QUICKSTART

Mount

Assemble the optical kit on the Lector63x. For details
see section C at the end of this quickstart.

NOTICE

SOPAS ET main window

The SOPAS ET main window is split into two panes,
the project view to the left and a list of connected de­vices to the right. To add the Lector63x to the project,
drag the device to the left project pane.

Additional expandable panels are available to the left
of and below the image area.

Use only Lector63x optics to ensure optimal image
quality and to avoid damage to the device.

Mount the device at a suitable working distance from
the object, for example using a mounting bracket

(angled bracket part no. 2076735, cooling bracket
2078970, or bracket kit 2076735). For information

about suitable working distances, see section E.

Product information

The Lector63x is an industrial image-based code
reader family for all common 1D (bar codes / stacked
codes) and 2D (matrix) codes. The result is sent to the
control system via digital output or its host interfaces:
Serial, CAN or Ethernet.

The Lector63x Flex variants feature exchangeable S-

or C-mount optics, internal lighting and lter options

to meet a wide range of application requirements.

About this document

This quickstart contains instructions that support
the set up and operation of the Lector63x Flex. Make

sure that the installation is performed by a qualied

technician.

This quickstart as well as the Lector63x operating
instructions, containing additional information, are
available in English and German online. To download:

Part

1. Connect the Gigabit Ethernet to a network or
directly to a PC.

2. Connect the power I/O to a 24 V power source.

WARNING

Ensure that the ground potential is the same at all
grounding points. Incorrect grounding or connection

can damage the device and cause re.

Ensure that any loose cable ends are isolated. Do
not connect external I/O signals to the Lector63x
while it is powered.

Congure with PC

The SOPAS Engineering Tool (ET) software for PC is

used to connect and congure the Lector63x and

other SICK devices.

To install SOPAS ET:

1. Download SOPAS ET (version 3.0.1 or newer)
from www.mysick,com/en/SOPAS_ET.

2. Run the downloaded installation le.

3. Follow the instructions on the screen.

text next to the warning symbol in the project pane to
make adjustments.

If the device driver is missing, click the text next to
the warning symbol in the project pane and follow the

instructions. The device will be in ofine mode after

installing the driver. Put the device in online mode by
clicking the

Offline button next to the product icon.

NOTICE

For Lector632x Flex, the focusing of the image is
done mechanically on the device (S-mount) or on
the lens (C-mount). To protect the device (S-mount)
from focus manipulation attach the supplied round
label to the hole in the device lid.
