FAQ

  • Q: How do I enable QuickTeach?
    • A: QuickTeach must be enabled once before use by deciding whether the sensor will act as a label or a splice detector. Once enabled, you cannot switch between NCC/NOC.
  • Q: What are the factory settings for esf-1 sensors?
    • A: The esf-1 sensor is delivered with Label/splice output F on NOC, QuickTeach disabled for esf-1/CF/A, and Label/splice output F on NOC, Output D on web break display, Output web break on NOC, QuickTeach disabled for esf-1/../CDF/A.

Functional principle

An ultrasonic transmitter in the lower leg of the fork transmits a fast se-quence of pulses through the backing material. The sound pulses cause the backing material to vibration, so that a weakened sound wave is transmit-ted from the opposite side. The recei-ver in the upper leg of the fork recei-ves and evaluates this sound wave. The esf-1 sensor can be used as a label sensor and/or a splice sensor. The backing material transmits a diffe-rent signal level than the backing ma-terial with label or web material with splice. The difference between the backing material and backing with label or the web material and splice can be very subtle. To ensure reliable detection, the esf-1 sensor must there-fore initially learn the signal level for the backing or web material. With its three Teach-in methods, the esf-1 sensor can be optimally adjusted to any task configuration.\ With QuickTeach, there is also a simp-lified Teach-in procedure available.

Product Description

Safety Notes

  • Read the operating manual prior to start-up.
  • Connection, installation and ad- adjustments may only be carried out by qualified staff.
  • No safety component in accordance with the EU Machine Directive, use in the area of personal and machine protection not permitted.

Proper Use

esf-1 ultrasonic sensors are used for non-contact detection of labels and splices.

Installation

  • Install the esf-1 in such a way that the leg with the button is on top. This mounting position permits you to keep the measuring track opti-mally clean.
  • Connect the sensor with the 4-pin M8 initiator plug as shown in Fig. 1, and with 5-pin M12 initiator plug as shown in Fig. 2.

Start-up

  • Connect the power supply.
  • Insert web material into the fork without the material touching the fork.
  • Carry out one of the three standard Teach-in methods or QuickTeach.IO-Link-esf-1CDF A2 -Speed-Ultrasonic -Label-And-Splice -Sensor-fig (1) IO-Link-esf-1CDF A2 -Speed-Ultrasonic -Label-And-Splice -Sensor-fig (2)

Teach-in via push-button and control input

The Teach-in procedure can be carried out via the button on the top leg of the fork or with the Teach-in/Com in-put on pin 5 on the M12 connector or pin 2 on the M8 connector.

Notes using Teach-in

  • The Teach-in/Com control input is parallel with the push-button.
  • +UB/–UB connected to the control input corresponds to a key press.
  • A Teach-in using the control input can also be carried out with active synchronization.
  • A failed teach-in is indicated by the flashing of the 3 LEDs.

Standard Teach-in

There are three Teach-in methods available (see Diagram 1):

  • Dynamic Teach-in of labels
  • Separate Teach-in for backing material and labels
  • Splice sensor

QuickTeach

With QuickTeach (see Diagram 2), you have an optional simplified Teach-in procedure. QuickTeach must be enabled once before use.

Notes using QuickTeach

  • To use QuickTeach, you have to decide whether the sensor will act as a label or a splice detector.
  • Once QuickTeach is enabled, you can‘t switch between NCC/NOC any more.

Operation

The esf-1 continually performs measurements and sets the switching out-puts based on its results. An overview of the operating modes with the asso-ciated LED displays is shown in Fig. 3.

Factory setting

The esf-1 sensor is delivered factory-made with the following settings:

esf-1/CF/A

  • Label/splice output F on NOC
  • QuickTeach is disabled

esf-1/../CDF/A

  • Label/splice output F on NOC
  • Output D on web break display
  • Output web break on NOC
  • QuickTeach is disabled

The sensor can be reset to its factory setting (see »Further settings«, Dia-gram 3).

  • To do this, connect all Teach-in/Com control inputs together.
  • See Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 for the pin assignment.

Configuration via LinkControl  Using the LinkControl adapter (optional accessory) and the LinkControl software for Windows®, all Teach-in and additional sensor parameter set-tings can be optionally adjusted.

Synchronization

If multiple esf-1 sensors are operated in tight space, they can influence one another. To avoid this, the esf-1 sensors can be synchronized.

Operation with LinkControl

  • Install LinkControl software at your PC.
    Connect the adapter to your PC using the usb cable.
  • Connect the power supply cable at the T-connector of the LCA-2. Start the LinkControl-Software and follow the instructions on the screen.
  • To connect the esf-1/CF/A with the LinkControl-Adapter you need an adapter cable M8 to M12 (see Fig. 4).

You can make the following settings: Ԏ NC/NO function of the switching outputs

  • Function of the switching output D Ԏ Teach-in procedure
  • Enable/disable QuickTeach

In addition, the measurement data are shown in a graph.

Maintenance

The esf-1 is maintenance-free. For significant deposits of dirt, we recommend carefully blowing out the measuring track with clean, oil-free compressed air.
