R58 Expert
Registration Mark Sensors
Overview
R58 Expert (R58E) sensors offer maintenance-free solid-state reliability for typical color
contrasts found in product and material registration applications. Fast 50-microsecond sensing
response produces excellent registration repeatability, even in ultra-high-speed applications.
This fast response, coupled with the small 1.2 x 3.8 mm (0.05" x 0.15") sensing image, allows
the detection of even small and inconspicuous registration marks.
R58E sensors feature TEACH mode sensitivity adjustment by presenting two sensing
conditionstothesensor.TEACHmodehastwooptions:StaticTEACHandDynamicTEACH.
Static TEACH is used to position the two sensing conditions individually. Dynamic TEACH
provides a means for teaching a series of conditions on-the-fly; the R58E samples the sensing
events and automatically sets the switchpoint between the lightest and darkest conditions. The
sensor then determines which sensing condition is present for the shortest time and assigns
the Output ON condition to that event (therefore, LO/DO selection is automatic). The LO/DO
setting can then be reversed in SETUP mode.
The sensor uses a tri-color LED during either teach process and automatically selects a
red, green, or blue sensing beam, based on the contrast between the registration mark and
its background. For applications where the user wishes to select the sensing beam color,
individual colors may be enabled/disabled in SETUP mode.
Sensitivity may be fine-tuned at any time by simply clicking the “+” or “-” buttons on the
sensor. The eight-element bargraph display clearly displays the relative received signal
strength.
The discrete bipolar (one NPN and one PNP) outputs may be configured in SETUP mode to
include a 30-millisecond ON-delay and/or OFF-delay, if required.
TEACH and SETUP configuration may be accomplished either by using the push button on
the sensor, or by supplying input pulses via the remote TEACH input. The push buttons may
be diabled via the remote input.
The construction of the R58E is extremely robust, with a die-cast metal housing, plastic optics,
and IP67 and NEMA 6 leakproof design for harsh sensing environments.

Sensor Configuration
The R58E is pre-set to power up in RUN mode and sense the most recently taught registration
mark. The sensitivity of the R58E may be quickly optimized by using one of two available
TEACHmodes:StaticTEACHorDynamicTEACH.
•Static TEACH: Both the Output ON and Output OFF conditions are presented, and
sensitivity can be adjusted manually via the push buttons.
•Dynamic TEACH: The registration mark is presented during actual sensing conditions, and
the sensitivity can be adjusted manually via the push buttons.
Remote TEACH
The sensor may be configured either via its push buttons, or via a remote switch. Remote
configuration also may be used to enter SETUP mode to set ON- and OFF-delay, and to
disable the push buttons to prevent unauthorized adjustment of the configuration settings.
To access this feature, connect the gray wire of the sensor to 0V dc, with a remote switch
between the sensor and 0V dc.
Configuration is accomplished by following the sequence of input pulses (see following
procedures). The duration of each pulse (corresponding to a push button “click”), and the
periodbetweenmultiplepulses,aredenedas“T”:
0.04 seconds “T” ≤ 0.8 seconds

Static TEACH
In Static TEACH mode, the sensor learns two sensing conditions after each is presented one
time. The sensor automatically positions the switchpoint midway between the two conditions.
See Figure 3.
NOTE:ThesensorwillreturntoRUNmodeifeitherTEACHconditionisnotregisteredwithin
60 seconds. TEACH mode may be cancelled by pressing and holding the Static push
button for 2 seconds. In either case, the sensor will revert to the previous conditions
taught (i.e., exit without save).
Static TEACH and Manual Adjust
Sensitivity may be adjusted at any time when the sensor is in RUN mode by clicking the “+”
and “-” buttons. Each click translates to 1/2 segment on the signal strength bargraph display.
For best sensing reliability, both sensing conditions should register equally distant from the
switchpoint on the signal strength bargraph display.

Registration Mark Sensors
Dynamic TEACH
Dynamic TEACH is used to configure sensitivity during actual sensing conditions, when
looking for a mark against its background condition. The R58E takes multiple samples of the
registration mark against its background material and automatically positions the threshold at the
optimum level. See Figure 2. The registration mark must be presented at least two times during
Dynamic TEACH.
WhenDynamicTEACHisused,theOutputONstatewillbetheshorterduration(smaller)
event sensed, and LO/DO will be set accordingly. To change the output state, change to either
LO or DO in SETUP mode, or pulse the remote line three times (see page 8).
Maximum Feed Rate
In order to optimize performance and ensure that all LED color and gain combinations
are evaluated during Dynamic TEACH, the registration mark must encompass the 1.2 mm
dimension of the 1.2 mm x 3.8 mm sensing image for at least 0.002 seconds. Therefore, the
maximumfeedratecanbedeterminedwiththefollowingformula:
Maximum Feed Rate in mm/sec. = (registration mark width in mm – 1.2) / 0.002
Example with a 5 mm registration mark:
Maximum Feed Rate = (5 mm – 1.2) / 0.002 = 1900 mm/sec.
NOTE:Registrationmarksnarrowerthanthe1.2mmsensingimagewidthcanbedetectedat
feed rates less than 600 mm/sec, but the contrast will be reduced, due to averaging of
the background and the registration mark.
Dynamic TEACH and Manual Adjust
Sensitivity may be adjusted at any time when the sensor is in RUN mode by clicking the “+”
and “-” buttons. Each click translates to 1/2 segment on the bargraph display. For best sensing
reliability, the light and dark conditions should register equally distant from the switchpoint on
the bargraph display.

It is also used to disable one or more sensing beam colors, to force the sensor to use a
particular color. It will be necessary to access SETUP mode only if the settings which result
from TEACH mode configuration are not the settings required for the application or if a delay
is required. The status LEDs indicate the output response configuration when the sensor is in
RUNmode,asshowninFigure4.
Change the output response settings or disable sensing beam color(s) as shown in the table
on page 7.
NOTE:IfSETUPmodeprogrammingisinterruptedandremainsinactivefor60seconds,

Registration Mark Sensors
Push Button Enable/Disable (Lockout)
In addition to its configuration function, the remote input may be used to disable the push
buttons for security. Disabling the push buttons prevents unauthorized adjustment of the
configuration settings. Connect the gray wire of the sensor as described on page 3, and four-
pulsetoeitherenableordisablethepushbuttons(0.04sec.≤“T”≤0.8sec.):
NOTE:Pushbuttonscanbedisabled/enabledfromtheremotelineonly.
Installation Notes
The R58E includes a total of eight size M5 threaded holes used for mounting (see dimension
drawing on page 11). These threaded holes are positioned to match the mounting hole
patterns common to other registration mark sensors. The R58E includes four M5 x 0.8 x 6 mm
stainless steel cap screws and a hex key wrench.
The R58E focus is 10 mm (0.39") from the lens surface. The R58E must be mounted within 3
mm (0.12") of this distance from the surface of the material for reliable sensing
(Figure6).ConsiderthefollowingwhenmountingtheR58E:
•Wheneverpossible,itisagoodideatosenseawebmaterialatalocationwhereitpasses
over a tension bar or roller, to minimize the adverse effects of web “flutter” or sag (Figure 7).
•Whensensingaregistrationmarkonareective(shiny)material,mounttheR58Eat
an angle which places the lens centerline at approximately 15° off perpendicular to the
material’s surface (Figure 8). This “skew angle” will minimize strong direct reflections (which
tend to overwhelm the sensor), and allow the sensor to discern the relatively small optical
contrast offered by differences in colors.
•Clearmaterialsarepoorreectorsoflight.Whensensingamarkprintedonaclearmaterial
(e.g., a clear poly web), position a reflective surface directly behind the clear material to
return light to the R58E. The printed mark, regardless of its color, then becomes the dark
condition, as it blocks the light from reaching the reflective surface. Most clear materials are
also shiny; it is important to include a 15° skew angle when sensing clear materials (Figure
8).
Lens Location
The lens may be installed at either of two lens ports (see Figure 6). The lens and the lens port
cap are both threaded and may be exchanged by hand; no tools are required. The lens and
cap both include an o-ring seal.
NOTE:Thelensportcapmustbeinstalledontheunusedportforreliableoperation.Fullyseat
the lens cap to ensure a liquid-tight seal.

All models meet IEC 68-2-6 and IEC 68-2-27 testing criteria.
Application Notes 1. NPN OFF-state leakage current is < 200 μA for load impedances > 3kΩ or optically isolated loads.
For load current of 100 mA, leakage is < 1% of load current.
2. Do not mount the sensor directly perpendicular to shiny surfaces; position it at approximately a 15° angle in relation
to the sensing target (see page 8).
3. Minimize web or product “flutter” whenever possible to maximize sensing reliability.
