1. First, connect the external hardware and install the external COM port of the scanner to the serial port of the industrial computer.
2. The power supply of the SICK scanner control box is 24V positive and negative induction eyes, and the feedback signals of 10, 11 and 12 corresponding to the electric eyes, 24V+, 24V-.
3. The output connection of the SICK control box outputs the alarm signal to drive the alarm lamp, and 20, 21, and 22 correspond to the output signal 1, 2, and the common end. The output signal is 24V+, and the signal output conditions can be set from the software.
4. After the hardware installation is completed, it needs to be installed, after the installation of the scanning software is completed, the 24V power supply will be provided, and the scanner will be connected to the connection port of the computer.
5. Open the software and connect the scanner. Click "Upload all device parameters" to upload the device settings.
6. After setting the above parameters, you need to download the file content to the scanner, click the "Download" button to download the parameters, and select "Save Permanently".

Sick sensors – the seven basic types of temperature sensors
1. Thermocouples
Thermocouples are voltage devices that indicate temperature measurement when voltage changes. As the temperature increases, the output voltage of the thermocouple increases – not necessarily linear.
Thermocouples are typically located inside a metal or ceramic shield to protect them from exposure to a variety of environments. ...

Sick Sensors – How RTD sensors work
Thermal resistance is used to measure the temperature of a substance when its temperature changes, and its resistance also changes with the characteristics of the change. When the resistance value changes, the working instrument will display the temperature value corresponding to the resistance value.
RTD sensors use the resistivity of conductors or semiconductors to change with temperature.
