Product features and functions (overview)
CLV640 Bar Code Scanner
•
Dynamic focus position
•
Line scanner / raster scanner / line scanner with oscillating mirror
•
Reading window on front / side
•
High scan frequency
•
Can be adapted to the print quality of the code
•
Evaluation area of the scanning line can be restricted
User safety and convenience
•
Robust, compact metal housing, CE mark
•
Laser class 2, laser switches off if the output capacity is exceeded
•
Automatic self-test on system startup
•
Diagnosis tools for system setup and system (remote) monitoring
•
Configurable reading diagnosis data display in two reading result formats
•
Operational data retrieval, error code display on request in case of errors
•
Activatable test string function (heartbeat) for signalling readiness for operation
•
Password protected configuration mode
•
Configured parameter values (cloning) can be additionally secured on a Micro SD
memory card (can be removed in the case of bar code scanner replacement )
•
Future proof due to firmware update (flash PROM) via data interface
•
Future-proof SOPAS-ET configuration software
•
Low current consumption
•
Extended power supply range
Convenient operation/configuration
•
Configuration (online/offline) using the SOPAS-ET configuration software (incl. help
system)
•
2 buttons on the device for calling up preset functions without connecting a PC
•
Status indicators via five LEDs
•
Beeper that can be switched off to confirm device functioning
Reading operation modi
•
Start/Stop operation
Reading pulse
•
Pulse sources for start: switching inputs; data interface (command); automatic cycle;
CAN
•
Pulse sources for stop: reading pulse source, switching inputs, command, timer, con-
dition
Bar code evaluation
•
All common bar code types
•
Max. number of bar codes: 50 per reading pulse
•
Separation of identical codes of the same code type using the reading angle
Data processing
•
Manipulation of the output of the reading data via event-dependent evaluation condi-
tions
•
Manipulation of the output strings through filter and output sort options
Data communication
•
Host interface: two data output formats configurable, switchable to different physical
interfaces, parallel operation possible
•
Aux interface: fixed data output format, switchable to different physical interfaces, par-
allel operation possible
Electrical interfaces
•
Host interface: RS-232, RS-422/485 (data format and protocol can be configured) and
Ethernet, or CAN
•
Aux interface: RS-232, (fixed data format, data transfer rate and protocol) and Ether-
net
•
CAN interface for integration into the SICK-specific CAN-SENSOR network
•
Digital switching inputs
– Standard version: Two digital switching inputs for external reading pulse sensor(s)
or incremental encoder, using optocoupler
– Ethernet version: One digital switching input on the device
•
Digital switching outputs
– Standard version: Two digital switching outputs for signalling definable results in
the reading process (reading result status)
– Ethernet version: No digital switching output on the device
