Mounting with external ring light

If a lot of light is required for the applications, you can mount and connect an external ring
light. The external ring light is also used, for example, when the lighting is not parallel to the
viewing direction with strongly reflecting objects.

Proceed as follows to mount the SIMATIC MV540 optical reader with an external ring light:
1. Remove the protective foil from the reader.
2. When using an E-focus lens: Insert the straight connector of the lens cable into the
interface of the reader (a).
3. Screw the desired lens into the lens mount of the reader.
Ensure the correct alignment of the lens so that the interface is close to the
cutout/interface (a). If needed, unscrew the lens slightly. If needed, align the lens using
the knurled nut/spring/counter ring.
4. When using an E-focus lens: Use the lens cable to connect the E-focus lens to the
reader.
Insert the angled connector of the lens cable into the interface of the lens and the straight
connector into the interface of the camera. Ensure that the cable does not become
twisted.
