Before starting SICK AppStudio:
•
Make sure that the network communication settings are correct (see "Network
communication settings", page 34).

SICK AppSpace has a large application programming interface (API) which includes
algorithms and functionality for hardware configuration, result processing, and result
communication. The API consists of functional groups called crowns, where each crown
contains functions and events related to a specific topic.
The complete API documentation for each Inspector85x firmware release is available in
the SICK Support Portal, supportportal.sick.com.
