1 Safety and requirements for product use
1.1 Safety
Caution
Glare and eye irritation
With regard to the blue light hazard, the Checkbox Compact exceeds the limit
values of the free group in accordance with DIN EN 62471:2009-03. Therefore,
an assignment to risk group 1 applies for the blue light hazard. Looking at the
light source for a long or prolonged period can dazzle your eyes and cause irrita
tion. Take measures to prevent eye exposure:
 Do not remove any housing parts.
 Only mount/remove the prism support when the power supply is switched off.
 Mount the Checkbox only in its original state with closed, intact housing.
 Mount or remove the Checkbox only when the power supply is switched off.
 Mount the Checkbox in such a way that it is not possible to look directly into
the light beam.
 Also take measures to ensure that if the light beam is reflected off mirrored or
reflective objects, it does not pose a hazard (for example, by providing screen
ing).
 Do not look directly into the light beam and do not direct the beam into the
eyes of other people.
Ordinary light sources are divergent, i.e. the illuminated area becomes
larger as the distance from the light source increases. As a result, the risk
of eye injury decreases as the distance from the light source increases.
However, as the Checkbox Compact uses parallel light, the risk of eye
injury is not reduced as the distance increases; this applies to both looking
directly at the beam and looking into the beam via a reflective surface.

Warning
Risk of injury
 During operation, make sure that no danger is caused by the controlled peri
pheral equipment
Caution
Damage to components
 Before carrying out mounting, installation and maintenance work, always
switch off the power supplies
Installation site
Please note the following ambient conditions in particular:
 The mounting location must be free of vibration
 There must be stable mechanical fastening
 Clean ambient atmosphere: Free of oil, no paint spray, no grinding dust
 Screening of external light influences and extreme magnetic fields (e.g. due to
induction furnaces)
 The mounting position should be as cool and vertical as possible
In this way you will achieve optimum test results and ensure a long service life of
the device.
Transport device
In order to ensure a reliable and reproducible test result, the transporting device
used should fulfill the following requirements:
 Use a high-grade transporting system which conveys the parts at a constant
speed.
 Ensure the stable position of the parts, e.g. by means of mechanical devices.
 Ensure a good transfer of parts from the small parts conveyor to the transport
ing device and that the transporting device is mechanically decoupled from the
small parts conveyor.
 Also use mechanical devices to secure the transfer of parts from the transport
ing device to the buffer zone (e.g. drop pipe, slide, chute) of the subsequent
machine so that the orientation of parts cannot be subsequently changed.
Mounting
A mounting profile with dovetail guide is attached to the side of the Checkbox. If
you want to mount the Checkbox from the other side, remove the profile and at
tach it to the opposite side of the Checkbox.
Caution
Damage to components.
 Only modify the Checkbox in a clean environment
 Only use suitable screws. The screw-in depth in the device is limited to a max
imum of 6 mm
A connecting kit (type HMSV-12) is available as an accessory from Festo

Note
In order to ensure a reliable test result can be achieved, the glass surfaces on
the prism supports must not be scratched or dirty
 Mount the Checkbox so that passing parts do not touch the glass surfaces.
 Ensure the stable position of the parts, e.g. by means of mechanical devices.
 Clean the glass surfaces if necessary
Mount the Checkbox over the transporting device so that:
– The Checkbox and transporting device are mounted securely to each other
– The field of view of the camera is not impeded
– The optical channel is not covered by the transporting device
The Checkbox Compact has excellent imaging properties over the entire working
space. The contrast of the image is optimised for very fine details on the sensor
side.
– To achieve maximum contrast for small details, mount the device in such a way
that the objects are passed as close as possible to the prism support on the
sensor side. This is on the side with the Start/Stop button.

Caution
Danger from unexpected movement
 Check within the framework of your EMERGENCY STOP concept to ascertain
the measures necessary for putting your machine/system into a safe state in
the event of an EMERGENCY STOP (e.g. switching off the operating voltage,
switching off pressure).
Caution
Malfunctions due to excessively long cables
Long I/O signal lines reduce the resistance to interference.
 Therefore comply with the maximum permissible I/O signal line length of
30 m.
Preparing plugs and cables
Use plugs and sockets from the Festo supply programme which match the
outer diameter of the cables used (www.festo.com/catalogue).
Note
Angled connectors can transfer large forces into the device. This can lead to
mechanical destruction of the electronics.
 When using angled connectors pay particular attention to ensure that no ex
cessive force is exerted on the connections. Attach cables in such a way that
only minor forces are exerted on the connections of the Checkbox.
Note
In this way, you will avoid interference from electromagnetic influences:
 You can use unscreened cables up to 30 m in length for actuators and buffers.
 Only use screened cables and plug connectors for all other connections.
 Provide potential equalisation when connecting components via screened
cables. The cable screening and screen connections of the Checkbox are not
intended to carry compensating current caused by potential differences.
 Use large-cross-section cable that is as short as possible.
 Connect both the FE earth terminal and the cable screening with low imped
ance to the earth potential.
 At the FE connection on the front panel, use an earthing strap with a suitable
cross section.
Note
To avoid damaging the device as a result of a voltage overshoot when switching
on, please observe the following:
 Power supply is only permitted with round cables; do not use single wires.
 To avoid voltage overshoots when connecting to low impedance supplies,
please pay attention to the lower inductance of the supply cable.
 To ensure optimum attenuation of the voltage overshoot, the supply cable
should not be of too low an impedance. Festo therefore recommends a cross
section of 1.0 or 1.5 mm²
 Observe the maximum load capacity of the cable.
 Safeguard the supply cable appropriately. Do not exceed values in data
sheets. Only use regulated power supply units. First establish the secondary-
side connection, then switch on the power supply unit on the primary side. Do
not connect to sources when powered.
Note
For general protection of the device, and to avoid overloading the GND pins of
the interfaces in particular, please observe the following:
 Do not connect any outputs in parallel.
 Do not feed any voltage into the outputs; this will annul the internal current
monitoring function; if polarity reversal occurs, there is a risk that the device
will be destroyed.
 Only use the GND connection of the respective plug connector or the GND of
the power supply unit as the GND.
 Do not return any of the output signals at the PLC, actuator or buffer plug
connector to the GND of one of the other output connectors.
 If an overload occurs, the outputs will be switched off. This also applies to the
warning or error output where applicable. These are only intended for dia
gnostic purposes. To identify the operating status use the “Ready for opera
tion” signal that operates with reverse logic. If an error occurs, this is
switched off. As a result, an external control system could identify the error.
 When connecting inductive loads (solenoid coils, valves, contactors, relays,
etc.), an appropriate RC element (free-wheeling diode, RC snubber, varistor,
etc.) must be provided directly on the load.
 Select appropriate plug connectors and cables as well as suitable cross sec
tions. Do not overload the cables.

 Seal unused sockets with the protective caps supplied
4.1 Selection of the power supply unit
Warning
Electric shock
Injury to people, damage to the machine and system
 Only use PELV circuits in accordance with IEC 60204-1 (protective extra-low
voltage, PELV) for the electrical power supply.
 Observe the general requirements of IEC 60204-1 for PELV circuits.
 Use only voltage sources that guarantee a reliable electric separation of oper
ating and load voltage in accordance with IEC 60204-1.
 Make sure the power supply unit fulfils the requirements specified in the Check
box data sheet with regard to voltage, current and power.
 Allow for a sufficient power reserve.
 Observe the power consumption of connected consumers as well as system
expansions.
4.2 Connection of the operating voltage
Warning
Risk of fire
 Protect the supply cable with a 4 A fast-acting fuse.
 Use an operating voltage cable with a suitable cable cross section
 Avoid long distances between the power supply unit and the Checkbox. Long
operating voltage cables reduce the voltage supplied by the power supply unit.
Connect the Checkbox to the operating voltage as follows:
