AV7000 LINEAR CAMERA
COMPONENTS
The components necessary for a bidirectional system may vary depending on your con-
figuration needs. Listed below are the major components:
• Two AV7000s
• Configuration application dependent
• Two Position Sensors, which will vary depending on the application.
• DM3610 - one Forward/one Reverse
•
RangeFinders - one Forward/one Reverse
• One DM3610 in a defined direction/one RangeFinder in the opposite direction
• One CBX510 – for the Controller AV7000
• Three CBX100’s (application dependent), one for the client AV7000 and two
for the DM3610’s if used
• Two TRIGGER photoeyes - one Forward/one Reverse
• TACHOMETER - with special bracket to accommodate reversing of the conveyor
PREREQUISITES/CONSIDERATIONS
A minimum of two AV7000 units are required to provide the necessary I/O support for a
bidirectional system. The tachometer is connected to the Controller AV7000 which dis-
tributes the signal to the other AV7000’s. The Active Configuration bit (forward/reverse)
m
ust be input to the Controller AV7000’s CBX box.
A bidirectional system behaves like two unique AV7000 arrays. Set Input 3 on the “Digi-
tal IO” page of the AV7000 Controller to “
Indicate Active Configuration” and the active
state to “
Active Low”, the Controlling AV7000 sets the state of the configuration
enabling the Primary or Secondary configuration.
Each configuration has its own unique parameter (XML) file. You provide the state of the
Dir
ection bit. It is important to keep this in mind during the application development
and installation phases of the project.
Active state (H
igh) on the selected “Input” (Input 3 LED lights on the Diagnostic/Input/
Output Status page) will force “Secondary Configuration.”
NOTE: Keep the state of the Direction bit in mind during application devel-
opment and installation.
