Application area
Ordering data
The SLG 41 is a low-end read/write device. It is particularly suitable for use
when the MDS conveyor system (e.g., pallets) can be physically positioned
relatively precisely. The swivel head of the SLG 41 makes it very adaptable
to the transportation system.
In dynamic operation, only a small amount of data can be read or written
between SLG 41 and MDS.
In contrast to the SLG 41, the antenna of the SLG 41-S is rotated by 90° in
the swivel head so that all positions of the transmission window can be implemented.

Application area
The SLG 41C is a low-end read/write device. It is small and compact and is
excellent for use in small assembly lines.
The high protection rating and use of high-quality materials ensure that the
SLG 41C can easily handle even most rugged industrial conditions.
It is connected with a 3-m cable which is equipped with core sleeves at the
end. This connection line can be extended with terminals or a user-provided
connection plug. This connection plug of the ASM is used for the connection
to the ASM.
The cable length of the SLG 41CC is 2 m. The end of the cable is equipped
with a twin M-12 plug. This can be used to connect the SLG 41CC directly to
an ASM 450/452/473.
