Introduction BOA Pro Vision System Overview BOA vision system is the hardware platform. Sherlock Embedded is the powerful and flexible professional machine vision software. Together they are the BOA Pro. BOA Pro is a fully integrated vision system in a compact “smart” camera format that has been specifically designed for industrial use. Packaged complete with application software embedded, BOA Pro provides power and flexibility for automated inspection for the factory floor.
BOA Pro Vision System Components BOA Pro vision systems are shipped with the components listed below. Take a few moments to verify that everything has arrived in good condition. If your product has been visibly damaged during shipment or is missing parts, please contact your Teledyne DALSA representative immediately. Standard components (ship with every BOA Vision System): Component BOA Pro Vision System BVS-0640M-PRO or, BVS-1024M-PRO or, BVS-1280M-PRO Description BOA Pro Vision System.
Installation Connecting the BOA Vision System This section details how to connect the BOA vision system with its associated components and factory environment. Camera Connectors and Indicators Designator Definitions LAN 10/100 BaseT Ethernet connection. Provides the primary interface for configuring the camera, developing the application and monitoring results.
Cable Pinouts The BOA vision system is compatible with M12 factory cordsets as show below: LAN Connector Pinout and Cordset Pin Name RJ45 Pin 1 PWR * 5 2 NC 7 3 GND * 8 4 TXD- 2 5 RXD+ 3 6 TXD+ 1 7 NC 4 8 RXD- 6 A-CAB-BVS-E8S-X I/O-PWR Connector Pinout and Cordset Pin Name Color 1 TRIG White 2 PWR Brown 3 IN0 Green 4 OUT1 Yellow 5 IN CMN Grey 6 OUT0 Pink 7 GND Blue 8 OUT CMN Red A-CAB-BVS-IO8S-X LAMP Connector Pinout Pin Name Color 1 PWR Brown 2
Cable Configurations The BOA vision system offers flexible cabling options to suit a number of application configurations: 1. For single cable applications, the Ethernet cable can be used to supply power (referred to as “Passive Power over Ethernet”) and communications between the camera and the control environment. Power is supplied by connecting a DC voltage source between 12-30V to conductors 4 (pwr) and 8 (gnd) on the Ethernet RJ45 connector. Note: The PL-100 module does this automatically.
Ethernet Only Setup with Lamp 1. Connect the M12-8 male end of the Ethernet cordset (A-BVS-E8S-X) to the M12-8 female connector labeled “LAN” on the camera. 2. Connect the RJ45 end of the Ethernet cordset to the RJ45 connector labeled “CAM LAN” on the Panel Link breakout module (A-BVS-PL-100) 3. Connect the RJ45 labeled “LAN” on the breakout module to the controlling PC, PLC or the factory LAN 4. Connect camera PWR and GND to the breakout screw terminals labeled “PWR” 5.
Ethernet and I/O Setup with Lamp 1. Connect the M12-8 male end of the Ethernet cordset (A-BVS-E8S-X) to the M12-8 female connector labeled “LAN” on the camera. 2. Connect the RJ45 end of the Ethernet cordset to the RJ45 connector labeled “CAM LAN” on the Panel Link breakout module (A-BVS-PL-100) 3. Connect the RJ45 labeled “LAN” on the breakout module to the controlling PC, PLC or the factory LAN 4. Connect camera PWR, GND and I/O from the control panel to the breakout screw terminals. 5.
Software Interface Getting Started The BOA vision system is supplied with the Sherlock Embedded application embedded. This application offers an advanced suite of vision processing capabilities to satisfy a diverse range of automated inspection needs. The application interface is accessed through the Ethernet connection using a PC with the Sherlock Embedded Client software application. • You do not need to install software on a PC to monitor the BOA Pro system.
iDiscover Utility Once launched the GUI below will be shown. The left panel shows the MAC addresses of all reachable and non-reachable BOA cameras. If a camera icon is blue, the address is compatible. If the camera icon is red, the address is not compatible. Click on one of these to populate the associated network configuration on the right. You can then modify the BOA IP address, and click “Apply”. You cannot use this GUI to connect to BOA Pro cameras running the Sherlock Embedded software.
Software Interface Change the Address Using a Web Browser The BOA static IP address can be changed through the Sherlock Embedded Web Server interface to match your Local Area Network. BOA is compatible with host computers running the Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7 operating systems. The following browsers have been tested: Microsoft Internet Explorer version 8, Mozilla Firefox 5.0.1, Google Chrome 13.0.782.220. 1.
Sherlock Embedded Web Server The Sherlock Embedded Web Server is a portal through which the BOA Pro vision system can be Monitored when running or inspecting. This interface is also used for upgrading the BOA Pro firmware. The web server is accessed from a host PC using a Web Browser. The following browsers have been tested: Microsoft Internet Explorer version 8, Mozilla Firefox 5.0.1, Google Chrome 13.0.782.220. 1. Open the web browser on an address compatible PC connected to the camera 2.
When the application is set up and stored on the camera, the Ethernet connection can be disconnected and the inspection will run autonomously (if power is supplied on the IO connector). The camera can easily store over 50 inspection programs in its flash storage memory. These programs can be switched through network commands, or through established PLC register connections or through the iNspect application interface. The camera administrator can setup user accounts with various levels of access privilege.
Sherlock Embedded Client The Sherlock Embedded Client Software is used to program and configure the inspection and peripheral communications. The Sherlock Embedded Client software is available on the CD that ships with the camera and is very easy to install. 1. Insert the BOA Pro CD into your PC’s drive. The installation utility should start automatically. (On Windows 7 you will be asked if you wish to run the setup.exe utility or open windows explorer.) 2.
Specifications General Specifications This following table lists the specifications of the BOA vision system: Specification Definition Memory Storage 256 MB Storage; 256MB Program Image Sensor 1/3 inch CCD; 7.
Input Specifications The BOA vision system provides two dedicated opto-isolated, polarity independent inputs. One of the inputs provides the acquisition Trigger function, while the other is general purpose. Specification Voltage Definition ON 12-30 V OFF 0-3 V (12 V nominal threshold) Current ON 7.
Output Specifications The BOA vision system provides two dedicated opto-isolated, solid state relay outputs and a separate dedicated light strobe (pin 2 of lamp connector). Specification Definition Voltage (Vin) Load 24V maximum Current GPO[0:1] 100mA max (drives to OCMN when active) STRB 100mA max (drives to Vin when active) NOTE: Strobe timing is configured in the “Cam0” properties.
Output Control with Sherlock Embedded The Sherlock Embedded application provides programmable options for controlling the outputs on BOA. The timing and polarity of the outputs is controlled in Digital IO Instructions. Each individual output can be controlled by an instruction in the Program Window (as detailed in the Sherlock Embedded Tutorial). The following instructions are available: set_io – Sherlock Embedded sets an output in a steady state.
Panel Link Specifications The PL-100 module offers additional isolation for the BOA camera and simplifies wiring at the control panel. The module also provides power over Ethernet for single cable applications. I/O connections to the BOA camera should be wired to the TOP connectors on the PL100 (J2 and J3) directly. NOTE: Avoid reversing PWR/GND on the I/O connector. Doing so may make the PoE feature unusable. In this case power must always be supplied through the IO cable.
