Image-based code reader
en
intended use
the Lector620 image-based code readers are intel-
ligent SICK-4Dpro sensors. the Lector620 is used
for automated, fixed identification and decoding of
codes on moving or stationary objects. they read all
commonly used 1D codes (bar codes/stacked codes)
and 2D codes (matrix codes). The Lector620 uses its
host interface to send the read data to a higher-level
computer for further processing.
the Lector620 product family offers several variants:
Professional, High Speed, DPM Plus, oCr and eCo.
these include further sub-variants depending on the
model.

about this document
In this document, the Lector620 is referred to as
“device” for simplicity's sake.
the purpose of these operating instructions is to allow
you to commission the device quickly and easily and
to achieve initial read results. these instructions de-
scribe a stand-alone application for a device based on
the default settings. the optional CDB620-001 con-
nection module is used as a sample for the industrial-
standard signal distribution of the device.
these operating instructions are applicable for the
variants according to the type code.

supplementary and other relevant documents
More information, such as application examples and
downloads of associated documents and associated
software, can be found on the SICK product page on
the Internet:

Information about configuration can be found in the
online help function of the SOPAS ET configuration
software.
For your safety
• this chapter is dedicated to the safety of commis-
sioning personnel and personnel operating the
system in which the device is integrated.
• read these instructions carefully before commis-
sioning the device in order to familiarize yourself
with the device and its functions. the operating
instructions must be kept in the immediate vicinity
of the device where they can be accessed at all
times.
• Do not look into the reading window of the device
in order to dazzling from the bright, integrated light-
ing.

See “Warning! Optical radiation: LED risk
• to comply with the variant-dependent IP 67 / 65
enclosure rating in operation, the following require-
ments must be met. If this is not done, the device
does not fulfill any specified IP enclosure rating.
• the black cover for the microSD card slot and
USB port must be screwed tight to the device.
• Devices with swivel connector: the cables
plugged into the M12 connectors are locked in
place.
• electrical connections that are not being used
must be fitted with protective caps or plugs,
which must be screwed tight (as they are on
delivery).
• only operate the device without the cover for
the microSD card slot for a short period while
inserting or removing the memory card. During
this time, protect the device against moisture
and dust.
• opening the screws of the device 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 device.
• Data integrity: SICK AG uses standardized data
interfaces, such as standard IP technology, in its
products. the emphasis here is on the availability
of products and their features. SICK AG always
assumes that the integrity and confidentiality of the
data and rights affected by the use of these prod-
ucts will be ensured by the customer. In all cases,
appropriate security measures, such as network
separation, firewalls, virus protection, and patch
management, must be taken by the customer on
the basis of the situation in question.
aiming laser
cautiOn
Optical radiation: class 1 laser
the accessible radiation of the aiming lasers does
not pose a danger when viewed directly for up to 100
seconds. It may pose a danger to the eyes and skin in
the event of incorrect use.
• Do not open the housing. opening the housing will
not switch off the laser. opening the housing may
increase the level of risk.
• Current national regulations regarding laser protec-
tion must be observed.

Warning! Optical radiation: LeD risk group 1
the LeDs may pose a danger to the eyes and skin in
the event of incorrect use.
• Protect the eyes and skin against radiation.
• Use suitable eye protection.
• Use protective measures such as a screen to shield
the radiation.
• Do not open the housing. opening the housing will
not switch off the light source. opening the housing
may increase the level of risk.
• Comply with the current national regulations
on photobiological security of lamps and lamp
systems.
For both types of radiation:
It is not possible to entirely rule out temporary
disorienting optical effects, particularly in conditions
of dim lighting. Disorienting optical effects may come
in the form of dazzle, flash blindness, afterimages,
photosensitive epilepsy, or impairment of color vision
for example.
• cautiOn – if any operating or adjusting devices
other than those specified here are used or other
methods are employed, this can lead to dangerous
exposure to radiation.
• If the device is operated in conjunction with exter-
nal illumination systems, the risks described here
may be exceeded. This must be taken into consid-
eration by users on a case-by-case basis. It may be
advisable to consult the manufacturer.
