Correct Use
The Lector
®
620 image-based code reader is an intelligent
SICK IDpro sensor for automatic, stationary decoding of
codes on mobile or stationary objects. It reads all commonly
used 1D codes (bar codes/stacked codes) and 2D codes
(matrix codes). The Lector
®
620 sends the read data to
a higher-level computer via its host interface for further
processing.
Correct use also includes compliance with all information
in these operating instructions and the supplementary &
Lector
®
620 Image-Based Code Reader Technical Information.
The Lector
®
620 product family offers several variants:
Professional, High Speed, DPM Plus, OCR and ECO.
These include further sub-variants depending on the model
"Type Code", page 3).
In this document, the Lector
®
620 image-based code reader
is simply referred to as the "Lector
®
620", unless a clear
distinction needs to be made between variants.
About This Document
These operating instructions apply to all variants of the
Lector
®
620. They allow you to put the Lector
®
620 into
operation and obtain initial read results quickly and easily.
They describe the use of one Lector
®
620 with device
parameters set to their defaults.
SICK connection module CDB620-001 is used, for example,
for industry-standard signal distribution with the Lector
®
620.
Supplementary and other Applicable Documents
More detailed information about mounting and electrical
installation in these operating instructions is available in

Safety Information
This chapter is about the safety of commissioning personnel,
as well as operators of the system in which the Lector
®
620
is integrated.
Read these instructions carefully before commissioning
the Lector
®
620 in order to familiarize yourself with the
device and its functions. The operating instructions are
considered a part of the device and must be kept in
an accessible location in the immediate vicinity of the
Lector
®
620 at all times!
Do not look into the reading window of the Lector
®
620
in order to dazzling from the bright, integrated lighting
( see "LED and Laser Radiation", page 4).
The following requirements must be met if the variant-
dependent IP 67/IP 65 enclosure rating is to be maintained
during operation (otherwise, the device will no longer meet
The black cover for the microSD card slot and USB port
must be screwed tight to the device.
Devices with swivel connector: the cables plugged into
the M12 connectors are locked in place.
Any electrical connections that are not being used must
tight (as in the delivery condition)
Opening the Lector
®
620 housing, which is screwed closed,
will invalidate any warranty claims against SICK AG. For
further warranty provisions, see the General Terms and
Conditions of SICK AG, e.g., on the delivery note of the
Lector
®
620.

Scope of Delivery
The ordered version (variant) of the Lector
®
620, including
protective caps or plugs. Only the ECO variant has
Printed operating instructions in German (no. 8014639)
and English (no. 8014640). Other languages (if available)
can be found in PDF format on the product page for the
Lector
®
620 at: www.mysick.com/en/lector62x.
Optional accessories, such as brackets and connecting
cables, are only supplied if ordered separately
Step 1: Mounting and Alignment
Equipment Required
Two or four M5 screws for mounting the Lector
®
620 on
a mounting device (bracket) supplied by the customer.
Screw length is dependent on the mounting base
(wall thickness of the bracket).
When using an optional SICK bracket, the screws for
mounting the Lector
®
620 on the bracket are included with
the bracket in the scope of delivery.
Mounting Requirements
The permissible ambient conditions for operating the
Lector
®
620 must be observed (e.g., ambient temperature,
ground potential see "Technical Data (Excerpt)", page
5 and "Step 2: Electrical Installation", page 2)
suitable dimensions for the Lector
®
620. Weight depends
on model, max. 170 g (not including cables).
Dimension drawing ( see "Device Layout", page 3)
Shock- and vibration-free mounting
Clear view of the codes to be detected on the objects
Mounting and Aligning the Lector
®
620
1. Connect the provided cables to the Lector
®
620
(already present on the ECO variant).
2. Optional: Attach the SICK bracket that has been ordered
separately (e.g., mounting bracket no. 2042902) to
the Lector
®
620. Refer to the "Mounting" chapter of the
Lector
®
620 & Image-Based Code Reader Technical
Information.
Otherwise, mount the Lector
®
620 on a bracket using
M5 screws. To do this, use the blind tapped holes in the
housing (pair at the front or bottom) or in the two sliding
nuts on the sides. Mounting bracket no. 2042902 can be
attached at the bottom or on the sliding nuts.
Screw the screws no more than 5 mm into the blind
tapped holes ( see "Device Layout", page 3).
