H-Sensortechnik SensorManager
Manual

! Attention, important safety advice !


Do not switch on the sensor till it is completely mounted on the machine and the laser
sources are aligned to the conveyor.
The switched on sensor sends invisible laser radiation during the measuring procedure.
The sources of laser are activated only when the conveyor is moving. This condition is
indicated by the blinking red signal lamp.

When the conveyor is not moving, the sources of laser are switched off automatically.
This state is indicated by the red signal lamp with a short flashing signal, followed by a
long pause.

However, to guarantee maximum safety, it should be always avoided to look directly into
the optical outlets while the sensor is current supplied.

How to accomplish a measurement


How to connect to a sensor
By clicking on the button Connect Wireless the Pocket PC tries to connect to a sensor.
If the Pocket PC is able to build up a connection, the Wireless Connection Indicator in the task bar
changes its color from red to green. A few seconds later, the volume of the current measurement is
displayed on the bottom of the main menu. If no connection could be established it could have one
of the following reasons:

Distance between sensor and Pocket PC is too great (out of range)


Sensor is powered off (check the red signal lamp)

If the check box auto connect is checked, the Pocket PC automatically tries to establish a
connection to the last sensor connected. If the check box is not checked a selection dialog appears
where all sensors in range are listed. Here you can select the sensor you would like to connect to.

Calibration Run
Hint: Before the start of a new calibration run it has to be ensured that the Pocket PC is connected
to the sensor!

After setting the system parameters, we can start a calibration run. It has to be ensured, that the
EMPTY conveyor belt is running with normal speed (sensor has to be in measuring state, red signal
lamp is blinking)

Start of calibration

When a calibration run was started, the red signal lamp starts to flash with fast repetition followed
by a short period of steady burning signal lamp. The calibration run is finished when the sensor
enters its measuring state with the red signal lamp blinking. The user has to confirm the end of the
calibration run on the Pocket PC.

If Customer, User, Location or Material name are not yet listed in the master data, the data record
has to be added.

First of all we have to choose the group in which the new data record is to be added. (Customer,
User, Location or Material)

Now a description can be added to the text field by using the displayed On Screen Keyboard.

By clicking the Add button, the new description is added to the list.

Start Measurement

Hint: Before the start of a new calibration run it has to be ensured that the Pocket PC is connected
to the sensor!

Before you start a new measurement you have the possibility to change the current master data. On
this screen you can change a single group (e.g. Customer), but also two or more groups at one (e.g.
Customer, Location and Material)

If the measurement is started without any changes, the descriptions for User, Customer, Location
and Material are taken from the previous measurement.

When all changes are done, the new measurement can be started with a click on the confirmation
symbol on the bottom.

You can close this screen anytime without starting a new measurement by clicking the cancel
symbol on the bottom.

You may need to reset your Pocket PC if it does not respond to your pressing a button or tapping on
screen. A reset stops all running applications, but does not erase any programs or saved data.
To perform a reset, locate the recessed Reset button on the bottom of your Pocket PC. Use the stylus
to lightly press the reset button. The Pocket PC restarts and after a few seconds the main menu of
the SensorManager is displayed.

Fitting of inductive sensor

The inductive sensor is there to measure the drum speed and has to be mounted in a good position
on the drive pulley of the belt conveyor.
(see picture for better understanding)

The inductive sensor on the bracket and the impulse sensor on the conveyor drum shaft must be
aligned that they pass each other in a distance of 35 mm.

Mounting of sensor unit

The sensor is bolted on the frame with the 6 M8 hex bolts which are supplied with the unit.

Be sure to not exceed the maximum mounting height of 600mm. A mounting position between
600mm and 400mm is recommended. If the mounting height falls below 400mm, it will narrow the
full measuring range.

After powering on the sensor, two red laser dots will be visible for about 5 minutes. Use these two
dots, which are marking the active measuring line to position the sensor accordingly the pictures.

The sensor has to be on the apex of the roller. Use the two red laser dots (one on each side of the
sensor) to check whether they match the point of contact between belt & drum exactly!

figure 4

Also be sure to pay attention to the running direction of the conveyer! The sensor has to be mounted
in the right direction!

ATTENTION:
If the red laser beams are on the side stripper,
then they have to be cutted out! The side
strippers should be cutted like on the pictures!

Connecting the cables of the system

figure 5

Connect the inductive sensor to the measuring sensor using the data cable A & B
The sensor is then connected to 24 Volt / 5 Ampere using the power supply cables C & D. If the
sensor is used in conjunction with a 12 Volt system, the DC/DC converter E is used. It is advised to
connect the sensor to the power supply at the ignition so that the sensor is only turned on when the
ignition is on and the crusher is running.

Following please find the occupancy of the cables:


Pin 2 / Blue -
Pin 1 / Brown +

You must take care when mounting all the cables to ensure that they cant be damaged or squashed
when the plant is working or when the plant is being transported i.e. the conveyors are folded.

Determination of roll diameter

The diameter of the conveyor drum has to be acquired before the beginning of the measurement. The
diameter includes the rubber coating of the roll, but does NOT include the conveyor belt.

The most accurate way to determine the roll diameter is to measure the perimeter of the drum and
acquire the diameter mathematical by dividing with Pi (3,14).

wavelength ! = 785 nm
pulse repetition rate frep = 200 Hz

2. Warning

Laser radiation of class 3B is emitted


as soon as the device is set working!

Therefore, the following items must be ensured before starting up the device:

The sensor may be set working only, if it is duly attached at the sensor
mounting. Otherwise all persons concerned must wear safety goggles.

Strip run must not be simulated.

The optical path must be terminated in case of lack of measuring stock!

There must not be any reflecting surfaces mounted in the optical path that might
lead to reflections ! (For optical path see Fig. 5).

During operation the operating personnel and other persons must not look
