Safety information
2.2
Intended use
The CLV62x Bar Code Scanner is an intelligent sensor for the automatic recognition and de-
coding of bar codes on objects e.g. in a conveyor system.
The intended use of the bar code system results from the following description of the func-
tion:
•
In a reading station, the bar code scanner is installed in a holder, either on the side of
a conveyor system (side reading) or above it (reading from above).
•
The bar code scanner transfers the reading data via the host interface to a superordi-
nate host computer for further processing.
•
The bar code scanner is configured/operated using the SOPAS-ET configuration soft-
ware that runs on a standard client PC provided by the customer. Communication takes
place using RS-232 or Ethernet.
Important
Any warranty claims against SICK AG shall be deemed invalid in the case changes to the bar
code scanner, such as opening the housing, this includes modifications during installation
and electrical installation or changes to the SICK software.
The bar code scanner is only to be operated in ambient air temperature limit.
