The SC5100 Controller key functions include:
• Cluster management and Host interface of a multi-sided reading tunnel based on
EBC (Matrix 320 connection via EBC Connector box) and Ethernet;
• Automatic procedure for scanner and bus controller replacement;
• Easy to use diagnostics on the reading station, based on LEDs and display
• Easy remote access to all of the reading station information, thanks to built-in
Ethernet (all models) and fieldbus (Profibus or Profinet models) connectivity
• Single and Redundant System configurations;
• Integration with Dimensioners and Vision Systems; SC5100's efficiency in hybrid
solutions
• Collects and consolidates data
• Provides systems diagnostics
• Energy Saving allows turning on/off the motors and lasers of all network scanners
according to the selected digital input, encoder, or communication channel.
• 2 Configurable I/Os, Tach and Trigger, 2 EBCs, 1 Sync In, 1 Sync Out, 4 Ethernet, 2
USB ports.
• The simple and sturdy mechanical structure makes the SC5100 Controller the ideal
solution for industrial environments.
• Fully compatible with DS8110 and DX8210 scanners.
• Trigger and Encoder/Tach PNP inputs are available via M12 circular connectors
• Connects to two CBX boxes
• SD Expansion slot
• Communicates with a variety of customer protocols
It is especially suited for the following applications:
• Parcel Sorting
• Small Package / E-Commerce
• DWS
• Airport BHS
• Retailers / Distribution
• Irregulars / Extra large / Pallets
• Loading / Unloading
• MFDS
NOTE: The SC5100 distributes trigger and encoder to all devices connected
to the EBC or Sync net interfaces. Connecting trigger and encoder to those
devices using another CBX is not necessary.
