  • Page 7: Operating Procedure

    Edge Sensors. RF659 Series Operating procedure Connect the measuring heads to the controller. Apply supply voltage to the controller. Values measured by channel 1 and channel 2 respectively are shown on digital indicators. LED indicators show the position of the object in the measurement area, i.e. lit areas and areas shaded by the object.
  • Page 8: Technological Elements Ignoring' Mode

    Edge Sensors. RF659 Series 9.3. 'Technological elements ignoring' mode Under technological elements to be understood objects in the test material, projecting with respect to its edge (pins, fasteners and so on), or slots, technological gaps and the like in the edge. Technological elements affect the correct measurement of the material edge position.

    Edge Sensors. RF659 Series When the mode is activated, the "TEI" LED lights up. To exit the settings menu, press the Esc button. You will be prompted to exit without saving to FLASH by the "CAnCEL" message. To save parameters to FLASH, select "SAUE"...
  • Page 10: Count Direction' Parameter

    Edge Sensors. RF659 Series To edit the parameter, use the Up and Down buttons. To set the current signal level as the parameter value, press Up. Display 1 shows the "LECr.x" message. To save the previous value, press Down. Display 1 shows the "LEUP.x" message. In order to go to the main menu, press Enter.
  • Page 11: Logic Output Thresholds

    Edge Sensors. RF659 Series 9.7. Logic output thresholds The controller is equipped with logical outputs (two logical outputs for each channel). These logical outputs signalize about going beyond the upper and lower measurement thresholds. Press the Channel button and select the channel. The current channel number is highlighted by LED.
  • Page 12: Controller Settings For Working With Transparent Objects

    Edge Sensors. RF659 Series - Use the arrow buttons to set the parameter value so that the voltage at the analog output AO1 is set to 5V. - Press Enter to go to the next parameter. - Display 1 shows the "AOLo.2" message. Display 2 shows the parameter value.
  • Page 13 Edge Sensors. RF659 Series For correct operation, it is necessary to perform correction of the CMOS signal and set the parameter of the position detection threshold. The screenshots below show the following: the CMOS signal with correction, and the CMOS signal when measuring the position of the object with correction and with the Level parameter specified correctly.
  • Page 14: Setting Algorithm

    Edge Sensors. RF659 Series 11.1. Setting algorithm To configure the controller, you will need: the RS485 converter to connect the controller to a PC, and the RF659SP program. - Turn off the controller. - Fix the measuring heads in the working position.
  • Page 15 Edge Sensors. RF659 Series - Click View to enter the CMOS signal view mode. The FormView window appears. - Make sure that there are no objects in the measurement area, and the windows of the receiver and transmitter are clean.
  • Page 16 Edge Sensors. RF659 Series - Install a transparent object in the measurement area. - Visually determine the level of the object position detection threshold. - Close the FormView window. - Enter the value of the Level parameter corresponding to the level of the object position detection threshold.
  • Page 17 Edge Sensors. RF659 Series - Right-click in the parameters area and select Load to write the parameter to the RAM of the controller. - Right-click in the parameters area and select Write to FLASH to write the parameter to the FLASH memory of the controller.
  • Page 18 Edge Sensors. RF659 Series - Click View to open the window for browsing the CMOS signal. The FormView window appears. Make sure that the Level parameter is set correctly. - Close the FormView window. - Click the Disconnect button. - Connect to the 2nd channel of the controller: select Net number of device – 2, and click the Connect button.
