Starting up the device – Basic configuration
8.1
Measures to be performed prior to the initial commissioning
NOTICE
Ä
Observe the notices for device arrangement (see chapter 6.1 "Determining the mounting po-
sition of the positioning sensor").
Ä
If possible, always trigger the positioning sensor with the aid of commands or an external
signal transmitter (e.g. photoelectric sensor/diffuse sensor).
Ä
Before commissioning, familiarize yourself with the operation and configuration of the de-
vice.
Ä
Before connecting the operating voltage, recheck all connections and ensure that they have
been properly made.
NOTICE
No additional configuration software is necessary for commissioning.
8.2
Starting the device
Ä
Connect the 18 V … 30 V DC operating voltage.
Ä
After applying the operating voltage, the device operates with the factory settings.
• The following parameters are stored in the factory setting:
• Working distance: 300 mm
• Marker diameter: 13 mm
• Marker: hole or reflector
• Offset X/Y: 0 mm
• Tol/- X/Y: 4 mm
• Marker tolerance: 15 %
• Activation via SWI1 (default: reading gate control).
• If a marker is detected, the following is output:
• Switching outputs: Position value via SWO5 … SWO8 (default)
• Ethernet communication: Position value X/Y, status, quality score
• Feedback LEDs: Status of the switching outputs SWO5 … SWO8
NOTICE
Deviations from these settings must be set via the webConfig tool (see chapter 9 "Commission-
ing – Leuze electronic webConfig tool").
Ä
Using the online commands, important device functions can be checked, e.g. reading activation (see
chapter 10.1 "Online commands").
NOTICE
For information on how to proceed in the event of problems during commissioning of the devices
see chapter 12 "Diagnostics and troubleshooting".
If a problem occurs that cannot be rectified even after checking all electrical connections and
settings on the devices and on the host, contact your responsible Leuze electronic subsidiary or
Leuze electronic customer service (see chapter 13 "Service and support").
