Safety instructions

Read this document before setting up the product and keep it during the entire service life.
The product must be suitable for the corresponding applications and environmental conditions without any restrictions.
Only use the product for its intended purpose (→ 3 Functions and features).
If the operating instructions or the technical data are not adhered to, personal injury and/or damage to property may occur.
The manufacturer assumes no liability or warranty for any consequences caused by tampering with the product or incorrect use by the operator.
Installation, electrical connection, set-up, operation and maintenance of the product must be carried out by qualified personnel authorised by the machine operator.
Protect units and cables against damage.

Functions and features

The unit is used to visually display machine conditions. The versions DVx510 and DVx530 additionally have a buzzer for acoustic signalling. The 5 LED segments and the audible warning device can be switched on and off individually.

The device is intended for indoor use only. Observe the operating conditions (→ 11 Technical data).
The unit must not be used for safety-related applications such as access control.

The standard units are DV15xx. The DV25xx units are IO-Link devices. The IO- Link version can be triggered and configured via the standard IO-Link interface. With the standard version the individual LED segments can be switched individually via digital inputs. Parameters are set via a parameter setting button or via an additional IO-Link interface. If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.

IO-Link

General information

This unit has an IO-Link communication interface which enables direct access to process and diagnostic data. In addition it is possible to set the parameters of the unit while it is in operation. Operation of the unit via an IO-Link interface requires an IO-Link capable module (IO-Link master).

Device-specific information

With a PC, suitable IO-Link software and an IO-Link adapter cable communication is possible when the system is not in operation. The IODDs necessary for the configuration of the unit, detailed information about process data structure, diagnostic information, parameter addresses and the necessary information about the required IO-Link hardware and software can be found at www.ifm.com.

Installation

Disconnect power before installation.
For installation choose a flat mounting surface.

Fixture (view from bottom)

Front side

Attach the fixture for the unit to the mounting surface using the supplied M4 nuts. Tightening torque 1.8 Nm.
Only with the models DVx500 and DVx510:
For mounting on a horizontal surface attach the base to the fixture (overlapping marks on base and fixture) and turn clockwise by approx. 10 ° to fix it. For mounting on a vertical surface loosen the screw in the base, turn the upper part of the base by 180 ° and tighten the screw again. Attach the base to the fixture (overlapping marks on base and fixture) and turn clockwise by approx. 10 ° to fix it.
Insert the cable through the fixture and, if necessary, the base and connect the socket with the M12 connector in the signal lamp. Tightening torque max. 1 Nm.
Attach the signal lamp to the fixture or the base (overlapping marks) and turn clockwise by approx. 10 ° to fix it.
Observe the maximum tightening torque of the connection cable.
Integrated seals at the bottom of the fixture and in the base as well as O-rings at the fixture and base prevent ingress of moisture.

Operation

Operation of the IO-Link version

General

The unit is connected to an IO-Link master (A port) with a 4-pole connection cable. The controller switches the individual LED segments on and off in the configured colours according to the set parameters. Via the parameter “Operating mode” the following modes can be set:

On/off mode
RGB mode
Analogue mode

On/off mode

While in operation, the controller switches the 5 LED segments and the buzzer (only with DVx510 and DVx530) on and off (PDout, cyclical data communication). Signalling corresponds to the pre-defined parameters for the individual LED segments and the buzzer. Via the acyclic parameter setting the following properties can be set for every LED segment:

Colour (red, green, orange, blue, violet, turquoise, white, yellow, off)
Frequency (permanently on, low flash rate slow/medium/fast, high flash rate slow/medium/fast)
Brightness (100 %, 75 %, 50 %, 25 %)

For the models with an acoustic signal device the audibility of the buzzer can be set.

6	4	3	2	1	0	PDout
	Seg 5	Seg 4	Seg 3	Seg 2	Seg 1	Byte 0
						Byte 1
						Byte 2
						Byte 3
						Byte 4
Buzzer sound (buzzer style 1…..8)			Buzzer	Byte 5

RGB mode

While in operation the controller switches the 5 LED segments and the buzzer on and off (only with DVx510 and DVx530), defining the respective properties (PDout, cyclical data communication). In this operating mode, 8 different acoustic signals are available for the buzzer.

7	6	5	4	3	2	1
	Segment 1 LED properties	Seg 1 yellow	Seg 1 red	Seg 1 green	Seg 1
blue	Byte 0
	Segment 2 LED properties	Seg 2 yellow	Seg 2 red	Seg 2 green	Seg 2
blue	Byte 1
	Segment 3 LED properties	Seg 3 yellow	Seg 3 red	Seg 3 green	Seg 3

	Segment 4 LED properties	Seg 4 yellow	Seg 4 red	Seg 4 green	Seg 4

	Segment 5 LED properties	Seg 5 yellow	Seg 5 red	Seg 5 green	Seg 5

	Buzzer sound (buzzer style 1…8)				Buzzer	Byte 5

The properties of the LED segments are defined as follows:

3	2	1	0	Colour
0	0	0	0	off
0	1	0	0	red
0	0	1	0	green
0	1	1	0	orange

0	1	0	low flash rate medium
0	1	1	low flash rate fast
1	0	0	high flash rate slow
1	0	1	high flash rate medium
1	1	0	high flash rate fast

Analogue mode

While in operation the controller transmits an analogue value between 0 and 100 % in byte 0 via PDout %. Byte 1 determines the representation of the visual signalling. 9 different representations are possible. Byte 5 defines the acoustic signal (only with DVx510 and DVx530). 8 different acoustic signals are available.

7	6	3	2	1	PDout
Analogue value 0….100 %	Byte 0
		Representation LED (style 1…..9)	Byte 1
					Byte 2
					Byte 3
					Byte 4
	Buzzer sound (buzzer style 1….8)		Buzzer	Byte 5

The signal lamp generates the following visual indications of the analogue value depending on the data in byte 1.

Operation of the standard version

The unit is connected to the digital outputs of the controller via an 8-pole cable (see accessories at www.ifm.com). The 6 HTTL inputs of the signal lamp are triggered with 24 V DC. According to the set parameters, the 5 LED segments are on and the buzzer sounds (only with DVx510 and DVx530). The signal inputs can be triggered either in PNP or in NPN technology (→ 6.2 Standard device (DV15x0)). With the parameter setting button the following properties can be set for every LED segment:

Colour (red, green, orange, blue, violet, turquoise, white, yellow, off)
Frequency (permanently on, low flash rate slow/medium/fast, high flash rate slow/medium/fast)
Brightness (100 %, 75 %, 50 %, 25 %)

Parameter setting via the IO-Link interface (pin 8 of the M12 connector) is also possible. After parameter setting, the unit goes to the Run mode.

Demo mode

In demo mode, the unit demonstrates the different

colours
visual indications of analogue values (styles)
buzzer sounds (buzzer styles, provided the unit features a buzzer)

Set the parameter [Demo mode] in the IO-Link parameter setting tool (e.g. LR DEVICE). For SIO and IO-Link mode, the demo is available in 3 different speeds, respectively.

Parameter setting

IO-Link version

The unit can be configured using an IO-Link parameter setting tool (e.g. LR DEVICE) (→ 3.1 IO-Link). More information is given in the IODD at www.ifm.com.
