  • Page 4: Description

    Description 1. Description General information This operating manual covers all CCDPro … model CCD- cameras. It describes the standard web guiding application using one or two cameras and the width measurement application used with a running material web. The camera is fitted with an RGB-chip and this enables it to evaluate the three basic colours.
  • Page 5: Safety Information

    13857, EN 349 and the industry specific safety regulations must be taken into consideration when installing the BST-eltromat equipment in the production machine, these include: • There must be a safe distance between the BST-eltromat equipment and the machinery already installed on-site, such as machine panels, building structure, etc.

The installation version depends on the job definition and the site chosen as the installation site in the production machine.
  • Page 15: Background Determination

    Assembly / Installation • The light source should be aligned so that diffuse reflection is produced for recognising lines and colour contrasts on transparent and non-transparent material webs. This is dependent on the type of light source being used and the material that is being scanned.
  • Page 16: Installation

    Assembly / Installation 4.6 Installation Connect up the electrical supplies as shown in the connection diagram. The CAN-bus lines must be screened and must be laid separately from any other lines that might interfere with them or those carrying high power. You must ensure that and that the lines are connected up correctly, are protected and that the insulation is not damaged.
