The ICR890 High-end CCD Camera System is an intelligent sensor for the automatic
recognition and decoding of 1-D/2-D codes on moving objects in a reading station.
In combination with the MSC800 modular system controller, the ICR890 System is used as
a stand-alone device for single-side reading, e.g. from above or from the side. For a similarly
possible multi-side reading on the conveyor system, the corresponding number of systems
is combined with other SICK bar code scanners and with the co-coordinating MSC800.
The intended use of the system results from the following description of the system
components and their functions:
•The system consists of the ICD890 Camera, the ICI890 Illumination and a deflection
mirror. The ICD890 Camera is installed in a frame together with the ICI890 Illumination
as a unit parallel to the deflection mirror, either above the conveyor system (reading
from above) or at the side (side reading).
•The necessary object distance information is contained in the ICR890 System either by
an MLG Light Grid (in the case of readings from above) or by a VMS4xx/5xx Volume
Measurement System for focus control during
•The ICR890 System transfers the reading data via its HOST main data interface (serial
RS 232, RS 422/485, Ethernet or CAN), with optionally selectable diagnosis data, to a
superordinate host processor for further processing.
The ICR890 System transfers its data via the CAN interface to the MSC800, in
combination with the MSC800. The data can then be accessed from the HOST data
interface.
•The processed image information of the ICD890 Camera is located on two fast GBit
Ethernet channels. The image information can be transferred to the client display at
extremely high data transfer rates on a special PC with compatible GBit Ethernet
interface cards and GigE Vision Standard licence (real time image data transfer). The
high image quality also allows use in OCR and video coding applications.
•Configuration/Operation of the ICR890 System is carried out as standard via the AUX
auxiliary data interface (serial RS 232 or Ethernet) using the SOPAS-ET Configuration
Software, which runs on a standard client PC. Alternatively, the configuration can also
be carried out via the PC connection to the MSC800 (serial RS 232 or Ethernet).
Any warranty claims against SICK AG shall be deemed invalid in the case of other system
use or system modifications, this includes modifications during installation and electrical
installation or changes to the SICK software.
NoteThe ICD890 Camera and ICI890 Illumination must not be opened. If the devices are
opened, the manufacturer's warranty shall not apply.
2.3General safety precautions and protection measures
¾ Read the general safety precautions thoroughly and observe them during all ICR890
System activities. Also observe the warning notices above the operational instructions
of each chapter.
2.3.1Radio interferences
RF interference in case of use in residential areas.
¾ ICR890 High-end CCD Camera System is exclusively intended for use in an industrial

2.3.4LED radiation from the ICI890 Illumination
Output opening
Fig. 2-1: LED radiation outlet opening
LED radiation escapes from the entire front window of the ICI890 Illumination.
NoteThe ICI890 Illumination works with LEDs on the λ = 620 nm (red light) wavelength.
Safety information
ICR890 High-end CCD Camera System
Class 1M LED radiation (in accordance with EN/IEC 60825-1)!
Incorrect use can result in hazardous radiation exposure and the LED class being
exceeded!
The accessible radiation of the ICI890 Illumination is not hazardous under reasonably
foreseeable conditions, provided that the beam width is not reduced by optical instruments,
e.g. magnifying glass, lenses or telescopes. Visual glare, loss of colour vision and eye
injuries cannot be ruled out.
The entire window surface is the LED radiation outlet opening.
¾ Do not look directly into the radiation source with optical instruments.
¾ Do not open the housing. (The illumination is not switched off if the housing is opened).
¾ Always observe the latest valid version of laser protection regulations.
The radiation emitted is not harmful to human skin.
Regular maintenance is not required to ensure compliance with laser class 1M.
The ICI890 Illumination operates as follows:
•The reading pulse (pulse source) controls the on and off mechanism of the LED
illumination during the reading process. The LEDs are switched on in pulsed mode
during the reading operation depending on the reading gate duration.
•A time stage (illumination timeout) automatically switches off the illumination during
the reading operation after 3 seconds (default setting) following the start of a
continuous reading pulse. This, however, does not switch off the reading pulse. The
reading pulse should be stopped via a relevant pulse signal. The next reading pulse
switches the illumination back on.
•The illumination timeout can be set or switched off within a range of 3 s to 25 h. For
safety reasons, the minimum illumination power on time is 3 seconds.
2.4Quick stop and quick start
The ICR890 System is operated via the MSC800 Controller as standard and can be
switched on and off using the controller main switch.
2.4.1Switch off the ICR890 System
¾ Switch off the power supply of the MSC800.
When the system is switched off the following data is lost:
•Application-specific parameter sets in the ICR890 System and in the MSC800
Controller which were only temporarily saved in the devices
•The last reading result of the ICR890 System
•Daily operating hours counter of the ICR890 System
2.4.2Switch on the ICR890 System
¾ Switch on the power supply of the MSC800 again.
The ICR890 System starts up using the most recent permanently saved configuration.
The daily operating hours counter is reset.
The ICR890 System has been constructed with minimum environmental pollution in mind.
Excluding the housing, the system does not contain any materials using silicone.
2.5.1Energy requirements

•MSC800-0000 logic controller: typically 10 W with 24 V DC ± 10 %
2.5.2Dispose of the device after decommissioning
At present SICK AG will not accept the return of any devices which can no longer be
operated or repaired.
¾ Inoperable or irreparable devices must be disposed of in an environmentally friendly
manner and in accordance with valid country-specific waste disposal guidelines.
The design of the ICR890 System allows for its separation as recyclable secondary raw
materials and hazardous waste (electronic scrap).
Please see Chapter 7.4 Disposal, page 95.
NoteThe battery on the internal PC card of the ICD890 Camera must be removed before the
device is scrapped.

This ICR890 System is an intelligent sensor system for automatic and non-contact detection
and decoding of 1-D/2-D codes. In principle, the codes can be detected on any side of
moving objects in a conveyor system.
For single-side readings, the codes are detected from above, below or from the side using
a camera. In order to allow easier installation and setup of the system, the camera image
is recorded using a deflection mirror.

NoteSeveral cameras can be combined to allow detection of several sides in one passage (multi-
side reading). The method of operation is described here using the example of single-side
The system is operated in combination with an MSC800 Controller. The reading results are
output at the data interfaces via the controller. External sensors deliver information via the
reading pulse, the object distance and the conveyor speed.

3.4.1Reading configuration
The ICD890 Camera detects 1-D/2-D codes line by line with the help of a CCD line. The
lines are written successively and with a high frequency into an image storage. Continuous
feeding of the object on the conveyor system produces a two-dimensional image of the
object.
NoteThe ICR890 System cannot recognize codes on stationary objects.
A moving 1-D/2-D code on an object is displayed as a grey level matrix in the image storage.
Contrast jumps are analyzed in order to scan the codes. The threshold value can be adapted
to the ambient conditions.
For more rapid analysis, the analysis area can be restricted to across the direction of
transport (code position).
The SOPAS-ET Configuration Software can, among other things, be used to configure
features, such as the code position and the symbol contrast:
Moreover, the image resolution across the direction of transport (digital zoom in dpi) and in
the direction of transport (dynamic scanning frequency in lpi) can be configured:
In order to initiate a reading process, the ICR890 System requires an appropriate signal
(trigger). The start signal is emitted via an external reading pulse sensor (photoelectric reflex switch) as standard. As soon as an object has passed the reading pulse sensor, an
“internal reading gate“ opens for the reading process.
Alternatively, a command activates the reading process via a data interface or the CANSENSOR network.
The trigger source can be configured using the SOPAS-ET Configuration Software:
P
For dynamic focus control, the ICD890 Camera requires continuous information on the
distance to the object surface. This data is provided by a lateral MLG Light Grid for readings
from above. The object dimensions are taken from the VMS4xx/5xx Volume Measurement System and processed via the MSC800 for readings from the side.
The SOPAS-ET Configuration Software can, among other things, be used to configure
features, such as the default position and the source of the distance measurement:
The area which is to be read must be illuminated with a high-performance LED illumination
when recording with the camera. The ICI890 Illumination produces a thin red illuminated
area (wavelength λ = 620 nm).
Illuminated area
Fig. 3-7: Diagram of the illumination with illuminated area
During reading from above, the light is deflected onto the conveyor system using the
deflection mirror.
Fig. 3-8: ICR890 System with deflection mirror for reading from above
The illumination is controlled by the camera and can be switched on permanently or for the
duration of the internal reading gate.
If the reading gate does not run to the end due to an error (e. g. when the conveyor system
comes to a halt), the illumination automatically switches off once the settable timeout has
expired. In order to prevent epilepsy, the minimum power-on time of the illumination is 3 s.
The illumination mode and the timeout for the ICI890 Illumination can be configured using
the SOPAS-ET Configuration Software:
To ensure correct functioning of the ICR890 System, the position and angle of the camera
and the deflection mirror have to be adjusted to the conveyor level.
Fig. 3-9: Position of the ICR890 System and the tilt angle
The position of the object trigger control (photoelectric reflex switch) on the outer right-hand
edge of the conveyor system is considered the point of reference, as viewed in the direction
of transport.
The α and γ angles must be set depending on the position of the System (e. g. on top or at
the side). In order to prevent direct reflectance, the light must be incident at an angle of
approx. 15° (β = skew) on the object surface against the direction of transport.
The position and the angle of the camera and the deflection mirror can be configured using
the SOPAS-ET Configuration Software:
In order to control the camera line frequency, the ICR890 System requires information on
the conveyor speed. An external incremental encoder delivers pulses which are used to
determine the current conveyor speed.
The conveyor speed results from the number of pulses and the resolution of the external
incremental encoder.
The increment source and resolution/speed can be configured using the SOPAS-ET
Configuration Software:
The recorded image can be generated irrespective of the decoding result for further
processing via the GBit Ethernet interface. This enables, e. g., an analysis if decoding has
been unsuccessful.
Fig. 3-10: Example of an image recording for analysis
If data processing has been successful (decoding), the marking of the corresponding image
areas can also be displayed.
The image format and the scaling/quality can be configured using the SOPAS-ET
Configuration Software:

The selected code types can be configured individually. The SOPAS-ET Configuration
Software has individual register tabs for each type.
3.4.9Data processing
Start/Stop operation
There is only one object in the reading area during start/stop operation, i. e. all the read
codes should be unambiguously assigned to the object. The start and stop of the reading
process control two reading pulse sensors at the beginning and at the end of the reading
area as standard (Fig. 3-12, page 38). The distance between each sensor is determined by
the size of the reading area. The reading process can be alternatively controlled with
command strings via the data interface. The output of the reading results is carried out
either at the end of the reading pulse (the rear edge of the object has left the end of the
reading area) or during the reading pulse if certain parameterizable conditions have been
fulfilled.
During the reading process, a maximum of 10 objects can be simultaneously situated, one
behind the other, in the tracking operation, i. e. the ICR890 System must be able to
unambiguously assign the read codes to the objects (Fig. 3-12). A reading pulse sensor
controls initiation of the reading process at the start of the reading area as standard (see
Chapter 3.4.2 Object trigger control, page 33), the end is determined by the object release
point. This also defines the size of the resulting reading area.
A regular pulse is required in order to track objects in the reading area. This is generated by
the external incremental encoder, which delivers a constant pulse at least every 10 mm
(394 mil) of movement in the direction of transport (see Chapter 3.4.6 Increment
configuration, page 35). This allows the ICR890 System to generate a clear display of the
distance between the reading pulse sensor and the object release point. Any fluctuations
during startup of the conveyor technology or reductions in speed caused by heavy objects
are also detected. For clear separation of consecutive objects, a gap of at least 50 mm
(1.97 in) is required. Reading results for an object are displayed after the rear edge of the
object has passed the object release point. Alternatively, the reading process can be
initiated by a command string via the data interface.

3.4.11Network
Although all important interfaces for displaying the reading results are available at the
ICR890 System, the system is operated via the MSC800 Controller as standard. The
MSC800 assumes system coordination for multi-side readings. The ICR890 System and the
MSC800 can be networked via the CAN bus.
The network parameters can be configured using the SOPAS-ET Configuration Software:

Under certain system conditions (e. g. for unsuccessful decoding “No Read“), two
independent switch signals can be generated at both digital outputs and can be used to
display the system status.

The ICR890 System is configured application specifically using the SOPAS-ET Configuration
Software (see Chapter 6.3.1 Overview of the configuration procedure, page 81). The
software for this runs on a PC which must be connected to one of the data interfaces
(“HOST/AUX“ RS 232 or “HOST Ethernet“) of the MSC800 or the ICD890 Camera.
As an alternative to the SOPAS-ET Configuration Software, command strings are available
upon which the user interface of the SOPAS-ET Configuration Software is based (see
Chapter 10.2 Configuring the ICR890 System with command strings, page 111).
In case of an error, startup and diagnosis can only be carried out via the SOPAS-ET
Configuration Software. The system works fully automatically in normal operation. Further
operating elements are not available at the ICR890 System.
Parameter set on the SD memory card
The configured parameter values are saved as a parameter set in the internal EEPROM of
the ICR890 System and on the SD memory card of the ICD890 Camera (cloning). If the
camera needs replacing, the memory card allows convenient and rapid transfer of the
parameter set to a new device (also see Chapter 7.3 Replacing a system or a component,
page 93).
NoteTo prevent data loss, the SD memory card should only be removed or inserted in a new
device when the system is switched off.
The card can be accessed from the rear of the camera and is located behind a cover on the
There are five LEDs for the electrical connections of the ICD890 Camera. These LEDs
display the operating status, the status of the reading result, the illumination switch status,
necessary maintenance or service tasks and data transfer to the serial main data interface.

The image/reading quality of the ICD890 Camera is affected by the resolution across the
direction of transport (pixel resolution, dpi) and the resolution in the direction of transport
(line resolution, lpi). A quadratic resolution is selected in the default setting (dpi = lpi).
Max. pixel resolution across the direction of transport
The pixel resolution across the direction of transport depends on the reading distance to the
object. Fig. 3-15 shows the curve gradient for the standard 135 mm (5.32 in) lens and the

This chapter describes the installation sequence for components of the ICR890 System and
external components.
NotePrerequisite for the installation of components is a suitable installation frame at the
installation location. The installation frame has to be assembled according to the
specifications of a project-specific dimensional sheet.
The typical installation sequence is displayed below:
•Installation of the photoelectric reflex switch
•Installation and alignment of the deflection mirror
•Installation and alignment of the ICI890 Illumination and the ICD890 Camera
•Installation of the MSC800 Controller
•Installation of the MLG Light Grid or the VMS4xx/5xx
•Installation of the incremental encoder
NoteDo not open the ICD890 Camera or the ICI890 Illumination. If the devices are opened,
the manufacturer's warranty shall not apply.

•4 fastening screws for the ICI890 Illumination
The following tools and resources are required for installation:
•Project-specific dimensional sheet
•Allen key (6 mm (0.24 in)) suitable for all screws
The general installation location requirements are described in Chapter 3.2.2, page 27. The
project-specific specifications (position of the components, distances, angles, etc.) are
contained in a dimensional sheet and have to be adhered to when installing components.
Abb. 4-1: Example of a project-specific dimensional sheet for installation
Abb. 4-4: Arrangement at the conveyor system for multi-side reading with VMS4xx/5xx
Generally, each unit consisting of an ICI890 Illumination and a ICD890 Camera is always
installed together with a deflection mirror. The front of the illumination and the reflector
surface have to be exactly parallel to each other and aligned at a right angle to the conveyor
system.
The position of the components on the installation frame is specified project specifically in
a dimensional sheet (Fig. 4-1, page 46). The specifications have to be adhered to as far as
possible during installation, since the values influence the configuration of the system to
some extent.
NoteA final (fine) adjustment of the components can only occur during startup (see Chapter 6.3,
page 80). Prerequisite for this is the complete electrical installation of the system (Chapter
5, page 53).

After loosening the clamping screws, the angle of the brackets can be adjusted from 0° to
180° as required. To achieve this, the clamping screws can be screwed into the various
threaded holes.
The deflection mirror is attached to the installation frame via two 180° brackets. The
position of the deflection mirror results from the distance to the reference point in the
direction of transport (plumb line above the pivotal point of the bracket) and the angle to
the conveyor level (see Fig. 4-6, page 49). The deflection mirror has to be installed parallel
to the conveyor level.
1. Attach a 180° bracket to each side of the installation frame using two bolts and two
slot nuts on each side.
2. Place the mounting plate of the 180°bracket vertically and tighten the clamping
screws.
3. Insert the guide pins of the deflection mirror into the grooves of the 180° brackets.

5.4.2Power supply of the ICR890 System
Power supply requirements
A supply voltage of 24 V DC ± 10 % is required for the operation of the ICR890 System
(functional extra-low voltage according to standard IEC 364-4-41 (VDE 0100 (Part 410)).
This voltage is generated by the power supply in the MSC800 as standard. The typical power
consumption per ICD890 Camera and ICI890 Illumination amounts to a total of 425 W.
NoteThe wire cross section for the power supply of the ICR890 System has to be at least 3 mm
(12 AWG). To ensure protection against short circuit/overload of the supply line, the cable
has to be protected according to the wire cross sections used. The valid standards must be
observed.
Connecting the power supply of the ICR890 System via the MSC800
1. Ensure that the external power supply for the MSC800 has been switched off.
2. Plug the 8-pole Harting HanQ8 socket of the power supply cable no. 2032926 into the
8-pole Harting HanQ8 plug POWER IN of the ICD890 Camera and fix it.
3. Attach the open cable end to the terminal strip for power supply in the MSC800. (See
Tab. 5-35, page 77 for pin/wire colour assignment of cable no. 2032926.)
NoteThe supply voltage remains switched off during the subsequent installation work!

Wiring the data interface CAN 1-IN/OUT
The CAN interface of the ICR890 System is used in the following configurations:
•In the case of single-side reading, the peripheral equipment should be wired centrally
at the MSC800.
•In the case of multi-side reading, the ICR890 System works with the MSC800 together
with further camera systems, bar code scanners and volume measurement systems
(camera control).
¾ Connect the ICD890 Camera to the 5-pole M12 socket and the open end via the CAN
1-IN connection using the cable no. 6021166. (See Tab. 5-32, page 76 for pin/wire
colour assignment.)
¾ Attach the open cable end to the CAN 1 connection in the MSC800.
¾ Attach the terminal resistance no. 6021167 to the CAN1-OUT connection of the
ICD890 Camera.
The signals for the reading pulse and increment are transmitted to the ICR890 System via
the CAN bus. Direct connection to the ICR890 System is, thus, not required. The HOST and
AUX data interfaces as well as the signals of both switching outputs (for single-side reading)
are accessible via the CAN bus at the MSC800. The ICR890 System and the MSC800 have
to be configured accordingly as Slave or Master for this purpose (see Chapter 6.3 First
The Ethernetinterface HOST ETHERNETof the ICR890 System has several functions:
•Output of the reading result of the HOST data interface via TCP/IP as an alternative to
the serial interface version RS 232, RS 422/485
•Output of data of the AUX data interface (reading result + reading diagnosis data) via
TCP/IP as an alternative to the serial interface version RS 232, RS 422/485
•Access to the ICR890 System via the SOPAS-ET Configuration Software

guarantee LED class 1M of the ICR890 System.
NoteDo not open the ICD890 Camera or the ICI890 Illumination.
If the devices are opened, the manufacturer's warranty shall not apply.
Checking the incremental encoder
If an incremental encoder is used, the position of the friction wheel at the drive system
should be checked at regular intervals.
¾ Ensure that the incremental encoder has contact with the drive system and that the
friction wheel rotates without slipping.
7.2Cleaning the ICR890 System
RecommendationIn order to make use of the full optical reading capacity of the ICR890 System, the front
window should be checked regularly (e. g. weekly) for soiling. This is especially
recommended when operating the device in harsh conditions (dust, abrasion, humidity,
finger prints, etc.).
If possible, do not clean the deflection mirror due to its structure.
7.2.1Cleaning the front window
LED radiation of class 1M (according to EN/IEC 60825-1)!
Incorrect use can result in hazardous radiation exposure and the LED class being
exceeded!
The accessible radiation of the ICI890 Illumination is not hazardous under reasonably
foreseeable conditions, provided that the beam width is not reduced by optical instruments,
e.g. magnifying glass, lenses, telescopes. Visual glare, loss of colour vision and eye injuries
cannot be ruled out.
The entire window surface is the LED radiation outlet opening.
¾ Do not look directly into the radiation source with optical instruments.
¾ Do not open the housing. (The illumination is not switched off if the housing is opened!)
¾ Always observe the latest valid version of laser protection regulations.
Damage to the front window!
Reduced reading capacity due to scratches or smears on the front window!
The front window of the illumination is made of glass. The opening for the camera within the
front window is made of special glass.
¾ Do not use aggressive cleaning agents.
¾ Do not use cleaning agents which cause increased abrasion (e. g. powder).
¾ Avoid cleaning motions at the front window which could cause scratches or abrasion.
NoteElectrostatic charges cause dust particles to stick to the front window.
This effect can be combated by using anti-static SICK synthetic cleaner (no. 5600006) in
combination with a SICK lens cloth (no. 4003353).
¾ Use a clean, soft brush to free the front window from dust.
¾ If necessary, additionally clean the front window with a clean, damp, lint-free cloth and
a mild, anti-static window cleaning fluid.
clean here
Abb. 7-1: Cleaning the front window
If the front window is scratched or damaged (cracked, broken), it must be replaced. Please
contact the SICK Service.
7.2.2Cleaning the housing
In order to ensure sufficient cooling for the illumination, make sure that the air inlet and
outlet opening are always clean.
¾ Use a soft brush to free the openings at the ventilator on top of the housing and at the
cooling ribs of the air outlet openings on both narrow sides from dust.
clean here
Abb. 7-2: Cleaning the air inlet and outlet openings at the system's illumination ICR890
Depending on the system equipment, further sensors with optical effective surfaces can be
installed (e. g. photoelectric reflex switch for external reading pulsing or MLG Light Grid for
detecting the object distance). Soiling of these sensors can cause incorrect switching
behaviour.
¾ In order to prevent incorrect switching behaviour, remove soiling from the optical
effective surfaces of the external sensors.

always allows a detailed analysis:
•Communication errors can occur while transmitting telegrams to the ICR890 System.
In this case, the ICR890 System returns an error code.
•Error codes are written into a status protocol for errors which occur during a reading.
8.2.3Status protocol
Note•The status protocol remains even after switching the device off and on again.
•The system differentiates between four error types:
–Information
– Warning
– Error
– Fatal error
The system only saves the last five entries for each of the error types.
Displaying the status protocol with the aid of the SOPAS-ET Configuration Software
In order to display the status protocol, the SOPAS-ET Configuration Software has to be
online and connected to the ICR890 System.
¾ Connect the SOPAS-ET Configuration Software to the device.
¾ Open the project tree IRC890, S
Reading the status protocol with the aid of command strings
The status protocol can also be read with the aid of command strings. There is a telegram
available for each error type.
¾ Send the telegram from the command sRN (SOPAS read by name) and the telegram
name to the ICR890 System, e. g. via the terminal in the SOPAS-ET Configuration
Software.
The ICR890 System sends an answer consisting of sRA (SOPAS write answer) the
telegram name, an error code (00000000h = no error) and information, warnings,
errors or fatal errors.
