The tasks of the "TEMPAR - Automatic Temperature Monitor" are:
Product description
– To classify measuring rooms in accordance with VDI/VDE 2627.
– To monitor and trace compliance with the machine specification.
This is necessary to obtain correct measuring results in co-ordinate
measurement systems. During calibration it must be possible to
document that the temperature does not deviate from the temperature
during measurement, as well as demonstrating that the measuring
machines are operated within the limits specified by the manufacturer.
Monitoring the temperatures of the workpiece and measuring room is
not only useful from a technical standpoint, but also mandatory in terms
of traceability requirements (e.g. ISO 10012-1, QS 9000, VDA 6.1, ISO TS
16949, FDA, HACCP/LMHV).
The VDI/VDE guideline 2627 requires at least nine temperature sensors
for this task. These sensors are positioned at least 0.5
walls in the measuring room - one sensor in the centre of the room and
two sensors in each of the four corners of the room at two different
heights. Additional temperature sensors can be added to these nine,
which is particularly useful for larger measuring rooms.
Alongside the temperature, other physical quantities can also be
measured.
m away from the
The sensors can be attached to the ceiling or to the wall. Alternatively,
they can also be erected with the mobile measuring stand.
Fig. 2:Temperature monitor with mobile measuring stand
The electronic sensor control saves the calibration data and adjustment
values of the sensor and converts the measured value from analogue to
digital. The console reads the measured value from the sensor and
processes it.
The default configuration envisages 9 temperature sensors. However this
can be supplemented with additional temperature sensors but also
sensors for other physical quantities.
The display of measured values makes it quick and easy to see whether
the environmental conditions lie within or outside of the valid range for
the measurement. The console is operated via the touchscreen monitor.
Alternative the system can be operated with any web-enabled terminal
device.
Note that, while the TEMPAR system displays valid values for the
measuring room, the conditions in the measuring range of the
coordinate measuring machine and the workpiece temperature are not
taken into account. These conditions must be recorded and evaluated
separately.
The calibration requires that one of the temperature sensors is calibrated
by a certified DAkkS laboratory. The other eight sensors are
factory-calibrated, with the DAkkS-calibrated sensor serving as a
reference. The optional sensors for air pressure, humidity and airflow can
also be calibrated at the factory or by DAkkS. All sensors are shipped with
a calibration certificate.
The TEMPAR console enables measured values from the sensors to be
recorded, displayed and saved depending on the configuration level. It
displays the history of the measured valves and indicates when they
exceed or fall below the limit values.

console. The USB stick should be empty, as otherwise any data on the
stick will be overwritten.
Alternatively a backup can be stored to a shared network resource
(Network Share) which can be accessed from the TEMPAR console. To do
so first create a folder on a Windows system and enable for network
(shared) access. Then enter the corresponding information in the area
"Backup to Network Share”. Click "Connect to network share" to create
the connection. To start the backup click on "Start network backup”.
The TEMPAR system can be linked to PiWeb in the "External DB” step.
There are two possibilities for linking to PiWeb. The first possibility is a
data exchange by transferring the file to a network share and an import
into PiWeb using PiWeb auto importer. The second possibility is direct
communication with the PiWeb server via a REST interface.
PiWeb network share must be used in combination with the PiWeb auto
importer. Follow the following steps to create the connection between
TEMPAR and PiWeb:
– Ensure that the PiWeb PC can be reached from the TEMPAR system via
the network. If a firewall exists between the PiWeb PC and the
TEMPAR system, it must be ensured that the necessary ports are open
(amongst others Port
– Create a folder on the PiWeb PC or select an existing folder, e.g.
C:\Temp\ImportRoot.
– Enable access to this folder for all users (alternatively only for those
users that have access to the PiWeb PC). After the folder has been
enabled, this must be checked under Control Panel/Administrative
Tools/Computer Management/Shared Folders/Shares (alternatively via
Start/Run/ enter "compmgmt.msc" and press OK).

Fig. 33: Windows enable
– Check “Network share active” on the TEMPAR user interface.
– Enter the IP address of the PC on which the enabled folder was
created (e.g. 192.168.0.1).
– Enter the name of the folder that was enabled. Do not enter a file
path here, rather just the folder name. The folder name entered here
must match that in the Computer Management of the PiWeb PC.
However, you can create subfolders in the enabled folder, the path of
which, relating to the enabled folder, is entered here.
– The files with the measured values are created in the enabled folder
according to the "Interval measuring data (ms)”
Operation as “Standard” user group") in the enabled folder. Naming
takes place according to the following template:
“PiWebData_YYYYMMDD-hhmmss_<Seriennummer Konsole/
Messzone>_ABCD.zcsv”.
– The PiWeb Auto Importer reads the measuring data files automatically
according to the set test interval from the specified folder.
Subsequently, these files are deleted or moved to the folder for import
backup.
To export all data from the TEMPAR system, activate “Transfer all data to
PiWeb”. Consequently all data are sequentially exported in large zcsv
files. Dependent on the number of data sets, this can take several hours.
PiWeb REST interface:
For direct communication with the PiWeb server, it must be ensured that
TEMPAR can reach the PiWeb PC/PiWeb server via the network. If a
firewall exists between the PiWeb PC and the TEMPAR system, it must be
ensured that the port that was configured in PiWeb server is open (e.g.
port
8080). To establish the connection, the necessary information must
be entered in the "PiWeb REST interface”. Run the connection status test
if there are connection problems. If a sub-folder is to be created in PiWeb
for the corresponding console / cockpit, this can be set under "Create
subcomponent of measuring room”.
(See chapter "3.2
The PiWeb REST interface can be used with a PiWeb servers of
version >= 6.2.
To do so, follow the following steps:
– Activate PiWeb REST interface on the PiWeb server.
– Select Activate PiWeb REST interface.
– Enter the IP address of the PiWeb server.
– Enter the port of the PiWeb server (default: 8080).
– If TEMPAR is successfully connected to the PiWeb server, then after a
short time the PiWeb server version must be displayed in TEMPAR (if
necessary, the TEMPAR page must be reloaded, e.g. by switching
between tabs).
– After a brief period, data are created in the PiWeb database.
To export TEMPAR data to a Q-DAS system, proceed as follows:
– Ensure that the Q-DAS PC can be reached from the TEMPAR system via
the network. If a firewall exists between the Q-DAS PC and the
TEMPAR system, it must be ensured that the necessary ports are open.
– Create a folder on the Q-DAS PC or select an existing folder. After the
folder has been enabled, this must be checked under Control
Panel/Administrative Tools/Computer Management/Shared
Folders/Shares (alternatively via Start/Run/ enter "compmgmt.msc"
and press OK).
– Enable access to this folder for all users (alternatively only for those
users that have access to the Q-DAS PC).
– Activate connection to network share.
– Enter the Windows user who has access to the Q-DAS PC / enabled
folder.
– Enter the password of the Windows user.
– Enter the IP address of the PC on which the enabled folder was
created (e.g. 192.168.0.1).
– The files with the measured values are created in the enabled folder
according to the "Interval measuring data (ms)”
Operation as “Standard” user group") in the enabled folder. Naming
takes place according to the following template:
“Q-DAS_<Seriennummer
Konsole/Messzone>_YYYYMMDD-hhmmss.DFQ”.
A connection to a TEMPAR cockpit can be made under "Cockpit".
– Enter the IP address of the TEMPAR cockpit with which the connection
is to be made, under "Cockpit IP”.

Gliding window: The highest and lowest measured value in a time
window are used in the calculation.
Fixed interval measuring points: Only the current measured values and
the measured values recorded at the beginning of the interval are
used in the calculation.
–A time delay can be set in the area "Time constants" after which a
temperature change in the sensor is indicated. In this way a time
constant can be set in the sensors, that corresponds to a measuring or
testing instrument (e.g. coordinate measuring machine 25 minutes =
1500 seconds). If for example a time constant of 1500 seconds is set,
a temperature change of 1 K would only cause a change to the
measuring result of 1 K after 1500 seconds.
3.2.19"Configuration > Measuring Room > Calibration"
menu
Fig. 39: "Calibration" menu
The calibration data shown here refers to the calibration date saved in the
sensors.
The number of days until the next calibration can be entered under
"Calibration interval”. The number of days until the next calibration of
sensors is shown on the gradient, measuring room, sensor, history and
system page.
Also the number of days before the calibration runs out at which point a
warning and an alarm are issued can be specified here.
3.2.20"Configuration > Measuring Room > Tolerance
Values" menu
Fig. 40: "Tolerance Values" menu
For the values temperature, air humidity, air pressure and airflow the
respective upper and lower limits can be entered here. If these tolerance
values are exceeded or undershot, the font colour of the displayed values
changes from black to orange and a warning is generated and displayed
in the EventLog.
3.2.21"Configuration > Measuring Room > History"
menu
Fig. 41: "History” menu
Here, the Y-axis sections of the charts in the main "History" tab are set for
chart, temperature, air humidity, air pressure and air flow. The Y-axis
sections or all other charts are fixed or can be defined automatically by
the system using "Automatic Scaling".
3.2.22"Configuration > Measuring Room >
Classification" menu
Fig. 42: "Classification" menu
The "Classification" tab specifies the limit values for measuring room
monitoring (acc. to VDI/VDE guideline 2627). Here, it is only possible to
set the basic temperature for measuring room quality classes 2 to 4. In
measuring room quality class 1, the basic temperature is defined in the
guideline. All other values are available only for overview.
To use the special measuring room, it is first necessary to activate the
checkbox at the top left for "Use only special room calculation (Class S):".
This activates the special measuring room area. The values underlined in
blue can now be changed. While the special measuring room is active, a
check is only performed as to whether the measuring room is within the
specification for the special measuring room or not. Measuring room
classes 1 to 4 are not considered.
For the "Viewer" user or “Viewer” user group, the scope of the console is
limited so that settings cannot be configured. Consequently the
“Configuration” menu item is not available. The console only shows
values and information.
The description of the existing views can be taken from the Operation as
"Standard” user section.
3.4Switching off
To switch the console off, use the "Shutdown" button at the bottom of
the console, which causes the console to switch off automatically. This
button is only displayed for operation via the touchscreen. For security
reasons, the “End” button is not displayed for the “Viewer” user/user
group.
Alternatively the console can also be switched off by pressing the “On/Off
button”
Note:
The console must be switched off and disconnected from the power
source for installation or maintenance work.
The temperature sensor calibration cycle must be followed. The
recommended service life for the calibrated temperature sensors is one
year. After a calibration cycle ends, the temperature sensors should be
removed and replaced with newly calibrated ones:
1. Deactivate sensor in Configuration > Measuring Room > Sensors.
2. Unscrew the sensor or the sensor electronics from the sensor network.
3. Place the removed temperature sensors individually in shock-proof
packaging and send them back to the manufacturer for calibration.
4. Screw the newly calibrated sensors into the sensor network.
5. Activate sensor in Configuration > Measuring Room > Sensors.
The removed temperature sensors can be sent back to the manufacturer
for re-calibration. Calibration takes approximately three to six weeks
dependent on the sensor type (plus shipping time). Alternatively the
calibration-exchange service can be used
supply and expansions"). In this way, you receive a newly calibrated
sensor network sent to you before the calibration elapses. All sensors can
be replaced and consequently the measuring process can be
recommenced within a very shot time period. Then the sensors with the
lapsed calibration must be sent back to Carl Zeiss 3D Automation.
