MicroSD memory card
The device has a card slot for a microSD memory card integrated in the housing. The
memory card is used as an external storage medium. The microSD memory card can
also be ordered as an optional accessory. To ensure that the memory card functions
reliably, only use card types (industrial standard) approved by SICK.

Description
Cloning
Automatically save currently valid save parameter set on an exter‐
nal storage medium. The externally stored parameter set is also
updated automatically each time the parameterization is perma‐
nently saved.
The cloning function provides the means, for example in the event
of a device fault, for manual transmission of the parameter set to
an exchange unit of the same type.
Other functions are available upon request.

Function and use
The device localizes automated guided vehicles (AGVs) by means of 2D codes.
The device is mounted on the underside of the AGV. The 2D codes are attached in
the form of a grid on the floor. The individual 2D codes are numbered and contain
position information. The device detects and decodes 2D codes. The device uses the
host interface to send the read data, the additionally determined X- and Y-coordinates,
and the angle of shift to a higher-level controller (e.g., PLC). Using this data, the AGV is
localized and repositioned by the controller.
