Target group for this User´s Guide
This User's Guide is aimed at experienced users, which want to integrate camera(s) into
a vision system.
Intended Use
The camera is used to capture images that can be transferred over a GigE interface
(VCXG /.I /.I.XT) or a USB 3.0 interface (VCXU) to a PC.
Classicationofthesafetyinstructions
In the User´s Guide, the safety instructions are classied as follows:
Notice
Gives helpful notes on operation or other general recommendations.
Caution
Pictogram
Indicates a possibly dangerous situation. If the situation is not avoided, slight
or minor injury could result or the device may be damaged.

9
Transport / Storage
Transport the camera only in the original packaging. When the camera is not installed,
then storage the camera in original packaging.
Disposal
Dispose of outdated products with electrical or electronic circuits, not in the
normal domestic waste, but rather according to your national law and the
directives 2002/96/EC and 2006/66/EC for recycling within the competent
collectors.
Through the proper disposal of obsolete equipment will help to save valu-
able resources and prevent possible adverse effects on human health and
the environment.
The return of the packaging to the material cycle helps conserve raw mate-
rials an reduces the production of waste. When no longer required, dispose
of the packaging materials in accordance with the local regulations in force.
Keep the original packaging during the warranty period in order to be able
to pack the device properly in the event of a warranty claim.
Warranty Notes
If it is obvious that the device is / was dismantled, reworked or repaired by other than
Baumer technicians, Baumer Optronic will not take any responsibility for the subsequent
performance and quality of the device!
Copyright
Any duplication or reprinting of this documentation, in whole or in part, and the reproduc-
tion of the illustrations even in modied form is permitted only with the written approval of
Baumer. The information in this document is subject to change without notice.

2. General Safety Instructions
Caution
Heat can damage the camera. Provide adequate dissipation of heat, to
ensure that the temperature does not exceed the value (see Heat Trans-
mission).
As there are numerous possibilities for installation, Baumer recommends
no specic method for proper heat dissipation, but suggest the following
principles:
▪operate the cameras only in mounted condition
▪mounting in combination with forced convection may provide proper heat
dissipation
Caution
Observe precautions for handling electrostatic sensitive devices!
Caution
Class A
The camera is a class A device (DIN EN 55022:2011). It can cause radio
interference in residential environments. Should this happen, you must take
reasonable measures to eliminate the interference.
