OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Lector620
Image-based code reader
en
Intended use
The Lector620 image-based code readers are intel-
ligent SICK-4Dpro sensors. The Lector620 is used
for automated, xed identication and decoding of
codes on moving or stationary objects. They read all
commonly used 1D codes (bar codes/stacked codes)
and 2D codes (matrix codes). The Lector620 uses its
host interface to send the read data to a higher-level
computer for further processing.
The Lector620 product family offers several variants:
Professional, High Speed, DPM Plus, OCR and ECO.
These include further sub-variants depending on the
model. -See “Type code” on page 7.
About this document
In this document, the Lector620 is referred to as
“device” for simplicity's sake.
The purpose of these operating instructions is to allow
you to commission the device quickly and easily and
to achieve initial read results. These instructions de-
scribe a stand-alone application for a device based on
the default settings. The optional CDB620-001 con-
nection module is used as a sample for the industrial-
standard signal distribution of the device.
These operating instructions are applicable for the
variants according to the type code. -See “Type
code” on page 7.

More information, such as application examples and
downloads of associated documents and associated
software, can be found on the SICK product page on
the Internet:
www.sick.com/Lector62x
Information about conguration can be found in the
online help function of the SOPAS ET conguration
software.

• This chapter is dedicated to the safety of commis-
sioning personnel and personnel operating the
system in which the device is integrated.
• Read these instructions carefully before commis-
sioning the device in order to familiarize yourself
with the device and its functions. The operating
instructions must be kept in the immediate vicinity
of the device where they can be accessed at all
times.
• Do not look into the reading window of the device
in order to dazzling from the bright, integrated light-
ing. -See “Warning! Optical radiation: LED risk
group 1” on page 1.
• To comply with the variant-dependent IP 67 / 65
enclosure rating in operation, the following require-
ments must be met. If this is not done, the device
does not fulll any specied IP enclosure rating.
• The black cover for the microSD card slot and
USB port must be screwed tight to the device.
• Devices with swivel connector: The cables
plugged into the M12 connectors are locked in
place.
• Electrical connections that are not being used
must be tted with protective caps or plugs,
which must be screwed tight (as they are on
delivery).
• Only operate the device without the cover for
the microSD card slot for a short period while
inserting or removing the memory card. During
this time, protect the device against moisture
and dust.
• Opening the screws of the device will invalidate
any warranty claims against SICK AG. For further
warranty provisions, see the General Terms and
Conditions of SICK AG, e.g., on the delivery note of
the device.
• Data integrity: SICK AG uses standardized data
interfaces, such as standard IP technology, in its
products. The emphasis here is on the availability
of products and their features. SICK AG always
assumes that the integrity and condentiality of the
data and rights affected by the use of these prod-
ucts will be ensured by the customer. In all cases,
appropriate security measures, such as network
separation, rewalls, virus protection, and patch
management, must be taken by the customer on
the basis of the situation in question.
Aiming laser
CAUTION
Optical radiation: Class 1 laser
The accessible radiation of the aiming lasers does
not pose a danger when viewed directly for up to 100
seconds. It may pose a danger to the eyes and skin in
the event of incorrect use.
• Do not open the housing. Opening the housing will
not switch off the laser. Opening the housing may
increase the level of risk.
• Current national regulations regarding laser protec-
tion must be observed.
Illumination
CAUTION
Warning! Optical radiation: LED risk group 1
The LEDs may pose a danger to the eyes and skin in
the event of incorrect use.
• Protect the eyes and skin against radiation.
• Use suitable eye protection.
• Use protective measures such as a screen to shield
the radiation.
• Do not open the housing. Opening the housing will
not switch off the light source. Opening the housing
may increase the level of risk.
• Comply with the current national regulations
on photobiological security of lamps and lamp
systems.
For both types of radiation:
It is not possible to entirely rule out temporary
disorienting optical effects, particularly in conditions
of dim lighting. Disorienting optical effects may come
in the form of dazzle, ash blindness, afterimages,
photosensitive epilepsy, or impairment of color vision
for example.
• CAUTION – if any operating or adjusting devices
other than those specied here are used or other
methods are employed, this can lead to dangerous
exposure to radiation.
• If the device is operated in conjunction with exter-
nal illumination systems, the risks described here
may be exceeded. This must be taken into consid-
eration by users on a case-by-case basis. It may be
advisable to consult the manufacturer.

Mounting device
1. Perform one of the following steps:
• Mount the device on a bracket supplied by the
customer using M5 screws. To do this, either
use the threaded mounting holes in the hous-
ing in pairs at the front or below or use the two
M5 sliding nuts in the lateral slots. Mounting
bracket no. 2042902 can be attached at the
bottom or on the sliding nuts. Screw the screws
no more than 5 mm into the blind tapped
holes. -Dimensional drawings, see “Setup
and function” on page 4.
• Attach the SICK bracket that has been or-
dered separately (e.g., mounting bracket no.
2042902) to the device using the two sliding
blocks. Refer to the “Mounting” chapter of the
Technical Information “Image-Based Code
Reader” Lector620.
Aligning the reading window of the device

Fig. 2: Selection of the skew angle, depending on the
application
 Tilt the device away from the plane that is per-
pendicular to the surface of the code to avoid as
many interfering reections as possible. Typically,
this angle will be between 10° and 20°. In the
case of codes created on metal, e.g., by dot peen-
ing, an angle of between 0° (bright eld light) and
45° (dark eld light) may be advisable.
Mounting the CDB connection module
These operating instructions describe the commis-
sioning of the CDB620-001 connection module. For
more information, see Operating instructions
“CDB620-001 connection module operating instruc-
tions” (no. 8012119). Alternatively, you can use the
CDB650-204 connection module.
 Mount the connection module in the vicinity of
the device. If you are using the serial data inter-
face (RS-232), the recommended cable length
between the devices is maximum 5 m.
Mount the connection module in such a way that
the Lector620 remains accessible at all times.
Step 2: Electrical installation
• The electrical installation must only be per-
formed by electrically qualied persons.
• Standard safety requirements must be met when
working on electrical systems.
• Electrical connections between the device and
other devices may only be created or disconnected
when there is no power to the system. Otherwise,
the devices may be damaged.
• When using connecting or extension cables with an
open end, make sure that bare wire ends are not
touching (risk of short-circuit when the supply volt-
age is switched on). Wires must be appropriately
insulated from each other.
• Wire cross-sections in the supply cable from the
customer's power system must be designed in ac-
cordance with the applicable standards.
• If the supply voltage for the device is not supplied
via the optional CDB620-001 connection module,
the device must be protected by a separate max.
2 A slow-blow fuse in the supply circuit.
• All circuits connected to the device must be de-
signed as SELV circuits. The power supply or power
supply unit must satisfy SELV requirements in ac-
cordance with the currently applicable EN 60950-1.
(SELV = Safety Extra Low Voltage).
WARNING
Risk of injury and damage caused by electrical
current!
The device is designed to be operated in a system
with professional grounding of all connected devices
and mounting surfaces to the same ground potential.
Incorrect grounding of the Lector620 can result in
equipotential bonding currents between the device
and other grounded devices in the system. This can
lead to hazardous voltages being applied to the metal
housing, cause devices to malfunction or sustain ir-
reparable damage, and damage the cable shield as a
result of a heat increase, causing cables to set alight.
 Ensure that the ground potential is the same at all
grounding points.
 If the cable insulation is damaged, disconnect the
supply voltage immediately and have the damage
repaired.
For measures for eliminating hazards, see Chapter
“Electrical installation”, in the Technical Informa-
tion “Image-based code reader Lector620”.
1. Connect the communication interface of the
device to the PC (Ethernet or USB, depending on
model).
2. Supply power to the device according to the type
label.

With the optional plug-in memory card, the device
backs up the last permanently saved parameter set
externally as well (cloning). Furthermore, the device
has the option of recording images, e.g., in the case
of “no reads”. The OCR variant can also store learned
fonts. For the parameter safety concept and other
functions of the memory card, refer to Online help
for the device in the SOPAS ET conguration software.
The memory card is not included with delivery.
To ensure that the memory card functions reliably,
only use types approved by SICK (no. 4051366 or
no. 4077575). The device supports memory cards up
to max 32 GB. The memory card has no write protec-
tion that can be activated.
NOTE
Possible data loss or irreparable damage to the
memory card!
The device does not signal the applicable type of ac-
cess to the memory card (read or write).
 Do not remove the memory card or turn off the
supply voltage if there are parameter values in the
device that access the memory card and have been
set to “continuous” with the SOPAS ET congura-
tion software (e.g., image acquisition).
 To remove the memory card safely during opera-
tion, select the remOve Card function under analySiS
tOOlS/miCrOSd Card in the SOPAS ET conguration
software and wait for SOPAS ET to provide conr-
mation.
Inserting the memory card
The card slot can be accessed on the device behind
the black cover. -See “Setup and function” on
page 4, dimensional drawings.

Fig. 10: Open memory card slot cover
1. Loosen Torx screws (TX6, cannot be lost) on the
cover.
2. Carefully pull the upper edge of the ap away
from the housing a little at the level of the hinges
on the side. Use both of the recesses on the
inside of the ap to do this.
3. Fold the ap upwards starting from the bottom
edge.
4. Making sure it is in the correct position (with the
contacts facing the device and pointing down),
insert the memory card into the slot until it locks
into place.
5. Screw the cover on tight.
Transport and storage
Transport and store the device in its original packag-
ing, ensuring that the protective caps or plugs have
been screwed onto the electrical connections. Do not
store outdoors. To ensure that any residual moisture
present can escape, do not store the device in airtight
containers. Do not expose to aggressive media (e.g.,
solvents such as acetone).
Storage conditions: dry, dust-free, no direct sun-
light, storage temperature –20 °C to 70 °C, as little
vibration as possible, relative humidity max. 90%
(non-condensing).
Maintenance and care
The device operates maintenance-free. No main-
tenance is required to ensure compliance with risk
group RGO and RG1 and laser class 1.
 In order to obtain maximum read performance
from the device, the plastic pane of the read-
ing window must be checked for contamination
at regular intervals (e.g. weekly). This applies
especially when using the device in harsh envi-
ronments (dust, abrasion, moisture, etc.). The
reading window must be kept clean and dry for
reading.
 If the reading window is dirty, gently clean the
window with a soft, damp cloth (mild cleaning
agent).
Important!
If the pane of the reading window is scratched or
damaged, it must be replaced. Contact SICK Service
to arrange this.
Static charge may cause dust particles to ad-
here to the reading window. This effect can be
avoided by using the SICK anti-static plastic cleaner
(no. 5600006) in combination with the SICK lens
cloth (no. 4003353).
Repairs
Repair work on the device may only be performed
by qualied and authorized service personnel from
SICK AG.
Disassembly and disposal
Any device which can no longer be used must be
disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner in
accordance with the respective applicable country-
specic waste disposal regulations. As they are cat-
egorized as electronic waste, the device must never
be disposed of with household waste.
