Interfaces 7 Interfaces 7.1 Digital Switching Outputs (SIO) To operate the standard digital inputs of the automation technology or to directly control the electrical consumers, the switch has two digital outputs. In the version with an analog output, the functions of switching point 2 or the second digital switching output are unavailable. -

Operating Concept 8 Operating Concept 8.1 Manual Operation of the Display Version The switch is operated using the MODE (1) and SET (2) buttons. Settings are configured using software menus. The operating concept is set up ac- cording to VDMA 24574-1 and is divided into three menu levels: •... -
Page 20: Navigating In The Menu
Operating Concept One exception is error 7 (operating voltage too low): in this case “E07” will be permanently indicated in the display and the switch will delay further user entries until the operating voltage has reached the nec- essary level again. 8.3 Navigating in the Menu You can switch from the home screen to the main menu by pressing the SET BUTTON. - Page 21 Operating Concept 7. Press the MODE button ð The new value of 725 mbar for 5P1 is confirmed After 2 seconds, the system automatically returns to the 5P1 menu parameter. Example of “Setting a Number Value”: Changing SP1 from -750 mbar to +3.2 bar with VP8 version ü...

Press the MODE button ð The command is executed After 2 seconds, the system automatically returns to the home screen. Write access from the IO-Link and NFC interfaces has a higher priority than the operating menu, but gen- erally lasts only a few seconds. -

Counters, Page 33) 9.2 Measurement of Pressure and/or Vacuum Depending on the version, the VSi-series switches measure the pressure and/or vacuum relative to the am- bient air pressure: •... - Page 27 Description of Functions The condition monitoring and diagnostics modes cannot be activated simultaneously for both switching points. That means that when a switching point is already parameterized to C.no, C.nc, D.no or D.nc, the other can only adopt the modes H.no, H.nc, F.no or F.nc. The version P10 is purely a pressure switch and therefore does not offer condition monitoring mode to monitor the vacuum leakage.

Outside this window, the switching point is inactive. If necessary, a common switching hysteresis Hyx can be set, which symmetrically applies to both window points.

Page 29: Teach-In For Switching Points
Description of Functions The detection of an external suction cycle is carried out using the adjustable limit values SPx and rPx that indicate the limits for picking up and depositing a workpiece. The threshold for the maximum permissible leakage is set using the parameter L-x in millibars per second. The following diagram shows the case of a typical suction cycle where the system indicates a leakage and the vacuum generator drains many times: Peak recognition activates... -

Description of Functions the switch-off threshold is set 100 mbar below the current vacuum value. When a pressure value is applied, the values are 1 bar above or 1 bar below. The associated hysteresis for window mode is set at 10 mbar for vacuum values and 100 mbar for pressure values. ð... -

Page 32: Device Identification
9.9.1 Device Identity The IO-Link protocol provides a range of identification data for compliant devices that can be used to uniquely identify a particular device. The switches in the VSi series also include additional identification parameters. All of these parameters are ASCII character strings that adapt their length to the relevant content. -
