Correct use
The TiM55x/TiM56x laser scanner (referred to as the TiM
below) is intended for use as a non-contact measurement
sensor in standalone operation. It measures radial distances
within a at surface (circle segment) depending on reectivity.
The TiM displays the measured values of the recorded environment contour of its scanning angle of 270° over the Ether-
net or USB interface for further processing as either a one-off
or continuously on request. This requires a corresponding
driver to be created by the user.
The device is designed for portable or stationary use indoors
or outdoors in standalone operation, with a scanning range
of up to 10 m.
The purpose of this instruction manual is to allow you to put
the TiM into operation quickly and easily and to achieve the
rst measured value outputs and the rst detection results.
Further information on the mechanical and electrical instal-
lation as well as on the measured value output is available in
the & Technical Information (Nr. 8015883). This information
is available for download on the TiM product page (www.sick.
com/tim5xx).
The TiM is certied to IEC/EN/UL/CSA 61010-1:2007. These
operating instructions may contain passages of text in a
foreign language.
Safety information
• Read these instructions before commissioning the TiM
in order to familiarize yourself with the device and its
functions.
• The TiM corresponds to laser class 1 ( see “Laser radia-
tion! Page 3”).
• Mounting and electrical installation are to be performed
only by qualied technicians.
• Electrical connections between the TiM and other devices
may only be created or xed when there is no power to the
system. Otherwise, the devices may be damaged.
• Conducting cross sections of the supply cable from the
customer's power system should be designed in accordance with the applicable standards. Secure the TiM with
an external 0.8 A slow-blow fuse at the start of the supply
cable, from the perspective of the supply voltage.
• 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 data Page 3”).
• Turn the swivel connector unit with the electrical connections max 180° from end position to end position.
• Protect the TiM against moisture and dust when the cover
to the USB socket is open. The black plastic cover must
be screwed ush in order to comply with enclosure rating
IP 67 in operation.
• Opening the screws of the TiM housing will invalidate any
warranty claims against SICK AG.
• The TiM does not constitute personal protection equip-
ment in accordance with the respective applicable safety
standards for machines.
Commissioning and conguration
Step 1: Electrical installation
1. Connect the communication interface of the TiM to the
PC (Ethernet or USB; recommended Ethernet, 4-pin M12
outlet).
> If using a USB, connect the TiM's Micro USB port (behind
the black plastic cover on the side) to a free USB port (type
A) on the PC using a suitable shielded high-speed USB
cable (e.g. no. 6036106, 2 m).
The USB cable may not exceed 3 m in length!
When operating the USB interface, ESD/EMC interferences can lead to an interruption of the USB connection.
To continue with the data transfer, disconnect the USB
cable from the TiMand reattach it to establish contact. To
re-establish communication between TiM and PC in the
SOPAS communication software, select
o online .

2. Turn on and start the PC.
Provide power to the TiM (5-pin M12 plug).
Using the power supply unit it must be ensured that the
CommuniCation >
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

Step 2: Mounting and alignment
NOTE
During installation make sure there is no reective surface
behind the reference target see “Device overview Page
â.
3”, point
1. Optional: mount the TiM to separately ordered mounting
accessories (mounting kit 2), see "Mounting" Chapter in
the & Technical Information (Nr. 8015883).
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 3”).
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 shock and vibration as
possible during operation (e.g. using vibration dampers).
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 3”, point
marking on the
ã).

Step 3: Commissioning/Conguration
a. Installing and launching the SOPAS congura-
tion software
The SOPAS conguration software is used as standard to
display the surrounding contour (measuring line) recorded
by the TiM, as well as diagnostic information in the event of
an error.
1. Download and install on the PC the software from the
website “www.sick.com/SOPAS_ET“, software type SOPAS
ET. 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 "SOPAS" program option after completing the
installation.
Path: Start > Programs > SICK > SOPAS Engineering Tool
> SOPAS.
3. Establish communication between SOPAS and TiM via the
wizard that has started automatically: Select
new deviCe.
4. Follow the steps in the Connection Wizard until the Found
deviCes window.
5. Select the appropriate TiM from the list of available
devices:
• Use TiM on port 2111 to congure the device.
• Use TiM on port 2112 to view only measurement data.
Default IP address of the TiM:
6. Assign the required IP address/subnet mask to the TiM
automatiCally or manually. The IP address/subnet
via
mask should correspond to the address space of the later
application.
Finish to quit the Connection Wizard.
7. Click
SOPAS ET establishes communication with the TiM, loads
its current device description (parameters), and displays it
in the navigation tree.

b. Output of measured values
If the TiM receives one of the two following commands by telegram over the Ethernet or USB interface it will start the output
of measured values in real time over these data interfaces.
The detailed construction of the output telegram as well
as the ow of requests and outputs is described in the
"Measured value output“ in the & Technical Information
(Nr. 8015883).

button.
in the dialog window and establish communication with
the TiM over the Ethernet or USB interface.
3. Enter one of the two telegrams in the "Send telegram"
input line as they appear (automatically framed by STX and
ETX when sending in the default setting). Pay attention to
blank characters in the string.
4. Use the
button to transfer the telegram to the TiM.
The TiM responds by providing the data as a one-off or
continuously in the display area of the terminal emulator.
Data output format of the measured values
The data output format per scan is comprised of the
measured values (radial distance, RSSI), device and status
information and time stamp.
In the default settings, the distance is output as a measured
value (in mm).
In order to output remission values in the telegram, select the
Rssi checkbox.
To display the remission values in the scan as well, select the
Rssi... checkbox.
Output range of the measured values
The TiM scans an angle range of 270°(-45° to 225°) and
outputs 271 measured values per scan in the default setting.
The angle range for which measured values can be output
can be set via
output RanGe (TiM55x: resolution 1°, TiM56x:
resolution 0.33°).
