The iVu Vision Sensor can be configured in just minutes with a few simple steps. Program through the integrated or remote
touch screen without the use of a PC. As an alternate, use Vision Manager PC software to configure and monitor devices.
Use the grayscale, color, or barcode versions to solve a wide variety of factory automation applications.
2.1 Features and Indicators
The iVu BCR comes fully assembled with the lens and an integrated ring light (optional).
Integrated display models: The touchscreen display has a plastic cover to protect the display. Remove this cover when
configuring the device. When the display is not in use, keep the display covered to protect it.
Remote display models: The remote touchscreen display is not required for normal device operation, however, it is needed
to configure the device and to monitor inspections.
If an integrated ring light is not used, another light source is needed. Various lights are available from Banner Engineering.
Operating in external trigger mode requires a triggering source.
