• Basic understanding of data transfer methods Intended use The ISD 230, 260 and 280 systems are used to establish a cordless link for transferring serial data in full-duplex mode using infrared light. The link, in this sense, always comprises a pair of devices (2 units) with different carrier frequencies.
Operating Instructions ISD 230/260/280 IR Data Transmission Systems Infra-red light can cause blindness! The ISD 230/260/280 emit infra-red radiation (λ λ λ λ λ = = = = = 860 nm). LIGHT EMITTING LASER DIODE CLASS 1 according EN 60825-1/prA1:1999. WARNING Looking directly at the beam can seriously damage your eyesight.
The following are required to startup and configurate the ISD: 1. ISD without heater: For each unit a SICK connection module AMS 50 to provide the power supply and connect the data and function interfaces. Output voltage 24 V DC ±20 % according to IEC 742, max.
(free), is provided in addition to the LED. Each of the device units in the ISD 230 system is also equipped with a switching output which is deactivated under poor transmission conditions (e.g. lenses contaminated). The transmitter on every unit can be deactivated via a switching input.
• Carrier frequency (ISD 230) • Type of electrical data interface • Data transfer rate Chapter 5.1 ISD 230 System, Page 22 and Chapter 5.2 ISD 260 and ISD 280 Systems, Page 33 describe the configuration. 3.3.2 Function of the LEDs Four LEDs indicate the operating status, the intensity of received signal on the light path and data transmitting respectively receiving on the electrical interface.
Ø Befor mounting the system, configure the units of ISD 230 as decribed in Chapter 5.1 ISD 230 system, Page 22 or the units of ISD 260/280 system as described in Chapter 5.2 ISD 260 and ISD 280 systems, Page 33. Also prepare the electrical connection.
Mounting the AMS 50 Connection Module Ø Mount the connection modules near the units. The maximum distance between the AMS 50 and an unit should not exceed 10 m, in particular when using the ISD 230 with the RS 232 data interface.
Chapter 6.1 Switching on the units/fine adjustment, Page 43. Dismantling the system 1. Switch off the supply voltage of the AMS 50 connection modules or the non-SICK 24 V DC supply voltage. 2. Pull the connector of the connection cables from the units after loosing the fixing screws.
5-1: ISD 230: Setting of the jumpers ST 12 to ST 15 for transmission frequencies Selecting the transmission frequencies for parallel operation of two systems If two ISD 230 systems are to be operated simultaneously in close proximity of each other, the selected transmission frequencies must be such that the units with the same frequency are diagonally opposite one another (Fig.
RS 232, CL 20 mA, RS 422 or RS 485 interface. Damage to the interface module! The interface modules in the ISD 230 may be damaged if the DIL switching blocks S 1 to S 3 are set incorrectly for the required configuration.
B3: Baud rate setting as shown in Fig. 5-4, only set one switch to ON! Tab. 5-2: ISD 230: Setting of the DIL switching blocks S 1 to S 3 Data transfer rate It is only necessary to set the transmission rate for the RS 485 interface.
(for example in cable dust) for a longer stretch. Supply voltage The ISD 230 system requires a supply voltage of 24 V DC ±20 % in accordance with IEC 742 (functional extra-low voltage). The continuous current consumption per unit is max.
IEC 742 through double insulation and safety isolating transformer. Potential isolation If you are using several ISD 230 systems with the RS 232, RS 422 or RS 485 interface, we recommend that you provide the supply voltage to the individual ISDs connected between the data cables via separate power packs as a potential isolation measure.
Line termination (RS 422/485) RS 485: If one of the ISD 230 units is the last device at the line end of the electrical bus, the unit can be terminated. A defined line termination is then connected internally for the receiver in the unit to enhance the signal-to-noise ratio.

• The “Light path free“ switching output changes from high (+ 24 V) to low (0 V) if the light path will be totally interruped. • ISD 230: the additional “Contamination“ switching output changes from high (+ 24 V) to low (0 V), if the intensity of the received light from the opposite station is not adquate due to contamination on the receiver lens (see also Chapter 5.1.7 Connecting the...
