3.1
Information Before Use
General Description
The Profiler 2 is a high-precision profile measurement sensor.
The characteristics of this product are shown below.
• This product achieves high-precision measurement by emitting a bandshaped laser beam and using a light-plane-intersecting method that
triangulates the reflected light.
• Settings can be configured, measurements can be performed,
and output can be generated from the sensor. No amplifier unit
or other auxiliary devices are necessary.
• Various settings can be set from the sensor or from the dedicated setup
software (PRO2-navigator).
• It is possible to measure 4 areas with a single measurement. For each
area, there are 13 types of measurement functions to select from.
• There are 4 camera modes available. This enables you to select
the optimum settings to match the environment of the production line
to be measured and the state of the target object.
With the light-plane-intersecting method, the reflected light from the
emitted band-shaped laser beam is received by the light receiving element
(CMOS), and the profile is then measured from the resulting image data.
With the light-plane-intersecting method, two processes are used to
determine the height and position.
• Triangulation: To determine the height, this process obtains the received
light waveform (the waveform of the reflected light) for each vertical line
of the image.
• Projection transformation: To determine the horizontal position,
this process mathematically calculates the actual position from
the image data.

setup software.
• Shutter time
• Area
• Output conditions
Reference: For the actual screens and for information on the operations,
see the following pages.
Configuring settings from the sensor → “5.3 Setting.”
Using PRO2-Navigator → “6.3 PRO2-Navigator Screen and Operating.”
1.
Set the shutter time
Position the measurement target, and then perform automatic adjustment.
The optimum shutter time will be set.
2.
Set the area
Use the area setting to specify what part you will measure and how that
part will be measured.
1. Measurement area
• Set what part within the measurement range will be measured.
The set area must intersect the profile (the sectional waveform).
2. Measurement function
• Set the measurement function. You can select from functions
such as height and width.
Reference: For details on the area settings, see “7.6 Area Settings.”
3.
Set the output conditions
Configure the settings related to the output of the measured results.
First, specify the judgment and output target area.
• Output target
Select the target area (area 1 to area 4 and calculation 1 and
calculation 2).
1.Measurement output
The product judges whether the measurement is a pass or a fail,
and then outputs the result.
• Upper limit/lower limit
2. Analog current output (4 to 20 mA)
• 4 mA/20 mA
Set the lower and upper limits of the analog output range.

Camera Settings
Camera Mode
Select the camera mode. For “Hi-res” mode and “Hi-spd” mode,
one measurement is performed for each image.
For “HDR” mode and “NR” mode, two images are taken by the camera
for each trigger, and then one measurement is performed for these
two images.
Tips:
• After the camera mode is changed, measurements are not performed
for the first two triggers.
Camera mode: “Hi-res”
All pixels will be used by the camera to take a high resolution image.
Normally use this mode.
Camera mode: “Hi-spd”
Pixels will be averaged in sets of four. Image capture time will be 1/4
but resolution will be half in both the horizontal and vertical directions.

Functions
“Hi-res” mode

Figure: Difference in resolution attributable to the camera mode (example)
Camera mode: “HDR”
In “HDR” (High Dynamic Range) mode, screens captured by the camera
at two different shutter speeds are combined. This makes it possible
to perform stable measurements of parts that are highly reflective or that
are minimally reflective.
Use this mode when you cannot capture images with a single shutter
speed such as for metallic surfaces on circuit boards, very uneven
surfaces, or when the surface exhibits large color or profile differences.
Tips:
• Because two images are taken for each measurement, this mode has
a long sampling period.
• When measuring workpieces that move at a high speed, the HDR image
combination may not be perform appropriately.

Functions
Operation of the camera mode
1.Workpieces where HDR
is effective
Use this mode when measuring workpieces that have parts whose reflective
status vary greatly. The following example uses a workpiece that has a
white and a black part, as shown in the figure to the right.
To measure this workpiece, it is necessary to acquire a profile like that
shown below.
Image example
2.Problems with the “Hi-res”
camera mode
Profile example
In “Hi-res” mode, if the shutter speed is increased (made shorter),
the reflected light from the black part is insufficient to perform the measurement. If the shutter speed is decreased (made longer), the reflected
light from the white part is saturated, leading to poor precision.

3.Operation in “HDR”
camera mode
In “HDR” mode, the brightness from images captured at fast shutter
speeds is amplified. The amplification rate is determined by the ratio of the
shutter speeds of the two images.
(Example: If the shutter speeds are 1000 μs and 4000 μs, the amplification
rate will be 4000/1000 = &times;4.)
During amplification, areas where the light level is low will be eliminated in
advance as noise. (The part marked with the “X” in the following figure.)

Functions
Mandatory settings when using HDR
HDR shutter
In addition to the normal shutter, set the speed of the shutter that will be
used to take the image with the slow shutter time.
This must be set to a value that is longer than the normal shutter speed.
When you select “HDR” mode, this is automatically set to a value that is
four times the shutter time.
Camera mode: “NR”
In “NR” (Noise Reduction) camera mode, two images are taken: one when
the laser is on and one when the laser is off. Measurement is performed
on the difference of these two images.
Because the image taken when the laser is off can be canceled, this function
is effective in situations where light other than that from the laser — such
as noise — has an effect on the measurement. Also, the noise generated
during imaging with a high gain can also be canceled.

Image 2 (laser off)

Tips:
• Because two images are taken for each measurement, this mode has
a long sampling period.
• When measuring workpieces that move at a high speed, the NR image
combination may not perform appropriately.

Image Brightness (Shutter Time and Gain)
Use shutter time and gain to adjust the camera screen brightness.
With “Auto adjust”, the shutter speed will be adjusted to the optimum value.
Shutter
Set the camera shutter time. Set this value in steps of 5 μs.
The longer the shutter time, the brighter the images that can be taken.
However, the images may be blurred for workpieces moving at high speeds.
Gain
Set the camera gain.
The larger the value, the higher the gain, which makes it possible to
perform measurements even with small amounts of reflected light.
If you increase the gain too much, there will be lots of noise, which may
lead to unstable measurements.
Auto adjust
Optimize capturing condition automatically that matches with currently set
work piece.
Set the work piece to measure at the adequate position and execute “Auto
adjust”.
Don’t move the work piece while “Auto adjust” is proceeded.
When external trigger is used, check the profile is captured as you expected
for around 20 to 50 times, depends on the condition, to make sure.
Tips:
• &quot;Hi-res&quot; and &quot;NR-Mode&quot;, “Gain”, “shutter time”, “Threshold” and “Reject
Level” will be adjusted automatically by pressing “Auto adjust” button.”
• When you do not use automatic adjustment, set the shutter speed and
the gain, and then adjust these settings so that the appropriate received
light waveform is generated. If the amount of light is insufficient
(the center waveform) or is too large (the lower-right waveform), it will be
difficult to perform accurate measurements. Adjust the shutter speed
and the gain until the received light waveform becomes like the one
shown below in the lower-left.
Appropriate shutter speed
Insufficient amount of light
→ Make the shutter time longer.
Too large amount of light
→ Make the shutter time shorter.

Camera Range
Set the camera Range.
The narrower you set the camera range, the shorter the imaging time and
the sampling period become.
The default value is the entire camera range. (Sampling period: 5 ms)
Purpose of narrowing the
camera range
Narrowing the camera range has advantages such as those shown below.
(a) Shortening of the
measurement time
When you narrow the camera range, the sampling period will be shortened
by a corresponding amount.
This makes it possible to perform measurements on production lines that
move at faster speeds.
(b) Noise prevention
Depending on the workpiece profile and the environment, measurements
may be unstable due to the presence of noise and diffuse-reflected light.
Setting the camera area just to the measurement range can prevent the
influence of these elements on the measured results.
Diffuse-reflected light

Received Light Waveform and Measurements
The heights of all the parts where the laser strikes the target are measured
from the waveform. The waveform is a vertical graph of the reflected light
of the laser.
The following two settings are related to the recognition of the received
light waveform. Normally you do not have to change these settings.
If the amount of light of a part of the received light waveform is less than
or equal to this setting value, that part of the waveform triggers alarm (no
measured value).
The unit is the received light amount (in 256 levels).
If you specify a value that is too high, the number of areas where
measurement is not possible will increase.
If you specify a value that is too low, noise components will also be measured,
which may lead to unstable measurements.
Threshold
[1] The peak of the received light waveform
is greater than or equal to the light
amount threshold.
[2] The peak of the received light waveform
is less than the light amount threshold.

If you specify a value that is too high, the measured value may be unstable
due to the surface status.
If you specify a value that is too low, diffuse-reflected light and noise will be
measured, which may lead to unstable measured values.

Upper limit/Lower limit
Set the upper and lower limits (thresholds) that will be used to perform
output judgments.
Output turns on when one of the following conditions is met.
• (When “Out polar” is “N.O.”)

Output
• The value exceeds the upper limit.
• The value falls below the lower limit.
• Measurement is not possible.
Tips:
Offset value

Lower limit
• Thresholds are judged based on the offset value.
For example, output will turn on as shown below when the offset value is
100 mm and the upper limit is 10 mm.
Offset value (100 mm) + Upper limit (10 mm) = 110 mm
(Refer to the figure to the right. Changing the offset value will shift the
upper and lower limit accordingly.)
Out polar
• N.O.: Output turns on when a measurement result is outside the range
defined by the threshold upper limit and lower limit, or when measurement is not possible.
• N.C.: Output turns on when the measurement result is within the range
defined by the threshold upper limit and lower limit.
Hysteresis

Output
Hysteresis
Set the amount that the value can fall below (or exceed) the threshold
before output is turned off.
This is useful in preventing chattering, the repeated turning on and off
of the output when the value is in the vicinity of the threshold.

• “Offset” and “Offset value” operate on areas and calculations.
Therefore, the values of any other calculations or outputs that are
referencing the area or calculation in question will also be changed.
In the above figure, if the offset operation is executed on output 1
(the dotted line on the left side of the figure), the values of calculation
1 and output 3 — which are referencing area 1 — will also be changed.
• Thresholds are judged based on the offset value.
For example, output will turn on as shown below when the offset value is
100 mm and the upper limit is 10 mm. Offset value (100 mm) + Upper
limit (10 mm) = 110 mm
(Refer to the figure to the right. Changing the offset value will shift the
upper and lower limit accordingly.)

You can use the sensor or communication to switch between banks.
Bank switch
• In/Para
• You can use the sensor screen and input terminals to switch between
banks.
• Comm
• You can use communication to switch between banks. If you use
PRO2-Navigator to switch between banks, this setting will automatically
be switched to “Comm.”
Switching between banks when “Bank switch” is set to “In/Para”
When “Bank switch” is set to “In/Para,” set the input terminals as shown
in the following table in order to switch between banks.
You can use the “Bank” setting of the sensor to switch between banks
when there are terminals that are not assigned to bank 1, 2, or 3.

The value obtained here is 0x6800. Dividing this value by 32 gives 832,
which is the number of profiles.
For time information, a value is input that represents a count in 0.1 ms
units the time from power on and startup.
Reading profiles
After you acquire the address and size of the profile, read the profile values.
The maximum data that can be read with a single command is 126 (0x7E), so
use multiple commands to read the profile.
Also, the reading of the address starts after the 4 bytes of the profile header
are added.
Since the data size of each profile coordinate is 2 words (4 bytes), the read
data size is &quot;2&quot;.

Each X and Y coordinate is a signed 16-bit value. Also, the value &quot;0x7FFF&quot;
indicates that measurement is not possible.
After you acquire 126 data points worth of data, specify the address 252
words (126 data points x 2 words) worth of data after the current address,
and then use the same procedure to acquire the next data. Repeat this operation until you have acquired all the data.
To draw the profile, plot the acquired X and Y coordinates in order.
Tips:
• A thinning value is specified to speed up data communication by thinning the
profile data points.
For example, the commands shown below would perform thinning of at each
data point (which would reduce the data points acquired by half).

Acquiring measured value storage data
The measured value storage results are aligned starting from the address
that was acquired previously. (32 bytes per data item)
253 words (506 bytes) of data can be acquired at one time, so data acquisition needs to be divided between multiple executions when the number
of measured value storages is 16 or greater.

A breakdown of the acquired measured value data (32 bytes) is shown below.
• Data string: aaaabbbbccccddddeeeeffffgggggggg
• aaaa: Area 1 measured value
• bbbb: Area 2 measured value
• cccc: Area 3 measured value
• dddd: Area 4 measured value
• eeee: Calculation 1 measured value
• ffff: Calculation 2 measured value
• gggggggg: (not disclosed)
Tips:
• Data needs to be rearranged as shown below when reading each measured value.
• Example: 4-byte measured value (A1)(A2)(A3)(A4)
This measured value needs to be rearranged to (A3)(A4)(A1)(A2) for
reading.
• Example: When the data EB F4 FF FF is in Area 1
Measured value becomes 0x FFFFEBF4 = -5.305 (mm).
• If measurement is not possible or if there is no measured value, the
measured value becomes 7FFFFFFF.
Acquiring profile storage data
• The storage data format is the same as the general profile (see [8.3 How
to Acquire Profiles&quot; on page 114]).
• The next profile address from a single profile is the address that is a
fixed value 0x800 (2048) away.
• This acquisition operation is repeated for profile storage acquisition.
