Checker 4G Overview Dimensions, Connectors, Indicators The Checker 4G sensor provides direct discrete I/O and power connections as well as Ethernet Mounting holes (M4 x 4 mm) connections to PCs and networked PLCs . Focus lock (M3, use 2 .5 mm hex key) Lens cover/focus ring Ethernet Traffic Indicator: Green: Link present...
Getting Started Step Using a PC 5 . Connect to • If you are connecting Checker to a network that does not use DHCP, use the Network Settings pane to specify a static IP address for this and configure 1 . Review •...
Checker User Interface Menu bar and status pane . The menu bar lets you open and save jobs and manage Checker personalities and system settings . The status pane shows which Checker is connected, the Job name and if it has been saved, along with results for the most recent image .
Connecting to Checker Adding a Checker to the Checkers List When the Get Connected step is selected, the Checker PC software displays all available Checker sensors detected on the subnet to which the PC is connected in the Checkers list . You can select any of these Checker sensors and click Connect to connect .
Configuring Checker The following list summarizes the items the Checker Configuration dialog lets you configure for your • In the Protocol Settings pane, select the Factory Floor Protocol (FFP) that should be Checker: enabled for use by Checker when communicating with the PLC. ProfiNET, EtherNet/IP, and a Generic FFP are available .
Part Trigger A part trigger tells Checker that a part is ready to be inspected . Checker supports three trigger types . Internal Part Trigger: Checker uses its Part Finding Sensor to detect when a part is present and ready to be inspected. You create and configure the Part Finding Sensor by selecting a feature on your part that is always present .
Part Finding Sensor A Part Finding Sensor detects and locates your part in the image . You create a Part Finding Sensor by Part Finding Sensors and Trigger Types drawing a box around a feature of part that is present on both good and bad parts . Part Finding Sensors are used differently for different trigger types .
Presence Sensors Sensor Threshold Presence Sensors evaluate a part of a Checker image to determine if a feature is present or not . Presence sensors support one-click setup; simply click on the feature you want to check to create and configure the The sensor threshold slider sets the level below which a sensor fails and above which a sensor sensor in a single step .

Presence Sensors Contour Sensor has the Match Meter and Sensitivity controls that let you tune the sensors to maximize the reported difference between good and bad parts . Match Meter: Features matching the training image with a score less than this fail . This page is left blank intentionally .
Measurement Sensors Measurement Sensors evaluate part of a Checker image to determine if a feature is within a specified size Using the Measurement Sensor Controls range . Measurement sensors support one-click setup; simply click on the center of the feature you want to measure to create and configure the sensor in a single step.
Position Sensors Position Sensors evaluate part of a Checker image to determine if the position and orientation of patterns, If the feature (pattern, object, or edge) to be inspected falls completely within the Sensor Pass/ objects, or edges are within specified ranges. Position sensors support one-click setup; simply click on the Fail Region of the sensor, position verification will pass.
Position Sensor Controls Sensor Pass/Fail Region: For all position sensors . Use this region to specify the positional pass region for a sensor . The feature the sensor is monitoring must be within this region to be considered a passing feature . Drag Bar: For the Edge Position Sensor .
Filmstrip Mode Selector Filmstrip Control The Filmstrip Control lets you record and play back Checker images . The Filmstrip mode selector controls whether the Filmstrip is recording or playing back images, and if it is recording, when images are recorded to the Filmstrip . Video mode .

Mounting Checker The optional Checker mounting bracket lets you easily position and adjust Checker on your Caution: Do not use a mounting screw with an exposed thread depth of greater than line . 3.5mm. Allowing the mounting screw to bottom in the mounting hole can damage Checker.
Working Distance and FOV (Checker 4G1) Working Distance and FOV (Checker 4G1) The distance from Checker’s lens cover to your part is the working distance; the field of view is what Checker can see at that distance. As the working distance increases, so does the size of the field of view. These charts show the field of view provided by the standard 5.8mm lens at various working distances, as well as the fields of view provided by the lenses included in the optional Checker Lens Kit (CKR-200- LENSKIT) .
