l The safety of any system incorporating this product is the responsibility of the assembler of the system.
l Do not install Cognex products where they are exposed to environmental hazards such as excessive heat, dust,
moisture, humidity, impact, vibration, corrosive substances, flammable substances, or static electricity.
l Route cables and wires away from high-current wiring or high-voltage power sources to reduce the risk of
damage or malfunction from the following causes: over-voltage, line noise, electrostatic discharge (ESD), power
surges, or other irregularities in the power supply.
l Do not expose the image sensor to laser light. Image sensors can be damaged by direct, or reflected, laser light.
If your application requires laser light that might strike the image sensor, use a lens filter at the corresponding
laser wavelength. For suggestions, contact your local integrator or application engineer.
l This product does not contain user-serviceable parts. Do not make electrical or mechanical modifications to
product components. Unauthorized modifications can void your warranty.
l Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for regulatory compliance could void
the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
l Include service loops with cable connections.
l Ensure that the cable bend radius begins at least six inches from the connector. Cable shielding can be
degraded or cables can be damaged or wear out faster if a service loop or bend radius is tighter than 10X the
cable diameter.
l This device should be used in accordance with the instructions in this manual.

Specifications
Acquisition Trigger Input

The vision system features one acquisition trigger input, which is optically isolated. You can configure the acquisition
trigger input to trigger from an NPN (current sinking) or PNP (current sourcing) device.
Specification Description
Voltage ON: 15 to 28V DC (24DC nominal)
OFF: 0 to 5VDC (11.5VDC nominal threshold)
Current (Typical) ON: 2.6mA to 4.9mA from 15 to 28V input
OFF: < 830µA for < 5VDC input
Resistance: ~6 kOhms
Delay (Typical) 13µs
l To trigger from an NPN type photoelectric sensor or PLC output, connect COMMON IN to +24VDC and connect
TRIGGER to the output of the photoelectric sensor. When the output turns ON, it pulls TRIGGER down to 0VDC,
turning the opto-coupler ON. For more information, refer to Breakout Cable on page 70.
l To trigger from a PNP photoelectric sensor or PLC output, connect TRIGGER to the output of the photoelectric
sensor and connect COMMON IN to 0VDC. When the output turns ON, it pulls TRIGGER up to +24VDC, turning
the opto-coupler ON. For more information, refer to Breakout Cable on page 70.
64
Specifications
General-Purpose Inputs
The vision system features three built-in general-purpose inputs, which are optically isolated. The inputs can be
configured as either NPN (current sinking) or PNP (current sourcing) lines.
Voltage ON: 15 to 28V DC (24DC nominal)
OFF: 0 to 5VDC (11.5VDC nominal threshold)
Current (Typical) ON: 2.6mA to 4.9mA from 15 to 28V input
OFF: < 830µA for < 5VDC input
Resistance: ~6 kOhms
Delay (Electrical) 100ns (maximum)
l For NPN lines, connect COMMON IN to +24VDC and connect IN 1 to the output of the photoelectric sensor or
PLC. When the output turns ON, it pulls IN 1 down to 0VDC, turning the opto-coupler ON.
l For PNP lines, connect IN 1 to the output of the detector and connect COMMON IN to 0VDC. When the output
turns ON, it pulls IN 1 up to +24VDC, turning the opto-coupler ON.
65
Specifications
High-Speed Outputs
The vision system features four1 built-in, high-speed outputs, which are optically isolated. The high-speed outputs can be
used as either NPN (current sinking) or PNP (current sourcing) lines.
Voltage 26.4VDC maximum through external load
Current 50mA maximum sink or source current
OFF state leakage current 100µA
External load resistance 470 Ohms to 10K Ohms
Each line rated at a maximum 50mA, protected against over-current, short circuits and transients from
switching inductive loads. High current inductive loads require an external protection diode.
Delay 15ms ON time (maximum) and 40ms OFF time (maximum)
(Electrical)
For NPN lines, the external load should be connected between the output and the positive supply voltage (<26.4VDC).
The output pulls down to less than 3VDC when ON, which causes current to flow through the load. When the output is
OFF, no current flows through the load.
For PNP lines, the external load should be connected between the output and the negative supply voltage (0VDC).
When connected to a 24VDC power supply, the output pulls up greater than 21VDC when ON, and current flows through
the load. When the output is OFF, no current flows through the load.
66
Specifications
High-Speed Output Wiring

To connect to an NPN-compatible PLC input, connect one of the vision system's high-speed outputs directly to the PLC
input. When enabled, the output pulls the PLC input down to less than 3VDC.
To connect to a PNP-compatible PLC input, connect one of the vision system's high-speed outputs directly to the PLC
input. When enabled, the output pulls the PLC input up to greater than 21VDC.
To connect the high-speed outputs to a relay, LED or similar load, connect the negative side of the load to the output and
the positive side to +24VDC. When the output switches on, the negative side of the load is pulled down to less than
3VDC, and 24VDC appears across the load. Use a protection diode for a large inductive load, with the anode connected
to the output and the cathode connected to +24VDC.
67

Cleaning/Maintenance
Cleaning/Maintenance
Clean the Housing
To clean the outside of the vision system housing, use a small amount of mild detergent cleaner or isopropyl alcohol on
a cleaning cloth. Do not pour the cleaner on the vision system housing.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to clean any In-Sight product with harsh or corrosive solvents, including lye, methyl ethyl
ketone (MEK) or gasoline.
Clean the Image Sensor Window

To remove dust from the outside of the image sensor window, use a pressurized air duster. The air must be free of oil,
moisture or other contaminants that could remain on the glass and possibly degrade the image. Do not touch the glass
window. If oil or smudges remain, use a cotton bud and alcohol (ethyl, methyl, or isopropyl) to clean the window. Do not
pour the alcohol on the window.
Clean the Cover

To remove dust from the lens cover, use a pressurized air duster. The air must be free of oil, moisture or other
contaminants that could remain on the lens cover. To clean the plastic window of the lens cover, use a small amount of
isopropyl alcohol on a cleaning cloth. Do not scratch the plastic window. Do not pour the alcohol on the plastic window.

Appendix
Appendix
Mechanical Vignetting
All lenses are designed to cover a certain “image circle” size, which can be found in the lens manufacturer’s
specification. The image circle size is the diameter of the optical image the lens can produce. If a vision system has 2/3”
image sensor, you must use a lens that produces at least a 2/3” image circle.
Otherwise, the lens optics will not cover the image sensor, resulting in dark corners. The mismatch of image circle to
image sensor size is one cause of mechanical vignetting.
The In-Sight D905 vision system has a 2/3” image sensor. The S-Mount/M12 lenses used in the autofocus module (ISAF-
7000-8mm) and the S-Mount/M12 adapter kit (ISLN-7000-SMNT) have a smaller image circle. Therefore, these S-Mount
lenses will cause mechanical vignetting when used with the In-Sight D905 vision system, and the corners of the image
will be cropped to the size of the lens.
Here is an example of mechanical vignetting when using the In-Sight D905 vision system with an 8mm S-Mount/M12
lens at a 100mm working distance:
81
Appendix
Remove the Illumination Accessory PCB

If the illumination accessory (ISLM-7000-WHI) must be uninstalled from the vision system, complete the following steps
to safely remove the PCB and avoid damage to the vision system.
CAUTION: Do not hot-plug the illumination accessory. Verify the vision system is not receiving power when
connecting or disconnecting the illumination accessory. Failure to remove power during this procedure may result
in damage to the vision system and/or the illumination accessory.

2. Use a 2mm hex wrench to remove the four spacer screws. Remove the spacer.
3. The vision system faceplate includes two lift points on either side of the PCB. Position an insulated extractor tool
(for example, Jonard Tools S-340 DIP/IC Extractor) under the edges of the PCB.
82
Appendix
4. Once the extractor is engaged under the edges of the PCB, gently pull upward to disengage the PCB from the
internal connector and remove the PCB.
5. Verify the removal process did not damage mating components.
