Precautions
Observe these precautions when installing the Cognex product, to reduce the risk of injury or equipment damage:
l
An IEEE 802.3af compliant, and UL or NRTL listed, Power over Ethernet (PoE) power source rated Class 0, 2, 3
or 4 must be used. Any other voltage creates a risk of fire or shock and can damage the components. Applicable
national and local wiring standards and rules must be followed.
l
To reduce the risk of damage or malfunction due to over-voltage, line noise, electrostatic discharge (ESD), power
surges, or other irregularities in the power supply, route all cables and wires away from high-voltage power
sources.
l
Do not install Cognex products where they are directly exposed to environmental hazards such as excessive
heat, dust, moisture, humidity, impact, vibration, corrosive substances, flammable substances, or static electricity.
l
Do not expose the image sensor to laser light; image sensors can be damaged by direct, or reflected, laser light.
If your application requires the use of laser light that may strike the image sensor, a lens filter at the
corresponding laser's wavelength is recommended. Contact your local integrator or application engineer for
suggestions.
l
The In-Sight vision system does not contain user-serviceable parts. Do not make electrical or mechanical
modifications to In-Sight vision system components. Unauthorized modifications may void your warranty.
l
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for regulatory compliance could void
the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
l
Service loops should be included with all cable connections.
l
Cable shielding can be degraded or cables can be damaged or wear out more quickly if a service loop or bend
radius is tighter than 10X the cable diameter. The bend radius must begin at least six inches from the connector.
l
This device is a business-use (Class A) EMC-compliant device. The seller and user are advised to be aware of
this fact. This device is intended for use in areas outside the home.
l
This device should be used in accordance with the instructions in this manual.
l
All specifications are for reference purpose only and may be changed without notice.
