Operating Instructions

CLV 480 Bar Code Scanner

Installation procedure (overview)

CLV in stand-alone configuration (without heater)

Start/stop mode: Reading trigger via “Sensor“ switching input (default setting)

1. Check the delivery to make sure that none of the components is missing.

2. Mount the CLV at the reading station and align it with the object carrying the bar code.

3. Mount the AMV/S 60 Connection Module.

4. Connect the CLV to the AMV/S 60 Connection Module using two cables no. 2 020 302. Alternatively, connect the device to the AMV/S 60 via the external parameter memory no. 2 020 307.

5. Mount the sensor for starting/stopping the reading pulse.

6. Connect the reading pulse sensor to the "Sensor" switching input in the AMV/S 60.

7. Connect the host to the host interface in the AMV/S 60. Adapt the AMV/S 60 to the host interface type of the CLV.

8. Switch on the power supply to the AMV/S 60. The "Device Ready" LED lights up after the CLV has started.

CLV with external empty parameter memory connected:

After the CLV has started, it immediately copies the internal parameter set to the external parameter memory if the memory is empty. Then the "Device Ready“ LED lights up.

Line scanner with oscillating mirror:

In the default setting, the CLV deflects the scan line around the position CW = 50 with a frequency of 1 Hz and an oscillating amplitude of max. ±20° (±40 CW).

9. Switch on your PC and start Windows

10. Install the "CLV-Setup" software and the online CLV-Setup Help from the CD-ROM ("Manuals & Software") on your PC.

11. Connect the PC to the terminal interface of the CLV. To do so, connect a 3-core RS 232 data cable (null modem cable), e. g. no. 2 014 054 to the "Service plug" in the AMV/S 60.

12. Start the "CLV-Setup" program. CLV-Setup establishes communication with the CLV and uploads the parameter set. The parameters are then displayed on the tabs.

13. Carry out a test read using test bar codes (clock the CLV accordingly). Display the reading result in the Terminal Emulator window of the "CLV-Setup" program.

14. Configure the CLV for the application using the settings on the tabs in CLV-Setup. Copy (download) the modified parameter set to the CLV temporarily. Do not switch off the power to the AMV/S 60 (CLV)!

15. Test the application under realistic conditions.

16. Check whether the data is transmitted correctly between the CLV and host.

17. If necessary, correct and optimize the parameter values. Copy (download) the parameter set permanently to the CLV.

CLV with external parameter memory connected:

Copy the modified parameter set to the external parameter memory when CLV-Setup asks you for confirmation.

18. Save the parameter set as a configuration file "*.scl" in the "CLV-Setup" program.

(minimum requirement: Windows 95TM).

The CLV can then be operated with the application-specific settings.

Chapter 2 Operating Instructions

Safety information

CLV 480 Bar Code Scanner

2.3 General safety instructions and protection measures

¾ Always read the general safety instructions carefully and observe them at all times.

Please also observe the warnings in front of the operating instructions in each chapter of this document.

Shock hazard

Depending on the type of device, the AMS 60 Connection Module (accessory) for the CLV is connected to a mains voltage of 230 V AC 50 Hz or 115 V AC 50/60 Hz.

¾ When working with electrical equipment, always follow the relevant safety specifications.

Laser beam can cause blindness The CLV uses a class 2 red-light laser. Looking directly at the laser beam can seriously

damage your eyesight.

The entire glass window acts as a laser outlet aperture.

Caution – use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

¾ As with sunlight, never look directly into the laser beam.

¾ Do not direct the laser beam at other persons.

¾ Mount and align the CLV in such a way to prevent the laser beam reflecting off mirrored

surfaces.

¾ Do not open the housing.

(Opening the housing does not deactivate the laser diode).

¾ Observe the laser protection specifications (latest version).

Laser power

The laser operates at a wave length of λ = 650 nm (visible red light). The power output at the reading window is max. 2.8 mW. The emitted radiation is not dangerous to human skin. The product is classified in laser class 2 (laser class II) in accordance with EN 60825-1, IEC 60825-1, and 21 CFR 1040.10 (for publication date, see the warning sign on the device)

Laser warnings

The laser warning symbols (Fig. 2-1) can be found on the CLV at the following locations:

• The laser warning symbol on line scanners is positioned beside the reading window on

the front side of the device. The laser warning in GB English/US English is located on the side containing the electrical connections The additional laser warnings in English applicable to the USA are positioned beside the reading window on the front side of the device and at the bottom.

• The laser warning symbol on line scanners with oscillating mirror is located above the

reading window, on the cover of the mirror. The laser warning in GB English/US English is located on the side containing the electrical connections The additional laser warnings in English applicable to the USA are positioned on the cover of the mirror and on the front side of the decive at the bottom.

Fig. 2-1: Laser warning labels on the CLV

Note A set of laser warnings in German/US English and French/US English is included in the

delivery scope. The GB English/US English warnings can be pasted over with these if necessary.

If the CLV is installed in a machine/panel with the result that the laser warning labels are no longer visible, additional warnings (not included in the scope of delivery) must be provided on the machine beside the emergence aperture of the laser beam.

Internal protective circuits

The CLV is equipped with monitoring circuits that deactivate the laser diode in the event of a malfunction. No maintenance required to keep this product in compliance with laser class II.

Activation and deactivation of the laser diode is controlled by the reading pulse trigger.

A timer (laser timeout) automatically deactivates the laser diode in Reading mode ("Sensor input" and "Serial interface" trigger mode) if the reading interval has not ended after 10

minutes (default setting). However, it does not end the reading interval. In this case, the

CLV outputs the message:

"Laser safety timeout"

on the terminal interface. The reading interval must be terminated by resetting the trigger signal. The laser diode is activated again by the next reading trigger.

The laser timeout can be set in the range of 1 min to 25 h or deactivated (see Table 6-17,

Page 6-23)

In the Percentage Evaluation mode, Adjusting mode and Show CP-limits as well as in the Free-running Reading mode the laser diode is constantly activated.

CLV 480 Bar Code Scanner

3.2 Method of operation

The CLV first scans the bar code with a scan line and then decodes it. In stand-alone configuration, the data is forwarded via the serial host interface (main data interface) to a host/ PC for further processing, or via the CAN interface to the OTS 400 Omni Tracking System. An overview of the CLV functions is provided in

Fig. 3-2: Block diagram: CLV functions

The CLV is equipped with two decoders:

• The SMART decoder (SICK Modular Advanced Recognition Technology) for decoding bar codes with small code height, bar codes that are dirty or damaged, as well as bar codes that are tilted excessively (azimuth angle)

• The tried-and-tested standard decoder of the CLV series

The CLV derives useful diagnosis data from the reading process and can transfer it to also the host. It also records operating data that can be interrogated at any time. The quality of the read can be checked in percentage evaluation mode.

To start the reading process when an object is located in the reading field, the CLV requires a suitable trigger. This opens an internal time window ("reading interval") in the CLV. In the default configuration, this trigger is supplied by an external reading pulse sensor. Alternative trigger sources include Free-running mode or a command via the host interface (for more complex applications: OTS trigger).

The current operating status is indicated by four LEDs.

If the trigger is supplied externally, the "Sensor" switching input instructs the CLV to start the reading process. The five "IN 0" to "IN 4" switching inputs switch the focus position in response to certain events, as an alternative to the autofocus function. The "IN "IN

4” inputs can also be assigned special functions. The four "Result 1" to "Result 4"

3" and

switching outputs can be assigned to different functions for displaying the result status and also control external devices, such as a PLC.

The CLV is operated and configured via the serial terminal interface (auxiliary interface) using the "CLV-Setup" software or via the host interface/terminal interface using command strings.

System and error messages help you to configure the device and to locate the source of errors during startup and reading mode.

3.2.1 Event-controlled dynamic focus control

The CLV can switch its focus position in response to certain events and thus dynamically cover a large reading range. A maximum of eight reading ranges can be defined as distance configurations for this purpose and approached consecutively in reading mode (see

Fig. 3-3).

Reading distance

The switch over takes place in response to changes in the object distance (with reads from above: object height detection). The trigger source for the switchover can be:

• A signal combination at the "IN 0" to "IN 4" switching inputs, a command on the host

interface/terminal interface or the integrated timer (e.

g. for search mode). Additional in the case of the line scanner with oscillating mirror also the oscillating mirror reversal points. The distance configurations are assigned to the switchover sequence by means of a programmable assignment table.

• In combination with the OTS 400 Omni Tracking System:

Alternatively the object height information from the OTS 400 or any other CLV via the CAN bus.

3.2.2 Reading modes

Start/stop mode

During the reading process, only one object is located in the reading field in start/stop mode, i. e. all read bar codes can be clearly assigned to the object. As default, two reading pulse sensors at the beginning and at the end of the reading field control the starting and stopping of the reading process (

Fig. 3-4). The size of the reading field is determined by the

distance between the two sensors. Alternatively, the reading process can be controlled with command strings via the data interface or can be left free running. The CLV either outputs the reading result at the end of the reading pulse (the back edge of the object has left the end of reading field) or already during the reading pulse as a result of predefined (parame trized) conditions. To separate bar codes of the same type with identical contents, an incremental encoder must be connected to the CLV.

Chapter 3 Operating Instructions

Product description

CLV 480 Bar Code Scanner

In object polling mode, the CLV automatically detects the beginning and the end of the object located in the reading field without any help of external sensors. The minimum temporal distance between two consecutive objetcs must not fall below 70 ms when the objects are moved on the conveyor belt.

Tracking mode (in combination with the OTS 400 Omni Tracking System)

In tracking mode with the OTS 400 Omni Tracking System, max. 20 objects can simultaneously be located in the reading field (following each other), i. e. the CLV must be able to clearly assign the bar codes to the objects (Fig. 3-4). As default, a reading pulse sensor at the beginning of the reading field controls the starting of the reading process. The end of the reading field is determined by the parametrized object release point in the OTC 400 Omni Tracking Controller. In this way, the size of the reading field is clearly determined.

In order to track the transport of the objects in the reading field, a regularly-timed pulse is required. This is generated by an external incremental encoder for the OTC 400 which re gularly supplies a pulse at least every 10 mm (0.39 in) of movement in conveying direction. As a result, the the distance between the reading pulse sensor and the object release point is clearly time-mapped in the CLV. Fluctuations when approaching the conveyor or decrea ses in speed due to heavy load with numerous conveyor obejcts are also recorded. An internal clock in the CLV also allows operation at a constant conveyor speed. A gap of at least 50 mm (1.97 in) is necessary for the clear separation of consecutive objects. The reading result for an object is output by the OTC 400 after the back edge of the object passes the object release point. Alternatively, the reading process can be started with a command strings via the data interface.

3.2.3 Scan procedure variants

Line scanner (standard device)

Generates a scan line; due to the V-principle of the beam generation, the reading field height (the useful length of the scan line for evaluation purposes) is dependent on the reading distance.

Line scanner with oscillating mirror

The oscillating mirror also deflects the scan line perpendicularly to the scan direction at both sides around the neutral position with a low oscillating frequency. As a result, the CLV can also scan larger areas for bar codes. Due to the V-principle of beam generation, the reading field height is dependent on the reading distance.
