CLV61x

Intended Use

The CLV61x bar code scanner is an intelligent SICK 4Dpro 
 sensor and is used exclusively for automatic, stationary iden-

tification and decoding of bar codes on moving or stationary 

objects. The data content of the decoded bar codes is sent  
by the CLV61x to a superordinate computer for further pro-
cessing. Depending on the model, this is either done directly 
via a serial data interface (RS-232) or indirectly via the  
SICK CAN sensor network on a coordinating device (e.g., 
master).  
Correct use also includes compliance with all information in 
these operating instructions as well as in the supplemen-
tary

“CLV61x Bar Code Scanner” Technical Information 

 

(no. 8015592). 
The product family CLV61x consists of the three series ECO, 
CAN, and FIELDBUS (FIELDBUS in combination with the 

optional CDF600-21xx fieldbus module). Depending on the 

model, the series offer the following options:
•  Reading range variants (e.g., Short Range, Long Range)
•  Line scanner or raster scanner
•  Reading window on front or side
•  Different connecting cable lengths

All devices have two serial data interfaces (HOST/AUX). The 
CAN and FIELDBUS series also offer the SMART decoder for 

identifying partly damaged or low-quality bar codes as well as 
an additional CAN interface. 

About This Document 

The purpose of these operating instructions is to allow you 
to put the CLV61x into operation quickly and easily and to 
achieve initial read results as a stand-alone device.
The operating instructions describe the commissioning pro-
cess for an application with a 

single

 CLV61x. This is done, for 

example, using the device version CLV610-C0000 from the 
CAN series and its default setting. The CDB620 connection 
module, for example, is used for the industrial-standard signal 
distribution of the CLV61x. 
The operating instructions are valid for the following variants:
•  CLV610-C0000 (CAN, Mid Range, line scanner, reading 

window on front, SMART decoder)

•  CLV615-F2000 (FIELDBUS, Long Range, line scanner, 

reading window on side, CAN, SMART decoder)

In the following, the bar code scanner CLV61x is referred to in 

simplified form as “CLV61x.”

Safety Information

•  This chapter is about the safety of commissioning person-

nel, as well as operators of the system in which the CLV61x 
is integrated. 

•  Read these operating instructions before starting any work 

on the CLV61x in order to familiarize yourself with the 
device and its functions. The operating instructions are 
considered a part of the device and must be kept in an 
accessible location in the immediate vicinity of the CLV61x 
at all times!

•  The CLV61x corresponds to laser class 2.  

Laser warning notice 

 see 

“Optical radiation: Laser class 

2 Page 6”

.

•  Opening the screws of the CLV61x housing will invalidate 

any warranty claims against SICK AG. For further warranty 
provisions, see the General Terms and Conditions of SICK 
AG, e.g., on the delivery note of the CLV61x.

Commissioning and Configuration

Scope of Delivery

•  CLV61x in the ordered version (series, reading range, scan-

ning method, reading window orientation)

•  Accessories that can be optionally ordered such as e.g. 

brackets

Step 1: Mounting

NOTE

Radio interference may occur when the CLV61x is used in 
residential areas!

 

>

The CLV61x must be used exclusively in industrial environ-
ments (EN 61000-6-4).

Equipment Required

•  2 x M5 screws for mounting the CLV61x on a mounting de-

vice (bracket). Screw length is dependent on the mounting 
base (wall thickness of bracket). When using optional SICK 
brackets, screws for the CLV61x are included.

Mounting Requirements

•  The permitted ambient conditions for the operation of the 

CLV61x must be complied with (e.g., temperature, radi-
ated emission, ground potential 

 see section  

“Technical 

Specifications (Excerpt) Page 5” and 

section 

“Risk of 

injury/risk of damage via electrical current! Page 2”

).

•  The device must only be mounted using the pairs of 

threaded mounting holes provided for this purpose. 

• 

Stable mounting device with sufficient load-bearing capac

-

ity and suitable dimensions for the CLV61x. 
Weight depends on model, max. 206 g (not including 
cables). For dimension drawing, 

 

see section 

“Device 

overview CLV61x” on page 3

•  Shock and vibration-free mounting.
•  Clear view of the bar codes to be measured on the objects. 

Mounting CLV61x

1.  Select a suitable mounting location for the CLV61x with a 

clear view of the object to be scanned. The mounting loca-
tion and position depend on the respective reading range 
of the CLV61x version. The available reading range is 
dependent on the distance from the code and the required 
resolution. The mounting location must therefore be cho-

sen whilst taking into account the respective reading field 

length and height, as well as resolution and depth of focus 
(

 see section 

“Reading fields Page 5”)

.

2.  Mount the CLV61x on a bracket using both screws. 

Mounting example: use of quick-clamping device (clamp bracket) 

no. 2025526 in combination with the mounting bracket no. 2020410

3.  Depending on the scanning method, roughly align the 

CLV61x on the object with the bar code to be measured.
