Purpose This document provides instructions for technical staff on the installation and operation of the bar code scanner series CLV640 with dynamic focus position in the following versions: • Line scanner / raster scanner / line scanner with oscillating mirror •...
RS-232 or Ethernet. Important Any warranty claims against SICK AG shall be deemed invalid in the case changes to the bar code scanner, such as opening the housing, this includes modifications during installation and electrical installation or changes to the SICK software.
Always observe the latest valid version of laser protection regulations. Bar code scanners in series CLV640 operate with a laser of wavelength λ = 655 nm (red Important light). The radiation emitted is not harmful to human skin.
All values with unwired switching outputs. 2.5.2 Dispose of the device after decommissioning SICK AG will not currently accept the return of any devices which can no longer be operated or repaired. Inoperable or irreparable devices must be disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner and in accordance with valid country-specific waste disposal guidelines.
Setting up the bar code scanner The CLV640 Bar Code Scanner consists of a laser scanner (laser diode and lens) with dy- namic focus position and an electronic unit with an integrated decoder. The laser scanner and electronic unit are located in a housing.

Overview of the bar code scanner's product features and functions Bar code scanner methods of operation The CLV640 Bar Code Scanner is an intelligent sensor system for automatic and non-con- tact detection and decoding of bar codes. In principle, the codes can be detected on any side of still or moving objects in a conveyor system (single-side reading).
4.6.3 Switchable focus position The focus position can be changed for the CLV640 thus covering a wide reading area. You can define up to 8 reading areas for the distance configuration which can be started in any order by the lens in reading operation.
(the rear edge of the object has left the end of the reading field) or during the reading pulse if certain configurable conditions have been fulfilled.

CAN interface Physical data interface. Controls construction of a rapid SICK-specific CAN SENSOR network with various functions (e.g. multiplexer, master/slave). Access to the CLV640 Bar Code Scanner for configuration is possible via the CAN interface (network) using the SOPAS-ET configuration software in remote mode.

Allows, among other functions, the output of the reading result in tel- egram form to the host/PLC. Physically switchable to RS-232/RS-422/485 and Ethernet (port 2112) or CAN. Works as a gateway in conjunction with the SICK-specific CAN-SENSOR network. Provides various transfer protocols (except for CAN).
