Installation Instructions SIMATIC VS 110
Steps in Installation
Step Activity
•
1 Align the sensor head so that its mid axis is at the same height as the upper edge of
the conveyor.
•
Secure the head so that it is still possible to slightly readjust the distance to the test
object and the height of the sensor head (for example, –5 mm / +20 mm). It should be
possible to tilt the sensor head at an angle of approximately 10° upwards.

2 Make sure that you keep to the specified distances to the test object and to the
illumination unit. The higher values apply to SIMATIC VS 110 for "large test objects"
(6GF1011-1AA with sensor head 6GF2002-8AA). The lower values apply to SIMATIC
VS 110 for "small test objects" (6GF1012-1AA with sensor head 6GF2002-8BA).
Remember that the specified distance to the test object applies to the edges of the test
object that create the shadow image.
Example: ´With a round part such as shown above, the distance must be measured to
the middle of the object whereas with a square object, the front edge of the object is
relevant.

Step Activity
•
3 The upper edge of the sensor head must be parallel to the conveyor.
•
When installing horizontally, the side of the sensor head with the labeling must be at the
top. Rule: The sensor head must always be installed so that the side with the glass
window is opposite the illumination unit and the test objects move between them.
•
Insert the supplied mounting plate into the T-slot of the sensor head and secure the
sensor head to your equipment.

4 Secure the illumination unit so that its center is aligned with the sensor head.
5 Install the evaluation unit so that it is easily accessible for the operator.
6 Install the actuators required for sorting the test objects. This might be, for example, a
compressed-air operated ejector.
7 If you work with an external trigger (refer also to the manual Section 1.3):
External Triggering You can, for example, use a light barrier.
