Field Guide Featuring the PresencePLUS® P4 GEO Vision Sensor
Vision Sensors Overview The P4 GEO uses the same user interface found in all PresencePLUS vision sensors. The PresencePLUS P4 GEO is a vision sensor that inspects an area for features in any orientation or location. Parts to be inspected can travel randomly through the sensing area, saving the cost and complexity of hard fixturing.
Vision Sensors Overview Remote TEACH Capability PresencePLUS Software Easy to use; requires minimal training 360° Part Rotation After initial setup, the P4 GEO can learn a new target without a PC. Senses moving parts traveling in any position Live Video Feed Tools Menu The P4 GEO provides a live video output, to display the sensing area without a PC.

Vision Sensors 360° Pattern Matching PASS • During Setup, the user identifies a section of the image containing the target pattern in the sensor’s field of view (FOV). • A template of the pattern is generated for the GEO Count tool. • The template is stored in the sensor’s nonvolatile memory. (If the sensor power is cycled, the inspection will be saved.) PASS • The sensor searches images to find the template, regardless of orientation.
Vision Sensors Remote TEACH Inspection • The P4 GEO inspects an ROI for missing, incorrect or “smudged” characters. Inspection Change TEACH New Condition Inspection • When the date code changes, the GEO Count tool must be taught the new pattern. • Inspections taught via Remote TEACH are saved in volatile memory. (If the sensor power is cycled, the inspection must be re-taught.) • Configure the P4 GEO to inspect for the new date by toggling the Remote Teach input.
Vision Sensors Correct Container Lid Inspection Application Objective: Verify that dairy product cartons have the correct lids, preventing the potentially costly return of a shipment. Sensors/Components: - P4 GEO P4GR - 8 mm Lens LCF08 - LEDWA80X80M White Area Light - QS30L Trigger Sensor Operation: Barcode reader verifies base container product and recalls proper lid inspection file in the P4 GEO.
