CHAPTER 1
WHEN YOUR SYSTEM ARRIVES
Thank you for purchasing an MX-E Series embedded machine vision system (MX-E Series
Industrial Vision Processors). Please read the instructions in this document before start-
ing your system setup.
This manual explains the various parts of the MX-E Series system hardware, including
the system inputs and outputs available to integrate your system into a production line.
This manual covers the MX-E25/45 models of MX-E Series family. Sections that apply to a
specific model number are indicated.
When your system arrives, check the shipping cartons for wrinkled or damaged corners,
holes through the cardboard, or other signs of rough handling or abuse. If you find any
signs of damage, ask the delivery service to make a note on the delivery receipt describ-
ing the damage.
Carefully remove the system unit, cameras, cabling, and accessories from the shipping
package. Place all equipment you unpack on a table and inspect each item. Report any
damage to the carrier immediately. Save all packing materials so you can repack the
shipment in case you need to move or ship it.
Temperature precautions: If your system arrives in very cold or hot weather, allow all
the equipment to reach room temperature before plugging it in. Exposing a cold device
to a warm room causes condensation that could damage the system if power is applied
too soon. If condensation forms, wait for it to dry completely.

SETTING UP THE SYSTEM


To avoid damage to your unit, never plug in or unplug any cables when the
unit power is on. Always shut down the Industrial Vision Processor and
turn off the power supply first before making any cable changes (see
WARNING “Turning Off the System” on page 3).

When a new processor is powered on the first time, a monitor, keyboard,


and mouse must be connected to the processor to approve the license
agreement.
NOTE

1. Familiarize yourself with the major system components as shown in this manual.

2. Unpack and check all the equipment.

3. Mount the MX-E Series Industrial Vision Processor and power supply in their
desired positions as indicated in the mounting instructions (see “Industrial Vision
Processor Installation” on page 13). Do not cover the ventilation holes. Make sure
all the sides of the Industrial Vision processor have at least 100mm of clearance
above and below and 50mm of space to the side and behind for sufficient ventila-
tion.
When installed at an angle, the convection of air through the MX-E Series
device is reduced, which decrease the maximum permissible ambient tem-
perature for operation. Check the device temperature to avoid immediate
CAUTION cancellation of the warranty.

4. Connect the I/O cable, optional monitor, and optional keyboard to the MX-E Series
Industrial Vision Processor. Connect the I/O cable to the terminal block. When a
new processor is powered on the first time, a monitor, keyboard, and mouse must
be connected to the processor to approve the license agreement.

your system, we recommend using a surge protector.

12. Turn on the MX-E Series Industrial Vision Processor power switch. Turn on the
camera power supply.
Default network IP addresses were assigned to the MX-E Series Industrial
Vision Processor and Cameras at the factory. You will probably not need to
change them unless there is a conflict with other devices on your network.
NOTE

13. Start the Impact Software program Vision Program Manager and click on the Set-
tings tab. Check your camera and lighting setup, calibrate the camera, configure
your inspection parameters, then put the camera online. For more information
about using Impact software, refer to the Impact Reference Guide.
If your system does not work when you are finished with the setup, review the instruc-
tions and diagrams to make sure you made all connections properly.
Please note that Datalogic cannot guarantee the performance of MX-E Series systems
which have additional software installed on them, including, but not limited to, anti-
virus and firewall software. Datalogic recommends that MX-E Series systems remain dis-
connected from networks that access the Internet in order to minimize security risks.
Datalogic will attempt to support systems with antivirus software installed, but we can-
not guarantee system performance.

This section contains tips to keep your system trouble-free and operating smoothly.
• Insure at least 50 mm of clearance above and below the MX-E Series Industrial
Vision Processor. Insure at least 100 mm of clearance to the side and behind.
When installed at an angle, the convection of air through the MX-E Series
device is reduced, which decrease the maximum permissible ambient tem-
perature for operation. Check the device temperature to avoid immediate
CAUTION cancellation of the warranty.

If the spacing specifications for air circulation cannot be respected, then


the maximum specified temperatures for the temperature sensors must be
monitored by the user and appropriate measures taken if they are
CAUTION exceeded.
• Periodically check mounting bolts for tightness and wear. The MX-E Series Indus-
trial Vision Processor should be mounted securely in a vibration-free location.
• Keep the outside of the unit clean and free of oil and dust. You can clean the unit
with a mild cleanser. Do not use an abrasive cleaner and never immerse the unit in
water.
• Periodic cleaning of the air inlets, filters, and exhausts is highly recommended.
• Verify that all cable connections are correct and tight. Secure the cables to prevent
accidents or damage to the device connectors.
• When you move the system, be careful that the movement does not loosen con-
nections. After the system is moved, verify cable and power cord connections.
• Repair or replace frayed or damaged cables immediately.
• Do NOT attempt to clean the camera imager or imager cover. Do NOT spray the
imager or imager cover with compressed air as this may leave spots.

If the spacing specifications for air circulation cannot be respected, then


the maximum specified temperatures for the temperature sensors must be
monitored by the user and appropriate measures taken if they are
CAUTION exceeded.

An optional power supply is available for MX-E Series Industrial Vision


Processors. If you provide your own, it must supply 24VDC at 5.5 A (nomi-
nal) with a safe operating ambient temperature range of 0° to +55° C (+32°
NOTE to +131° F).
This equipment is to be powered by a Listed power supply for the U.S. and
Canada, or a power supply that meets the requirements for use where
either IEC 60950 or EN60950 is applicable.
• To ensure safe operation, the system power must be properly grounded. If the
unit is mounted within a rack, verify that it is reliably connected to electrical
ground. The ground terminal on the power input must be connected to the
grounded chassis/enclosure of the power supply. This insures electromagnetic
compliance and proper operation. See “Grounding Concepts” on page 16.
• The Industrial Vision Processor is to be connected only to networks that do not
route outside the plant.

Flat Surface Mounting


When mounting the MX-E Series Industrial Vision Processor:
• Take environmental conditions into consideration.
• Mount the processor to a flat, stable, vibration-free surface.
• This processor is only certified for operation in closed rooms.
• Do not subject the Industrial Vision Processor to direct sunlight.
• Do not cover the ventilation holes.
• Mount the processor only in an upright position as shown in “Industrial Vision
Processor Views and Dimensions” on page 12.

NOTE

Grounding Concepts
Functional ground is a low impedance current path between electrical circuits and
ground. It is used, for example, to improve immunity to disturbances, but is not a pro-
tective measure. Grounding deflects disturbances, but does not necessarily provide pro-
tection against electric shock.
The functional ground on the Industrial Vision Processor has two connections:
• Supply voltage GND terminal
• Grounding connection on the processor back panel
To guarantee a good functional ground:

16 MX-E SERIES
USB HARDWARE KEY

• Connect the Industrial Vision Processor to the central grounding point in the con-
trol cabinet using the shortest route possible.
• Use a cable with a minimum cross section of 2.5 mm² per connection. If a cable
with wire tip sleeves is connected to the supplied power plug, then a cable with
maximum 1.5 mm² per connection is possible.
• Use shielded cable for all data connections.

CHAPTER 3
M-SERIES AND E-SERIES CAMERAS

INTRODUCTION
This section describes digital cameras provided by Datalogic S.r.l. and other third-party
manufacturers. USB cameras will not operate on an MX-E Series Industrial Vision Pro-
cessor.
Datalogic S.r.l. does not support the use of these cameras in any manner other than
described herein.
E-Series cameras acquire an image when a signal is present on the trigger input of the
camera trigger/power cable, then digitize images at the camera source and transmit
them directly to the Industrial Vision Processor over the Ethernet cable. These cameras
provide 8-bit resolution using internal 12-bit A/D converters and some have progressive
scan shutter exposure (allowing individual pixel readings). Third-party cameras may
have different specifications. All cameras are capable of Gigabit transmission rates.
E-Series cameras have a hard-coat finish case that helps eliminate ground loops. All
camera settings (shutter, strobe, partial scan, etc.) are configured using Impact software
and are maintained in the MX-E Series Industrial Vision Processors’ memory so there
are no physical switches on the cameras.
All camera settings must be configured using the Settings tab in the Vision Program
Manager (VPM) or in the Settings program. For more detailed information, refer to the
Impact Reference Guide.

We recommend that the sum of the pixel resolution of all the cameras con-
nected to an MX-E25/45 Industrial Vision Processor with 8G RAM not
exceed 32Mbyte. This limit is not enforced by Impact software, but, if the
NOTE limit is exceeded, the IMPACT user interface performance will degrade.

The MX-E25 Industrial Vision Processor can accommodate a maximum of


two cameras. The maximum image size of each camera is five Megapixels.
(The calculation is: maximum width in pixels * maximum height in pixels <
NOTE 5,500,000.)

20 MX-E SERIES
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Read all of the following instructions before setting up your camera. Save this document
for later use.
• Follow all warnings and instructions in this manual and in other user guides
shipped with your hardware components.
• Do not attempt to disassemble the camera. Do not remove screws or attach-
ments. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to Datalogic S.r.l.
• All E-Series and third-party cameras connect to the MX-E Series Industrial Vision
Processors using a Cat5E Ethernet cable (606-0677-xx). Cat6 cable is required for
distances greater than 25 meters. Using any other cable may cause intermittent
data transmission. Cameras connect to power and triggering signals using a cable
and terminal block. See “Camera Connection” on page 46 for more details.

We recommend that you do not use a switch or a router between the MX-E
Series Industrial Vision Processor and the camera.
NOTE
• This camera is designed for indoor use. Do not expose it to moisture, including
rain or snow, and avoid operating it in wet areas. Should the camera become wet,
turn off the power immediately. Moisture can damage the camera and create dan-
ger of electric shock. Avoid using the camera when the humidity is above 80%.
• Make sure your camera has enough airflow around it for proper ventilation. The
safe case temperature during operation is from 0° to 50° C (32° to 122° F).
• Mount the camera body in a fixed position where it will not be subject to exces-
sive vibration.
• To reduce stress on the camera connectors and cable, loop the cables and fasten
them to the camera's mounting block. Do not crimp or tie the cables tightly with
wire ties as this may damage them internally. The minimum cable bend radius is
fifteen times the cable diameter. It is not intended for continuous flexing or move-
ment. Be sure that cables are safely routed away from vehicle and pedestrian traf-
fic.
• Check the intended installation area to be sure there is enough room for the cam-
era and any lighting that may be needed.
• Avoid areas with excessive heat, vibration, and environmental contaminants.
• Mount the camera away from devices that emit large amounts of electromagnetic
energy.
• Do NOT attempt to clean the camera imager or imager cover. Do NOT spray the
imager or imager cover with compressed air as this may leave spots.
• Do not leave the camera imager uncovered. When you remove the lens cap, you
must replace it with a lens.

PRODUCT REFERENCE GUIDE 21


M-SERIES AND E-SERIES CAMERAS

CAMERA BASICS
Rolling Shutter Cameras support
(M197, M197C)

Stationary objects: When imaging stationary objects, you can use static lighting and
set the strobe trigger width to 0. The camera will operate in a rolling shutter mode,
which means that each row starts exposure at a different time, but is exposed for the
same amount of time. If the object is moving, the rolling shutter causes a “shearing”
effect in the image. For a stationary object, the rolling shutter has no ill effects.

Moving objects: When imaging moving objects, you must use strobed lighting. You
must set the “Strobe Pulse Width” to a non-zero value and set the shutter open time to
be longer than the strobe pulse length. Ambient light should be minimized. The camera
will operate in “Global Reset Release” mode, which means that all rows will start expo-
sure simultaneously, but, due to the rolling shutter architecture, the bottom rows will
be exposed longer than the top rows. Using strobed lighting negates the effect of the
different exposure times. Static or ambient light will cause the lower rows of the image
to be brighter and therefore should be minimized.

20 MPX Cameras support

Available for MX-E45 only.

Color shading support


(JAI AT-200GE)
The JAI Model AT-200GE camera has several special features that are not supported by
the standard VPM camera setup. One of these features is color shading. Color shading
corrects for image shading, particularly darkening in the corners. You can use the color
shading feature of this camera after you complete the following offline calibration pro-
cedure.

To calibrate color shading


1. Using the optics and lighting for the application, place a white or gray target that
fills the field-of-view.

2. Using VPM camera settings, set the white balance to factory defaults. You should
re-calibrate the white balance after the shading is corrected.

22 MX-E SERIES
CAMERA BASICS

3. Adjust the exposure and other settings to create a grey level of 50 to 75% at the
center of the image. Note the exposure setting.

4. Close VPM and IMPACTDevice.exe.

5. Start the Pylon Viewer by double-clicking on the following file:


c:\Program Files\Basler\Pylon 2.x\apps\i386\PylonViewerApp.exe
Note that Pylon Viewer and IMPACTDevice.exe cannot run at the same time.

6. In the Devices window, select the camera to be calibrated.

7. Switch to the Feature window.

8. Set the Transport Layer/Read Timeout and the Write Timeout to 3000.

9. Set the User Set Selector to Default and click the User Set Load button.

10. Set the Acquisition Control/Exposure Mode to Timed.

11. Set the Acquisition Control/Exposure Time to the setting found in Step 3 using
VPM.

12. Snap and image using the One Shot button. An image should be displayed.

13. Verify that the image pixel values are medium intensity, not saturated or very
dark. Adjust the exposure time and other settings, if necessary.

14. Move to the JAI Custom Control area of the Feature Window.

15. Select the preferred Shading Correction Mode. You will probably want Flat Shad-
ing, which corrects for both brightness variations and color variations. The other
option of Color Shading will only correct for color variation and leaves brightness
variation uncorrected.

16. Set Shading Selector to Red.

17. Turn On Shading Enable.

18. Click the Shading Correct Execute button.

19. Repeat steps 16, 17, and 18 for Green and Blue.

20. In the User Set Control area, set User Set Selector to User Set 1 and click the User
Set Save button.

21. Close the Pylon Viewer and restart IMPACTDevice.exe and VPM.

22. The camera will now load the shading correction each time it starts.

23. Recalibrate the White Balance.

Use cases for Rolling Shutter Cameras

Stationary objects: When imaging stationary objects, you can use static lighting and
set the strobe trigger width to 0. The camera will operate in a rolling shutter mode,
which means that each row starts exposure at a different time, but is exposed for the
same amount of time. If the object is moving, the rolling shutter causes a “shearing”
effect in the image. For a stationary object, the rolling shutter has no ill effects.

Moving objects: When imaging moving objects, you must use strobed lighting. You
must set the “Strobe Pulse Width” to a non-zero value and set the shutter open time to
be longer than the strobe pulse length. Ambient light should be minimized. The camera
will operate in “Global Reset Release” mode, which means that all rows will start expo-
sure simultaneously, but, due to the rolling shutter architecture, the bottom rows will
be exposed longer than the top rows. Using strobed lighting negates the effect of the
different exposure times. Static or ambient light will cause the lower rows of the image
to be brighter and therefore should be minimized.

The response times for the strobe output on the M1xx and E1xx camera will typically fall
into the ranges specified below. The exact response time for your application will
depend on the external resistor and the applied voltage you use. The shutter begins
opening simultaneously with the “Camera Strobe Output” in the diagram. Set the
strobe time 60 to 110 microseconds longer than you would on a M2xx to account for
the delays. The shutter time must then be set a little longer than the strobe time.

VPM does not provide a strobe trigger pulse width setting. The strobe trigger pulse
width coincides with the camera shutter speed open time setting so that it turns on
when the exposure starts (shutter opens) and turns off when the exposure ends (shut-
ter closes). Refer to “Trigger Events” and “Strobe Pulse Length” in the Impact Reference
Guide for more details.

CHAPTER 4
INDUSTRIAL VISION PROCESSOR I/O
There are two versions of the MX-E Industrial Vision Processor, one with sourcing out-
puts - the model number contains a “P” (for example MX-E25-2-P-1) and one with sink-
ing outputs - the model number contains an “N” (for example MX-E25-2-N-1)
This section discusses the MX-E Series Industrial Vision Processor I/O scheme. Refer to
this section for all specifications when wiring your inputs and outputs into the Industrial
Vision Processor.
Your MX-E Series Industrial Vision Processor does not provide a voltage
source for inputs and outputs – it must be provided by an external source.
Refer to the module tables below for more voltage requirement informa-
NOTE tion.

The Trigger Signal and Strobe Output for M-Series cameras are separate
and not part of the MX-E Series Industrial Vision Processor inputs and out-
puts. See “M-Series and E-Series Cameras” on page 20 for details.
NOTE

INDUSTRIAL VISION PROCESSOR I/O CONNECTION


To connect MX-E Series Industrial Vision Processor input and output signals use either
cable 606-0675-xx (37 pin D-sub Male to Male Cable) with terminal block 248-0110 or
remove one end (to create pigtail) with no terminal block. Use shielded cable for all con-
nections.

NOTE 5

INDUSTRIAL VISION PROCESSOR INPUTS


The MX-E Series Industrial Vision Processors contain sixteen general-purpose input con-
nections.
Two inputs serve as both event and polled inputs (Inputs 1 and 2). The remaining inputs
are polled. The event inputs are interrupt-driven which means that a change of state on
the input will immediately cause an action and any inspection task that uses that input
will be queued to run. Polled input means that the input’s status is checked based on
conditions defined in the inspection task.
Interrupt-driven inputs are edge-triggered and the duration of the input pulse must be
longer than the debounce time. The active trigger edge (rising, falling, or both), input
pulse duration, and debounce, are all configured in the Vision Program Manager Set-
tings tab.
This table describes the input characteristics.

CABLE REFERENCE
This chapter documents MX-E Series Industrial Vision Processor and Camera cable
assemblies.

INDUSTRIAL VISION PROCESSOR CABLES


The following cables connect different hardware devices to the Industrial Vision Proces-
sor.

Ethernet
An Ethernet cable (Part number 606-0677-xx) is used to connect the MX-E Series Indus-
trial Vision Processor to the GigE camera and between the Processor and any external
network. The last two digits of the part number indicate the cable length in feet. We
recommend you use shielded Cat5e Ethernet cable or better to connect the camera and
the Processor. Cat6 cable is required for distances greater than 25 meters. Using any
other cable may cause intermittent data transmission.
A crossover cable is not required because the Ethernet ports are auto-negotiating; that
is they can tell the difference between a peer-to-peer connection and a router/switch
connection and they configure themselves and the communications to suit the environ-
ment.

Input/Output
The terminal block and cable for connecting MX-E Series Industrial Vision Processor are
listed in the table below. For connection diagrams, see “Industrial Vision Processor I/O
Connection” on page 70. The last two digits of the part number indicate the cable length
in meters.

Power Supply
This equipment is to be powered by a Listed power supply for the U.S. and Canada, or a
power supply that meets the requirements for use where either IEC 60950 or EN60950
is applicable.
See “Power Supply Connection” on page 16 for more details on wiring the power supply
cable.

Serial Port
A standard serial cable is used to connect the Industrial Vision Processor to the serial
port on an external device (e.g. terminal, PLC, motion controller, data recorder). This
may require using a null modem cable or adapter. The serial port does not support hard-
ware (CTS/RTS) or software (Xon/Xoff) data flow control. Impact software supports RS-
232 communication protocol only. RS-485 is not supported.

CHAPTER 6
SYSTEM PROTECTION TOOL
This chapter documents the System Protection Tool. This tool enhances the security of
the Vision Processor against system’s files corruption that might be caused by unex-
pected shutdowns or malware attacks. System Protection Tool allows the user to acti-
vate a mode in which the critical system’s files are protected from unwanted changes.
When the System Protection is disabled any file modification will be stored on the disk
and it will persist after reboot.

NOTE: When the System Protection is enabled any change or deletion on the protected disk
will be restored after system reboot.

LOCATIONS NOT AFFECTED BY THE SYSTEM PROTECTION


TOOL
When the System Protection Tool is active, only a subset of system’s files is protected.
The user can apply permanent changes in the following locations, even if system protec-
tion is enabled:
• IMPACT installation folder (C:\Datalogic)
• Network Settings
• User folder (Desktop, Downloads, Documents, Pictures, Videos)
• System’s logs

How to use the System Protection tool


When the user starts the Vision Processor for the first time, the System Protection tool
is not enabled by default. A warning message on the tray-bar icon in the lower- right
corner of the screen will be visible. The user will also receive a notification popup mes-
sage on the screen.

CHAPTER 7
MULTILINGUAL USER INTERFACE
(MUI)
This chapter describes how to use the Windows® Multilingual User Interface on Data-
logic M-Series Processors. The Microsoft® Windows user interface can be displayed in a
variety of languages using the MUI.

MUI only applies to M-Series Vision Processors running Windows XP or


Windows 10 IoT Enterprise.
NOTE
Datalogic optionally provides several MUI languages already installed.
The MUI provides nearly the same level of language support as the localized version of
the operating system, with a few minor exceptions. Visit the Microsoft web site
(www.microsoft.com) for more details.
There are several levels of human language support in Impact software. First, the cus-
tom end-user interfaces (Control Panels in Impact CPM) use Unicode UTF-8 encoding.
This means that user interfaces for the factory floor are created in the most appropriate
language for the users at the factory. The default human language in the Impact soft-
ware editing environment, VPM, CPM, etc., is English but it has been translated into Chi-
nese Simplified and other languages. All the documentation is available in English only.
The M-Series Vision Processor is optionally shipped with the following nine languages
installed:
• English
• Chinese
• Chinese Simplified
• French
• German
• Italian
• Japanese
• Korean
• Spanish

CHAPTER 8
SYSTEM RESTORATION
This chapter describes how the Restoration Partition on Datalogic MX-E Series Indus-
trial Vision Processors can be used to restore the vision device to its original factory
configuration. The process to modify the Windows User Interface Operating language is
part of the Restoration.

Completing this process will delete ALL the data on the Processor drive.
You should create and maintain a current backup of any data that you can-
not replace on the drive before attempting a language change and system
CAUTION Restoration.
THIS SYSTEM RESTORATION WILL NOT RESTORE ANY DATA YOU HAVE
ADDED TO THE DRIVE SINCE THE PROCESSOR LEFT THE FACTORY.

MX-E25, MX-E45
In order to complete System Restoration, it is mandatory to use the VGA
port of your Vision Processor.
NOTE
After the MX E-Series Processor factory configuration was complete, an image of the
system drive was created. A copy of this drive image was saved on a separate partition
on the processor drive. To restore the system to its factory configuration, load this Res-
toration Partition onto the primary part of the drive so it can be used.
The ability to change the language that the Operating System uses for the User Interface
is an integral part of the Restoration process. If you change the language, you must also
complete the System Restoration. To complete this process, a keyboard must be con-
nected to one of the USB ports labeled on the front of the processor. (You may need to
remove the USB Hardware key. It must be replaced after Restoration).

MX-E25, MX-E45 SYSTEM RESTORATION


1. Turn off processor power for 30 seconds.

2. Turn on processor power. While the system is restarting, repeatedly press the F8
key on the computer keyboard when you see “Datalogic” on the screen.

3. The menu displayed in Figure 1 should appear on the screen after a few seconds.
If the menu does not appear, the system will continue until the Windows restart is
complete. If this happens, restart this procedure at step 1.
