functions.
• Mounting and electrical installation are to be performed
only by qualied technicians.
• Electrical connections between the TiM and other devices
may only be made when there is no power to the system.
Otherwise, the devices may be damaged.
• Select and design conductor cross sections of the supply
cable from the customer's power system in accordance
with the applicable standards. If the supply voltage for the
TiM is not fed via the optional CDB730-001 connection
module, protect the TiM with an external 0.8 A delay-action
fuse at the start of the supply cable.
• All circuits connected to the TiM must be designed SELV
or PELV circuits. (SELV = Safety Extra Low Voltage, PELV =
Protective Extra Low Voltage).
• Use the device only under permitted environmental conditions (e.g. temperature, grounding potential,
see "Technical specications Page 5").
• Protect the TiM against moisture and dust when the cover
Intended use
The laser scanner TiM31x/TiM32x (referred to as the TiM
below) is an intelligent sensor for invisibly detecting objects
in areas (elds) to be monitored. It is designed for mobile
or stationary interior use in stand-alone operation, with a
scanning range of up to 4 m. The combined triggering of the
four switching inputs activates one of the 16 eld sets as an
evaluation case for performing eld monitoring.
With the TiM31x, each congurable eld set offers three
origin-oriented, partially overlapping elds of uniform shape,
but different sizes. Field sets with xed or freely denable
shapes are available.
With the TiM32x each eld set provides three congurable
elds.
The TiM signals detected eld infringements in relation to the
three elds through a combination of three switching outputs.
The TiM is available in both a PNP and an NPN variant. The
NPN variant is identied by S02 in the type code on the type
label.
The purpose of this instruction manual is to allow you to put
the TiM into operation quickly and easily using precongured

to the USB socket is open. To comply with the IP 65 enclosure rating during operation, the black rubber plate must
be ush-mounted on the housing.
• Opening the screws of the TiM housing will invalidate any
warranty claims against SICK AG.
• The TiM does not constitute personal protection
equipment in accordance with the respective applicable
safety standards for machines.
Commissioning and conguration
Step 1: Electrical installation
1. Connect the 15-pin D-sub-HD connecting cable plug
with the corresponding socket of the connection modul
CDB730-001.
– or –
Connect the 12-pin M12 connecting cable plug to a
customer-side connection box. To do this, make a connection box with a 12-pin M12 socket. The box serves as the
connection module for feeding the supply voltage, and for
the signal routing of the switching inputs and outputs (
see "Electrical Installation" chapter in the & Technical
Information (no. 8014318)).
2. Connect the TiM's Micro USB socket (behind the black rubber plate on the side) to a free USB socket (type A) on the
PC using a suitable shielded high-speed USB cable (e.g.
no. 6036106, 2 m). Do not extend the cable!
3. Supply power to the TiM.
Using the power supply unit it must be ensured that
the supply voltage does not drop below 8 V for longer
than 2 ms and never rises above 30 V.
Following successful initialization, the green LED lights up

1. Optional: mount the TiM to separately ordered mounting
accessories (mounting kit 2), see "Mounting" Chapter in
the & Technical Information (no. 8014318).
2. Otherwise, mount the two straight plates from the
enclosed mounting kit 1 on the TiM using two M3 screws.
Use the two blind-hole threads either on the underside or
back of the housing ( see "Device overview Page 4").
If the straight plates are not used, screw the screws
provided by the customer max. 2.8 mm into the thread.
3. Mount the TiM on a prepared bracket.
The device should be as free from vibration as possible
during operation.
4. Align the 90° axis of the TiM's scanning angle with the
center of the area to be monitored. The
lid of the optical hood serves as a bearing alignment aid
( see "Device overview Page 4").

a. Conguration without PC
Here, the TiM provides two options:
• Using one of 16 default eld sets, each with 3 predened
elds having the same eld shape, but different sizes
• Teach-in of the surrounding contour to automatically
generate the outer eld with any shape, including more
complex shapes, and to deduce the two inner elds.
The eld sets are organized by groups into segmented eld
shapes. The shapes can be modied, with the default being a
rectangle. In the factory setting, the 3 origin-oriented elds of

The limits of the outer eld 3 and the middle eld 2 relate
to the limits of the inner eld 1. The relationship between
the limits is xed as a percentage for the eld sets 1 to 4;
the limits of eld 2 and eld 3 can be adjusted freely for the
eld sets 5 to 16 if needed, using the SOPAS conguration
software. The following rules apply: Field 1 may not be larger
than eld 2, and eld 2 may not be larger than eld 3; neither
may elds be congruent.

Preparing for teach-in
In general, the function button and both LEDs on the device
are used for teach-in.
• Remove all objects that will not permanently be in the eld
of view in monitoring mode later on.
• Distance yourself sufciently from the TiM during the
advance warning phase of the teach-in, so that you are not
detected as part of the eld contour.
Teaching-in the eld contour
The TiM uses eld set 1 (segmented, initial shape: rectangle)
to adjust the eld shape and size to the surrounding contour
that was detected. The switching inputs may not be supplied
with current during this process.
The TiM forms the outer eld 3 from the surrounding contour
with a negative offset of 100 mm, and deduces
the limits of the two inner elds from this, so that eld
2 = eld 1 plus 25% and eld 3 = eld 1 plus 52%.
• The eld shape to be formed can be dened by pacing out
the limits during the teach-in phase. Do not wear black
clothing during this process!

In the event of eld infringement

b. Conguration with PC
The SOPAS conguration software is used by default to adjust
the 3 elds of a eld set and other TiM parameters to the ap-
plication and to perform diagnostics in the event of an error.
If the eld shape of the eld set 1 has been taught in without
a PC using the function button, SOPAS is generally used to
continue the conguration.
This includes setting the eld shapes/sizes and any other
non-teachable eld sets based on the default setting, the
response time of the elds, the blanking size, and the holding
time of the assigned switching outputs OUT 1 ... OUT 3.
The blanking size is the cross-section of the object after
which an object not previously in the viewing area of the TiM
leads to a eld infringement. Like the response time and the
holding time, the blanking size applies to all eld sets and
their elds.
Installing and launching the SOPAS conguration software
1. Download and install on the PC the software from the website "www.mysick.com/en/SOPAS_ET", SOPAS ET software
type. In this case, select the "Complete" option as selected
by the installation wizard. Administrator rights may be
required on the PC to install the software.
2. Start the "Single Device" program option after completing
the installation.
Path: Start > Programs > SICK > SOPAS Engineering
Tool > SOPAS (Single Device).
SOPAS will automatically install the necessary USB driver
the rst time it detects a connected TiM. It may then be
necessary to restart the PC.
3. Establish a connection between SOPAS and TiM via the
automatically opened assistant. Select the TiM from the
list of available devices.
SOPAS program window (single device)
Field monitor display window
• In the Field monitor window, SOPAS displays the eld
contour (scan line) currently seen by the device through
ambient reection in blue. If the 4 switching inputs are
not supplied with current, SOPAS also displays the three
evaluation elds (segmented rectangles) for the eld set
1 according to the TiM's default setting, or the eld shape
generated using the teach-in function along with its dimensions, the status of the switching inputs/outputs, and the
position of the mouse pointer.
• SOPAS displays the elds as green if no eld infringement
is present. If objects of a certain size and duration
( see "Default settings TiM Page 3") are
located in the part of the visual range that is covered by
elds, the TiM will recognize this as a eld infringement.
SOPAS displays this separately in yellow for the individual
elds.
