Safety information
2.2
Intended use
The ICR890 High-end CCD Camera System is an intelligent sensor for the automatic
recognition and decoding of 1-D/2-D codes on moving objects in a reading station.
In combination with the MSC800 modular system controller, the ICR890 System is used as
a stand-alone device for single-side reading, e.g. from above or from the side. For a similarly
possible multi-side reading on the conveyor system, the corresponding number of systems
is combined with other SICK bar code scanners and with the co-coordinating MSC800.
The intended use of the system results from the following description of the system
components and their functions:
•
The system consists of the ICD890 Camera, the ICI890 Illumination
and a deflection
mirror. The ICD890 Camera is installed in a frame together with the ICI890
Illumination
as a unit parallel to the deflection mirror, either above the conveyor system (reading
from above) or at the side (side reading).
•
The necessary object distance information is contained in the ICR890 System either by
an MLG Light Grid (in the case of readings from above) or by a VMS4xx/5xx Volume
Measurement System for focus control during
S
ingle or multi-side reading.
•
The ICR890 System transfers the reading data via its HOST main data interface (serial
RS 232, RS 422/485, Ethernet or CAN), with optionally selectable diagnosis data, to a
superordinate host processor for further processing.
The ICR890 System transfers its data via the CAN interface to the MSC800, in
combination with the MSC800. The data can then be accessed from the HOST data
interface.
•
The processed image information of the ICD890 Camera is located on two fast GBit
Ethernet channels. The image information can be transferred to the client display at
extremely high data transfer rates on a special PC with compatible GBit Ethernet
interface cards and GigE Vision Standard licence (real time image data transfer). The
high image quality also allows use in OCR and video coding applications.
•
Configuration/Operation of the ICR890 System is carried out as standard via the AUX
auxiliary data interface (serial RS 232 or Ethernet) using the SOPAS-ET Configuration
Software, which runs on a standard client PC. Alternatively, the configuration can also
be carried out via the PC connection to the MSC800 (serial RS 232 or Ethernet).
Any warranty claims against SICK AG shall be deemed invalid in the case of other system
use or system modifications, this includes modifications during installation and electrical
installation or changes to the SICK software.
Note
The ICD890 Camera and ICI890 Illumination must not be opened. If the devices are
opened, the manufacturer's warranty
shall not apply
.
