The MSC800 modular system controller, the components of the ICR890 system, and other
components are referred to in the following simplified form in this document:
• Modular system controller MSC800, simplified: MSC800
• High-end CCD camera system, simplified: ICR890 system
• Image capture device ICD890, simplified: ICD890 camera
• Image capture illumination ICI890, simplified: ICI890 illumination
• CLV490 bar code scanner, simplified: CLV490
• MLG modular light grid, simplified: MLG light grid
• VMS4xx/5xx volume measurement system, simplified: VMS4xx/5xx
• SICK Open Portal for Application and Systems Engineering Tool, simplified: SOPAS-ET
configuration software.
The ICR890 systems and the CLV490 bar code scanner are referred to together as
ID sensors.
The tabs for the configuration of the MSC800 are referred to as “device pages” in the
online help of the SOPAS-ET configuration software.
In addition, there is the option to connect further SICK sensors which are not explicitly
mentioned in these operating instructions. For additional information, please contact
your local SICK sales and marketing company.
