Chapter 4 – Commissioning

Commissioning
The inductive guidance sensor is pre-configured for a reading height of 60 mm and
the frequencies ordered by the customer. Thus it can theoretically be used without
an explicit commissioning.
The configuration has to be changed if the CAN bus version HG G-19370ZB/HG G-
19380ZB is used or an incremental encoder is to be connected. The Profinet inter
-
face of version HG G-19370YB/HG G-19380YB does not have to be configured.
The CAN parameters have to be changed if — as is done in many applications — two
guidance sensors are mounted to one vehicle. Then the sensors need different Node
IDs. Thus at least one of the sensors has to have a different Node ID assigned.
For the commissioning configuration the USB interface is used. Connect it to your
PC as described in section 6.2 on page 19. Start a compatible terminal program on
the PC and open the guidance sensor‘s service program in it (section 6.4 on page
20). With the service program you can e.g. alter the following settings.
Depending on the application and the version the following settings may need to be
changed:
1.
The six frequencies (they are pre-set according to what the customer ordered)
2.
The gain and the thresholds (the sensor is pre-configured to a reading height of
60 mm, for the adaption to higher reading distances these can be changed)
3.
CAN-BUS Node ID (if two inductive guidance sensors are used on the same
vehicle they need to have different Node IDs, so at least one of them need to be
re-configured)
4.
CAN-BUS Baudrate (for adapting the CAN bus speed used in the vehicle)
5.
Incremental encoder mode (if an incremental encoder is to be connected)
