Commissioning
7.1
Preparatory commissioning
Commissioning for preparatory purposes and under laboratory conditions differs in
some respects from commissioning in the target system.
In general, all safety and hazard warnings applicable to mounting (
) and electrical installation (
see "Important notes", page 19
) must also be
observed under laboratory conditions. In addition, further notes must be taken into
consideration to guarantee the most effective preparation possible:
•
Only connect those devices to the product that you want to configure or program.
•
Operate the connected device in a controlled and contained network environment
for the time being to check network communication if necessary.
•
Note the company standards that apply to the use of inspection and
testing devices.
•
For initial programming, use ideal conditions for sensor or camera recognition.
•
Use the largest possible deviations from these ideal conditions to check the
programming with respect to its error tolerance and reliability, and to determine
error limit values.
Procedure
1.
Place the device on a non-slip base.
2.
Connect the required peripheral devices,
see "Connecting peripheral devices",
.
3.
Connect the network connection.
4.
Connect the voltage supply.
5.
Connect the M12 fan plug to the SENSOR port S6. An automatic, intelligent fan
control commences after the device start-up time.
6.
Switch on the voltage supply. The device has a certain time delay before availabil‐
ity or start-up time. Device availability is indicated by a green “Dev RDY” LED.
NOTE
If S6 is reserved for application purposes, the fan control on this port can be deacti‐
vated and the following alternatives without speed control can be configured:
•
Connection of the M12 fan plug to one of the SENSOR ports S1 to S4. To use this
option, the 24 V source must be activated on the selected SENSOR port.
•
Connection of the fan cable to an external 24 V voltage supply. The fan cable has
the following pin assignment:
°
Red wire: 24 V
°
Black wire: Ground
°
Yellow wire: Not used
The deactivation of the fan control at S6 as well as the activation of a 24 V supply
voltage at S1 to S4 can either be configured via the WelcomeApp, or programmed in
the SensorApp using the APIs provided for that purpose.
