Step 3: Conguration
a. Conguration without PC
You can set the read properties of the device directly
on the device using the two function buttons.
1. Start “Edit” mode.

• ECO variant: The device adjusts itself automati-
cally to suit the lighting conditions and the
quality of the code.
• Professional, High Speed, DPM Plus and OCR
variants: The device adjusts itself automati-
cally to the lighting conditions, code quality and
working distance.
5. Wait until Auto-Setup has nished. The bar graph
shows the progress of the Auto-Setup function
in percent. 100% means the Auto-Setup has
nished. The color of the LED signals the result.

Tab. 2: Feedback of “Auto-Setup” LED
Important!
If the “Auto-Setup” LED lights up yellow or red, the
read result is insufcient. Check the alignment and
the distance of the device from the code. - See
“Aligning the device plus reading window with the
code” on page 2.
6. Exit “Edit” mode and save the parameters. The
existing conguration is overwritten.

Alternatively, the device saves the parameters au-

ton being pressed, and it returns to read mode.
b. Conguration with PC
The default conguration software SOPAS ET is used
to congure the device. Use at least version V2.38 to
do so. We recommend using the newest version.
Installing and starting the conguration software
1. Download and install the latest version of the
SOPAS ET conguration software, as well as
current device description les (*.sdd), from the
online product page for the software by following
the instructions provided there.
www.sick.com/SOPAS_ET
In this case, select the “Complete” option as
selected by the installation wizard. Administrator
rights may be required on the PC to install the
software.
2. When starting, select the required user interface:
• “Standard” user interface for stand-alone ap-
plications
• “Extended” user interface when the device is
integrated in a network (e.g. CAN bus).
3. Establish a connection between the software and
the device via Ethernet or USB (depending on
type).
The connection wizard starts automatically.
4. The following IP address is congured by default
on the device:
• IP address: 192.168.0.1
• Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
5. Select Lector620 from the list of available de-
vices. SOPAS ET establishes communication with
the device and loads the associated device de-
scription le for the device. The program window,
which is divided into three sections, opens.

Conguring the device
1. In the
Online image window, click the edit button. In
the edit mode, the device starts recording images
consecutively and uses the current settings to de-
code them. The effects of any parameter changes
become directly visible.
The following functions are deactivated in
edit mode:
• Switching inputs and outputs
• Data output via the host interface.
Conguring reading performance with the Wizard
Conguring with the Wizard is not possible with
pharma codes.
 Start the
autO-Setup wizard on the left in the
program window and follow the instructions in the
dialog box.
The device adjusts itself automatically with
Auto-Setup to suit the lighting conditions, working
distance, and quality of the code presented. The
device initially temporarily stores these calculated
values. SOPAS ET applies the parameters to the
two conguration bars Camera & illuminatiOn and
COdeS.
Continuing the conguration
1. For custom optimization of the image and code
settings of the device, click the
Camera & illumina-
tiOn and COdeS conguration bars on the right and
adjust the parameter values.
2. To make the changes directly visible, go to the
image display window Online imageS and click the
edit button.
3. Make settings for additional functions during
planned operation such as codes, reading clock,
read result formats, data interface, etc.
4. Go to the image display window Online imageS, click
the OperatiOn button, and test the settings in read
mode (real operation).
OCR variant only
 For optical OCR/OCV character recognition, start
the OCR Setup wizard on the left of the program
window and follow the instructions in the dialog
box.
Completing the conguration
5. To permanently store the overall conguration:
• Parameter set in the device: Click the
button.
• Conguration le on the PC: Click the
button.
