Targeting Target Requirements The 5000 Series operates by locking onto a sharp discontinuity in the intensity of an object’s reflected or emitted light. The target is actually the edge that can be seen at the light-dark interface and can be made up of any combination of reflected, absorbed, or emitted light. The contrast in light intensities should be at least three to one. The greater the contrast, the easier it is to obtain lock-on and the less system output noise is produced. In general, any

using a small screwdriver. For high light conditions, the high voltage may be reduced, or neutral density filters can be placed in front of the lenses. Note The light source must be DC or the tracker will detect the 60 Hz change in light intensity. Techniques of Targeting There are many ways of illuminating and setting up targets. This section will deal with the two most common: front lighting and back lighting. Front Lighting A target with a discrete light/dark interface can be illuminated fro

Figure 11 Tracking Prerequisites Single Axis, Vertical or Horizontal The target and its motion should be located in the plane that is perpendicular to the optical axis. For successful lock-on, the target’s width must be greater than 10% of the full-scale measurement range, and its location must be along the tracking axis.

Figure 12 The minimum target required for vertical tracking along the vertical tracking axis. Focusing and System Noise Once you have selected a lens system selected and placed an illuminated target in front of the tracking head, open the lens aperture as wide as possible. Focus the target by moving either the head or the target to the proper position along the optical axis. The system locks onto a contrast ratio that is determined by registering the amount of light coming from both the light an

For the best signal-to-noise ratio, select the lowest cutoff frequency possible without compromising operation. 5 Target Phase Switch Allows the system to track either a light-over-dark or a dark-over-light target as seen through the viewer. 6 Ortho Input External orthogonal input used to sweep the tracker along the axis perpendicular to both the tracking and optical axes.

Model 806 Optical Head The Model 806 Optical Head is the camera that senses the position of the target. The head contains an Electron Tubes Type 9670B image dissector tube on which the lens system images the target motion. This tube converts the light motion into electron motion. The head also contains a deflection yoke used to deflect the electron motion. A beam-splitting viewer is provided to focus the optical head on the target during all stages of operation. The lens system attaches to the h

Operating Procedures General Operating Procedure 1 Prepare the target and lighting as specified. Note that the light source should be DC to eliminate the 120 Hz intensity modulation, and that the light intensity should be uniform over the target area to be measured. 2 Connect the optical head to the control unit with the cable supplied. 3 Connect the control unit to a 117 VAC power source. 4 Estimate the maximum displacement you expect from the target during operations. 5 From the Standard Lens

13 Now, move the target or tracking head so that the circle is totally within the light area of the target. See Figure 15b. Adjust the lens aperture or light source for a reading of +20% on the front panel meter. If this reading cannot be achieved, then the high voltage to the photo tube may need to be adjusted. See Focusing and System Noise on page12). 14 Repeat steps 12 and 13 until the light and dark readings are in range. 15 Set the Light/Operate switch to Operate. Vertical/Horizontal 16 T

Velocity and Acceleration Measurement Operating Procedure Full-scale output for velocity and acceleration are determined as follows: 1 Note the full-scale range of measurement (FOV) of the lens being used. 2 With the system in operation, that is with the target in motion, set the Velocity Time Constant to 0.03ms and work down until you obtain velocity peaks of just under 10V P-P. Full-scale outputs are 10V P-P and the system will clip above that. 3 When the velocity has been set for just under 1

Introduction The 5100 Displacement Follower is a non-contact, real-time motion measurement instrument that solves measurement problems where other instruments fail. It can measure the displacement of remote or inaccessible objects. The camera tracks the motion of the target and provides an analog output proportional to displacement. Custom optics allow a range in the field of view from 0.05” up to several feet. Equipment Supplied One Model 5100 Control Unit One Model 806B Tracking Head One 10’ I

System Assembly 1 Inspect the equipment for damage that might have occurred during shipment. If you find any damage, notify the shipping company immediately. 2 Attach the interconnecting cable from the control unit to the optical head and secure with the lock ring. 3 Attach the lens systems to the optical head. The lens screws into the extension barrel, and the extension barrel screws into the head. The thread system in the head is a standard Leica, 39mm diameter. Note that the 105mm lens come

Theory of Operation The system is a non-contacting electro-optical displacement follower designed to track the motion of a target along any axis. The moving target under study must show a sharp discontinuity in the intensity of its reflected or emitted light. The tracker is, in fact, locking onto that light/dark interface. The lens system focuses the image of the discontinuity onto the photo cathode of an image dissector tube. A simplified drawing of this tube is shown in Figure 1. The backside

There are two possible target configurations for measuring target displacement along the vertical axis: light over dark and dark over light. That means it must be possible to alter the phase of the current going through the deflection coils to deflect the electron image back to its original locked-on position and not away from this center position. In the 5000 Series, the target switch on the front panel of the control unit changes the phase. See Figure 2. Failure to set this switch to the targe

The Lenses Lens Systems To accommodate the working distances and measurement ranges that individual applications may require, the standard lens set supplied is appropriate for a variety of situations. Included in the set are a 105mm enlarging lens, a 50mm variable-focus camera lens, and five different extension tubes. The 105mm lens is capable of focusing at fourteen unique working distances and corresponding measurement ranges depending upon how it is assembled on the tracking head with the pos

Figure 5 shows that the equivalent 105mm lens cannot be considered to be located exactly at the end of the extension tube. Its equivalent position is, in fact, approximately 13mm further along the optical axis than the position used in the calculations. This positioning of the lens in its diaphragm varies with different manufacturers and no one rule will solve the problem. It is best simply to estimate where the plane of the lens might be located on the lens holder and measure the distance from
