Highlights at a glance:
- Compact design with IP67 degree of protection.
- Very high reading reliability and read rates thanks to Siemens decoding algorithms.
- Different screen resolutions can be selected application-specifically.
- Flexible adaptation to the application by means of freely selectable lenses and lighting.
- Integrated high-performance lighting.
- Variety of interfaces: Ethernet (PoE), PROFINET (PoE), RS232, DI/DO, ASM interface.
- Wide range of connector technology can be used by means of ASM communication modules.
- Function block for PROFINET/PROFIBUS can be used with SIMATIC and SIMOTION.
- Web-based user interface can be used, without the need for installation, for parameter assignment and monitoring.
Further important product characteristics are:
- No special knowledge required for reliable parameterization of reading features. "Setup" is performed automatically by presenting a readable code pattern.
- Autotrigger mode: Automatically detects when a code is in front of the reader. Ensuring that no external trigger signal is required. Advantages: Savings in sensor technology and cabling; reduced potential for error as there are fewer components; solution for applications in which proximity switches and light barriers cannot be used.
- Multicode: Reads multiple codes in one step within the same image field.
- ID-Genius: High-performance code reading algorithm for difficult directly marked data matrix codes (DPM).
- Code quality evaluation: displays the key quality parameters of the code to be read.
- Customized user interface can be generated with SIMATIC WinCC flexible/WinCC.
- Web-based user interface; can run on a variety of platforms meeting the following requirements: Internet browser (IE 6.0 or higher), JAVA-VM (MS, SUN).
- Extensive diagnostics functions ensure operation at the maximum read rate.
- User/password-protected user interface with integrated management of access rights.
- 6 language versions are available (operator interface, manual and online help are available in German, English, French, Spanish, Italian, and Chinese).
