Out 4)
There are up to three delay times available: (range 0-3000ms)
Case 1) no delay time used
Case 2) trigger delay = time between trigger and start of the picture recording in ms
Fig. 18 - 155-00308
Case 3) result delay = time between trigger and availability of the result signal
Case 4) result time = duration of the result signal in ms.

at Out 3 and Out 4 in ms.
Fig. 20 - 155-00310
Fig. 21 - 155-00499
When the delay times are used to control the switch outputs, it must be ensured that the sum of the times used is less than the cycle time of the plant from one part to the next, i.e. for the times defined here, only one part should be in the test area.
Special Case: Control of switching outputs with the use of the timing function „Result Period“
Output Behavior without Result Period Behavior with Result Period
OUT 2 (Ready 2) Directly set to LOW after the Trigger event
OUT 3 and OUT 4 = Results
(respectively when “Trigger-delay” > 0 after Trigger delay elapsed). Set to HIGH again after the switching outputs OUT3 und OUT4 are valid. So this signal shows that the sensor is „Ready“ again for the next evaluation and the results (= outputs OUT3 and OUT4) of the last evaluation are valid (Data Valid).
Results stay without any further change till the next evaluation is finished.
Directly set to LOW after the Trigger event (respectively when “Trigger-delay” > 0 after Trigger delay elapsed). But then set to HIGH again, not until the picture is taken, evaluation is processed and „Re­sult Period“ is elapsed. That means in this case this signal only shows that the sensor is “Ready” for the next evaluation. But it can not be used as a Data Valid, that OUT3 and OUT4 is valid, as in this case the outputs OUT3 and OUT4 are set back (High or Low, depending on the setting of parameter „Output active“) at the same time OUT2 is set HIGH again. The level of the Result outputs OUT3 and OUT 4 in this special case must be checked during „Result Period“ but after the evaluation is done. This must be controlled from the PLC indepen­dend from the OUT2 / Data Valid signal.
Results are set back after Result Period is elapsed. (High or Low) depending on the setting of parameter „Output active“.
Outputs active: HIGH or LOW = inverting of OUT3 and OUT4 HIGH = high active, i.e. when result OK, output = high LOW = low active, i.e. when result OK, output = low
The display LEDs in the user interface and on unit always switch in positive logic, i.e. they always light up when the output is active regardless of whether inverting is active or not.

Single Image
By means of the function „Single Image“ a single synchronised image may be retrieved triggered by an external source. Note that this function is only available if you are operating in the „trigger mode“. For this, activate the button „Single Image“. The sensor is then ready to receive a trigger signal from the hardware. In the event of a trigger signal the sensor takes an images and transmits this to the PC software where it may be used for training or adjusting the trigger.

Information about the configuration of the field of view and reference pattern
- The patterns should have a unique characteristic in order to ensure a reliable recognition. Patterns with high contrasts at the object edges especially fit for this purpose.
- Patterns or pattern characteristics should have clear contours. The less specified a pattern is the higher the rate of false recognitions.
- Patterns characteristics should NOT vary. Variable pattern characteristics results in higher rates of false recognitions. Especially varying shadows should not be taken into account in this respect.
- In order to keep the time for image recognition short, unnecessarily big fields of view should be avoided.

4.2.4.1 Frame type for position check
If the position check is activated for the evaluation method „pattern matching“ or „contour detection“, the position frame is shown in blue. The X/Y coordinates for the centre of the pattern detected (= green cross at the centre of the green frame) with reference to the top left-hand corner of the image (= zero point) is displayed in the result window. The increment for the coordinate values with method “contour detection” is “1”, with method “pattern matching” it
X
is “2”. That means with pattern matching only even coordinate values will occur.
Output for direction: „centre“ because the centre point of the pattern detected (= green frame) is inside the limits for position deviation (= blue frame)
Y

Coordinates via serial interface
In addition, the X/Y coordinates for the centre of the detected pattern (= green cross at the centre of the green frame) with re-
ference to the top left-hand corner of the image (= zero point) are output via the serial interface. These values always refer to a coordinate system of 300 units in direction X and 240 units in direction Y. Only even values are transformed, that means step width "2".

5.2 Application examples
Example: Detecting whether a retaining clip is open or closed using the evaluation method „Pattern Matching“.
Task:
During the assembly of a machine compo­nent, to check the status of a retaining clip (whether it is open or closed).
Fig. 26 155-00519
Condition:
The FA 45 Vision Sensor is mounted in position ( ter 3.2). The connection of the FA 45 Vision Sensor is described in the section „Start-up“ (see chapter 3.4).
When the FA 45 Vision Sensor is started up, the section „Picture“ in the computer software shows the last image recorded. To view (and continuously update) the live image, click the button „Live Image“ (in this picture, still out of focus).
To bring the object into focus, turn the focussing screw at the rear of the housing to the right or left.
To improve the contrast, use the „slide“ „Shutter“ in the section „Parameter, Current Configuration“.

Then make the following settings:
Using the mouse, set the pattern and field of view for the desired characteristic.
Evaluation method „Pattern Matching“ is default. All corresponding parameters are shown.
In most cases, the majority of parameters can be used with the standard settings. A different setting may be necessary to improve detection or shorten cycle times.
Fig. 30 155-00523
Click the button „Teach“ to teach the pattern in the red frame as the reference pattern and to display them in the window „Pattern“.
Fig. 31 155-00524
In „Trigger mode“ set „Free run“ in the sec­tion „Parameter active configuration“ and press the „Start“ button. The pattern is now evaluated continuously. The desired pattern is detected with 100% conformity.
Fig. 32 155-00528
The taught pattern is detected also with X­or Y- translation till the borders of the ROI. The display shown here is without „Image update in run mode“. This means that only the find position = green frame is displayed.
Further objects can be set using the same procedure described above. Select a new configuration in the section „Select configuration“, select the desired method of evaluation and make the settings described above. If several objects or configurations are defined, these can be selected or combined depending on application by means of IN2 or logical linking (see chapter 4.2.2).
Fig. 33 155-00529
Set the threshold value (required degree of conformity of the pattern detected with the pattern taught).
When all the necessary settings are com­plete, set Trigger mode back to „Triggered“ (if necessary) and change to Run mode by clicking on „Start“ in order to test the application. In stand-alone operation of the sensor (after parameters are set), it starts immediately in Run mode following a Reset.

Attention Output format for RS422 changed since firmware version V30!
Transfer protocol The data transfer via RS422 uses the following parameters: Baud rate: from 9600 to 115200 depending on setting Databit: 8 Parity: none Stop bit: 1
The following data strings are generated in the various evaluation methods and transmitted by the sensor via RS422 (MSB for all data bytes always = 0, only for start byte = 1):
The first 10 byte of all output strings for all sensors and all evaluation methods are identical. Starting with byte 11, the bytes corresponding to the actual evaluation method (= byte 8) of the “Winner config” (= byte 7) are following. With the serial data transfer via RS422 only the data of one configuration = “Winner config” are transferred. The “Winner config” is:
1. in case of single evaluation: the active / selected configuration, or,
2. in case of logical combination: the configuration with the higher degree of conformity = “Measured Value” (= byte 9) fullfilled configuration.

With the data transfer of the result data via Ethernet, contrary to the data transfer via RS422, all results of all used configurations are transferred one after the other following the 10 Byte header. The 10 byte header is always the start- sequence and contains common data and total results, and also in byte 2 the number of the used and transferred configurations. This value is the number of the following string- parts (one for each configuration used).

6.3 2- Byte values ( e.g. X- or Y- Position, for RS422 and Ethernet)
The X- and Y- coordinates, angles, etc. consist of 2 bytes. The MSB (Most Significant Bit) of all this bytes is never used (always = 0, to make sure in each case that the Start byte 0xAA is unique with it´s MSB = 1). That means that only 14 of the 16 bit can be used and the encoding must be like follows.

6.4 Commands to sensor via Ethernet Port 2005:
(Generally valid for all sensors)
1. Trigger:
In Run mode, a serial Trigger can be initiated with ASCII “tr” (Important: observe upper and lower case) in Triggered operating mode.
2. Switch to a new configuration or configuration group:
To switch configuration via RS422 in triggered Run mode, a two byte command is sent from the PLC to the sensor, which leads to the adjustment of the corresponding configuration. The format of the two byte command is like follows: Byte 1: e.g. 0x01 = 0000 0001 = configuration 1; e.g. 0x05 = 0000 0101 = configuration 5, and so on. Byte 2: comple mentary content to byte 1, but first bit (MSB) allways „0“ That means with byte 1 = 0x01 = 0000 0001 >> byte 2 = 0111 1110, or with byte 1 = 0x05 = 0000 0101 >> byte 2 = 0111 1010
Block transmission with Ethernet data transfer With data transfer via Ethernet it can happen that, especially with bigger data packages (e.g. when many configurations are used), the total data string is cut in single smaller data packages. This cannot be influenced by the FA 45 PC software, as this is controlled from the Ethernet protocoll depending on the load of the Ethernet connection. Thus the exact behaviour cannot be predicted. This should be considered with long timeouts in the software of the date receiving system (PLC or PC).

8.1 Operation with a process-control system (input IN2)
When in use with a process-control system, the following cases can be executed via input IN2:
For operation with a process-control system, set the „Function IN2“ in the window „Parameter active configuration“ as described below.
The configuration which is activated by „Reset“ or „Power on“ is the one which was activated most recently using the radio buttons in the window „Select configuration“ of the PC software.
• Enable case 1
• Teach temporary case 4
• Ld Conf 1 or 2 case 2
• Ld Conf 1 - 32 case 3
• Teach permanently case 4
For the signal sequence, see time diagram below (fig. 36); for the Pin-assignment of process interface (see chapter 8.7 table 2).
Description of cases 1 to 4 and their signal patterns
1: Rising edge at IN1 (Trigger) starts sensor (triggers exposure and processing).
Type ≥ 20 ms trigger-impulse length.
FA 45-300 only for case 2 und 3 available

2: Trigger starts falling edge at OUT2 (Ready 2), OUT2 stays low for duration of evaluation.
(Duration of evaluation is indicated in Run mode with Trigger mode = „Freerun“ in xx ms.
3: The rising edge at OUT2 (Ready 2) indicates (1) that processing is complete and (2) that the output OUT3
(= result of evaluation) and if necessary OUT4 is now effective (A) and can now be taken over by the control
system for further processing. 4: The next rising edge at the trigger input IN1 starts the next evaluation. 5: Period between rising edge at output OUT2 (Ready 2) and next rising edge at trigger input (IN1) = period
which can be used for configuration switchover (load configuration. 1 or 2; load configuration 1-32) or Teach
temporary/permanently by programmable input IN2 (function IN2). OUT1: Trigger of external illumination, high as long as picture is taken = shutter open

Case 1: IN2 = Enable
Parameter „Function IN2“ = „Enable“ and input IN2 = +UB (+24 V DC) = evaluation possible (enabled) Parameter „Function IN2“ = „Enable“ and input IN2 = open (0 V DC) = Standby mode (disabled). If the pa­rameter „Function IN2“ is set to „Enable“ the evaluation only takes place when an external trigger arrives at input IN2 +UB. If there is no +UB (= High = Enable) at input IN2, the FA 45 Vision Sensor does not execute evaluation because it is in Standby mode (= disabled).
Case 2: IN2 = Ld Conf 1 or 2 (load configuration 1 or 2)
Level switch (B) can take place in period „5“ (Ready 2 = high): A high level means evaluation according to config. 2, a low level, evaluation according to config. 1.
Case 3: IN2 = Ld Conf 1 - 32 (load configuration 1 - 32)
In period „5“ (Ready 2 = high) impulses are counted „C“ (type: 5 ms / 5 ms impulse / pause). The next evaluation takes place with the configuration corresponding to the number of impulses counted. The count always starts at 1, regardless of which configuration was active previously. The impulses must be genera ted bounce-free, preferably by a control system. The configuration switch can also be serial via the RS422 (see chapter 6.4 Commands to sensor).
Case 4: IN2 = Teach temporary or Teach permanently (only configuration 1 possible)
In period „5“ (Ready 2 = high), a high level can be applied at IN2 to trigger a temporary (saved in RAM only) or permanent Teach (saved in flash). This must be applied at least until the next rising edge at trigger input IN1. Then the new pattern or contour is taught in config. 1 and saved according to specification. The level must be reduced before the next rising edge at trigger input IN1, or another Teach is triggered. In this mode, only config. 1 is used and overwritten by the next Teach.
Since the evaluation is based on one image only, all the configurati­ons used with „Logic“ or „Ld conf x-y“ (case 2 or 3) must be taught using the setting rules opposite and then saved. The settings refer to config. 1 or the last configurati­on activated.
To adjust several parameters of se veral configurations identicelly in an easy way, use function „copy“.
Attention! The settings for function IN2=Ld Conf. 1 or 2 / IN2=LD Conf. 1-32 / IN2=Teach tempora­ry / IN2=Teach permanently are only available if the sensor is working in triggered mode. In free running mode this settings have no effect.

8.2 Specialities “Ld Conf 1 or 2 / 1 - 32”
When the functions „Ld Conf 1 or 2“ and „Ld Conf 1 - 32“ are used, the following settings must be made for all configurations used:
• Same selection for function IN2 (either „Ld Conf 1-2“ or „Ld Conf 1 - 32“)*
• „Teach shutter“ = „Manual“ (Off)
• Trigger mode = „Triggered“
For future use of saved configurations it is advisable to keep a list of which pattern is saved under which configuration number.
*1 When changing configurations, if a configuration is ever selected in which a different „Function IN2-mode“ = Load Configuration 1 - 32 is
activated, no further configuration can be selected by impulse sequence or level. That means, that from that point onwards it is not pos­sible to change to another configuration. For this reason, it must be ensured that only correctly parametered configurations are selected for the control system generating the impulse sequences. If an incorrect configuration is selected and the sensor no longer responds, a reset must be carried out (and if necessary the PC software closed and restarted). After re-starting the sensor, by Reset or Power on, the configuration which is active is the one which was activated last using the radio buttons in the window „Select configuration“ of the PC software.
Recommended procedure:
1. In configuration 1 set all desired parameters (e.g. shutter manual, function IN2 = Load Configuration 1 - 32, trigger mode = triggered etc.), teach pattern for configuration 1.
2. Select next configuration, change to Live mode, position next object and field of view, de-activate live mode and again set the above parameters as in configuration 1.
Repeat step 2 until all the desired patterns are recorded and saved. Then program the corresponding
impulse sequences in the control system.
Testing saved configurations
When all the desired configurations have been set as described above, a configuration can be selected using the radio buttons in the window „Select configuration“. With a start using the PC software or re-starting the sensor using Reset or Power On, the sensor starts with the last configuration selected. This can now be tested using various „good“ or „bad“ parts. Parameters such as Shutter of Threshold value can be adjusted if required. To test other confi gurations, select the radio button of the configuration concerned.

8.3 Specialities “Teach temporary” and “Teach permanently” (configuration 1 only)
When using the functions Teach temporary and Teach permanently, remember that when the external TEACH button is pressed which applies the High level to input IN2, the teach process can only be triggered by an additional rising edge at trigger input IN1. That means the following signal sequence:
1. High level at input IN2.
2. Rising edge at trigger input IN1.
Applications where the object is continuously transported (modes „Free-run“ or „Triggered“):
Apply to High level to input IN2 and halt for at least one image exposure. The new pattern for configuration 1 is saved and this new configuration 1 applies immediately. If the signal at input IN2 is halted for the duration of several image exposures, the last exposure is saved as the new configuration 1.
Applications with pulse cycles
Apply a High level at input IN2, either when the next reference object is being transported to the correct final position, thereby causing triggering, or when the reference object is in the correct position and triggering has already taken place, the trigger signal must be interrupted and re-applied. Only after this should the signal at Input IN2 fall to Low level. Interruption and re-application of the trigger signal can be achieved by installing an opener in the trigger circuit.
The save operation for permanent save (Teach permanently) may take up to 500 ms. During this period and in continuous-transport applications, parts are signalised as „bad“. When the function Teach Temp. is used, the new pattern is stored only in the RAM (this requires much less time). In this case, the pattern is no longer available after the FA 45 Vision Sensor is re-set and must therefore be re-taught.
8.4 Trigger mode
Triggered or Free run (automatically running self-trigger)
When „Triggered“ is selected, the sensor responds to an externally connected trigger sensor (+UB positive edge) or the button „Trigger“ in the computer software. When „Free run“ is set, the automatic self-trigger takes place as soon as the Run mode is activated.
Setting the trigger sensor
During operation of the FA 45 Vision Sensor, the position of an additional trigger sensor can be optimised. To do this, make the following settings to the PC software:
• Trigger mode = „Triggered“
• Image update in Run mode = „activated“
• Run Mode = „on“
When the process is in operation, the shift in the trigger sensor can be imitated directly in Run mode, thereby achie­ving and fixing the optimum position.
Note on „Triggered“ and „Free run“
In „Free-run“ mode, the image exposures and the evaluation are carried out at maximum frequency. One valid result is replaced by the next, i.e. it remains valid during the next exposure. This differs from „Triggered“ mode (see above), where the trigger signal causing the exposure sets the result output to 0. In „Free-run“ mode, only the mode „Enable/Disable“ is practical for function IN2. In this mode, the exposure in „Free run“ can be suspended and resumed by IN2. In each case, the last result remains valid during the interruptions.

Activating of In- / Outputextension slows down cyle-time slightly (20-30ms additionally depen­ding from evaluation method). Attention: When activating In- / Outputextension without serial connection to bus-coupler the cycle time slows down considerable (more than 500ms additio­nal).

In the starting menu of the operating system, click on „Execute“ and then „cmd“. In the window which appears, enter the command „Ping“ and then the set IP address:
e.g. ping 192.168.100.100
If all connections are correct, and the sensor and the PC address section are identical and the FA 45 Vision Sensor ready for operation, the command „Ping“ will produce a positive signal. If not, re-check your network configurations and consult you network administrator.
How do I avoid image dissipation and reflections (indicated by light-coloured areas of the image)?
Mount the FA 45 Vision Sensor diagonally to the optical axis and set the shutter manually ( Adjust the illumination of the object and avoid fluctuations in brightness, e.g. caused by ambient light.
I am getting dissipation of image and grey-scale for the same object. The grey-scale values at the edge of the illuminated image zone differ from image to image. What can I do?
Set the shutter to „Manual“ in the window „Parameter active configuration“ and set the slide so that there is no fluctuation in brightness. Generally speaking, a higher shutter value causes slight overexposure, but also produces a more consistent result.
Reflections occur when the alignment or position are changed slightly, e.g. an impression which varies in brightness.
How can I get a more consistent image? Mount the FA 45 Vision Sensor at an angle of 10°-15° or select another position for the pattern screen in which the reflections do not adversely affect pattern detection (see chapter 3.1).
