1 INTRODUCTION WARNING When a DENEX Gripper LED is combined with user selected components to form a system, the user is responsible for proper selection of parts and subsequent operation. This unit shall be installed, adjusted and serviced only by qualified personnel who are familiar with the operation of the DENEX Gripper LED and other system components. Serious personal injury and equipment damage may result if this procedure is not followed.
4 INSTALLATION In order to assure the best possible operating conditions, it is essential that the following instructions are followed exactly. 4.1 General Precautions The DENEX Gripper LED should be installed in an environment where: 1. The equipment ambient temperature does not exceed 40º C. 2. The equipment atmosphere is free from highly flammable or combustible vapors, corrosive chemical flumes, oil vapor, steam, excessive moisture and particles.

5 ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION The copy sensor has a 7-pin male connector with the following pin-out: Matching female connector is Amphenol Tuchel T3476 001, delivered with the sensor. Pin 1 : Pin 2 : Pin 3 : Pin 4 : Pin 5 : Pin 6 : Pin 7 : 5.1 +24Vin + Output (Collector) + Speed Sensor Input - Speed Sensor Input - Output (Emitter) 0V No function (connected to pin 6 internally) Power Connection Proper wiring techniques are essential for successful system installation.
5.2.1 Output Signal - Connections The output can be used for both "current source" and "current sink" depending on what is required for the connected equipment. It can be normally open or normally closed, see chapter 6, ”SOFTWARE FUNCTIONS”. In current source mode, the sensor output will give a positive output pulse when active. In current sink mode, the sensor output will give a negative pulse. Figures 5.2.1.1 and 5.2.1.2 show a common 24 VDC as power supply and as the supply for the pulse.
5.2.2 Speed Sensor Input There is a possibility to connect an input signal from a speed sensor, such as an encoder giving for example 100 pulses per Gripper, or a proximity switch that senses the Grippers, in order to give information conveyor speed and Gripper position to the DENEX Gripper LED. This information can help the sensor to increase accuracy, especially for productions with two papers per Gripper. The speed sensor input of the DENEX Gripper LED is opto-isolated, i.e.
6 SOFTWARE FUNCTIONS The real power with a microprocessor based sensor is that the sensor learns what the products and the stream look like and make decisions according to this. Before actual settings are discussed, first a short description of the major functions and terms. 6.1 Mode Setting The DENEX Gripper LED has a Single Production Mode and a Double Production Mode. The difference is the Blocking Zone, see below.
6.3 Gripper Pulse Mode The best way of handling two copies in a Gripper, and cut-edge first delivery is to attach a Gripper pulse to the speed sensor input. This is a signal which is normally available in Gripper conveyors. Normally it is a proximity switch which senses each Gripper. This pulse can be connected to the input on the DENEX Gripper LED as described in chapter 4. With DIP-switches the Gripper Pulse Mode is selected.
To adjust the sensor to get a blocking of approximately 50 % do the following: • Make a bracket that enables the sensor to be moved sideways, or order one from Baumer. Specify type of conveyor! • Set the sensor in Gripper Pulse Mode, see chapter 6.4 • Watch the Output LED during production. It should be flashing.
6.4 DIP-Switch Settings An 8-pole DIP-switch can be reached via the lid on top of the sensor. Unscrewing the screw opens the lid. The software can be controlled via the DIP switches. DIP-Switch positions = OFF = ON DIP-switches 1-4 are reserved for factory. DIP-switches 5-8 are for selecting operation mode All in OFF-position is the default setting.
7 LED INDICATORS There are four LED’s that are placed close to the connector for checking the operation of the sensor, POWER (GREEN) LED OFF (RED) OUTPUT (ORANGE) STATUS (YELLOW) Figure 7.1 Position of LED:s. 7.1 The POWER-LED The green POWER-LED indicates that the sensor has power and should be operating. Never mount or adjust the sensor when this LED is on! 7.2 The ”LED OFF”- LED The ”LED OFF”-LED is an indication that the light emitting diode is off.

10 MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS Before any adjustments or maintenance is carried out on the DENEX Gripper LED, make sure to follow the instructions below: Switch off the power by removing the power plug. Never stare into the LED aperture for a long time! 10.
12 WARRANTY Baumer Electric AG gives a warranty to the customer for quality and suitability of its products within the scope of its technical specifications. A warranty is only given according to prior agreement for parts which are used as safety parts within the meaning of the EU Machinery Directive. The guarantee of Baumer Electric AG is limited to replacement or repair of defective parts and causes which occurred before the passing of risk.
13 TROUBLESHOOTING The green LED (POWER) is not lit • • The sensor does not receive +24VDC on pin 1 and 0V on pin 6 on the Tuchel connector, see chapter 5., ”Electrical Installation”. If the sensor has been working and is suddenly dead, there could be transients knocking out the sensor. Make sure that the voltage is between 20V and 30V and is well regulated. The red LED (LED-OFF) is lit constantly, and sensor is dead • Repower the sensor. Check that the green POWER-LED is lit.
There is an over count. More pulses than copies • • • • • Check the mechanical installation. The sensor must be parallel to the support bars and the back edge of the product. Back-edges could be counted if the back edge is not parallel to the sensor. Check by running one paper at a time, and see if there is an extra pulse sent at the end of the paper. If a product comes closer than 10 mm to the sensor, it can be a problem. In that case, move the sensor higher above the stream.
