Parameter
Description
Use
Display image
Activate and deactivate image
transmission for the SOPASair user
interface.
Image output is necessary for setting
up the device. In actual operation,
switching off image output is
recommended.
Store images to SD card
Save images on the microSD memory
card in the device.
Analyze settings over a long period of
time. Typical shapes and, if
applicable, problematic marks can be
identified using images. In continuous
operation, switching off this function
is recommending to achieve
maximum throughput.
Image sharpness
Activate image sharpness
measurement.
The device outputs a value for image
sharpness. Adjust the focus position
of the lens until the focus value is at
the maximum, see
Figure 8: Manual
focus screw, page 24. When the
focus is final, deactivate the Image
sharpness switch.
Image transfer FTP
Transfer the current image to the
address set in the Interfaces window
using the FTP server.
Save images for documentation
purposes or later evaluation.
Reset image counter
An internal image counter counts the
recorded images. The image counter
can be reset using the Reset image
counter button.
Use of the image counter and
resetting it can simplify
commissioning, for example for
comparing the signals arriving at
the controller with the counter.
Deformation factor (for triple
reflectors)
Compensate for deformed circles
which typically occur when using
triple reflectors.
If reflectors are not exactly circular,
this parameter ensures that the
reflectors are still detected as
positioning marks. The detection of
the positioning mark is optimized in
relation to the deviating shape.
Double deep
Switch between the Single and
Double deep modes.
Report to the device that settings for
close range (single deep) or long
range (double deep) are being made
internally. During set-up, this switch
can be used to separately define
input fields (e.g. working distance)
for the Single and Double deep
modes. During operation, the para-
meter is switched by the controller
via a command depending on the
approached shelf depth of the rack.
Dark circle on bright
background (hole in steel)
Set polarity of the positioning mark
(light circle on dark background or
dark circle on light background).
Holes typically appear dark on light
backgrounds. Reflectors appear light
on dark backgrounds.
Diameter scaling min. - max.
Define spectrum in which the circle
size can vary.
Example: 0.85 … 1.15 corresponds to
85% to 115% of the expected circle
diameter.
The parameter defines which circle
diameter is considered the valid
positioning mark by the device. If the
area is set too high or too low, circles
can be overlooked or too many
potential circles could be detected
as possible positioning marks. This
function is used to compensate for
