OI: BK MIKRO 7 1 Characteristics Characteristics BK MIKRO 7 is a control system suitable for tool as well as for object and free space monitoring applications. The complete BK MIKRO 7 system comprises a control unit, a sensor (scanner), a connection cable.
System Components OI: BK MIKRO 7 2 System Components 2.1 Control unit 2.1.1 Characteristic properties The control unit is available in three models preconfigured for different supply voltages. The relevant version will be marked on the rating plate: 24 VDC, 120 VAC, 230 VAC. On its front panel, the control unit is fitted with plug-in screw terminals to connect all machine inputs and outputs, supply voltage, and the scanner. The screw terminals have been arranged on two plug-in terminal blocks.

OI: BK MIKRO 7 System Components Selection inputs "S1" terminal "S2" terminal "S3" terminal The input signal (static) of +24 VDC relative to "Com" terminal must be stable during 10 ms min. before "Teach" or "Start". The input S3 must be connected at a wand length of 250 mm. Concerning shorter wands, S3 remains unconnected. By connecting S3, the wand is slower and therefore it oscillates less.
System Components OI: BK MIKRO 7 Relay outputs The terminals have been designed as dry relay contacts. By switch selection, they may be configured as either normally open or normally closed. The contacts have been designed for 250 VAC and, by additional internal circuits, protected against inductive switch-off peaks of up to 19 W (2 ms). "K.O." relay terminals These two terminals are used to indicate a fault message (K.O.). "O.K.

System Components OI: BK MIKRO 7 2.2 Scanner 2.2.1 Characteristic properties The scanner housing is cylindrical and smooth, thus permitting easy installation (e.g. by using the mounting bracket). The scanner is designed for easy access for servicing and changing the wand. Aligning the scanner is easy and requires no additional instruments or aids. We offer two types of scanners for the different applications.

OI: BK MIKRO 7 3 Mode of Operation Mode of Operation BK MIKRO 7 can be operated in different ways: Scanning in one direction Scanning in both directions Monitoring with learning function (Teach mode) Monitoring with setting scanning range (Switch mode) Monitoring as object monitoring or free space monitoring All modes allow return travel monitoring. 3.1 Scanning process Applying a pulse to "Start" or "Teach" terminal will trigger a scanning cycle.
Mode of Operation 3.2 OI: BK MIKRO 7 Output of results Fault message (K.O.) A fault message will be output immediately on detection. The scanner will return to its stop position. Good cycle message (O.K.) without return travel monitoring: Results will be indicated on reaching the scanner's stop position. Note: Its return travel will not influence scanning results. – with return travel monitoring: On reaching the stop position, scanning process results will be indicated.

This mode of operation is the typical mode for tool detection applications: The system will check for the presence of the tool at the learned position 4.1.

BK MIKRO 7 with scanner TK7A – Scanning in one direction 4.2.3 OI: BK MIKRO 7 Deflection of wand Rotation angles will be detected by scanner encoder pulses. These pulses are derived from the rotation of the motor. For scanning, a metal needle (wand) is used which, depending on the scanning force, can be deflected. As the scanner motor is still turning when the end of this wand has already come to a stop, differences between the set and actual rotation ranges will result.
OI: BK MIKRO 7 5 BK MIKRO 7 with scanner TK7RL – Scanning in both directions BK MIKRO 7 with scanner TK7RL – Scanning in both directions Note: "Scanner" toggle switch set to "TK7RL" = Only object monitoring, no free space monitoring!

OI: BK MIKRO 7 5.1.2 BK MIKRO 7 with scanner TK7RL – Scanning in both directions "Start", the real scanning process The scanner will travel to the previously "learned" positions of the objects to check for their presence. In so doing, the wand will first move in the preset direction, then in opposite direction. If the tools are within the monitoring ranges, the "O.K." relay will be activated. • If one of the two tools is not detected, (i.e.

In this mode of operation, BK MIKRO 7 allows only object monitoring: Two rotary switches are used to define two scanning ranges which are to be monitored before each working cycle. Note: A Pulse on the "Teach" terminal do not take effect. 5.2.
OI: BK MIKRO 7 5.2.2 BK MIKRO 7 with scanner TK7RL – Scanning in both directions Control operation "Object monitoring" The second "Start" pulse starts the real scanning process of object monitoring within two ranges. The control unit will change into an "O.K." state, i.e. it will issue a good message, if during a scanning cycle the operation sequence described below is followed: The scanner leaves its stop position. Both objects are detected within the rotation ranges P1 and P2.
