Operation
B2. Tracking mode (controlled by increment)
Note
SICK AG can design and preconfigure more complex omni-portal systems to fulfill the
customer's reading requirements and then provide appropriately trained personnel to
install, test and put these systems into operation.
An overview of the parameterization steps for an example situation is given below (the
overview does not include all available parameterization options).
Prerequisites:
•
Max. 20 objects
consecutively, simultanously in the reading field.
Example: Omni-directional 3-side reading with groups of CLVs (slaves) and OTC 400
controller (master)
•
Minimum object gap between two objects in conveyor direction:
50 mm
•
Size of reading field = distance between sensor for beginning/end of object and object
release point parameterized in the OTC 400 (data output)
•
Dynamic focus control according to application:
– with OTS height information (distance) via CAN bus for reading from top
– one distance configuration (fixed focus) for e. g. reading from side and sufficient
depth of field (DOF)
•
Sensor for beginning of object and incremental encoder connected to the OTC 400
•
Master/slave arrangement using the CAN interface
Possible reading triggers:
•
via OTS trigger
Further preparations for each CLV:
¾
Configuring oscillating mirror (optional):
see
Chapter c) Optional: Parameterizing oscillating mirror functions, Page 6-10
¾
Configuring no. of bar codes to be read:
see
Chapter f) Parameterizing the evaluation characteristics, Page 6-23
Note
To separate bar codes of the same type with identical contents, connect an incremental en-
coder to the OTC 400 and activate the "Compare Code Position" function in the CLV.
