WARNING . . . Not To Be Used for Personnel Protection Never use this product as a sensing device for personnel protection. Doing so could lead to serious injury or death. This product does NOT include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow its use in personnel safety applications. A sensor failure or malfunction can cause either an energized or deenergized sensor output condition.
sensorintroduction Introducing PresencePLUS P4 The PresencePLUS P4 (or the Sensor) is an easy-to-use vision sensor with advanced visual inspection capabilities. With minimal knowledge of vision, a user can quickly set up the Sensor to run an inspection that tests all products and accurately rejects bad products on a production line. Inspections are set up using a personal computer (PC) or by activating the Remote Teach input.
components/connections step 1 1. I nstall the lens (and filters, if used). For EDGE, GEO, BCR, AREA, and OMNI any lens may be used. For EDGE 1.3, GEO 1.3, AREA 1.3, BCR 1.3, and OMNI 1.3 use only Megapixel lenses. For non-Banner lenses, follow the lens manufacturer’s unpacking and installation instructions. Aperture Lock Screw Focusing Ring NOTE: If the lens has a focus lock screw, loosen the screw before focusing the lens. Some lenses also have an aperture lock screw.
components/connections 5. Connect the leads on the 12-wire cable to the appropriate locations (see pin assignments below).

a. Insert the Installation CD. b. Click Install PresencePLUS PC Software. step 4 Starting the PresencePLUS P4 1. P ower up the hardware and verify that the Power/Error light turns Green. This may take up to 20 seconds. Green = Ready Yellow = Trigger 2. Verify that the yellow LED on the Ethernet port is ON. Green = Power If it is not ON, see Red = Error Cable Connections on page 4. Green = Pass Green = Pass Red = Fail Green = Power Red = Error Green = Ready Yellow = Trigger sensorstartup 2.
creatinginspections step 6 Software Setup Use the Main Menu toolbar to navigate the PresencePLUS P4 options. Proceeding from left to right, the buttons in the Menu toolbar step through the process of creating an inspection file. Inspection Work Flow 1. Set up the Sensor, lens, and lighting, to acquire a reference image. a. Set up the Sensor lens and lighting. b. Choose Trigger option Continuous for a live image. c. Click Auto Exposure to adjust the brightness. d.
creatinginspections Tool Options NOTE: Tool availability depends on P4 model; see back page. Location Tools Tool Name Translation and rotation Locates the target by searching for a taught pattern and compensates for translation and rotation. Locate Translation and rotation Finds the edge of the part and compensates for translation and rotation (if selected). Finds one or more patterns Locates and counts a taught pattern.
runninginspections 3. This screen automatically configures the parameters chosen in the Tools screen. a. Choose the sample size b. Click Start c. Trigger the controller with the external trigger device d. Click Stop e. Click Next to proceed to Run Before entering Run, save the inspection file to one of the 12 memory locations on the Sensor. 4. Select an inspection to run, and view the results of the inspection.
System Setup Use the System Setup screen to change discrete I/O, the communication port, the product change, the strobe output (for external lighting control), the trigger input, and to view diagnostic information. NOTE: To select the polarity of the outputs, set one of the four I/O pins to an output. sensorconfiguration step 7 InputOutput Configuration Tab Save inspections to the Sensor or to a folder on the PC.
sensormaintenance Maintenance Maintenance tasks include keeping the hardware free of dust and dirt and updating the PresencePLUS software as new versions become available. Cleaning the Sensor Regularly remove any accumulated dust or dirt from the Sensor using a soft cloth. If needed, slightly dampen the cloth with a weak solution of neutral detergent. Avoid getting dirt on the Sensor’s imager (the area behind the lens). If the imager is dirty, use anti-static compressed air to blow off the dust.
Problem Cause/Solution • Error Code is displayed on PC. • A list of error codes and potential causes and solutions are available under Help/About on the PresencePLUS software CD. • Power light is not ON. • Interface cannot connect to Sensor. • No image on monitor. Sensor not getting enough power • Verify that the power supply is 10–30V dc with maximum current of 550 mA (GEO 1.3, EDGE 1.3, AREA 1.3, BCR 1.3, and OMNI 1.
