The read head forms part of the positioning system in the Pepperl+Fuchs incident light pro- cess. The read head includes a camera module and an internal illumination unit, which the read head uses to detect a strip of Data Matrix code tape stuck to the floor for lane tracking and nav- igation.

PGV100R-F200-R4-1.5M Product Description Tag Mode In addition to lane tracking, the read head can also be used in tag mode. The read head detects Data Matrix tags, which are typically glued onto the floor in a grid. The individual Data Matrix tags are numbered consecutively and include position information.
PGV100R-F200-R4-1.5M Product Description RS-485 Interface The read head is equipped with an RS-485 interface for communication purposes, i.e. parame- terizing the read head functions or reading out current process data during operation. This interface is operated in 8-E-1 operating mode and is fitted with a terminator that can be acti- vated or deactivated by parameterizing the sensor head.

PGV100R-F200-R4-1.5M Installation Figure 3.6 Distances Behavior of the Read Head at Branches and Curves The read head behaves differently depending on the type of branch and the specified lane. The read head must know the upcoming direction decision. A second lane branches off to the left from the straight lane: The read head follows the straight lane if the direction decision "follow right-hand lane"...

PGV100R-F200-R4-1.5M Installation Caution! Damage to the device Connecting an alternating current or excessive supply voltage can damage the device or cause the device to malfunction. Electrical connections with reversed polarity can damage the device or cause the device to malfunction.
PGV100R-F200-R4-1.5M Commissioning Commissioning Direction Decision The read head has several ways of following Data Matrix code tapes depending on the param- eterization. Depending on the input signal, the read head follows the right-hand lane, the left- hand lane, or the better lane.
PGV100R-F200-R4-1.5M Commissioning Parameterization Using Code Cards During parameterization, the read head scans special code cards optically and configures the relevant parameters. Simply hold the corresponding code cards at the correct distance in front of the lens on the read head. The standard code cards are in the appendix.
PGV100R-F200-R4-1.5M Commissioning 4.2.1 The code cards "CANCEL", "USE", and "DEFAULT" Holding one of these cards in front of the reading head exits parameterization mode with the following consequences: • CANCEL: All parameter changes that are made but have not yet been saved are discarded. The reading head operates with the last valid parameters that were saved.
PGV100R-F200-R4-1.5M Operation and communication Operation and communication Communication via the RS-485 Interface The controller and read head communicate via the RS-485 interface during operation. Make sure that the basic communication settings have been made on the read head, such as setting the read head address and baud rate.

PGV100R-F200-R4-1.5M Appendix User User Figure 6.2 The "USER" code card is used to activate the user level in the external parameterization operating mode. Store Figure 6.3 The "STORE" code card stores the modified parameterization in the nonvolatile memory of the read head and terminates external parameterization operating mode.
Page 38
PGV100R-F200-R4-1.5M Appendix Figure 6.5 The "USE" code card takes over the set configuration volatile in the read head working memory and terminates the external parameterization operating mode. The read head then operates with this configuration. However, if the read head is switched off and on again, the configuration is lost and the read head operates with the last valid configuration that was saved.
