Consistent software-based signal processing with GENIUS ONE

The electronics behind GENIUS ONE illustrate what is possible in metal detection technology today. Combined with Sesotec metal detectors, it helps to create an easy-to use, high-precision metal sensor that can stand up to wear and tear. GENIUS ONE features self-monitoring and auto-learn functions, and it supports HACCP processes through proven audit check routines.

Operating data is automatically recorded in the logbook. With the right interfaces, GENIUS ONE has the potential to be a valuable quality data management tool that can be linked with other devices.

Easy operation

GENIUS ONE is easy and fast to operate. All essential status information and function related

notifications are displayed on the 5“ touchscreen. The menu guides users through various tasks.

The operating concept was developed in line with the ISO 9241-110 dialogue principles to achieve a high degree of usability: The key dialogue criteria include suitability for the task, self-descriptiveness, controllability, conformity with user expectations, error tolerance, suitability for learning and suitability

for individualization.

The user interface has been optimized with usability criteria in mind and in consideration of the dialogue principles.

Quick access to essential functions such as the logbook, product teach, product changes and system settings makes GENIUS ONE fast and easy to operate. What is more, users can change the menu language with just two clicks, regardless of the menu currently being displayed.

Teach in products and compensate product effects

Multi-product storage

 Device settings for 300 different products can be stored. Product changes are fast and easy, including an option to track batches by entering and searching for a batch number.

Auto-set system and product compensation

This feature automates the entry of product specific device settings. By automatically determining the best device setting for optimum detection and outstanding noise immunity, it also prevents false alarms due to product effects, which can be caused by salt, moisture and other factors.

Full Teach function

Set products for all device frequencies while maintaining manual pre-installed settings. Users can select the working frequency based on the learning results.

Quick Teach function

Simplified learning process for product compensation following changes in factors such as product

composition or batch.

Detection technology – stability and precision

Multi-frequency technology (optional)

Choose from two detection frequencies during automatic product setting for maximum sensitivity to all kinds of metal, even with different products.

Best detection results for different products

Direct digital synthesis (DDS)

Accurate digital signal synthesis of detection frequencies guarantees constant, precise

transmission signals.

Accurate input: the basis of accurate measurement and correct output

Stop-and-go operation

Enables safe and reliable metal detection even under stop-and-go conditions such as during discontinuous conveyance.

Suited for stop-and-go operation

Automatic balance control

Compensates for environmental influences and temperature fluctuations, as well as mechanical and

age-related changes in the detection coil and components.

Interference-free operation anywhere within a facility

Product tracking

Makes it possible to automatically adapt product compensation in the event of slow product changes due to factors such as composition, moisture or thawing for optimum detection sensitivity without false alarms at all times.

Interference- and disruption-free operation even with gradual product changes

Robust, reliable, maintenance-friendly

Self-monitoring system

Constant self-monitoring of all key system functions of the control unit and the linked detector.

Reliable operation

Reject control system

Precise control and function monitoring of linked separation systems with compressed air, reject and fill-level monitoring.

Reliable removal of detected metal

Robust design

Ensures accurate metal detection even in tough industrial settings and under extreme mechanical

loads.

The stainless steel housing and easy-to-clean design with IP65 protection marking is ideal for

use in the food and pharmaceutical industries, making it suitable for other industrial applications

as well, such as in the rubber or plastics processing industry.

Long service life

Universal power supply

Universal power supply for the 100-240 VAC (+/-10%), 50/60 Hz input voltage range for global

use of the device without modification or adaptation.

Easy installation worldwide

Data exchange hardware

Optional interfaces

– Easy system integration by using an RS232 or RS485 serial interface

– Ethernet port (TCP/IP 100 Mbit/s) for network capability

– Profibus interface

Easy system integration by attaching an appropriate interface

QA documentation functions

Audit check

Flexibly configurable audit routines in line with HACCP,

IFS or BRC standards with automatic recording of test object used, date, time and user ID.

Secure and reliable QA tool

Logbook

The logbook function can document up to 1,500 events and incidents and make them available for

audits and internal evaluation, plus it prevents any manipulation or tampering in the device. The

function keeps records of events and incidents such as attempts to turn the system on or off,

product or batch changes, metal detection reports, audit check routines, setting changes, detailed error messages with date and time, and current users.

Complete documentation in the device

Password protection

Data and settings are protected from changes.

Users must enter the correct password to change or delete data and settings, plus the system offers

four different user levels with different authorizations.

Counters

A variety of counters are available for recordkeeping and statistics. Errors, metal and products

can be tallied in different categories such as batch, user, product or device.

Equipped for analysis
