1.1 Purpose
This document provides instructions for technical staff on the installation and operation of
the Camera Systems in the ICR880/890 series with focus control and the following variants
of system components:
– System 1:
ICD880 Camera with standard lens (focal distance 80 mm (3.15 in)) and ICI890-x11xx
illumination (length 750 mm (29.5 in))
– System 2:
ICD890 Camera with standard lens (focal distance 135 mm (5.32 in)) and ICI890-
x10xx illumination (length 900 mm (35.4 in))
– System 3:
ICD890 Camera with standard lens (focal distance 135 mm (5.32 in)) and ICI890-
x00xx illumination (length 1,100 mm (43.3 in))
All systems comprise a version of the co-ordinating MSC800 Controller.
A summary of all available Camera System versions is shown in Chapter 3.1.3 Device ver-
sions, Page 20.
This document contains the following information about the Camera Systems:

SOPAS-ET Configuration Software
The register tabs for configuration of the Camera Systems and the MSC800 are re-
ferred to in the SOPAS-ET Configuration Software online help as "device pages".
1D codes generally mean bar codes also called linear codes.
2D codes generally mean stacked codes and matrix codes. Chapter 9 Technical data,
Page 81 lists the code types readable by the Camera System.
