- read different code types with one application
- Process interfaces:
- O2I50x: Ethernet TCP/IP and Ether
Net/IP - O2I51x: Ethernet TCP/IP and PROFINET
• Parameter setting interface: Ethernet TCP/IP
• Control of the switching outputs via the active application or externally via process interface
• Automatic setting of focus, illumination and code parameters during the configuration - Internal illumination
• Control of external illumination units
• Internal and external triggering of image captures
• Data processing with function blocks and logical links in the device - Integrated ifm mass storage device saves current configuration for easy device replacement. Optional storage of error images.
4.2 Web front end

- Licences
• Device configuration (the ifm mass storage device is required for saving) - Error images (the ifm mass storage device is required for saving)

Calling up the web front end
▶ Enter the IP address of the device in a web browser. Example: http://192.168.0.69
4.3 Triggering image captures
1...5 parameter sets can be defined for image captures.
Image captures for code recognition are triggered by an internal or external trigger signal. Depending on the selected trigger mode, the images are then captured accordingly.
- Internal triggering
– Images are captured continuously with a fixed frame rate. - The settings are made via the ifm Vision Assistant software.
- External triggering
- Image capture activated by external trigger source (switching signal of a connected sensor) via the trigger input.
– Image capture activated by process interface command (PLC) via Ethernet.

If an internal or external illumination unit is used, it will be switched on with each triggering.
4.3.1 External triggering
For external triggering of image captures, different trigger modes can be used ( → software manual at documentation.ifm.com):
- Negative edge
- Positive edge
• Negative and positive edge - Gated trigger
- Burst trigger

During an active trigger process, no new trigger can be activated. A trigger signal that occurs too early will be discarded and treated as a “Trigger overrun” error. The ready signal “Ready for trigger” can be output to a switching output.

Fig. 1: Ready signal ("Ready for trigger")
Example: A diffuse reflection sensor as an external trigger source triggers the unit on a positive edge ( tA = evaluation time).
4.3.2 Internal debouncing

Fig. 2: Internal debouncing
1: trigger input 2: image capture
The trigger input can be debounced internally (preset: internal debouncing deactivated). Internal debouncing prevents several short pulses from triggering. The pulse must be at least 4 ms long to be recognised as a trigger.
Depending on the electrical installation, debouncing is not necessary.

A trigger delay can be set.
4.4 Switching outputs
Switching outputs OUT1 and OUT2 are configurable. If an external illumination is connected, only OUT1 is still available for the application.
The configuration can be set individually for each application using ifm Vision Assistant. The table below shows the standard configuration.
| Output | Standard | External illumination | Process interface |
| OUT1 | For applications via ifm Vision Assistant:Ready signal (“Ready for trigger”)0: unit busy1: unit ready for trigger signal | Selectable via command | |
| When using the teach button:evaluation successful (pass/fail) | |||
| OUT2 | For applications via ifm Vision Assistant:code evaluation0: code evaluation not successful1: code evaluation successful | Trigger output | |
| When using the teach button:OUT2 not used | |||
Tab. 1: Standard configuration of the switching outputs
The switching output switches as soon as one of the following device states has occurred:
- “Ready for trigger”
The unit signals that a new image can be captured. Only with this device status are trigger operations processed. For the continuous image capture the status “Ready for trigger” is not output.
• “Image capture finished”
The unit signals that the image capture is finished. The device status can be used for cascading devices in order to prevent mutual interference during image capture. - “Error”
The unit signals an internal error. Detailed information about errors can be requested via Ethernet. - “Controlled via process interface” (e.g. by PLC)
The device is controlled via the command "O" ( → Programmer's Guide). - "User-defined states"
The user-defined states are changed with the processing of codes (e.g. code found, code matches the reference, code quality outside the threshold level, etc.).
4.5 Internal illumination
The activated internal illumination can improve object recognition. The 4 illumination LEDs can be activated separately.
The internal illumination is set via the ifm Vision Assistant software.

Fig. 3: Illumination LEDs
- O2I5x0, O2I5x2, O2I5x4: red light (617 nm) and integrated polarisation filter
- O2I5x1, O2I5x3, O2I5x5: infrared light (850 nm)
5 Mounting
Depending on the application and surface of the object to be monitored, the unit can be installed in front of or above the object.
▶ Fasten the unit to a bracket via the two threaded holes present on the unit. Tightening torque max. 2.1 Nm.
▶ Use the laser markings to align the unit ( → Aligning the unit and object ☐ 12).

▷ Fire hazard in case of a malfunction.
▶ Use energy-limited circuit according to IEC 61010-1 chap. 9.4.

The device may only be connected to internal Ethernet networks that do not leave the building. It must not be connected to TNV circuits.
ATTENTION
Use an additional protection against surge voltages according to IEC 61000-4-5 if the connection cable is longer than 30 m.
ATTENTION
The unit can be damaged by insufficiently tightened M12 connectors.
▷ The IP rating indicated in the data sheet is only guaranteed if the M12 connectors are firmly screwed.
▶ Firmly screw the M12 connectors to the unit.
▶ Cover the unused sockets with protective caps (E73004). Tightening torque: 0.6...0.8Nm.
▶ Use strain reliefs for cables connected to the unit.
If the device is permanently used in wet areas, the nut of the M12 industrial Ethernet connection cable (e.g. E11898) may corrode.

▶ Aligning the unit and object ( → ☐ 12).
▶ Press the teach button for 3 seconds.
▷ The green teach LED is permanently on.
▷ 2 red laser markings can be seen on the surface.
▶ Place a code in the zone marked by the red laser markings
▶ Press the teach button for 1 second within 2 minutes (timeout).
▷ The yellow teach LED flashes while the unit automatically sets exposure time and focus and then teaches the code.
▷ The code is taught if the green the led teach flashes briefly and is then on for 2 seconds ( → Signal indications ☐ 18).
▷ The code is not taught if the yellow teach led flashes briefly ( → Signal indications ☐ 18).

The teach button has a calculated operation of over 100,000 button pushes.
10.2 Visual localisation

The green and yellow multi-function LEDs flash when using the command. (→ Signal indications ☐ 18)
11 Operation

Fig. 11: Detect object
The following recommendations increase the recognition rate:
▶ Place the object (3) in the field of view (2).
▶ Remove other objects from the field of view.
▶ For objects with shiny surface:
• slightly tilt the device (1) or
- use the polarisation filter (only available in O2I5x0, O2I5x2 and O2I5x4).
▶ Clean the front lens of the unit (1).

If the over temperature protection is active, no images will be captured. The over temperature protection will be deactivated as soon as the internal temperature of the device has decreased.

The laser markings are deactivated at the following internal temperatures of the device:
<5°C
>70°C
12 Troubleshooting
If the unit behaves unexpectedly or incorrectly:
▶ Download and install the latest firmware and ifm Vision Assistant versions. Download at documentation.ifm.com.
If the problems persist:
▶ Contact the ifm support. Contact at www.ifm.com.
13 Maintenance, repair and disposal
If used correctly, the unit is maintenance-free.
Soiling reduces the contrast and the recognition performance.
▶ Keep the front lens free from soiling.

The integrated ifm storage device has a data retention time of 3 years at a maximum storage temperature of 55 °C. If this time is exceeded, data loss is possible. During operation, the stored data is refreshed periodically.

The service lid may only be opened for the transfer of the configuration.
▶ Only open the service lid in a clean and dry environment (degree of soiling 2).

The ifm mass storage device may only be used for the O2x5xx devices.
▶ Do not use the ifm memory stick with a PC, notebook, etc.
To replace the ifm mass storage device:

Fig. 12: Replace the unit.
1: service lid
