SCS1 Series Quick Operation
GENERAL INFORMATION
SCS1 is a smart camera sensor suitable to many industrial automation applications, including process
and quality inspection, mechanical part verification, measurement and positioning, as well as filling and
labelling control.
The sensor can be set either as stand-alone using the Teach-in function, or via PC graphic interface
through the Ethernet port and thus fully exploiting the device’s most advanced functions. During sensor
configuration, 2 digital PNP outputs can be activated according to the required inspection.
SCS1 presents a standard M12 8-pole connector for power supply, switching outputs, hardware trigger,
configurable I/O, RS485 or RS232, as well as a M8 4-pole connector for external illuminator control.
Standard CS-mounting optics, available as accessories, provide flexibility in terms of operating distance
and field of view, while integrated or external illuminators particularly suit all application lighting
requirements. The installation of the compact 100x75x40 mm sturdy metal housing is easy and rapid,
thanks to specifically designed fixing brackets that guarantee precise mounting.
This guide provides basic information necessary to power up the device and configure an inspection. It
is a simple overview that does not provide the complete details of the all functions and options available.
Please refer to the SCS1 instruction manual for further information.

INSTALLATION
Check the following necessary components: SCS1 sensor, 16mm C-mount lens and adapter compatible
with the sensor’s CS-mount or alternatively any optics with CS mounting or C mounting with adapter,
cable with M12 8-pole connector, 24 Vdc power supply, cable with M8 4-pole connector (if an external
illuminator is used), Ethernet 10/100 Mbps cable (if the SCS1 graphic interface via PC is used).
Thread optics onto the
sensor
Connect the sensor to the PC using the Ethernet
10/100 Mbps cable (optional).
Power the cable with the M12 8-pole
connector.

At powering, the device initialisation process lasts approximately 30 sec during which the “SCS1” text is
visualised. During the initialisation the General Purpose Input (pin 3) must not
be active, otherwise the
push-buttons will be locked. In this case, re-boot the sensor.
