Field of view

Light spot

Vertical bars: Cuts of the individual lines, corresponds to the encoder resolution.

Blue square marks: Clear and contrast-rich pattern areas automatically selected by the sensor. Five areas have been selected in this example.

Function

The PS30 pattern sensor is an opto-electronic sensor that detects recurring patterns in a contactless manner.

The principle of operation is based on a line camera which constantly searches for con‐ trast differences and sharp edges in the print image (see figure). These distinct and unique areas in the pattern are automatically selected by the sensor during the teach-in process. If the image and contrast pattern stay the same, these points will be in exactly the same locations. The sensor evaluates grayscale information.

A taught-in image is used as a reference for the subsequent detection of a recurring contrast pattern. The print marks usually used for determining position are no longer necessary. When a pattern matching the reference pattern is identified, a switching out‐ put is initiated.

The PS30 pattern sensor requires for its operation information about the speed of the material, e.g., from encoder pulses, from a motor feedback system, or as a defined vari‐ able with a fixed value or a value updated via TCP/IP.

3.3 Operating modes

The PS30 pattern sensor can be operated in one of two modes:

1 Endless material 2 Single object

3.3.1 Endless material operating mode

When further processing endless materials such as film and paper webs to produce, for example, labels and packaging with a constant repeat length, exact determination of position is essential, e.g., to determine the cut position.

Typically, the target cut position is selected as the start point of the reference image, and the reference image is terminated before the end of the repeat length. The start point of the teach-in area is the position of the switching signal. A switching point offset can also be configured.

3.3.2 Single object operating mode

In this case the position is to be determined for repeating, separate objects with identi‐ cal patterns but not separated by a fixed distance. An object, or a section of the object is taught in as a reference.

The end of the teach-in area is used as the position for outputting the switching signal. A switching point offset can be defined.

■

A correct and complete cable shielding design is required for trouble-free data transmission.

■

The cable shield must be connected at both ends in the control cabinet and at the device. The cable shield of the pre-assembled cables is connected to the knurled nut of the male/female connector and thus also to a large area of the device hous‐ ing.

■

The cable shield in the control cabinet must be connected to a large area of the signal ground, see figure 17.

■

Appropriate measures must be taken to prevent equipotential bonding currents flowing through the cable shield.

■

During installation, pay attention to the different cable groups. The cables are grouped into the following four groups according to their sensitivity to interference or radiated emissions:

Group 1: Cables very sensitive to interference, such as analog measuring

cables Group 2: Cables sensitive to interference, such as sensor cables, communi‐

cation signals, bus signals Group 3: Cables which are a source of interference, such as control cables

for inductive loads, motor brakes Group 4: Cables which are powerful sources of interference, such as output

cables from frequency inverters, welding system power supplies, power cables

Cables in groups 1, 2 and 3, 4 must be crossed at right angles, see figure 14.

Cables in groups 1, 2 and 3, 4 must be routed in different cable channels or metallic separators must be used, see figure 15 and see figure 16. This applies particularly where cables of devices with a high level of radiated emis‐ sion, such as frequency converters, are laid parallel to sensor cables.

6.4 System configuration

The integration of the PS30 pattern sensor into the machine controller is shown in the following figure. The information on the movement of the material does not necessarily need to be provided by an encoder, the signal can of course also be created by a motor feedback system or the controller.

Alternatively, the speed of the material can be stored as a constant. This alternative is intended for applications with a constant or only slowly changing material speed.

The connection to an operating terminal is not essential, but is recommended to allow the visually-supported operation and diagnostic features to be used. If no connection to the HMI is provided, e.g., the device is operated via the display and operating elements on the pattern sensor itself, a PC can, where necessary, be connected via Ethernet for commissioning and/or service work, and to utilize the SOPASair configuration tool pro‐ vided on the web server.

For details of the menu structure, see "Menu structure", page 69.

Encoder settings

“Setup” is shown on the display during initial commissioning. During this setup, the device will prompt for the settings of the encoder used. The following parameters must be entered for the encoder:

“EncTyp” (encoder type)

•

“EncRes” (encoder resolution) → See the following section on calculating the

•

encoder resolution “EncDir” (encoder direction)

•

If you are not using an encoder, accept the factory settings for these parameters. Fur‐ ther settings can be configured in SOPASair (see "Operation via SOPASair", page 45).

NOTE

To ensure a correct signal, the rotational direction during the teach-in process must match the configured encoder direction.

Calculating the encoder resolution

Encoder

The graphic is provided as an example for the purposes of illustrating the encoder reso‐ lution. The roller geometry is not essential. The encoder resolution is the path covered by the material from encoder bar to encoder bar.

The encoder resolution (EncRes) can be calculated using the following formula:

S = U/n

S: Encoder resolution

U = External circumference of the roller

3. Position the light spot at a significant point on the print image. This point later becomes the start point. When using the Endless material operating mode, the start point corresponds to the switching point.

4. Apply an external voltage signal to the “ET” input. The teach-in process starts. The current point is saved as the start point.

5. Pass a maximum of one object length/format length through the light spot in the rotational direction of the encoder with positional accuracy. Note that to ensure a correct signal, the rotational direction during the teach-in process must match the configured encoder direction (EncDir).

6. Remove the external voltage signal from the “ET” input. The current point is saved as the end point. The stop point is the switching point when in Single object oper‐ ating mode. The teach-in process ends. The display shows the message “Busy”.

7. When using the Endless material operating mode, continue moving formats through the light spot until the message “Busy” disappears. When using the Single object operating mode, no further objects are required. The calculation of the teach-in image and the reference areas is performed while the message “Busy” is displayed. Once the teach-in process is complete, the quality of the teach-in process is displayed as a bar graph:

5. If necessary, change the value, see "Changing the value", page 32.

6. If necessary, repeat steps 2 to 6 for the “Area2” parameter.

Blanking out image areas

To blank out the entered image areas, you need to activate them using the “Apply?” parameter.

1. Select the “Apply” parameter under “Blank” Menu path: Status display→ SET → Monitr → Arrow pushbuttons → Teach → SET → StaLen → Arrow pushbuttons → Blank → SET → IDArea → SET → Area1 → Arrow pushbuttons → Apply?

2. Press the SET pushbutton. “Busy” is displayed. The sensor now recalculates the reference areas for the now-defined area.

3. When the recalculation is complete, the quality of the teach-in process is shown as a bar graph on the display:

If 3 or more bars are flashing: the teach-in with blanking areas was success‐

ful. If fewer than 3 bars are flashing: check whether the signal is switching cor‐

rectly. If the signal is not switching correctly, the blanking areas must be mod‐ ified.

4. When using the Endless material operating mode, the bar graph flashes for another 10 format lengths, then the display automatically changes to the “RUN” status display. The bar graph indicating the process quality no longer flashes. The RUN mode is displayed.

9 OPERATION VIA ETHERNET TCP/IP

9 Operation via Ethernet TCP/IP

Operation and integration variants

Configuration, operation and diagnostics of the PS30 pattern sensor can be performed using the Ethernet interface as an alternative to manual operation via the operating and display elements on the device. SICK AG offers the following tools for controlling and analyzing the PS30 via Ethernet TCP/IP:

1. Function blocks for integrating the PS30 via a machine controller in common PLC systems. The function blocks, including documentation, are available as down‐ loads on the SICK AG homepage (www.sick.com/PS30).

2. OPC DA for controlling the PS30 via the machine controller or HMI of the machine. The OPC DA profile, including documentation, is available as a download on the SICK AG homepage (www.sick.com/PS30).

3. SICK AG provides the SOPASair configuration and diagnostic software for the PS30 which can be accessed from a PC or HMI through the web server integrated in the sensor. If only specific operating and display elements are to be integrated in the user interface of the machine, these controls can be accessed and integrated by the user via specific addresses. Documentation of the interface for directly communicating with the device via the Ethernet TCP/IP interface is available at www.sick.com/PS30.

IP network configuration

The web server of the PS30 pattern sensor is accessed via the IP address of the sen‐ sor.

The PS30 supports UPnP. The sensor is automatically configured in an UPnP-capable system.

The DHCP function is deactivated on delivery. If DHCP is activated and a DHCP server is on the network, the PS30 obtains the IP address from that server.

If DHCP is deactivated, the configured static IP address is used (factory setting

192.168.100.100).

NOTE

The currently set IP address can be found on the device via the display and operating element in the “INFO” menu (see "Info menu", page 70).

NOTE

If you change the IP configuration of the sensor, you need to switch the supply voltage off and on again to activate the new setting.

OPERATION VIA SOPASAIR

Figure 38: Appearance of the Teach-in menu with blanking.

Blanked areas or teach-in areas

Recalculation of the reference areas

Selecting the checkbox using the cursor enables the blanking function; up to two areas (in Endless material operating mode) can then be blanked by moving the red markers using the cursor (see 1 in the figure 38). Areas that have been blanked are no longer analyzed. Blanking provides a way of ignoring varying elements, for example a best-before date. In Single object operating mode, this provides a way of restricting the area of the label to be analyzed. To activate the function, the reference areas must be recalculated by selecting the “Recalculate teach” field (see 2 in the figure 38). The reference areas are placed in the non-blanked area. This can reduce the teach-in quality.

2. Click the “Start teach” field to initiate the teach-in process. When using the Single object operating mode, move one object past the sensor. The teach image and ref‐ erence areas are then calculated. While this processing is in progress, this is indi‐ cated by the words “In progress” on the status bar as well as the color yellow. Once the teach-in process is complete, the Quality of Teach is displayed as a bar graph. When using the Endless material operating mode, continue moving the material past the sensor for the entire duration of the teach-in process, as indi‐ cated in the status bar. The repeat length is also calculated by the sensor.

3. The required switching point offset can also be entered directly as a numerical value in mm or it can be shifted to the left or right using the arrows displayed. In Endless material operating mode, the switching point offset can only be set start‐ ing from the end of the format. The value must be entered in mm. Instead of being at the end of the format, the switching point is then offset by the distance value entered. When running a startlength teach-in, the length of the teach-in area must be specified. Values between 15 mm and 1,000 mm are permitted.

4. Display of the teach-in image once the teach-in operation has been completed. The reference areas are represented by blue rectangles.

5. The bar graph displays the Quality of Teach and the resultant teach-in accuracy. If fewer than 3 bars are displayed, the color changes to red to indicate that the teach-in operation has failed.

6. Job assurance The data of the current job including the teach-in image, teach-in data (blanked areas and offset, for example), and the sensor configuration can be saved outside of the sensor. This data is saved in a .job file. After this, the format can be changed easily by selecting one of the .job files saved previously. If more than one file is selected initially when a file is loaded, the correct format can be selected from a preview screen.

1. The following two options are available for configuring external teach-in: a) Start-length teach-in b) Start-stop teach-in When using start-length teach-in, the desired length of the teach-in area must be configured. The teach-in can be started via the Teach-in menu in SOPASair, or by the machine controller by activating the ET input signal. When start-length teach-in is selected, the teach-in is automatically ended by the sensor after the configured length. When start-stop teach-in is selected, the teach-in process is automatically ended when the ET input signal is deactivated.

2. Automatic error handling can be activated when using the Endless material operat‐ ing mode. The sensor sets up to 6 switching outputs based on the calculated repeat length, even if the image could not be detected. This option is not available for the Single object operating mode.

3. The sensor resolution can be set to a value between 100 μm and 1,000 μm. The maximum possible object speed is determined by the resolution selected. The fol‐ lowing figure shows the relationship.

The encoder type set on the pattern sensor must match the bar width of the

•

encoder (see "Setting up the encoder", page 27, “EncRes” parameter). You can calculate the encoder resolution as described in the following section.

Calculating the encoder resolution

Figure 46: Calculating the encoder resolution

Encoder

The encoder resolution (EncRes) can be calculated using the following formula:

S = U/n

S: Encoder resolution

U = External circumference of the roller

n: Number of encoder bars in 360°

Checking the device function

You can verify that the device is functioning properly, and therefore wired and config‐ ured correctly, by means of the displayed encoder position (see "Monitoring menu",

page 42, “EncPos” parameter).

11.3.2 Faults caused by mounting or teaching-in

If the teach-in quality is too low, fewer than 3 bars flash in the display. In SOPASair, the Quality of teach-in graph shows less than 3 bars.

Check the individual items according to the following table.

Table 20: Faults caused by mounting or teaching-in

Cause/item to be checked Thorough check Troubleshooting

Material is highly glossy. Check the sensor distance

The sensor is not installed at the correct height. Sensor does not detect the printed area correctly. For example, a pattern area with significant label edge fea‐ tures is not detected, or the contrast is too low.

The taught-in pattern length is too long or too short. The taught-in pattern area must be larger than 15 mm and no greater than the object length in Single object operat‐ ing mode, or the repeated length in Endless material operating mode.

The material was not moved in front of the sensor correctly during the teach-in process.

The rotational direction during the teach-in process does not match the configured encoder direction. To ensure a correct signal, the rotational direction during the teach-in process must match the configured encoder direc‐ tion.

and angle, see "Mounting

requirements", page 17.

View and check the teach-in image using SOPASair, see

"Teach-in menu", page 46.

The messages “Wrn11” and “Wrn15” are displayed in the “Monitr” menu (ErrCod submenu). Check the teach-in length (see

"Monitoring menu", page 42,

“TeaLen” and “ActLen” para‐ meters).

View and check the teach-in image using SOPASair, see

"Analysis menu", page 51.

Check the rotational direction configured in the “EncPos” parameter in the “Monitr” menu. The numerical value must change. A “+” must be displayed before the numeri‐ cal value. The “+” indicates that the rotational direction during the teach-in process and the current encoder direc‐ tion match. A “-” indicates that the two directional rotations do not match. The Q switching output is LOW.

If necessary, do not use the prescribed distance and angle. For example, use a higher or lower sensor tilt angle.

Correct the sensor height, see

"Mounting requirements", page 17.

Rerun the teach-in and ensure the permissible range for the format length is adhered to.

Rerun the teach-in. Ensure that the material is not slanted, rip‐ pled, or moved in front of the sensor at the wrong angle dur‐ ing the teach-in process, see

"Mounting requirements", page 17.

Rerun the teach-in. Move the material in the other rotational direction.

TROUBLESHOOTING 11

Cause/item to be checked Thorough check Troubleshooting

Teach-in quality is poor. Reference positions are bunched together in one place instead of being distributed equally across the format length.

Are there enough dis‐

•

tinctive features in the teach-in pattern (suffi‐ cient contrast)? Is the sensor lens dirty

•

(contamination will result in reference posi‐ tions being positioned incorrectly)? Are some pixels overex‐

•

posed (are some areas of the sensor image very bright)?

If the pattern being used

•

does not have very many features, all of the refer‐ ence points will be dis‐ tributed across these few features. Poor distribution results in poor teach-in quality. The better the distribution, the more reli‐ able detection will be. Contamination of the

•

front screen/lens of the sensor can lead to refer‐ ence points being distrib‐ uted to positions where the teach-in material con‐ tains no features. Clean the sensor and repeat the teach-in process. Overexposure leads to

•

contrast variations in the affected parts of the image. These high con‐ trasts cause the sensor to locate its reference points in these positions. However, since these overexposures can never be reproduced, the detec‐ tion function will not be reliable. Check the tilt angle of the sensor to avoid direct reflections. Repeat the teach-in process.

11.3.3 Faults caused by the system

Check the individual items according to the following table.

Table 21: Faults caused by the system

Cause/item to be checked Example Troubleshooting

Material slippage is too great. Bad material transport, and

consequently the encoder sig‐ nal does not correspond to the path covered.

Material stretch is too great. Driving force is not uniform,

and the material is flexible.

Image features are not identi‐ cal. Details of the formats dif‐ fer.

Material with a large surface area is used and the back‐ ground is irregular, for example due to contamina‐ tion.

The system’s EMC radiated emission is too high.

11.3.4 Faults caused by the network connection and SOPASair

NOTE

We recommend having your network administrator connect the pattern sensor to the network.

Check the individual items according to the following table.

Table 22: Faults caused by the network connection and SOPASair

Cause/item to be checked Thorough check Troubleshooting

The sensor is connected to a network using a network cable.

The sensor IP configuration is not correct.

The network settings in SOPA‐ Sair are incorrect.

After entering the new IP address, the supply voltage of the sensor was not switched off, then back on (restart). The sensor does not adopt the new IP address until the sen‐ sor is restarted.

The IP configuration to the existing network is not com‐ patible.

Strong stray radiation in the vicinity, e.g., from a frequency converter.

The “Link” LED on the

•

sensor must light up (Ethernet connection OK). The “Act” LED on the

•

sensor must light up (data transfer).

Check the IP configuration on the sensor, see "Operation via

Ethernet TCP/IP", page 44.

Check the following informa‐ tion on the “IP communica‐ tion” page (menu path: Net‐ work assistant > “IP communi‐ cation” page), see "Monitoring

menu", page 46.

Check the IP configuration on the sensor, see "Ethernet con‐

figuration (Ethern) parameter", page 36.

Check the IP address,

•

subnet mask, and gate‐ way address settings,

see "Operation via Ether‐ net TCP/IP", page 44.

Use the “ping” diagnos‐

•

tics tool to check whether the sensor is correctly integrated in its IP network. The sensor must answer with an echo ICMP package (echo request). The “Activity” LED on the sensor must light up.

Check the wiring, see

•

"Notes on the electrical installation", page 20.

Always use shielded and

•

twisted cables for the sensor. For pre-assem‐ bled cables, see "Connec‐

tivity", page 66.

Switch the supply voltage off and back on after checking the IP configuration.

Contact your network adminis‐ trator.
