System requirements

The following are required to start up and operate the ICR:

Electrical connecting:

1.

A SICK connection module for power supply of the ICR (15 to 30 V DC) and connection 

of the data and functional interfaces. 

Available types: 

– CDB 420-001 (no. 1 023 885) for 10 to 30 V DC, enclosure rating max. IP 65

– CDB 420-101 (no. 1 024 305) for 10 to 30 V DC, enclosure rating max. IP 65

– CDM 420-0001 (no. 1 025 362) for 10 to 30 V DC, enclosure rating max. IP 65

– or –

Alternatively, a non-SICK power supply unit with a voltage output of 15 to 30 V DC 

(functional extra-low voltage pursuant to IEC 364-4-41) and at least 

12 W 

power 

output. 

Use cable no. 6 010 137 with 15-pin D-Sub HD socket and one open end for 

connecting the ICR to the power supply unit.

2.

The following operating voltages/power output values

– CDB 420-001: 10 to 30 V DC, pursuant to IEC 364-4-41, at least 10 W

– CDM 420-0001: 10 to 30 V DC, pursuant to IEC 364-4-41, at least 10 W.

100 to 250 V AC, 50 to 60 Hz when using the CMP 400 Power Supply Module 

– If the following modules are additionally built-in in the 

CDB 420

 to 30 V DC, additionally 1 W

CMF 400 Connection Module Fieldbus: 

18

 to 30 V DC, additionally 2 W 

3.

With external clock pulse (start/stop of reading interval) supply via the “Sensor 1“ 

switching input: a suitable reading pulse sensor for signaling the presence of an object 

with a bar code, e. g. a photoelectric reflex switch.

4.

With optional external clock pulse (stop of reading interval) supply via the “Sensor 2“ 

switching input: a suitable reading pulse sensor for signaling the end of reading intervall, 

e. g. a photoelectric reflex switch.

5.

If an external field illumination is necessary: a suitable light source to be connected to 

the “Result 1“ switching output.

6.

To delay the external reading pulse using a track controll: a suitable incremental 

encoder.

7.

A higher-level computer (host) with a data interface of type RS 422/485 or RS 232.

8.

To connect the ICR to the Profibus DP and the DeviceNet: the corresponding CMF 400 

Connection Module Fieldbus (Operating instructions see 

Chapter 10.11 

“Supplementary documentation“, Page 10-44

).

9.

For connection of the ICR to the CAN bus: the operating instructions “Using the CAN 

interface“ (no. 8 009 180, English).

Starting-up and configuring:

10. A PC (at least 80486, 66 MHz, 16 MB RAM, CD ROM drive, serial interface, mouse 

(recommended) with Windows 95
