BVS SC-_1280Z00-07-0_0 SMARTCAMERA IO Product Description 3.5.1 Power The power plug connector supplies the SMARTCAMERA with the supply voltage and offers two I/O-24V switching signals (I/O 0 & I/O 1) for the connection with sensors, actuators or PLC. These two inputs and outputs feature a push-pull output stage. This allows using the output signal for PNP logic as well as NPN logic.

BVS SC-_1280Z00-07-0_0 SMARTCAMERA IO Product Description 3.5.3 I/O Light The I/O light interface provides 24 volt and two I/O signals (I/O 6 & I/O 7). These I/Os, similar to the two I/Os at the power plug connectors (see section “Power” on page 14), are equipped with a push-pull output stage and a PNP input.

BVS SC-_1280Z00-07-0_0 SMARTCAMERA IO Product Description 3.5.4 The IO interface furnishes six galvanically isolated I/O 24-V switching signals for the connection with sensors, actuator or PLC. All inputs and all outputs have a Common In or Common Out reference potential. This allows using the I/Os either for PNP logic or NPN logic.

BVS SC-_1280Z00-07-0_0 SMARTCAMERA IO Product Description Display The operating states of the vision system, the IO-Link master and the LAN and fieldbus interface elements are displayed using LEDs. The display elements are distributed across the front and the under- side of the SMARTCAMERA.
BVS SC-_1280Z00-07-0_0 SMARTCAMERA IO First Steps Three simple steps are required to initially start up and configure the SMARTCAMERA. Besides the SMARTCAMERA, the following is required: – Power cable – 24 V power supply – LAN cable – PC with web browser...
Information For further information about the BVS Cockpit configuration interface, see the software manual (BVS Cockpit manual). (Balluff homepage and on the SMARTCAMERA) If there is already another SMARTCAMERA in the network, you can also connect with this SMARTCAMERA and change to any other SMARTCAMERA in the local network using this interface.
BVS SC-_1280Z00-07-0_0 SMARTCAMERA IO Commissioning Network For the startup of the SMARTCAMERA, it is first integrated in the network environment. The Topologies different options are described in the following examples. This covers a large part of the applica- tion cases. To operate the SMARTCAMERA requires that the supply voltage is provided via the power connection in any case.
