Product Overview

Reading, matching or verifying code

SIMATIC VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr can read codes, match the entire code or part of it

with a trained code and relate (verify) the quality values of the currently read code

to the quality values of a trained code.

The entire read character string or only part of it (in other words, filtered) can be

output. When it is output, further characters can de appended at the start or end as

a prefix or suffix.

The SIMATIC VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr can operate both in standalone mode to

make good/bad decisions or as part of a control system to pass on the read codes

for further processing.

Product Overview

1.3 Processing Configuration

The objects with the code are fed past the sensor head with a suitable conveyor.

They must be located fully within the sensor field of view when being read.

In the training mode, the character content of the code is saved.

In the processing mode, the current code is read and, if required, compared with

the saved content of the trained code. The digital output signals are set according

to the read result: READ (code was localized and decoded), MATCH (code

matches the trained code), N_OK (code was not legible).

The read result is output over PROFIBUS DP, PROFINET IO or over the RS-232

interface of an RS-232 Ethernet interface converter or over a TCP server

depending on the parameter settings.

Triggering

To read the code, you must make sure that the code is completely within in the

sensor field of view and clearly visible.

The code is captured at the trigger time. In this case, you generate an exact and

debounced trigger signal at the trigger time, for example with a laser light barrier.

As an alternative, you can record the code without a trigger signal (trigger source

"endless"). In this case the code is output again only when there is a code change.

This is required, for example, with rotating parts if the exact position of the code is

not known.

You can check your settings with the setup support of the VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr.

Product Overview

1.6 The lamp multiplexer accessory

If there are varying lighting conditions in the vicinity of the sensor head, it is

sometimes advisable to work with different lamps at different times. You can

therefore connect up to 4 flash lamps to the Vision Sensor VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr

using he lamp multiplexer (6GF9 002-7BA).

Note

The lamp multiplexer can only be used if you have set the multilight mode. If you

not activate the multilight mode, you must connect your lamp directly to the

processing unit.

The lamp multiplexer is shown in the figure below.

Vision Sensor SIMATIC VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr

A5E00475759-01 1-9

Product Overview

Connecting the lamp multiplexer

You connect to the processing unit as follows: Connect a lighting cable

(6GF9 002-8CE) to the LAMP socket of the processing unit and to the input socket

LIN. of the lamp multiplexer.

Connect each of the maximum four lamps to the lamp multiplexer over a lighting

cable. Lamp 1 is assigned to socket L1, lamp 2 to socket L2 etc.

Connect the socket connector "DI/DO" of the processing unit to the left-hand plug

connector "DI/DO" of the lamp multiplexer with the supplied special cable. You can

connect a digital communication cable (6GF9 002-8CB) to the right-hand plug

connector "DI/DO". Please remember that you must not then use the MATCH and

NOK signals. These are used to select a lamp.

Note

If you connect the lamp multiplexer with connected lamps to a

VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr while this is operating, this can lead to the processing unit

resetting itself in some situations.

Installing the lamp multiplexer

You have the following installation options:

• Wall-mounting using the two holes at the upper end of the lamp multiplexer

• Installation on a standard rail: In this case, screw the supplied rail adapter to

the back of the lamp multiplexer.

Product Overview

1.7 Requirements for Codes and Legibility

1.7.1 What is Required of Data Matrix and Vericodes?

General Requirements for Data Matrix and Vericodes to Ensure Readability

VS 130-2 can read data matrix codes with properties corresponding to those

published in the standard for data matrix codes. In many ways, VS 130-2 reacts

tolerantly even when certain basic properties are absent and is capable of dealing

with difficulties that are not specified in the standard.

As a result, VS 130-2 and VS 130-2vcr have a very wide range of application in

normal situations, a fact reflected in the following broad limits:

• It can read codes in which directly adjacent code points have a minimum

distance of only 5 pixels and up to a maximum distance of 35 pixels.

• The deviation of the sensor axis from the vertical can be between 0 ° und 40 °.

• The code field can approach the edge of the image up to a distance equivalent

to twice the code point diameter.

• The dominant polarity of the code points compared with the background is

required uniformly for all points (as it was during the training procedure). Slight

shadows or shiny areas are tolerated.

• The ratio of the distance to the closest neighbor and the diameter of any code

point can be between 2 and 0.8.

• Although code points must be printed according to a regular square grid

pattern, individual points can be displaced from their ideal position by up to 1/3

of the grid unit. Even slight parallelogram-shaped distortion is tolerated.

• With large-image but small-dimensioned codes, slight curves in the printed

material surface are tolerated. With high-value codes (for example, more than

14 x 14) or a strongly inclined sensor axis, curves are not allowed.

• Large tolerance of background disturbances that cannot be described

quantitatively

• Large tolerance of poor contrast conditions

• Due to the limited image resolution, codes with a maximum code dimension of

72x72 can be read.

In terms of these limit characteristics and when using minimum read rates due to

the requirements of the application (can be set with the "Cycletimelimit" parameter)

the tolerances are generally restricted, in some cases in stages, or other conditions

come into play. The limits described below are intended mainly as guidelines since

the actual conditions in a real application cannot be assessed accurately in

advance. It is therefore conceivable that higher read rates can be achieved even if

individual conditions are not fully adhered to.

Product Overview

Processing Method for Reliable Reading of Difficult Data Matrix Codes and

Vericodes

Settings:

• Speed = low

• Exposure = Manual or Auto V1 or Auto

The self-adapting recognition method of VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr allows the most

difficult codes to be read reliably. The most reliable detection is reached by

VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr when you make adequate time available for adaption by

setting a high cycle time limit.

The recognition method is designed for a variety of practical situations in which

various aspects of the read configuration cannot be considered ideal. For example:

• Any alignment and position of the code in the image

• Reading codes even when dots overlap or are largely isolated

• Reading codes recorded mirror-inverted

• Tolerance of distortion, due for example to inclined installation of the image

sensor (view angle down to a lower limit of approximately 50° to the printed

surface)

• Resistant to similar-looking foreign objects in the area of the code

• Resistant to interference patterns (grooves, granularity) in the area of the code

• Good tolerance of contrast fluctuations

• Good range of imaging size from 5 to 35 pixels per dot

Rectangular or square codes (with data matrix codes with maximum dimensions of

72 x 72 dots) can be read, whereby the brightness polarity (bright on dark or dark

on bright) is unimportant.

If individual conditions are particularly favorable and stable in a concrete situation

(and therefore less effort is required for internal adaption), the read rate of

VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr can reach a peak of 20 per second. You can influence this

by setting the "Speed" and "Cycle time limit" parameters as described below.

Product Overview

Processing Method for Fast Reading of Data Matrix Codes and Vericodes with a

Guaranteed Read Rate up to 5Hz

Settings:

• Speed = medium

• Exposure:

- = Manual: guaranteed read rate of 5 Hz

- = Auto V1 and Auto: guaranteed read rate of 3.3 Hz

These read rates are achieved under the following conditions:

• The code dimension must not be greater than 40 x 40 dots.

• The code must be positioned so that there is always a clearance of at least 3

dots to the edge of the image.

• The code should not make contact with any other objects in the image (keep

the quiet zone free!)

• To allow the code to be found quickly, there must be no other objects (bus

structures count here as well) in the image with enclosed rectangle and of a

comparable size to the trained code. (See also the two following figures.)

• The minimum dot size is 5 pixels per dot without restrictions.

• The view angle must be greater than 70°.

The following figure shows you an illegal constellation for guaranteed read rates:

Two neighboring objects in the image have a rectangular border of a size similar to

that of the code.

A5E00475759-01 1-13

Product Overview

The following figure shows you a legal constellation for guaranteed read rates: All

neighboring objects are clearly of a different size from the code. In this case,

rotation of the code from exposure to exposure would be acceptable since there is

no rectangle of another object that is compatible with the largest possible rectangle

around the code.

Note

Operating and monitoring via the setup support can lead to longer cycle times.

Processing Method for Fast Reading of Data Matrix Codes with a Guaranteed

Read Rate of 20Hz

Settings:

• Speed = high

• Exposure = manual (due to the short processing times, automatic exposure is

not possible with this method.)

These read rates are achieved under the following conditions:

• The illumination must be stable enough so that automatic shutter control is not

necessary.

• The code dimension must not be greater than 20 x 20 dots.

• Since the image is recorded "undersampled", the dots of the code must have a

minimum size of 10 pixels

• The code must be positioned in the sensor image so that there is always a

clearance of at least 3 dots to the edge of the image.

• The code must not make contact with any other objects in the image, the quiet

zone must be kept free.

• To allow the code to be found quickly, there must be no other objects (bus

structures count here as well) in the image with enclosed rectangle and of a

comparable size to the trained code. (See also the two following figures.)

• The diameter of the dots must be uniform over the entire code field. The

contrast between dots and the background must be approximately the same

over the entire code field.

3.1 Installing Components for VS 130-2

Step Activity

1 A Arrange the sensor head so that reflections are kept to a minimum. The angle of its central

axis should be typically 15° from vertical (angle α) (permitted range of angles for data matrix

and Vericode: 0 ≤ α ≤ 40°, for QR and PDF417 code: 0 ≤ α ≤ 30°).

A5E00475759-01 3-1

Installation

Step Activity

1b If there is still too much reflection at an angle of 15°, select an arrangement in which the

sensor head and the ring flash are not concentric.

Note:

The mechanism for mounting the ring flash is not supplied with the product.

If the ring flash does not meet your requirements, please contact your sales partner who will

be able to recommend other suppliers of lighting for the VS 130-2C.

1c With both arrangements, maintain a clearance between the end of the sensor head and the

code to be read that is suitable for the lens you are using.

Caution:

If you have a large code area and the sensor is inclined at a large angle to the code area and

there is only a short distance between the sensor and code area, this can lead to image

distortion and diminished recognition performance.

2 Install the processing unit so that it is easily accessible for the operator.

3 Install the external triggering unit, for example a light barrier.

4 Start the setup support on the PG/PC, and switch the processing unit to the Adjust mode. You

then see an image as seen by the sensor head.

• Check the trigger signal. by selecting the "Trg. only" check box in the "Read settings"

group of the "Adjust" task. Check whether VS 130–2 can read the codes with the sensor

head and ring flash in the current position. If necessary, correct the trigger point and/or

position of the sensor head.

• Select suitable values for the shutter speed and brightness. The image should not be too

bright.

Caution: If Exposure is set to Auto V1 or Auto, the code must remain fully in the image for at

least 100 ms.

As soon as after "Recognition" the message "Successfully finished" appears, the code has

been successfully decoded. You will see the result of the read in the "Result" box.

3.3 Guidelines on Interference-Proof Installation

To avoid interference, you must shield your system. Low-frequency (LF) and high-

frequency (HF) interference signals can result in an incorrect response if the

system is badly grounded or not shielded.

Interference signals can be caused, for example, by switching relays or contactors

(high rates of change in current or voltage, HF interference signals) or by different

ground potentials between two parts of a system (LF interference signals).

Using / Installing Interference-Proof Cable

• Always use the included patch cord to connect the sensor head.

• All plug-in connections must be secured by screws or a locking mechanism.

• Signal lines must not run parallel to power cables. A separate cable channel

must be used with a minimum clearance of 50 cm from power cables.

Note

For more detailed information, refer to the installation manual SIMATIC S7-300

Programmable Controller, Hardware and Installation in the section on "Wiring".

3.4 Guidelines for Installing PROFIBUS DP or

PROFINET I/O

If you are using PROFIBUS DP or PROFINET I/O (to control the device and/or to

transfer the results) the installation and configuration guidelines must be kept to.

You will find this information in the installation manual SIMATIC S7-300

Programmable Controller, Hardware and Installation.

5.1 Overview

There are two basic ways of controlling the VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr:

• Using the Setup Support

• Using the Processing Unit

With a few exceptions, you can set all the parameters with either method. This is

illustrated based on the example of the "IP Mode" parameter:

• In the setup support, you will find this parameter in the "Connections" task in

the "Interfaces" tab in the "Ethernet" group in the "IP Mode" drop-down list box.

• On the processing unit, it is available at the ADJUST menu level (Connect >

Ports > Ethernet > IP Mode).

5.2 Working with the Processing Unit

The display of the processing unit is used to display the currently read code and to

navigate through the menus and make entries.

Example of the display of a code:

5.3 Working with the Setup Support

To make use of the setup support of SIMATIC VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr, the following

requirements must be met:

• PC/PG with the Microsoft Windows XP Professional operating system with

Internet Explorer 6.0 and Microsoft Java VM or Sun Java VM (see also

www.java.sun.com/J2SE) version J2SE 1.3.1 or J2SE 1.4.2_06 or J2SE 5.0

• Intel or compatible processor, minimum Pentium 133 MHz

• Graphics card/monitor with at least 65536 colors and a resolution of at least

640*480 pixels(The pages of the setup support are optimized for 65536 colors

and a resolution of 1024*768 pixels.)

• Ethernet port with up to 100 Mbps (protocol: TCP/IP)

To work with the setup support on the processing unit, you must establish a

connection from your Web browser (for example Internet Explorer) for setup

support. How to establish a connection is described in detail in the online help in

Establishing Connections.

Note

The online help is available on the CD. This ensures that you can refer to the

As an example, you can see the "Adjust Sensor" dialog below.

Note

If the DISA bit is set, in other words, when VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr is controlled by a

programmable controller, you must log on at the processing unit as follows:

1. Make sure that only one PC accesses the processing unit (red lock with

green D).

2. Place the mouse pointer on the currently logged-on user (top right) and click.

This brings you to the "Options Part 3/4: Security".

3. Log on as a user ("User1" or "Service") who is allowed to take control of the

VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr ("Take control" check box selected). Remember,

however, that logging on accesses control of the VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr by the

programmable controller (only relevant for functions that require the DISA bit,

for example, change codes and train code).

Lighting & Acquisition.

The multilight function is only possible if you have connected a multiplexer and

more than one lamp. Enable the "Multilight" function in the "Lighting and

Acquisition" group box to be able to select the lamp used for the image capture

from the setup support. When using the multilight function, only one of the lamps

you select from the drop-down list box is ever active. In this mode, the result bits

cannot be output over the DI/DO interface.

Under "Autom. Exposure", you can decide whether the entire image area or a

smaller area (region of interest) is used to calculate the optimum exposure

parameters. You can change this region of interest by changing to the "Adjustment"

dialog and moving or scaling (only possible when "Freeze/ROI" mode is activated)

the red frame in the preview window.

With "Use shuttersp. offset", you decide whether or not the automatically calculated

exposure time is corrected by the value of the shutter speed offset (Part 2 of the

"Options" dialog).

Acceleration

In the "Speedup" group box, you make the settings to speed up image processing.

This is effective only when Speed = low (see Part 1 of the "Options" dialog).

You have the following options:

• Use ROI": The region of interest set in the "Adjustment" dialog is used in the

image processing.

• "Decoder order": Here, you specify the order of the code types in which the

processing unit attempts to decode a code when training, when reading

(without prior training) and in adjustment mode.

• With data matrix codes, there are the speedup parameters Polarity, Dimension

and View that can each have the value "trained" or "dynamic":

- Polarity:

When Polarity = "trained" is set, the processing unit does not decode the

read code if bright and dark dots are swapped over compared with the

trained code. When Polarity = "dynamic" is set, the processing unit

decodes the read code even if bright and dark dots are swapped over

compared with the trained code.

- Dimension:

If Dimension = "trained", the processing unit does not decode the read

code if the number of dots is different from the trained code. If Dimension =

"dynamic", the processing unit decodes the read code even if the number

of dots is different from the trained code.

- View:

If View = "trained" is set , the processing unit does not decode the read

code if it is mirrored compared with the trained code. If View = "dynamic" is

set , the processing unit decodes the read code even if it is mirrored

compared with the trained code.

Multicode

The "Multicode" mode allows you to capture and evaluate several images at the

same time with one trigger. To use this function, choose a code set number (1-14)

in the "Code set" drop-down list box and select the codes to be included in the

code set in "Contains codes". Based on the code set, the processing unit obtains

the settings with which the images will be captured at the first trigger and the

trained codes with which they will be compared.

At each further trigger, the processing unit starts at the image of the code that was

last read successfully. If no code can be read, the current decoding order is

maintained.

Note

If a code set contains a code number under which no code was previously trained,

you cannot use this code set for evaluation. With the "Info" job, you can see the

code number under which trained codes are stored in Part 2/4: Code(s).

5.4 Operator Control over Personal Digital Assistant (PDA)

5.4.1 Prerequisites

To be able to operate the Vision Sensor SIMATIC VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr over a

PDA, the following requirements must be met:

• WLAN-compliant PDA with the Windows Mobile 2003 operating system, for

example, Fujitsu-Siemens Pocket LOOX 610

• Macromedia Flash Player 6 is installed on the PDA

• Established connection between the PDA and the processing unit over a

WLAN router

How you establish this connection is described in Establishing a connection

between PDA and processing unit.

We recommend a work memory of 128 Mbytes or larger.

5.4.2 Establishing a Connection between PDA and Processing Unit

To establish a connection between PDA and processing unit, follow the steps

outlined below:

1. Install and configure your WLAN router.

You require an Ethernet connection between your PC and the router (for example,

Siemens Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable). Configure the router as DHCP server and, if

necessary, change its IP address. To set the configuration, you work in the user

interface of the router over a JAVA-compliant browser by entering the preset IP

address.

2. Configure the processing unit as a DHCP client.

You do this in the Connect> Ports> Ethernet> IP Mode menu by setting "DHCP".

3. Connect the WLAN router to the processing unit over an Ethernet cable and turn

the processing unit on. Then check the IP address assigned to the processing unit

by the router in the Connect> Ports> Ethernet> IP Address menu.

4. Enable Wireless LAN on your PDA.

Depending on the PDA, you will either have to install a wireless network adapter

or simply enable the Wireless LAN integrated on the PDA.

5.4.3 Starting or stopping setup support from the PDA

It is assumed that the connection between PDA and processing unit is established.

Proceed as follows:

1. Start the Internet Explorer on the PDA, enter the IP address in the "Address" input

box and then press "Enter".

The start page of the setup support appears.

2. Click on "Live image for PDA".

The user interface of the PDA for the VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr appears.

Note

If you have started the user interface of the PDA, you can only run the setup

support from a PC/PG in read-only mode.

If you want to terminate the connection to the processing unit, turn off the PDA.

Closing the Internet Explorer does not terminate the connection.

5.4.4 User interface of the PDA

Overview

The user interface consists of the following elements:

• Live image

• Text display row

• Operator input row with the mode button, the "Trg" trigger button (VS 130-2vcr

only) and the code selection.

Note

If there is a connection between the Web browser of a PC and the processing unit

or the VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr is being controlled by an automation system, all

buttons are disabled and "(Read Only Mode)" is displayed in the text display row.

As long as no physical connection can be established to the processing unit,

"Connecting…" is displayed.

The labeling of the buttons and their function depend on the current status of the

VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr. This also applies to the strings of the text display row. This

is explained in detail below.

5.4.5 Known PDA problems

Two known PDA problems are described below:

• The cache is full after some time.

The Web browsers of some PDAs have the unwanted tendency to store more

and more data in the cache as time goes on without releasing the memory

again. As a result, the Web browser no longer runs.

• If you click the "Close" button, the Web browser is removed from the screen of

some PDAs but continues to run in the background. In conjunction with the first

problem explained above, this soon leads to memory overflow.

You can counter these problems with the measures described below. Follow the

order of steps below and following each step, check whether the memory used has

been released again. If it is released, the remaining steps are unnecessary.

1. Exit the Web browser as follows: Start > Settings > "System" tab > Memory >

"Running Programs" tab, select "Internet Explorer" and click on the "Stop".

2. Internet Explorer: Tools > Options… > "Memory" tab, click on the "Delete Files"

button.

3. Turn the PDA off.

4. Run a soft reset on the PDA (usually by pressing a hidden button with a pen or

similar).

5. Run a hard reset on the PDA.

6 Process Interface

6.1 Introduction

As an alternative to controlling from the operator panel or using the setup support,

you can also control SIMATIC VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr from a programmable

controller. This makes it possible to train and work almost automatically.

Control over PROFIBUS DP and PROFINET IO is only possible with the VS 130-2,

control over the I/O interface "DI/DO", on the other hand, is possible with VS 130-2

and VS 130-2vcr.

Note

The automatic training and changing of codes by a programmable controller is only

possible with active setup support when in the "Options part 3/4: Security", the

check box "Take control" is not enabled for the current user.

6.2 Integrating the DP slave VS 130-2 in HW Config

The supplied device master data file SIEM8111.GSD contains the PROFIBUS

properties of the VS 130-2 DP standard slave. If you are using a STEP 7 version

earlier than V5.3 SP1, the Vision Sensor VS 130-2 is not yet in the modules

catalog in HW Config. In this case, you must add it to the catalog with Options >

Install GSD... . Remember that the corresponding bitmap file VS1X0__N.DIB must

be in the same folder as the GSD file.

You can download both files from the Internet at

http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/llisapi.dll?func=cslib.csinfo&lang=de&o

bjID=10807086&subtype=133100.

The Vision Sensor VS 130-2 then appears in the modules catalog under

PROFIBUS DP \ Additional Field Devices \ General \ Machine Vision

(see screenshot below).

In the configuration example above, the control byte of the VS 130-2 was set to

output address 0 and the status byte of the VS 130-2 was set to input address 0 of

the CPU (DP master, slot 1). If these addresses are in the process image of OB1

(process image partition "OB1 PI"), you can work here in OB1 with process image

access (for example "A I0.6" or "S Q0.1"). If this is not the case, you must work

with direct I/O access (for example "L PIB 0").

In the configuration example above, the start of the 16 word long consistent

communication area of the Vision Sensor VS 130-2 was set to input address 1 and

output address 1 (slot 2). If these addresses are in the process image of OB1

(process image partition "OB1 PI"), you can work here in OB1 with process image

access (e.g. "L EW 2", "T AB 1"), without violating the consistency (This is only

valid for CPUs which transfer consistent user data per process image, see the note

below). If, on the other hand, these addresses are not in the process image of

OB1, you must access the communication area of the VS 130-2 using SFCs 14

"DPRD_DAT" and 15 "DPWR_DAT" to ensure consistency.

Vision Sensor SIMATIC VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr

6-2 A5E00475759-01

Process Interface

Note

The consistent user data transfer per process image is supported by the following

S7 CPUs:

• from the CPU 318 and S7-400 CPUs as of firmware version V3.0.0

• from all S7-300 CPUs with MMC

for all other S7-300 and S7-400 CPUs, the mandatory installation of SFCs 14

"DPRD_DAT" and 15 "DPWR_DAT" is required.

The Vision Sensor VS 130 -2 detects the transmission rate on PROFIBUS

automatically. Even if the transmission rate has changed, this is detected

automatically. The following values possible:

• 9.6 Kbps

• 19.2 Kbps

• 45.45 Kbps

• 93.75 Kbps

• 187.5 Kbps

• 500 Kbps

• 1.5 Mbps

• 3 Mbps

• 6 Mbps

• 12 Mbps

The PROFIBUS address of the VS 130-2 is set in the Settings > Ports > DP Addr.

menu of the processing unit. Possible values are 1, ... 125.

Changing the PROFIBUS address via PROFIBUS is not supported.

If you assign parameter values to the Vision Sensor VS 130-2 via PROFIBUS, you

can only set its default values (all zero). If you enter values other than zero here, a

slave diagnostic message is generated ("Invalid DP parameters"). If you use an S7

CPU as the DP master, a diagnostic interrupt is triggered (no OB82 start because

the CPU is in STOP): "Faulty module" is entered in the diagnostic buffer and the

"SF" LED lights up.

If you encounter problems when integrating in HW Config, you will find information

on possible causes in Product description and Important Requirements for

Installation.

You will find the PROFINET properties of the I/O device VS 130-2 in the supplied

GSDML-V1.0-Siemens-VS130-2-20041021.xml (General Station Description) file. If

you are using a STEP 7 version earlier than V5.4, the Vision Sensor VS 130-2 is

not yet in the modules catalog in HW Config. In this case, you must add it to the

catalog with Options > Install GSD... . Remember that the corresponding bitmap

file VS100.bmp must be in the same folder as the GSD file.

The Vision Sensor VS 130-2 is in the modules catalog under PROFINETIO \

General \ VS100 (see screenshot below).

In the configuration example above, the control byte of the VS 130-2 was set to

output address 0 and the status byte of the VS 130-2 was set to input address 0 of

the CPU (DP master, slot 1). If these addresses are in the process image of OB1

access (for example "A I0.6" or "S Q0.1"). If this is not the case, you must work

with direct I/O access (for example "L PIB 0").

In the configuration example above, the start of the 16 word long consistent

communication area of the Vision Sensor VS 130-2 was set to input address 256

and output address 256 (slot 2). If these addresses are in the process image of

OB1 (process image partition "OB1 PI"), you can work here in OB1 with process

image access (e.g. "L EW 2", "T AB 1"), without violating the consistency (This is

only valid for CPUs which transfer consistent user data per process image, see the

note below). If, on the other hand, these addresses are not in the process image of

OB1, you must access the communication area of the VS 130-2 using SFCs 14

"DPRD_DAT" and 15 "DPWR_DAT" to ensure consistency.

The Vision Sensor VS 130 -2 detects the transmission rate on PROFINET

automatically. PROFINET is operated in 100 Mbps full duplex mode.

Follow the procedures below when entering the device name for the

VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr:

Step Activity

1 In HW Config, open the properties window of the VS 130-2 and enter the device

name there. When you are done, save and compile the hardware configuration.

2 Inform the VS 130-2 of the device name you just specified. This is done in three

ways:

• In HW Config, select PLC > Ethernet > Assign Ethernet Address... and click

the "Browse" button. Following this, all the devices connected to the PNIO

system will be displayed (Caution: VS 130-2 must be in IP mode "PNIO"

otherwise it is not displayed!). Select the VS 130-2 using its MAC address

and identify it, if need be, using the "Blink" button (The "LINK" LED will blink

at the Ethernet connector on the VS 130-2.). Enter the device name and

click on the "Assign Name" button.

• Enter the device name directly in the processing unit (Connect > Ports >

PNIO > Devname).

• Assign and transfer the device name using the applet (Connections

Part 1/3: Ports, PROFINET IO, Device name parameter).

Note

When installing a CPU 317-2 PN/DP, in the individual network in the Properties

window of the PROFINET I/O system (slot X2) on the "Options" tab, you have to

select "Transmission medium/duplex": "Automatic Settings"

Attention

VS 130-2 does not support an update time less than 4 ms and cannot be set to

lower update times. If you are setting up the configuration with STEP 7 V5.3 +

SP1, the minimum update time for all PROFINET IO devices of the affected

PROFINET system changes to 4 ms.

Of the "Send" user data interface, bytes 1 to 31 are relevant, of the "Receive" user

data interface, only bytes 1 and 4 are relevant.

If these two user data interfaces are not located in the process image of OB1, you

must use SFC 14 "DPRD_DAT" during the data transfer from the "Send" user data

interface of the processing unit to the DP master to ensure data consistency. In the

opposite direction, SFC 15 "DPWR_DAT" must be used for data transmission from

the DP master to the "Receive" user data interface.

6.5.3 Sample program for data exchange if code length <= 27 bytes

Below, you will see an example program for data exchange when the code length

is a maximum of 27 bytes.

Note

The example program is only executable on the following S7 CPUs:

• on a CPU 318 and the S7-400 CPUs as of firmware version V3.0.0

• on S7-300 CPUs with MMC

for all other S7-300 and S7-400 CPUs, you have to use the SFC 14s and 15s for

all access to both user data interfaces.

Program information

Only the pure result string is output (data ID B#16#81).

The DP master or I/O controller does not check how many bytes the processing

unit has supplied, but always reads 27 bytes without any monitoring.

The start of the "Send" user data interface is at address 4 of the process image

input table. The start of the "Receive" user data interface is at address 4 of the

process image output table.

To ensure consistency over the entire range (32 bytes) there must be no process

image update during the program shown below.

The user data are stored in data block DB17 starting at byte 4.

6.5.4 Programming the Data Block

Handshaking

The following section introduces a handshake mechanism that ensures the

consistency of all the data sent from the processing unit to the DP master or

I/O controller regardless of any configured PROFIBUS or PROFINET consistency

mechanisms. This mechanism must be used for every transfer, even when this is

only from one data block, for example, when reading out the code number selected

on the VS 130-2.

Please remember to enter the required data ID in byte 4 of the "Receive" user data

interface before the first transfer.

Note

Handshaking is executable in the specified form only on the following S7 CPUs:

• on a CPU 318 and the S7-400 CPUs as of firmware version V3.0.0

• on S7-300 CPUs with MMC

for all other S7-300 and S7-400 CPUs, you have to use the SFC 14s and 15s for

all access to both user data interfaces.

Step Activity in the DP Master or I/O Controller User Program

1 Query byte 1 of the "Send" user data interface cyclically. As long as this byte has the value

0, there is no new data. If it has the value 1, go to step 2.

2 The value 1 in byte 1 of the "Send" user data interface means: VS 130-2 has started data

transfer.

Read the net total length of the data to be transferred from bytes 2 and 3 of the "Send" user

data interface and the user data of the first data packet from bytes 5 to 31.

3 Acknowledge correct receipt of the first data packet by writing the value 1 in byte 1 of the

"Receive" user data interface.

The processing unit polls byte 1 of the "Receive" user data interface. As soon as it reads the

value 1, it fills bytes 5 to 31 of the "Send" user data interface with the user data of the

second data packet and enters the number of this data package (in this case 2) in byte 1.

4 Query byte 1 of the "Send" user data interface cyclically. As long as this still contains the

number of the previously transferred data packet (1), there is no new data. As soon as byte

1 has the value 2 (number of the next data packet), go to step 5.

5 Read the user data of the second data packet from bytes 5 to 31.

6 Acknowledge correct receipt of the second data packet by writing the value 2 in byte 1 of the

"Receive" user data interface.

... ...

Last - 4 Query byte 1 of the "Send" user data interface cyclically. As long as this contains the number

of the last but one data packet, the data of the last data packet is not yet available. As soon

as byte 1 has the number of the last data packet, go to next step.

Last - 3 Read the user data of the last data packet from bytes 5 to 31.

Process Interface

Step Activity in the DP Master or I/O Controller User Program

Last - 2 Acknowledge receipt of the last data packet by writing the number of the last data packet in

byte 1 of the "Receive" user data interface.

The processing unit polls byte 1 of the "Receive" user data interface. As soon as it reads the

number of the last data packet, it writes the value 0 to bytes 2 and 3 of the user data

interface and also to byte 1. The value 0 in byte 1 signals the end of the current data transfer

to the DP master.

Last - 1 Query byte 1 of the "Send" user data interface cyclically. As soon as the value 0 is read, go

to last step.

Last Acknowledge correct receipt of all data by writing the value 0 in byte 1 of the "Receive" user

data interface.

Response to Problems, Time-outs, and Errors

The processing unit monitors the following:

• The time between the arrival of two acknowledgments from the DP master is

monitored for the time-out set in the Connect > Ports > DP > Timeout or

Connect > Ports > PNIO > Timeout menu.

• The correct sequence of the acknowledged data packets of the DP master or

I/O controller is monitored.

If an error occurs, the processing unit enters B#16#FF in byte 1 of the "Send" user

data interface and so aborts the current data transmission.

It is advisable to implement the following monitoring functions in the user program

of the DP master or I/O controller:

• Monitoring of the time between arrival of two consecutive data packets.

• Monitor the correct order of the data packets sent by the processing unit.

• Check whether the total length of the user data actually transferred matches

the net total length of data to be transferred as specified by the processing unit

at the start of the data transfer.

If an error occurs, writing B#16#FF to byte 1 of the "Receive" user data interface

causes the current data transmission to be aborted.

6.5.5 FB 79 "VS130-2_CONTROL"

Description

With FB 79 "VS130-2_CONTROL", you have a convenient means of

communication with SIMATIC VS 130-2. You simply specify the job and the block

handles communication over the public interfaces described in Integrating the

PROFINET IO Device VS 130-2 in HW Config.

The following bits of the control byte must be processed outside the FB.

• TRG (Trigger): Start Processing

• RES (Reset): Acknowledgment of an error (see Error Messages)

The FB monitors only the pure data traffic between VS 130-2 and the controller, in

other words, the DONE parameter does not provide any information on the actual

read result. To obtain a good/bad read evaluation, evaluate the following result bits

of the status byte:

• READ

• MATCH

• NOK

The following tasks are possible:

• Abort the current job

• Select Code

• Train a code

• Output the result string

• Output the position of the code

• Output the quality characteristics of the currently read code

• Output the number of the currently selected code

• Output the current mode of the VS 130-2

• Reset the DISA control signal

Whether or not a job can be correctly executed depends on the current mode of the

VS 130-2 and its parameter assignment. Which job is possible in which mode of

the VS 130-2 is explained below.

For almost all tasks, FB79 sets the DISA control signal for the VS 130-2 to TRUE.

This prevents the VS 130-2 from being controlled from the keyboard or an operator

panel at the same time. The exceptions are the four following tasks:

• Reset the DISA control signal

• Abort the current job. The FB does not change DISA.

• Output the number of the currently selected code. The FB does not change

DISA.

• Output the current mode of the VS 130-2. The FB does not change DISA.

Vision Sensor SIMATIC VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr

A5E00475759-01 6-19

Process Interface

At the start of the new job, the output parameters are reset.

Caution: A multiple FB79 call with the same instance is not permitted.

Please note that with the parameters of the page "Connections Part 3/3:

Integration" (setup support) or the "Connect > Integrate" menu (processing unit),

you can influence the processing of the FB:

• If you want to use the FB to read a result string, the output of the result string

must be set on PROFIBUS DP or PROFINET IO. For the jobs "Change code"

(COMMAND =W#16#0001), "Train code" (COMMAND =W#16#0002) and

"Output the currently selected code" (COMMAND =W#16#0003, the number of

the selected code is requested by the processing unit. The output of the result

string must therefore be set on the PROFIBUS DP or PROFINET IO for this

reason.

• The ports for the DISA, SEL0 to SEL3, TRN, RES, IN_OP, TRD, RDY signals

must always be set to PROFIBUS DP or PROFINET IO.

• The port setting for the result bits READ, MATCH, NOK is irrelevant for the FB.

Note

If you use the FB, only the bits RES and TRG may be affected by your program in

the control byte of the processing unit. All other bits of the control byte are affected

by the FB.

How It works

FB79 "VS130-2_CONTROL" operates asynchronously; in other words, execution

can extend over several FB calls. You start execution of the job by calling the FB

with a job number higher than 0 .

Execution of the job is completed when ACTIVE takes on the value FALSE and

either DONE or ERROR takes on the value TRUE (positive-going edge). Please

remember that various jobs are handled in one CPU cycle and therefore ACTIVE

does not take on the value TRUE. This applies to the jobs "Read out mode" and

"Reset DISA bit". In some cases, it may also not be possible to detect an edge

change at DONE or ERROR.

You should therefore evaluate the DONE and ERROR parameters at each block

call. If the job was completed without error, DONE = TRUE. You should also

evaluate ERRCODE, in this case, to be informed of warnings from the FB.

As long as ACTIVE has taken on the value TRUE, you have to call the FB with

identical assignment of the COMMAND input parameters. During this time, is also

not possible to start a new job.

Read jobs are cyclical jobs. This means that after starting a job with

COMMAND=W#16#0081 to 008F, ACTIVE takes on the value TRUE. ACTIVE

retains this value as long as the job is aborted.

Vision Sensor SIMATIC VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr

6-20 A5E00475759-01

Process Interface

The respective read cycle (that is, the transfer of a complete result string) is

complete when ACTIVE takes on the value TRUE and either DONE or ERROR has

taken on the value TRUE (positive-going edge). If you want to start an additional

job while a read job is running, you have to abort the read job. This occurs by

calling the FB with COMMAND=W#16#0000. In this case, ACTIVE does not take

on the value FALSE. Depending on whether a result string is being transferred or

not, either DONE or ERROR takes on the value TRUE. If ERROR takes on the

value TRUE, ERRCODE does not take on the value DW#16#00010007.

Note

If an error occurs, set the processing unit to the STOP mode, correct and

acknowledge the error. You can then set the processing unit back to RUN mode

with a code change in a trained code (COMMAND = W#16#0001).

Sequence when Aborting a Job (COMMAND = W#16#0000)

You can only abort read jobs:

• Read jobs (COMMAND = W#16#0081 to W#16#008F )

The block signals completion of the job abort with ACTIVE = FALSE.

If a transfer is active when the job is aborted, the transfer is aborted and the error

signaled with a suitable error message in the ERRCODE parameter. ERROR has

the value TRUE and DONE has the value FALSE. A transfer is active if DONE and

ERROR take on the value FALSE.

Is no transfer is active at the time of the abort, on completion of the job of the

ERRCODE parameter has value 0, ERROR has value FALSE, and DONE has

value TRUE.

Procedure for job change

If reading is currently selected and you want to execute a different job, you must

stop the currently active job (see above).

Process Interface

Sequence When Changing Codes (COMMAND = W#16#0001)

If the VS 130-2 is currently executing a read job, follow the steps below:

1. Call FB79 with COMMAND=W#16#0000. This stops output of the result string (job

W#16#0081).

2. Make a code change by calling FB79 with COMMAND=W#16#0001 and PARAM=

new code number.

When the job is started, the parameters DONE and ERROR have the value

FALSE. The ACTIVE parameter changes to the value TRUE.

The block changes the code selected on the VS 130-2 to the value specified in the

PARAM1 parameter.

It then queries the code currently selected on the VS 130-2 and outputs this in the

CODE_OUT parameter.

If the currently selected code matches the code specified in the PARAM1

parameter, the ACTIVE parameter has the value FALSE and the DONE

parameter the value TRUE.

If the currently selected code does not match the code specified in the PARAM1

parameter, the ACTIVE parameter has the value FALSE and the ERROR

parameter the value TRUE. The ERRCODE parameter contains an appropriate

error message.

There is also a check to determine if the code change has been blocked by a

"Service" or "User1" user logged on via the setup support who has taken control of

the VS 130-2 and if the newly selected code has been trained. If an error is

detected, the ACTIVE parameter changes to the value FALSE and the ERROR

parameter changes to the value TRUE. The ERRCODE parameter contains an

appropriate error message.

3. Call FB79 again cyclically with COMMAND= W#16#0081.

If you attempt to cancel during an ongoing code change, the ERRCODE parameter

takes the value DW#16#00000002 but the job is processed until the end.

Note

When the code is changed, the processing unit is set to STOP for at least 150 ms

(see Selecting Modes "Select code"). In exceptional cases, a code change can

take up to 15 seconds.

If you specify the value 0 for the PARAM1 parameter, the previously selected code

is retained.

The value of PARAM1 cannot be changed before the job is completed.

Note

The following parameters must be set to PROFIBUS DP or PROFINET IO to

process the job:

• Output the result string

Sequence When Training a Code (COMMAND = W#16#0002)

To allow the FB to trigger training a code, the Connect > Integrate > Control

parameter must either have the value "DP" or the value "PNIO" on the processing

unit.

The job can only be sent when VS 130-2 is not in ERROR mode (refer to the mode

table following the parameter table).

When the job is triggered, the parameters DONE and ERROR change to the value

FALSE. The ACTIVE parameter changes to the value TRUE.

The block trains the code specified by the PARAM1 parameter.

Note

In exceptional cases, training a code can take up to 35 seconds.

The value of PARAM1 cannot be changed before the job is completed.

It then queries the code currently selected on the VS 130-2 and outputs this in the

CODE_OUT parameter.

If the currently selected code matches the code specified in the PARAM1

parameter, the ACTIVE parameter has the value FALSE and the DONE parameter

the value TRUE.

If the currently selected code does not match the code specified in the PARAM1

parameter, the ACTIVE parameter has the value FALSE and the ERROR

parameter the value TRUE. The ERRCODE parameter contains an appropriate

error message.

There is also a check to determine if the training has been blocked by a "Service"

or "User1" user logged on via the setup support who has taken control of the

VS 130-2 and if the training has been successful. If an error is detected, the

ACTIVE parameter changes to the value FALSE and the ERROR parameter

changes to the value TRUE. The ERRCODE parameter contains an appropriate

error message.

If you attempt to cancel during an ongoing training job, the ERRCODE parameter

takes the value DW#16#00000002 but the job is processed until the end.

Note

The following parameters must be set to PROFIBUS DP or PROFINET IO to

process the job:

• Output the result string

• Port for the DISA, SEL0 to SEL3, TRN, RES, IN_OP, TRD, RDY signals

Sequence When Outputting the Currently Selected Code

(COMMAND = W#16#0003)

When the job is triggered, the parameters DONE and ERROR change to the value

FALSE. The ACTIVE parameter changes to the value TRUE.

The block then queries the code currently selected on the VS 130-2 and outputs

this in the CODE_OUT parameter.

If the transfer of the code number is free of errors, the ACTIVE parameter changes

to the value FALSE and the DONE parameter changes to the value TRUE.

Note

The following parameters must be set to PROFIBUS DP or PROFINET IO to

process the job:

• Output the result string

• Port for the DISA, SEL0 to SEL3, TRN, RES, IN_OP, TRD, RDY signals

Sequence When Outputting the Mode of the VS 130-2 (COMMAND = W#16#0004)

The block recognizes the current mode based on the status byte of the VS 130-2

and outputs this in the STATE parameter:

• If the IN_OP bit is not set, state 3 (ERROR) is output.

• If the IN_OP bit is set, but the RDY bit is not set, state 2 (STOP) is output.

• If the IN_OP bit is set and the RDY bit is set, state 1 (RUN) is output.

Following this, the DONE parameter changes to the value TRUE and ACTIVE

changes to the value FALSE.

Note

Since the job is completed in one CPU cycle, no edge change can be detected in

the ACTIVE parameter. If the DONE parameter already has the value TRUE from

a previous job, an edge change can also not be detected in this parameter.

Sequence When Resetting the DISA Bit (COMMAND = W#16#0005)

The block resets the DISA bit in the control byte of the VS 130-2.

Following this, the DONE parameter changes to the value TRUE and ACTIVE

changes to the value FALSE.

Note

Since the job is completed in one CPU cycle, no edge change can be detected in

the ACTIVE parameter. If the DONE parameter already has the value TRUE from

a previous job, an edge change can also not be detected in this parameter.

The read jobs can only be sent when VS 130-2 is in RUN mode (refer to the mode

table following the parameter table).

In contrast to all other jobs, the read jobs are "permanent jobs". This means that

the ACTIVE parameter has the value TRUE even after fetching the current read

results and/or the current position and/or the quality characteristics from the

VS 130-2.

You should therefore evaluate the DONE and ERROR parameters at each block

call.

If the transfer was successful, DONE = TRUE. This only means, however, that the

transfer between processing unit and FB (CPU) has been completed error-free. In

order to find out if the DMC evaluation was successful, you have to evaluate the

bits READ (Bit 3), MATCH (Bit 4) and N_OK (Bit 5) in the status byte of the

processing unit. In this case, refer to the following table for the behavior of FB79.

You should also evaluate ERRCODE to be informed of warnings from the FB.

VS 130-2 Target Area RECV

The code could not be decoded. FB79 enters the string set in the "ReadErr" parameter.

The code was successfully decoded;

however, you have not set any

specifications.

FB79 enters the result string.

The code was successfully decoded

but does not match your

specifications.

FB79 enters the string set in the "MatchErr" or "FilterMsg"

parameter if the Match or Filter function is set. If both these

functions are selected, FB79 enters the string entered for

"MatchErr". For more detailed information on "MatchErr" and

"FilterMsg", please refer to Chapter 5.

The code was successfully decoded

and matches the specifications.

FB79 enters the result string.

Process the data entered in RECV before the next trigger otherwise the

consistency of this data cannot be guaranteed! You should also evaluate the

LENGTH parameter because the receive area is written only up to this length.

You can abort an active read job by calling FB79 with COMMAND = W#16#0000.

If an error occurs during execution of the job or while aborting an in-process read

job, ERROR = TRUE. In this case, the ERRCODE parameter contains a code for

the cause of the error that has occurred. FB79 writes B#16#00 to the RECV target

area.

Note

The following parameters must be set to PROFIBUS DP or PROFINET IO to

process the job:

• Output the result string

• Port for the DISA, SEL0 to SEL3, TRN, RES, IN_OP, TRD, RDY signals

Startup reaction

If an error occurs (ERRCODE <> DW#16#0000 0000), after calling an interrupt OB

(for example OB82) and after a STOP-RUN change on the CPU, you must initialize

the FB once with RESET=TRUE. Please enter a corresponding first call in your

user program.

Error Information

If an error occurred, ERROR is set to TRUE. The precise cause of the error is then

displayed in ERRCODE. Apart from this, there are also warnings with which

ERROR is set to FALSE. These indicate an error situation that does not lead to the

current job being aborted.

If ERRCODE <> DW#16#0000 0000 following an FB call, call the FB again with

RESET=TRUE to reset the error information in the FB.

Note

By calling the FB with RESET=TRUE, you only acknowledge error displays of the

FB. To acknowledge errors of the VS 130-2 (for example transmit error), set the

RES bit of the control byte (see Assignments for PROFIBUS DP and PROFINET

IO-relevant interfaces for the processing unit or Error messages).

6.6 Sample Programs

6.6.1 Sample Program for Interfacing the VS 130-2 to a SIMATIC

Controller with the Aid of FB79

You will find the program described here on the manuals/commissioning CD in

Examples\SIMATIC.

Including FB79 in a STEP 7 Program

In the supplied STEP 7 program, the FC1 function contains a simple example for

outputting the result string. With FC2, you can bring about a code change. As

default, only FC1 is called in OB1. To activate FC2, you must either delete the first

network with the FC1 call or skip it.

Note

You may only apply the value W#16#0081 (output result string) to the COMMAND

parameter when bit 2 in the status byte (corresponds to the RDY signal) is set to

TRUE. Otherwise you receive the error "Illegal mode".

Process interfacing

The processing unit is connected over PROFIBUS DP or PROFINET IO to a

programmable controller. A light barrier or a Bero is also used to trigger and must

be read in over a digital input module. The received data is stored in data block

DB48 in bytes 0 to 500.

Adding the code change

Specify the number of the required code in memory byte MB200. The code change

is then automatic. The correct order of the commands is maintained. The FB

changes to the code specified in PARAM1.

Attention

To avoid undefined statuses in the plant, you should only change codes when the

plant is stopped or in manual mode.

OB100 startup OB

Set the RESET input of FB79 in OB100 to initialize the FB. This input is reset again

when FB79 is called.

6.6.3 Sample Program for Archiving Diagnostic Information on a PC

or a PG

You will find the program described here on the manuals/commissioning CD in

Examples\Diagnostics.

With the "mmidiag" sample, you can archive diagnostic data records in the form of

csv files and diagnostic images as bitmaps on a PC. In addition to the diagnostic

images, a text file is transferred that contains details of the image.

Process interfacing

The configuration described in the section Reading codes or checking quality in a

PROFINET environment and outputting over Ethernet is used as the basis. It is

characterized by the PC or PG for archiving the diagnostic data records and/or

diagnostic images not being connected to the processing unit over RS-232 but over

Ethernet.

Setup support

Make the following settings on the setup support:

• Connections dialog, Ports tab:

In "Archiving/MMI", enter the IP address and the port of the PC/PG on which

you want to archive the diagnostic information.

• Connections dialog, Integration tab:

In "Diagnostic transfer", select what you want to archive. only diagnostic data

records, only diagnostic images or both

Example Program

Make sure that set the same values in the "Connection" sample as on the setup

support in the Connections dialog, Ports tab.

Enter the maximum size of a csv file in "Options". If the current csv file exceeds this

size, the sample program creates a new csv file. In the "Timeout" input box, you

can also specify the time in seconds after which the sample program stops itself if it

has not received a response from the processing unit during this time. This allows

you to check whether the connection to the processing unit is still established.

In "Output", you specify the folders in which the diagnostic images and the csv files

will be stored.

Once you have clicked the "Start" button, the program waits for the connection to

be established by the processing unit. The transfer of the diagnostic data begins

after the connection has been established.

The file names have the following structure:

• csv files: diagrecs_<date>_<time>.csv

• Bitmaps: diagimg_<date>_<time>.bmp

• Details of the image: diagimg_<date>_<time>.txt

7.1 Introduction

With certain operator input and if an error occurs in the processing, the

VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr provides you with adequate diagnostic information. This can

take the following form:

• Message from setup support

• Message on the display of the processing unit

• Activation of the "BF" LED

• Slave Diagnostics

7.2 Diagnostics with Messages

Overview

A distinction is made between the following message types:

• Error Messages

• Warnings/Notes

• Read results

All three types of message are displayed on the display of the processing unit.

Most messages of the error message type also trigger a diagnostic interrupt on the

DP master via PROFIBUS.

In "Error Messages", "Warnings/Notes" and "Read Results", you will find all the

messages, their meaning and a description of how to remedy the situation.

7.2.1 Error Messages

When error messages are generated, the "IN_OP" signal (in operation) is reset and

the SF LED (group error) is lit.

With the exception of the error messages PROFIBUS DP Error and PROFINET IO

Error, you must acknowledge all errors that occur by setting the DISA and the RES

bit of the control byte.

If VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr is connected to PROFIBUS DP or PROFINET I/O, all

error messages trigger a diagnostic interrupt on the respective DP master or I/O

controller, for which there is a number in the "Bit no. as of Diagnostic Byte 0 (DP)"

or "Value (PROFINET)" column in the following table. How to read out and then

analyze the diagnostic information available on the VS 130-2 is described in Slave

Diagnostics

Occurrence of PROFIBUS DP or PROFINET IO Errors

If a "PROFIBUS DP Error" or "PROFINET IO Error" occurs, the processing unit

checks during the time the error is displayed if the cause of the error continues to

be present.

When the affected communication is reestablished, the processing unit resets the

error display and goes into the one of the following operating modes:

• If the error occurred during RUN, the processing unit goes back to RUN mode

with the corresponding code number.

• The processing unit goes to STOP mode in all other situations.

In any case, you can acknowledge the error manually (on the processing unit or in

the setup support) and thereby make changes to the configuration.

The occurrence of these two errors as well as their automatic acknowledgment are

permanently saved in the diagnostics records, i.e. the corresponding entries are

not overwritten by the occurrence of new errors. They are indicated at the following

locations if their number deviates from zero:

• In the Info menu of the processing unit

• In the setup support for the "Processing mode" job

• In the setup support for the "Info" job in the "Statistics" tab

Note

The occurrence of a PROFIBUS DP error or PROFINET IO error results in the call

of OB 86 (rack failure) in a SIMATIC S7-CPU.

If you have not programmed OB 86, the CPU goes to STOP.

7.4 Slave Diagnostics or I/O Device Diagnostics

7.4.1 Introduction

Errors such as "Sensor not found" trigger a slave or I/O device diagnostic

message. Slave diagnostics behaves according to the PROFIBUS standards

EN 50170 and IEC 61158 / IEC 61784. Depending on the DP master or

I/O controller, the diagnostic information can be read with STEP 7.

How to read out the slave or I/O device diagnostic information and how it is

structured is described briefly below. You will find a detailed description in the

Distributed I/O Station ET 200M manual or in the PROFINET IO – From

PROFIBUS DP to PROFINET IO Programming Manual.

Note

VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr does not support the SYNC and FREEZE control

commands. If the VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr slave nevertheless receives one of these

control commands, bit 0 in diagnostic byte 1 is set (see Diagnostics in PROFIBUS

DP).

7.4.2 Reading Out the Diagnostic Information with S7

If an error message such as "Sensor not found" occurs on the processing unit and

you are using an S7 CPU as the DP master or I/O controller, the diagnostic

interrupt OB (OB82) is started.

Its local variables OB_82_EV_CLASS, OB_82_MDL_DEFECT, and

OB82_EXT_FAULT can have the following values:

Tag Value Meaning

OB_82_EV_CLASS B#16#39 Event entering state

OB_82_MDL_DEFECT TRUE Module fault

OB_82_EXT_FAULT TRUE External error

Unfortunately it is not possible to obtain the actual cause of the problem from the

local variables of OB82. This can be determined as follows:

• for PROFIBUS DP: by calling SFC13 "DPNRM_DG" or SFB 54 "RALRM" in

OB82

• for PROFINET IO: by calling SFB54 "RALRM" in OB82

The entry "Module fault" appears in the diagnostic buffer and the relevant text from

the GSD file is shown as the module status of the VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr, for

example "Sensor not found".

When the error is eliminated (in the example: you have inserted the sensor again)

and acknowledged this on the processing unit, the diagnostic interrupt OB (OB 82)

is started again on the DP master or IO controller.

Vision Sensor SIMATIC VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr

7-12 A5E00475759-01

Diagnostics

Its local variables OB_82_EV_CLASS, OB_82_MDL_DEFECT, and

OB82_EXT_FAULT can have the following values:

Tag Value Meaning

OB_82_EV_CLASS B#16#38 Event exiting state

OB_82_MDL_DEFECT FALSE No module fault

OB_82_EXT_FAULT FALSE No external error

The entry "Module OK" now appears in the diagnostic buffer in PROFIBUS DP and

the error text from the GSD file is no longer shown as the module status of the

VS 130-2/VS 130-2vcr.

7.4.3 Diagnostics for PROFIBUS DP

Bytes 7 through 10 of the slave diagnostic information (diagnostic bytes 0 through

3) read with SFC13 correspond to the 32-bit long field "Unit_Diag_Bit" of the GSD
