S8-PH/MH...M53
Background suppression for shiny objects
INSTRUCTION MANUAL
CONTROLS
OUTPUT LED (yellow)
The yellow LED ON indicates the output status.
POWER ON LED (green)
The green LED ON indicates the powering status and the laser emission
presence.
DISTANCE ADJUSTMENT TRIMMER (ADJ.)
The multiturn trimmer with clutch (8 turns) adjusts the suppression distance
through the mechanical variation of the optic triangulation angle.
The operating distance increases rotating the trimmer in a clockwise direction.
Please refer to the "SETTING" paragraph for the correct procedure.
TEACH-IN PUSH-BUTTON
The push-button allows acquiring the background.
Please refer to the "SETTING" paragraph for the correct procedure.
INSTALLATION
The sensor can be positioned by means of the two housing holes using two
screws (M3x18 or longer, 0.8 Nm maximum tightening torque)
with washers.
Several fixing brackets are available which can be oriented in
various positions to ease the sensor installation, (please refer
to the accessories listed in the general catalogue).
The operating distance is measured from the front
surface of the sensor optics.
S8-PH
In the presence of moving backgrounds
like conveyor belts, especially having a
dark or shiny surface, the best object
detection performance can be obtained
by mounting the sensor at an angle
(max 30°) with respect to the horizontal
plane, as shown in the figure.

LIGHT/DARK MODE SETTING
LIGHT MODE setting
Connect the LIGHT/DARK signal (white wire) to 0V or leave unconnected.
The output is ON with the object in the sensing area and OFF on the
background.
BACKGROUND ACQUISITION PROCEDURE
The S8-PH...M53 sensor allows detection of shiny objects without the false commutations typical of traditional background suppression sensors. To function
correctly it is necessary to perform the Background Acquisition Procedure at power up as described below.
1.
Activation Background Acquisition Procedure: press TEACH-IN push-button for 1 sec until OUT LED (yellow) turns OFF.
The output (black wire) turns OFF and the yellow LED signals the commutations of a standard background suppressor.
2.
Background suppression from the detection area (CUT-OFF): position the sensor in front of the background at a distance within its Operating Range.
Turn the Distance Adjustment Trimmer in a clockwise direction until OUT LED (yellow) turns ON, then turn in a counter clockwise direction to turn
OFF yellow OUT LED (Background NOT Detected Condition).
3.
Background Acquisition: press TEACH-IN push-button for 1 sec. The sensor acquire the background. Successful Background Acquisition is indicated
S8-MH
by a short blink of the laser emitter. If the yellow LED blinks, the background acquisition procedure has failed.
Press TEACH-IN push-button in the counter-clockwise direction and repeat the procedure from step 2.
Hysteresis setting
After background acquisition detection, the sensor is ready to detect any object that passes through the detection area. To obtain the best working for the
application it is possible select 4 hysteresis levels. During the hysteresis setting the yellow OUT LED blinks with different frequency to indicate the hysteresis
level and the digital output indicate the sensor's commutation.
1.
Position the sensor in front of the background
2.
Press TEACH-IN push-button for 3 sec until OUT LED (yellow) turns ON. The yellow OUT LED start to blink with different frequency depending from
the hysteresis level:
OUT LED BLINKING
HYSTERESIS
SLOW
LOW
MIDDLE SLOW
MIDDLE LOW
MIDDLE FAST
MIDDLE HIGH
FAST
HIGH
3.
Verify the there are not false commutation on the background through digital output, otherwise pass on upper hysteresis level pressing the push-button
for 1 sec.
4.
Press the TEACH-IN push-button for 3 sec (OUT LED turns OFF and then turns ON) to confirm the hysteresis level.
Successful hysteresis setting is indicated by a short blink of the laser emitter.
5.
Verify the shiny objects reading.
NOTE: With special fixed backgrounds, the S8-PH/MH...M53 sensor detectes correctly also trasparent objects.

DIMENSIONS
ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONS
AUTO-ADAPTIVE FUNCTION
During normal operation, a commutation threshold auto-adjustment function is
active. At intervals of 1 minute from the last acquisition, the sensor checks if
the background signal has changed significantly, and if necessary, updates
the commutation value. This function compensates for slow variations of the
background caused for example by surface deterioration over time, and
therefore avoids repeating the manual background acquisition procedure
periodically.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
All the safety electrical and mechanical regulations and laws have to be
respected during sensor functioning.
The sensor has to be protected against mechanical damages.
Place the given labels in a visible position close to the laser emission.
Do not look directly into the laser beam!
Do not point the laser beam towards people!
These sensors are not to be used for safety applications!
The sensors are NOT safety devices, and so MUST NOT be used in the safety control of
the machines where installed.
