PHA...-F200*-R2* Installation 93.8 21.75 M6 x 9 (4x) The surface must be level in order to prevent the housing from becoming distorted when the fittings are tightened. We advise securing the screws with spring disks in order to prevent the sensor becoming misaligned. Following installation of the sensor, ensure that there is still sufficient space to connect the connecting cable to the sensor.
PHA...-F200*-R2* Installation Connecting the Sensor Connecting the Supply Voltage To supply voltage to the sensor, proceed as follows: 1. Plug the 8-pin M12 socket into the 24 VDC + IO connector on the side of the housing. see chapter 4.3. 2.
PHA...-F200*-R2* Installation 5.4.1 Connection via a CBX800 Connector Box CBX800 Fieldbus connection PHA...-F200* Power supply Figure 5.2 To connect the Vision Sensor to a fieldbus, we recommend using a CBX800 connector box. The spring terminal strips in the connector box allow simple connection and replacement of the Vision Sensor.
PHA...-F200*-R2* Commissioning Commissioning Sensor Functionality The PHA...-F200* Vision Sensor detects circular holes in the rack structure and determines their position deviation from the target position. The Vision Sensor operates in two dimensions: X and Y. X is the horizontal direction and Y the vertical direction.

PHA...-F200*-R2* Commissioning Capture Range The capture range is the area in the camera's line of vision, within which the Vision Sensor can detect a hole. The hole diameter should be 10 % to 15 % of the capture range width. Zero Position and Relative Position The actions to place an object (e.g., a pallet) in storage or remove an object from storage are controlled via the zero position (ZP) and relative position (RP).

PHA...-F200*-R2* Commissioning The relative position is activated if a signal is present at input 2. The relative position moves the target position relative to the center point of the detection/capture range Upward if a positive vertical value is entered. ■ To the right if a positive horizontal value is entered.
