Q: Discuss the role of mask regions in edge detection and why they might be necessary in complex shapes.

Mask regions play a crucial role in edge detection, especially when dealing with complex shapes. They allow certain areas to be excluded from measurement, which is vital when the target has a complicated shape or when specific areas need to be ignored to prevent interference in the detection process. Up to four mask regions can be specified, improving accuracy by focusing only on the relevant parts of the image . Mask regions help reduce the effects of noise and reflections which might otherwise cause false edge detections in intricate designs . By excluding these from edge detection, the measurement can be more precise, ensuring high accuracy even in environments where exterior factors could affect the results .

Q: How does the cyclic communication method affect data output over EtherNet/IP in industrial control systems?

Cyclic communication under EtherNet/IP ensures a continuous and synchronized exchange between devices. It involves predefined intervals ensuring real-time data updates, which is essential for maintaining operational coherence and responsiveness. This approach minimizes latency, leading to real-time control and monitoring. Errors such as data buildup in the output buffer are minimized through careful configuration, ensuring efficient and reliable data flow necessary for industrial control tasks .

Q: Analyze how the choice between maximum and minimum edge detection through scan direction impacts the measurement outcomes.

Choosing between maximum or minimum edge detection affects how peak lines and circles are identified. Maximum edge detection targets the most extreme points, creating peak lines that pass through the largest edges in the scan direction. Conversely, minimum edge detection focuses on the smallest edges. The choice impacts the resultant circle or line fitting drastically, as it alters the anchor points for geometric calculations and subsequent analyses, therefore directly influencing the precision of the measured outcome .

Q: Explain the importance of setting a measurement pattern in dimensional assessment and its impact on results.

Setting a measurement pattern in dimensional assessment is crucial as it ensures consistency and reliability in results. Using standardized patterns allows for comparison and analysis over time, reducing the impact of external factors like ambient temperature or vibrations which may cause measurement fluctuations . Statistical tools, such as trend graphs and histograms, help in visualizing these patterns and detecting any deviations from expected results, which could indicate errors in the measurement process or instrument malfunction . Therefore, standardized measurement patterns contribute significantly to achieving accurate and dependable measurement outcomes.

Q: What is the significance of using a moving average in processing settings, and how does it contribute to measurement accuracy?

Moving averages are significant in processing settings as they help in minimizing measurement fluctuations caused by environmental factors such as vibration and atmospheric motions. By averaging multiple readings, the influence of transient anomalies is reduced, leading to more stable and accurate measurements . Additionally, using a moving average can reduce the sensitivity to noise, ensuring that only significant variations are detected and thus enhancing accuracy . Increasing the number of moving averages can further improve measurement accuracy by compensating for vibrational influences .

Q: Why is it important to configure exclusion area settings in precise measurement applications?

Configuring exclusion areas ensures accuracy by preventing specific unwanted regions from affecting measurement results. This is especially critical in precision applications where including irrelevant data can degrade the quality of the measurement by introducing unnecessary variability or errors in the data. Having the ability to exclude these areas focuses on the measurement's target features exclusively, ensuring more precise and reliable outputs .

Q: In what ways does adjusting edge sensitivity lower limits influence edge detection outcomes, especially in noisy environments?

Adjusting the lower limit of edge sensitivity specifies the minimal contrast variation required for detection, which impacts outcomes by selectively ignoring insignificant edges. In noisy environments, raising the lower limit suppresses detection of noise-induced edges, thus enhancing the robustness and accuracy of the edge detection process. However, too high a threshold may also miss relevant low-contrast features, requiring an optimal balance to maintain measurement integrity .

Q: How does the removal of defects enhance the accuracy of edge detection in image processing?

Removing defects aims to eliminate edge points away from the main edge trail as abnormal points, which can occur due to burrs or contamination. This enhances accuracy as errors from these irrelevant points are excluded from calculations for fitting lines, leading to more precise determination of the target's true edge. Using a stronger setting for defect removal can also minimize the impact of small gaps mistaken as valid edges .

Q: Evaluate how advanced edge settings like segment size and filter width can be adjusted to balance detection sensitivity and noise reduction.

Adjusting segment size and filter width is crucial for balancing sensitivity and noise. Increasing segment size reduces detection sensitivity but decreases noise interference, useful in high-noise environments. Conversely, expanding the filter width can decrease false detections caused by noise. This trade-off requires strategic adjustment based on specific application contexts to optimize edge detection reliability without compromising detail accuracy .

Q: What are the different types of edge direction settings available, and how do they influence the detection process?

The edge direction settings available are [Both], [Light to Dark], and [Dark to Light]. Choosing [Both] allows detection of edges that change from dark to light or light to dark. [Light to Dark] focuses on detecting edges transitioning from lighter to darker areas, while [Dark to Light] detects the opposite transition. Selecting the appropriate edge detection direction can affect the accuracy and relevance of the edges detected based on the specific application and the nature of the target image area .

For Optimal Performance of the TM-X5000 Series

Influence of ambient temperature

A change in the ambient temperature may cause the measurement to fluctuate. Be sure to keep it stabilized.
When the ambient temperature changes by 10 °C, it takes 60 minutes for the distribution of internal temperature to equalize.

Warming up
Wait approximately 30 minutes after the power is turned on before using the TM-X5000 Series. Otherwise, the measured value may gradually fluctuate
because the circuit is not immediately stable after the power is turned on.

Operating ambient light intensity level

Do not operate this device near lighting fixtures. If the unit must be used in such a location, install a light shielding board or similar device so that the light will
not affect the measurement.

Influence of dust or dirt

The measurement may fluctuate due to dirt, dust, or fluid such as water or oil in the following cases:
• Adhesion on the protective glass plate:
Blow the dirt off with clean air. If dirt persists, wipe the glass surface gently using a soft cloth moistened with alcohol.
• Adhesion on the surface of the measuring target:
Blow the dirt off with clean air or wipe it off.
• Intrusion of floating or sprinkled dust or dirt into the light-axis range:
In this case, take corrective action with a protective cover or air purge.

Influence of vibration
When the measuring target is vibrating, the measured value may fluctuate.
In this case, increase the number of moving averages to achieve a more accurate value.

Measuring target
The measured value may fluctuate if the shapes or surfaces of the measuring targets vary.
In this case, use a target with known dimensions to perform appropriate correction using the scaling function.

Effect of atmospheric motions

Slow atmospheric motions may affect the measurement and result in fluctuation of the measured value.
In such a case, take the following countermeasures.
• Enclose the measurement area with an appropriate enclosure.
• Agitate the air between the measurement point and the workpiece more strongly with a fan.

Remove External Media

Remove safely the SD card 2 inserted in the controller or the USB HDD
connected to the controller. In addition, format SD Card 2 or USB HDD.

• Make sure to always follow the on-screen instructions

to protect the SD memory card and the data it contains.
• If the SD memory card or USB HDD is removed using
a procedure other than that specified, or if power is
turned off when the card is being accessed, any writing
task will stop resulting in a possible loss of data or
damage to the SD memory card.

By using [Manual Adjustment], the positional relationship

between heads can be adjusted manually.

Head-to-head Adjustment Setting

This function adjusts the positional relationship between heads when
measuring an object with two heads that cannot be measured by one head
(such as the diameter of a large object).
Adjust the positional relationship by following the on-screen instructions.
Use the object for adjustment for which the size is known to make the
adjustments.

Clicking [Initialize] deletes the head-to-head adjustment

value.

OE: Enable/disable output

I/O control
This command disables the data/image output to the output buffer and
clears the data in the buffer, so that data output to external devices is
controlled.
TE: Enable/disable trigger input Executing “OE,1” (enabled) when output is enabled and “OE,0” (disabled)
When “TE,0” is executed, the READY terminal is set to remain off and thus when output is disabled does not result in an error.
no trigger input will be accepted. When “TE,1” is executed, trigger input This command controls the following output functions:

Terminal output
• Outputs to STO, OUT_DATA0 to 15, OR terminal blocks are immediately
shut off and the state is set to normal.
• Even while output is disabled, the total status result of OR changes.
However, such change is not applied to the terminal blocks.
• Even if STO and OUT_DATA0 to 15 output is disabled, the values do
not change.
• For STO and OUT_DATA0 to 15, output is resumed at the next trigger
execution (results when output is disabled will be not output and
discarded).
Relationship with TEST
• There is no priority setting between OE and TEST terminal. The latest
status, enabled or disabled, is reflected to the internal operation.
(Example)
Inputting “OE,1” (enable) when TEST=ON (disable) enables output.
Then, specifying ON (disable) when TEST=OFF (enable) disables
output.
• Output is enabled or disabled based on the status (level) of TEST
immediately after the controller is turned on, reset, or the program is
changed.
(Example)
Inputting “OE,1” (enable) when TEST=ON (disable) enables output.
Then, when the program is changed later, output is disabled when
TEST=ON (disable).

TM-X5000 Series User’s Manual Input/Output and Control Using EtherNet/IP

Input/Output and Control Using EtherNet/IP

This system supports communication via EtherNet/IP.
EtherNet/IP is an open communications standard with specifications that are managed by ODVA (Open Device Net Vendor Association, Inc.). Communication
is possible with all devices that support it, regardless of the vendor.
The following functions are possible by EtherNet/IP connection.
EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, EtherCAT, and PLC-Link cannot be used at the same time.

z Cyclic Communication
Cyclic communication at RPI (Request Packet Interval) communication cycle intervals allows high-speed control at intervals of several ms to several tens of
ms (implicit communication). In addition, because it is possible to control the controller by referencing and updating variables and devices in the PLC without
considering the communication, it allows programs to be written easily on the PLC side.
• Control the controller: The controller can be controlled by using cyclic communication to send the commands for execution.
• Output the results data: Data can be output by cyclic communication when the items for output from EtherNet/IP are set in the output settings (Page 3-34).
• Change the recipe number: The controller can be controlled by using cyclic communication to specify the recipe number.
• Implicit communication settings such as cycle (RPI), data size, time out, transmission trigger, and so on are specified at the PLC. During cyclic
communication with the controller, set the RPI value to 5 ms or more. When COS (Change Of State) for the PLC (such as the Keyence KV
Series) that allows selection of the communication trigger is selected, set the minimum transmission interval (Inhibit Time) to 5 ms or more.
• If RPI is set to 5 ms or more, use of other communications, such as measurement settings, dialog operation, command, and FTP, may place
an excessive load on the controller. This may result in delay of processing or temporary time-out of the communication. In such cases, it is
necessary to review the cyclic communication settings and service conditions (when this is done, there may be an increase or variation in
measurement time.) Be sure to verify that there are no problems with operating performance, including the issues above, prior to operation.
• In a network where many devices are connected, including EtherNet/IP devices, if a large load is constantly or temporarily applied to the
network, then delays and packet loss may occur. Be sure to perform sufficient verification prior to operation.

z Message Communication
This can be used for communications that do not require punctuality as is needed with cyclic communications (Explicit message).
There is no functional difference between the controller message communication function and cyclic communication function. As a result, it is not necessary
to use it in most cases. However, it can be used for EtherNet/IP communications with PLC devices that do not support cyclic communication (SLC5/05 Series,
etc.).

*1: he condition for the cyclic communication status to become [Connected] is when either an Exclusive Owner or Input Only connection is established via
T
the controller’s Ethernet port and only when an Exclusive Owner connection is established for the communication expansion unit.
*2: Only a PLC that supports COS (such as Keyence KV-3000/5000/5500/7300/7500/8000 and the KV Nano Series) can be specified. When a COS send
trigger is selected, the controller sends data at the time when a change in the data to be sent occurs. (If there is no change in the data to be sent,
then data is sent at intervals of the specified RPI (communications cycle)). If the data to be sent continuously changes, data sending is delayed for the
InhibitTime (minimum sending interval). Moreover, the part of the data that is subject to modification checks are “Result ready flag” and “Command
complete flag” in the case of the controller’s Ethernet port and all data to be sent in the case of the communication expansion unit.

z When to use message communication and cyclic communication

There is no functional difference between the controller message communication function and cyclic communication function. It is used for EtherNet/IP
communications with PLC devices that do not support cyclic communication (SLC5/05 Series, etc.).
• Because message communication is communication performed using TCP/IP, it is less suited for high-speed control than cyclic communication,
which uses UDP.
• Message communication is communication using TCP/IP. However, depending on the network status and other conditions, it is possible that the
data may not arrive. On the PLC side, give consideration to such cases when designing the controls (resending process following timeout, etc.).

The controller changes the value of the recipe number using EtherNet/IP as shown below.
The changed value is applied at the next measurement.

Troubleshooting

When correct operation does not occur

Checking whether or not the EtherNet/IP connection is correct
From [Global] for the controller, select [Communications & I/O] - [Field Network], and then check [Cyclic Communication Status:] at the bottom of the screen.
If [Not Connected] is displayed here, communication has failed. Check the cable (cross cable when connected directly), IP address, communications settings
on the PLC side, and other items again.
When connecting to a Rockwell SLC5/05, because cyclic communication is not performed, [Not Connected] is displayed even when the connection
is correct.

Result OR flag is not output.

The “Result OR flag” is updated in coordination with results output with EtherNet/IP as the output destination. When the “Result OR flag” is used, it is necessary
to configure the output setting so that 1 or more data item is output via EtherNet/IP.

Result ready flag remains ON and does not change.

There is the possibility that “Result ack flag” control is not being performed correctly. The “Result ready flag” turns OFF when the “Result ack flag” rise is
recognized in sending (this controller receiving). This is the same regardless of whether “Enable Handshake” is selected or cleared.

Data cannot be acquired correctly when reading data based on the change in the rise of STO output from an
external terminal.
STO is the strobe signal for terminal output. Therefore, it cannot be used as the strobe signal for any other data output.
Refer to the “Result ready flag” for the timing as to when to read data by EtherNet/IP.

Although results data is output beginning from byte address 0048, it is unknown where the data is output to
on the PLC (KV Series) side.
With the KV Series, when automatic allocation is used for the first TM-X5000 series, the TM-X5000 series results data is written beginning from link register
W0012.
With KV series automatic allocation, allocation byte addresses 0000-0011 are for the link relay (beginning from B0000), and byte addresses beginning from
0012 are for the link register. Allocation begins at the start from W0000, with 1 register used for each 2-byte address.
When the results data byte address is 0048, then (48 - 12)/2 = No. 18→12Hex, and results data is written beginning from W0012.

TM-X5000 Series User’s Manual Overview of Control/Data Output Using PROFINET

Overview of Control/Data Output Using PROFINET

This system supports communication via PROFINET.
PROFINET is an open communications standard with specifications that are specified by PI (PROFIBUS & PROFINET International) and communications are
possible with all devices that support it, regardless of the vendor. This system conforms to ConformanceClass A.
The Ethernet port complies with Conformance Class A and the PROFINET unit (CB-NPN20E: Optional) complies with Conformance Class C.
The following functions are possible with a PROFINET connection.
EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, EtherCAT, and PLC-Link cannot be used at the same time.

z Cyclic communication
This function provides high-speed control at an interval of several to several tens of milliseconds by communicating at the update time interval. In addition,
because it is possible to control the controller by referencing and updating variables and devices in the PLC without considering the communication, it allows
programs to be written easily on the PLC side.
• Control the controller: The controller can be controlled by using periodic communication to send the commands for execution.
• Output the results data: Data can be output by periodic communication when the items for output from PROFINET are set in the output settings (Page 3-34).
• Change the recipe number: The controller can be controlled by using periodic communication to specify the recipe number.
• Be sure to set an update time of 4 ms or longer for cyclic communication (1 ms or longer when using the PROFINET unit).
• In a network where many devices including a PROFINET device are connected, delay or packet loss may occur sometimes when a heavy load
is applied to the network constantly or temporarily. Be sure to perform sufficient verification prior to operation.

z Recorded data communication (aperiodic communication)

This function can be used for communications that do not require punctuality as is needed with cyclic communications. A communication method that uses
specialized commands to write to the data record (1024 bytes/record) and can access an area that exceeds the maximum size (1408 bytes; 1212 bytes when
using the PROFINET unit) for cyclic communication.

Controller PROFINET Communication Specifications

Standard specifications
This system’s PROFINET communications supports “periodic communication” and “recorded data communication (aperiodic communication)”.

performed in real-time.
• It can access areas for which the maximum periodic communication size

• An index is assigned to each record, the index and size is specified, and
data is accessed.
The accessible range of each byte assignment is as follows.

• The read record and write record commands are issued using the
respective “RDREC” (SFB 52) and “WRREC” (SFB 53) blocks from
the PLC.

If the parameter module is being written to when the write

record command is issued with periodic communication,
a conflict may occur in the memory area. To use the write
record command, configure the settings so that periodic
communication and the memory area do not conflict.
