1. General Information
Thanks for purchasing a camera of the Baumer family. This User´s Guide describes how to connect, set up and use the camera.
Read this manual carefully and observe the notes and safety instructions!
Support
In the case of any questions please contact our Technical & Application Support Center.

Target group for this User´s Guide
This User's Guide is aimed at experienced users, which want to integrate camera(s) into 
a vision system.
Intended Use
The camera is used to capture images that can be transferred over a GigE interface
(VCXG /.I /.I.XT) or a USB 3.0 interface (VCXU) to a PC.
Classicationofthesafetyinstructions
In the User´s Guide, the safety instructions are classied as follows:
Notice
Gives helpful notes on operation or other general recommendations.
Caution
Pictogram
Indicates a possibly dangerous situation. If the situation is not avoided, slight or minor injury could result or the device may be damaged.
9
Transport / Storage
Transport the camera only in the original packaging. When the camera is not installed, then storage the camera in original packaging.
Disposal
Dispose of outdated products with electrical or electronic circuits, not in the normal domestic waste, but rather according to your national law and the directives 2002/96/EC and 2006/66/EC for recycling within the competent collectors.
Through the proper disposal of obsolete equipment will help to save valu­able resources and prevent possible adverse effects on human health and the environment.
The return of the packaging to the material cycle helps conserve raw mate­rials an reduces the production of waste. When no longer required, dispose of the packaging materials in accordance with the local regulations in force.
Keep the original packaging during the warranty period in order to be able to pack the device properly in the event of a warranty claim.
Warranty Notes
If it is obvious that the device is / was dismantled, reworked or repaired by other than Baumer technicians, Baumer Optronic will not take any responsibility for the subsequent performance and quality of the device!
Copyright
Any duplication or reprinting of this documentation, in whole or in part, and the reproduc-
tion of the illustrations even in modied form is permitted only with the written approval of 
Baumer. The information in this document is subject to change without notice.

2. General Safety Instructions
Caution
Heat can damage the camera. Provide adequate dissipation of heat, to ensure that the temperature does not exceed the value (see Heat Trans-
mission). 
As there are numerous possibilities for installation, Baumer recommends no  specic  method  for  proper  heat  dissipation, but suggest the following principles:
▪ operate the cameras only in mounted condition ▪ mounting in combination with forced convection may provide proper heat
dissipation
Caution
Observe precautions for handling electrostatic sensitive devices!
Caution
Class A
The camera is a class A device (DIN EN 55022:2011). It can cause radio 
interference in residential environments. Should this happen, you must take reasonable measures to eliminate the interference.

Caution
Device heats up during operation.
Skin irritation possible.
Do not touch the camera during operation.
Caution
Heat can damage the camera. Provide adequate dissipation of heat, to ensure that the temperatures does not exceed the value (see table below). 
As there are numerous possibilities for installation, Baumer recommends no  specic  method  for  proper  heat  dissipation, but suggest the following principles:
▪ operate the cameras only in mounted condition ▪ mounting in combination with forced convection may provide proper heat
dissipation

4.2.1 EmergencyshutdownatOvertemperature(≥Rel.2only)
To prevent damage on the hardware due to high temperatures, the camera is equipped with an emergency shutdown. The DeviceTemperatureStatusTransitionSelector (Catego- ry: Device Control) feature allows you to select different thresholds for temperatures:
NormalToHigh: freely programmable value
HighToExeeded: xed value (camera shutdown if exceeded)
ExeededToNormal: freely programmable value, temperature for error-free re-ac- tivation of the camera.
In the DeviceTemperatureStatusTransition feature, the temperatures for the programma- ble temperature transitions are set.
The Event EventDeviceTemperatureStatusChanged is always generated when Device- TemperatureStatus changes.
If the temperature rises above the value set at HighToExceed, the DeviceTemperatureEx- ceeded feature is set to True, the image recording is stopped, and the LED is set to red.
For further use, the camera must disconnected from the power supply after cooling down or a device reset should be carried out.
The  sufcient  cooling  is  recognizable  when  the  event  EvenDeviceTemperatureStatus­Changed (Device Temperature < ExceededToNormal) is output.

4.3 Lens mounting
Notice
Avoid contamination of the sensor and the lens by dust and airborne particles when mounting the lens to the device!
Therefore the following points are very important:
▪ Install the camera in an environment that is as dust free as possible! ▪ Keep the dust cover (bag) on camera as long as possible! ▪ Hold the camera downwards with unprotected sensor. ▪ Avoid contact with any optical surface of the camera!
26
4.4 VCXG.I / .I.XT IP Protection classes
Notice
Denition IP65 / IP67
IP65 say that the camera housing is dust tight and hose-proof. That means it is protect­ed against water jet that is projected by a nozzle striking the housing from any direction.
IP67 stands for dust tightness besides the protection against submersion into 1 meter deep water for up to 30 minutes. The desired protection level is given as long as the difference in temperature between camera and water is less than 5 K and the water has
a temperature of 15 °C (+ 59 °F) ... 35 °C (+ 95 °F).
Caution
IP
Protection
In order to achieve the mentioned IP protection level, please note the follow­ing information:
The tube needs to be screwed on gap-free as shown in the gure below.
The M12 connectors need to be tightened with a torque value of 0.4 Nm.
For that Baumer suggests the use of a torque driver (such as Wiha TorqueVario
®
-S ESD) in combination  with a wrench for assembling sensor/
actuator cables with M12 connector (such as Phoenix Contact SAC BIT
M12-D15). 
Sealing rings
The peak torque while tightening the screws is 0.9 Nm.
Use a torque wrench!
Do not forget the seals!

4.5 Filter replacement
A lter is installed in color cameras. This lter can lead to limitations in the applicability of  the sensor for specic applications.
Proceed as follows to replace the lter.            
Notice
Avoid contamination of the lter, sensor and the lens by dust and airborne particles! 
Perform the lter replacement in a dust-free room with clean tools!

4.6 Cleaning
Filter/Coverglass
Notice
The sensor is mounted dust-proof. Remove of the cover glass for cleaning is not neces­sary.
Avoid cleaning the cover glass of the sensor if possible. To prevent dust, follow the in­structions under "Install lens".
If you must clean it, use compressed air or a soft, lint free cloth dampened with a small quantity of pure alcohol.
Housing
Caution!
volatile
solvents
Volatile solvents for cleaning. Volatile solvents damage the surface of the camera.
Never use volatile solvents (benzine, thinner) for cleaning!
To clean the surface of the camera housing, use a soft, dry cloth. To remove persistent stains, use a soft cloth dampened with a small quantity of neutral detergent, then wipe dry.
