Installation Read this section to learn how the vision system connects to standard components and accessories. For a list of options and accessories, contact your Cognex sales representative. Note: Cables are sold separately. CAUTION: All cable connectors are keyed to fit the connectors on the vision system. Do not force the connections or damage may occur. Mount the Vision System: Top Housing 1. Align the holes on the mounting surface with the mounting holes on the vision system. 2. Insert the M4 screws into the top mounting holes and tighten. The maximum torque is 2.00Nm (17.70in-lb). Do not...

Connect the Ethernet Cable CAUTION: The Ethernet cable shield must be grounded at the far end. Whatever this cable is plugged into (typically a switch or router) should have a grounded Ethernet connector. A digital voltmeter should be used to validate the grounding. If the far end device is not grounded, a ground wire should be added in compliance with local electrical codes. 1. Connect the Ethernet cable's M12 connector to the vision system's ENET connector. 2. Connect the Ethernet cable’s RJ-45 connector to a switch, router or PC, as applicable.

Laser Safety Warnings l l l l Do not stare into the beam. Do not view directly with optical instruments (magnifiers). Do not place optical components (mirrors) into the beam. Design test fixtures in such a way that unintentional viewing of the beam is prevented. Switch off the laser when not in use. Avoid the use of highly reflective materials. If you cannot, try to angle the part so unintentional viewing of the reflection is prevented. Terminate (block) unused beams. Keep the laser plane horizontal or pointing downwards. Report any issues that may have an impact on laser safety to your supervisor...

Label Locations WARNING: Laser light, do not stare into beam: Class 2M laser product. Failure to follow these instructions may cause serious injury.
