Turck MR... Radar Scanner Quick Start Guide

Introduction

The Turck MR... Radar Scanner is designed for non-contact detection of objects within its sensing range and for measuring their position in space. It offers flexibility by allowing selection between evaluating the closest object or the object with the strongest echo signal when multiple objects are present. The detection range and object detection can be customized using filter settings and sensor configurations.

This document serves as a quick start guide. For comprehensive information, additional documents such as the Data Sheet, Instructions for Use, IO-Link Parameters, IO-Link Commissioning Manual, Declarations of Conformity, and Approvals are available on the internet at www.turck.com.

For Your Safety

Intended Use

The MR... series radar scanners are intended for detecting the presence of objects and measuring their position without contact. They are not safety components and must not be used for personal protection. Any use other than described in this guide is considered misuse. Turck assumes no liability for damages resulting from misuse.

General Safety Instructions

• Mounting, installation, operation, parameterization, and maintenance must be performed only by professionally trained and qualified personnel.
• Do not use the device for the protection of persons or machines.
• The maximum emitted transmission power of the sensor does not exceed the permitted limits according to ETSI EN 305550-2.

Notes on UL Approval

Radar sensors must be used with a listed (CYJV/7 or CYJV2/8) cable/connector assembly rated for at least 36 VDC and 500 mA, suitable for the application in the final installation.

Product Description

Device Overview

Figure 1 shows the device view, and Figure 2 illustrates its dimensions. The device is a compact rectangular unit with connectors and mounting points.

Functions and Operating Modes

Type: MR...-Q80-IOLCJ-H1141

Output: IO-Link (SSP 4.1.1), 2 switching outputs, SAE J1939

The device measures the distance between the detected object and the end of the sensor housing, along with the respective azimuth and elevation angles, and radial velocity. For the switching outputs, a single switching point, two switching outputs, or a window function can be defined for distance, angle, or velocity channels. Measured values are transmitted to the higher-level control system via IO-Link process data and the SAE J1939 protocol. Distance is transmitted in meters (m), angle in degrees (°), and speed in meters per second (m/s).

The device can be parameterized via both IO-Link and the SAE J1939 protocol.

Installation

The "Turck" lettering on the sensor indicates its azimuth axis. Sensors can be mounted in any orientation based on application requirements. The radar wave propagates perpendicular to the radar lens surface. The detection range, in terms of distance and angle, can be set to customer specifications, with a maximum cone angle limited to ±60° (azimuth) and ±50° (elevation).

The maximum tightening torque for mounting the sensor is 7 Nm.

• ➔ Install the sensor at the intended location. Observe the blind zone (Smin) where no object detection is possible (refer to technical data).
• ➔ Mount the sensor such that no foreign objects are within the detection range (refer to Figure 3).

Connection

? NOTE: The device must be supplied by a SELV/PELV power source compliant with UL61010-1 3rd Edition (IEC/EN 61010-1) limited energy circuit requirements, or a limited power source compliant with UL 62368-1 or Class 2 according to NEC.

• ➔ Connect the device as shown in the "Wiring diagrams".

Wiring diagrams show two connectors. Connector 1 (IO-Link and switching outputs) typically includes pins for +V, GND, Output 1, Output 2, IO-Link C/Q, and IO-Link D. Connector 2 (SAE J1939) includes pins for CAN_H, CAN_L, and CAN_GND.

Commissioning

The device becomes operational automatically once the cables are connected and the power supply is switched on.

Operation

LED Indicators

The device features three LEDs: PWR, COM, and APP, indicating various status conditions.

Combined Status Displays

These indicate critical system states:

Data Transfer via IO-Link SSP4

Data transfer via IO-Link SSP4 utilizes four channels:

• Channel 1: Distance
• Channel 2: Azimuth angle
• Channel 3: Elevation angle
• Channel 4: Velocity

Data Transfer via SAE J1939 Interface

Data transfer via the SAE J1939 interface uses the parameter group PGN 0xFF20 (65315). Object data is generated from the first or strongest detected object (configurable in sensor parameters).

Setting and Parameterization

Parameterization via IO-Link is detailed in the IO-Link commissioning manual. The following sensor properties can be adjusted:

• Foreground and background suppression
• Angle suppression (azimuth and elevation)
• Signal intensity filter
• Detection of only moving objects or all objects
• 6 warning/alarm radii around the sensor
• 3 signal fields within the detection range

Maintenance, Repair, and Disposal

Maintenance

The device is maintenance-free. Clean with a damp cloth if required.

Repair

If the device is faulty, it must be decommissioned. Only Turck can repair the device. Please observe Turck's return acceptance conditions when returning the device.

Disposal

Devices must be disposed of properly and should not be placed in domestic waste.
