1Presentation of the range of CHR sensors

Based on the innovative optical principle of chromatic confocal imagery (STIL patent), the range of

CHR sensors constitutes a new generation of high-resolution, non-contact dimensional sensors for

microtopography, shape and texture analysis, roughness measurement, reverse engineering and many

other metrological applications.

These modular, compact and sturdy sensors are capable of operating both in industrial environments

for in-line inspection during production process, and in laboratory environments as high precision

instruments.

The CHR sensors can be used to measure any type of object (transparent or opaque, polished or

rough) and any material (metal, glass, ceramic, plastic, semiconductor, fabric, paper, leather…), and

do not require any preparation of the sample.

They provide simultaneously:

the distance of the measured sample point

the intensity of the retro-diffused light beam,

the thickness of a transparent sample.

For further information on the optical measurement principle which forms the basis of the STIL

technology, and for an overview of available products, visit the STIL company web site at the following

address: www.stilsa.com

2Presentation of the CHR 150

The CHR 150 consists of an opto-electronic unit (“controller”) and one or more interchangeable

chromatic objectives (“optical pens”), each of them equipped with an optical fiber cable.

2.1 Controller

The controller comprises a light source (Tungsten-Halogen lamp), a spectrometer and a DSP-based

processing board. This board controls data acquisition, performs the computation, and provides

display and data transmission functions via the RS232 port or via the 0 – 10 V analog outputs.

The front panel of the controller features:

On-Off switch Optical fiber lead

socket

(“Sensor Input”)

4-keys keypad

LCD display

The rear panel of the controller features:

2.2 Optical pen and optical fiber

The optical pen is totally passive, since it incorporates no heat sources or moving parts, thus

avoiding any thermal expansion which could affect the accuracy of the sensor.

When handling the optical fiber lead which links the optical pen to the controller take care to avoid

bending the fiber to a radius of curvature of less than 20 mm. When no optical fiber is connected,

the socket must at all times be fitted with its protection cap to avoid contamination of the fiber tip,

which could result in malfunctioning of the sensor.

3Safety

The CHR 150 is an opto-electronic instrument. It is safe in normal operating conditions:

3.1 Ther al Hazards

The temperature of the Halogen lamp and its support is very high.

3.2 Electrical Hazards

The CHR 150 controller box should be opened by qualified technicians only.

Electrical hazards might exist, especially during an inappropriate intervention on the instrument.

Unplug the instrument from the power outlet before changing accessories, maintenance, cleaning, or

changing the halogen lamp.

3.3 Optical Hazards

The optical pen emits a beam of visible light with wavelengths ranging from 450 to 900 nm.

The flux contained in this beam is smaller than or equal to 30µW, a value largely under the MPE

(Maximum Permissible Exposure). Thus, independently of the light path inside the room and its

possible reflections, this light beam cannot induce any burn to the skin nor to the eyes.

3.4 General Reco endations

Do not use the instrument if it has been dropped and shows signs of damage or functions improperly.

In this case do not open the instrument and contact our help line: after-sale@stilsa.com

Repairs should only be carried by qualified technicians using original replacement parts.

In case of inappropriate use or failure to comply with the instructions, the manufacturer disclaims all

liability and the guarantee will not apply.

3.5 Co pliance to the EC regulation 89/336/EEC « Electromagnetic Compatibility »

The CHR –150 sensor complies to the generic or specific requirements of the following harmonized

standards

•EN 50 081-1 Spurious emission

•EN 61000-6-2 Resistance to disturbance

Be very careful when changing the halogen lamp in order to avoid the risk of a severe burn.

Switch the power off and let the instrument cool down for about 20 minutes before

attempting to open the lamp drawer.

4Installation and switching on

Connect the controller to a mains socket with an earth connection, then connect the optical fiber lead

from the optical pen to the controller, taking care to comply with the correct orientation of the

connector.

Connection and disconnection of the optical fiber lead

To connect the optical fiber lead, simply insert the plug into the socket as shown in figure 1 until a

« click » is heard as it locks into position.

To remove the optical fiber from its socket, first press on the locking lever, then pull the connector

out of the socket.

Warning : When no optical fiber is connected, the socket must at all times be fitted with its

protection cap to avoid contamination of the fiber tip, which could result in malfunctioning of the

sensor.

Switch on the unit by operating the On/Off switch.

When the unit is switched on and after a brief initialisation sequence, the sensor displays the

following screen :

The intensity and distance values are both

displayed as "zero" so long as no object is

present in the measuring field of the sensor.

Int : 0 Dist (um) : 0.00

5Co unicating with the CHR 150

There exist 5 alternative methods for communicating with the CHR 150 sensor:

a) The CHR front panel displays real time measurements and the 4-keys keypad allows a direct

and easy access to sensor configuration.

b) The RS232 serial link enables sensor configuration using a specific control language as well

as acquisition of the measured data . For example, the Windows « Hyper Terminal » utility or

any other utility intended for controlling a serial link can be used to send the commands and

receive the measurements back from the sensor.

c) The « CHR Monitor » optional software is intended for configuring the sensor and launching

measurements in three operating modes (continuous visualisation, « point by

point” measurement, acquisition of a temporal profile). It can also be used to display, save and

print-out the measurements.

d) The optional « CHR DLL » optional software is used to interface the sensor with a general

purpose user program in C++ language or similar. The operating manual of the DLL includes a

large number of code samples.

e) Finally, the « CHR Setup » optional software can be used for viewing the signal from the on-

board spectrometer and for downloading new firmware versions and new calibration tables.

These advanced features may be useful for some specific applications.

For further details regarding available software, please visit our web site

http://www.stilsa.com/

Recommendation : All the software applications use the same COM port to communicate with the CHR

150. Remember to always free the port by quitting one application before attempting to connect it to

another application.

6Getting started (Tutorial 1)

This chapter is a tutorial intended for new users who wish to familiarise themselves with the main

characteristics of the CHR 150 sensor. For simplification purposes, this tutorial only introduces one

measuring mode (« Distance » mode) and one communication method (the control panel). We

recommend that new users follow this tutorial even if they wish subsequently to use another measuring

mode or a different method for communicating with the sensor.

6.1 Using the control panel

Press any key to access the control panel main menu:

As symbolised on the keypad, each key has its own main function:

F1 = Escape

F2 = Increase displayed value or move the cursor to the left

F3 = Decrease displayed value or move the cursor to the right

F4 = Enter.

Besides, each function displayed on the LCD display can be launched by the keys just bellow it. As an

example in the main menu shown above:

F1 may be used to clear the menu,

F2 to launch acquisition of the ” Dark” signal,

F3 to set sampling rate

F4 to enter the configuration menu, which allows setting all sensor parameters.

When configuration of the sensor is complete, the sensor prompts the operator to save the

modifications made by displaying the following message "Save settings in EEPROM ?". If the "Yes" key

is pressed, the modifications are saved permanently, otherwise the modifications are lost as soon as

the CHR 150 is switched off.

The entire menu-trees are presented next pages.
