Product Description
The Cognex IS5610 is a fixed-mount identification (ID) reader. A member of the Insight 5000 series, this device offers high-speed code reading capabilities. Cognex’s proprietary code-reading software, IDMax, is based on the company’s PatMax technology. IDMax software allows the camera to read and verify both text and 1- and 2- dimensional barcodes. Advanced OCR/OCV tools make text reading and verification possible on this device. The system can read codes at over 7200 ppm, further highlighting the device’s integrated speed. A 20 times speed rating and an image acquisition rate of 60 frames per second ensure that all captured images are shot in real time.
All captured images are processed with the 256 MB of photo memory. An additional 128 MB of flash storage space is available for the IS5610 to save programs and jobs. This system is also a high performance system, allowing for fast access to the tool library. A 1 GHz processor allows the device to operate these tools with ease. Included ID tools available on this device are 1- and 2-D barcode reading, text reading, and image filters. To run the device In-Sight firmware version 4.4.3 (or later) must be installed for proper functionality. Additional network capabilities are available via the built-in Ethernet or 10/100/1000 BaseT protocol. External I/O modules can interface with this device using a serial RS232C connection.
Following provided installation and storage protocols will ensure that IS5610 operates within its limits. When installed on a production line, ambient temperatures should be monitored to maintain a safe operating range. These can range from 32℉ to 113℉ (0℃ to 45℃) with non-circulating air. Should the device be taken off the line, the storage facility should be climate controlled to ensure no damages occur. Storage temperatures can range as low as -22℉ (-30℃) to as high as 176℉ (80℃). A complete installation and safety guide is provided in both the user manual as well as the device datasheet. Cognex provided original technical support for this device.
