COMPLIANCE
CE Compliance
CE marking states the compliance of the product with essential requirements listed in
the applicable European directive. Since the directives and applicable standards are
subject to continuous updates, and since Datalogic promptly adopts these updates,
therefore the EU declaration of conformity is a living document. The EU declaration of
conformity is available for competent authorities and customers through Datalogic
commercial reference contacts. Since April 20th, 2016 the main European directives
applicable to Datalogic products require inclusion of an adequate analysis and assess-
ment of the risk(s). This evaluation was carried out in relation to the applicable points of
the standards listed in the Declaration of Conformity. Datalogic S.r.l. products are mainly
designed for integration purposes into more complex systems. For this reason it is under
the responsibility of the system integrator to do a new risk assessment regarding the
final installation.

all the sides of the Industrial Vision processor have at least 100mm of clearance
above and below and 50mm of space to the side and behind for sufficient ventila-
tion.
When installed at an angle, the convection of air through the MX-E Series
device is reduced, which decrease the maximum permissible ambient tem-
perature for operation. Check the device temperature to avoid immediate
CAUTION cancellation of the warranty.
4. Connect the I/O cable, optional monitor, and optional keyboard to the MX-E Series
Industrial Vision Processor. Connect the I/O cable to the terminal block. When a
new processor is powered on the first time, a monitor, keyboard, and mouse must

Vision Processor and Cameras at the factory. You will probably not need to
change them unless there is a conflict with other devices on your network.
NOTE
13. Start the Impact Software program Vision Program Manager and click on the Set-
tings tab. Check your camera and lighting setup, calibrate the camera, configure
your inspection parameters, then put the camera online. For more information
about using Impact software, refer to the Impact Reference Guide.
If your system does not work when you are finished with the setup, review the instruc-
tions and diagrams to make sure you made all connections properly.
Please note that Datalogic cannot guarantee the performance of MX-E Series systems
which have additional software installed on them, including, but not limited to, anti-
virus and firewall software. Datalogic recommends that MX-E Series systems remain dis-
connected from networks that access the Internet in order to minimize security risks.
Datalogic will attempt to support systems with antivirus software installed, but we can-
not guarantee system performance.

Grounding Concepts
Functional ground is a low impedance current path between electrical circuits and
ground. It is used, for example, to improve immunity to disturbances, but is not a pro-
tective measure. Grounding deflects disturbances, but does not necessarily provide pro-
tection against electric shock.
The functional ground on the Industrial Vision Processor has two connections:
• Supply voltage GND terminal
• Grounding connection on the processor back panel
To guarantee a good functional ground:
16 MX-E SERIES
USB HARDWARE KEY
• Connect the Industrial Vision Processor to the central grounding point in the con-
trol cabinet using the shortest route possible.
• Use a cable with a minimum cross section of 2.5 mm² per connection. If a cable
with wire tip sleeves is connected to the supplied power plug, then a cable with
maximum 1.5 mm² per connection is possible.
• Use shielded cable for all data connections.
CFAST CARD
A CFast slot is located in the Industrial Vision Processor front. A CFast card can be used
as removable media for transferring data, performing upgrades, or for extended stor-
age.
This CFast slot is connected to the chip set internally via SATA 1 with SATA III design
(SATA 6 Gbit/s).
2. Press the ejector at the bottom of the slot with a pointed object, such as a pen.
BATTERY
Risk of explosion if battery is handled improperly or replaced by an incor-
rect type. Do not recharge, disassemble, or dispose of in fire. Lithium bat-
teries are considered hazardous waste. Dispose of used batteries
WARNING according to battery maker’s instructions or in accordance with applicable
local regulations.
The lithium battery (CR2477N, 3 V, 950 mAh) powers the internal real-time clock (RTC).
It is located behind the processor’s front cover. The battery has a limited service life and
should be replaced at least every four years.

3. Press down on the slot cover’s top clip to open the battery slot.
4. Do not hold the battery by its edges. Using the removal strip, carefully pull the bat-
tery out of its slot.
5. Insulated tweezers may be used to insert the new battery in the slot. Be sure the
removal strip is in place to make the next battery replacement easier.
INTRODUCTION
This section describes digital cameras provided by Datalogic S.r.l. and other third-party
manufacturers. USB cameras will not operate on an MX-E Series Industrial Vision Pro-
cessor.
Datalogic S.r.l. does not support the use of these cameras in any manner other than
described herein.
E-Series cameras acquire an image when a signal is present on the trigger input of the
camera trigger/power cable, then digitize images at the camera source and transmit
them directly to the Industrial Vision Processor over the Ethernet cable. These cameras
provide 8-bit resolution using internal 12-bit A/D converters and some have progressive
scan shutter exposure (allowing individual pixel readings). Third-party cameras may
have different specifications. All cameras are capable of Gigabit transmission rates.
E-Series cameras have a hard-coat finish case that helps eliminate ground loops. All
camera settings (shutter, strobe, partial scan, etc.) are configured using Impact software
and are maintained in the MX-E Series Industrial Vision Processors’ memory so there
are no physical switches on the cameras.
All camera settings must be configured using the Settings tab in the Vision Program
Manager (VPM) or in the Settings program. For more detailed information, refer to the
Impact Reference Guide.
We recommend that the sum of the pixel resolution of all the cameras con-
nected to an MX-E25/45 Industrial Vision Processor with 8G RAM not
exceed 32Mbyte. This limit is not enforced by Impact software, but, if the
NOTE limit is exceeded, the IMPACT user interface performance will degrade.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Read all of the following instructions before setting up your camera. Save this document
for later use.
• Follow all warnings and instructions in this manual and in other user guides
shipped with your hardware components.
• Do not attempt to disassemble the camera. Do not remove screws or attach-
ments. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to Datalogic S.r.l.
• All E-Series and third-party cameras connect to the MX-E Series Industrial Vision
Processors using a Cat5E Ethernet cable (606-0677-xx). Cat6 cable is required for
distances greater than 25 meters. Using any other cable may cause intermittent
data transmission. Cameras connect to power and triggering signals using a cable
and terminal block. See “Camera Connection” on page 46 for more details.
We recommend that you do not use a switch or a router between the MX-E
Series Industrial Vision Processor and the camera.
NOTE
• This camera is designed for indoor use. Do not expose it to moisture, including
rain or snow, and avoid operating it in wet areas. Should the camera become wet,
turn off the power immediately. Moisture can damage the camera and create dan-
ger of electric shock. Avoid using the camera when the humidity is above 80%.
• Make sure your camera has enough airflow around it for proper ventilation. The
safe case temperature during operation is from 0° to 50° C (32° to 122° F).
• Mount the camera body in a fixed position where it will not be subject to exces-
sive vibration.
• To reduce stress on the camera connectors and cable, loop the cables and fasten
them to the camera's mounting block. Do not crimp or tie the cables tightly with
wire ties as this may damage them internally. The minimum cable bend radius is
fifteen times the cable diameter. It is not intended for continuous flexing or move-
ment. Be sure that cables are safely routed away from vehicle and pedestrian traf-
fic.
• Check the intended installation area to be sure there is enough room for the cam-
era and any lighting that may be needed.
• Avoid areas with excessive heat, vibration, and environmental contaminants.
• Mount the camera away from devices that emit large amounts of electromagnetic
energy.
• Do NOT attempt to clean the camera imager or imager cover. Do NOT spray the
imager or imager cover with compressed air as this may leave spots.
• Do not leave the camera imager uncovered. When you remove the lens cap, you
must replace it with a lens.
CAMERA BASICS
Rolling Shutter Cameras support
(M197, M197C)
Stationary objects: When imaging stationary objects, you can use static lighting and
set the strobe trigger width to 0. The camera will operate in a rolling shutter mode,
which means that each row starts exposure at a different time, but is exposed for the
same amount of time. If the object is moving, the rolling shutter causes a “shearing”
effect in the image. For a stationary object, the rolling shutter has no ill effects.
Moving objects: When imaging moving objects, you must use strobed lighting. You
must set the “Strobe Pulse Width” to a non-zero value and set the shutter open time to
be longer than the strobe pulse length. Ambient light should be minimized. The camera
will operate in “Global Reset Release” mode, which means that all rows will start expo-
sure simultaneously, but, due to the rolling shutter architecture, the bottom rows will
be exposed longer than the top rows. Using strobed lighting negates the effect of the
different exposure times. Static or ambient light will cause the lower rows of the image
to be brighter and therefore should be minimized.
2. Using VPM camera settings, set the white balance to factory defaults. You should
re-calibrate the white balance after the shading is corrected.

3. Adjust the exposure and other settings to create a grey level of 50 to 75% at the
center of the image. Note the exposure setting.
8. Set the Transport Layer/Read Timeout and the Write Timeout to 3000.
9. Set the User Set Selector to Default and click the User Set Load button.
11. Set the Acquisition Control/Exposure Time to the setting found in Step 3 using
VPM.
12. Snap and image using the One Shot button. An image should be displayed.
13. Verify that the image pixel values are medium intensity, not saturated or very
dark. Adjust the exposure time and other settings, if necessary.
14. Move to the JAI Custom Control area of the Feature Window.
15. Select the preferred Shading Correction Mode. You will probably want Flat Shad-
ing, which corrects for both brightness variations and color variations. The other
option of Color Shading will only correct for color variation and leaves brightness
variation uncorrected.
19. Repeat steps 16, 17, and 18 for Green and Blue.
20. In the User Set Control area, set User Set Selector to User Set 1 and click the User
Set Save button.
21. Close the Pylon Viewer and restart IMPACTDevice.exe and VPM.
22. The camera will now load the shading correction each time it starts.

Stationary objects: When imaging stationary objects, you can use static lighting and
set the strobe trigger width to 0. The camera will operate in a rolling shutter mode,
which means that each row starts exposure at a different time, but is exposed for the
same amount of time. If the object is moving, the rolling shutter causes a “shearing”
effect in the image. For a stationary object, the rolling shutter has no ill effects.
Moving objects: When imaging moving objects, you must use strobed lighting. You
must set the “Strobe Pulse Width” to a non-zero value and set the shutter open time to
be longer than the strobe pulse length. Ambient light should be minimized. The camera
will operate in “Global Reset Release” mode, which means that all rows will start expo-
sure simultaneously, but, due to the rolling shutter architecture, the bottom rows will
be exposed longer than the top rows. Using strobed lighting negates the effect of the
different exposure times. Static or ambient light will cause the lower rows of the image
to be brighter and therefore should be minimized.

The response times for the strobe output on the M1xx and E1xx camera will typically fall
into the ranges specified below. The exact response time for your application will
depend on the external resistor and the applied voltage you use. The shutter begins
opening simultaneously with the “Camera Strobe Output” in the diagram. Set the
strobe time 60 to 110 microseconds longer than you would on a M2xx to account for
the delays. The shutter time must then be set a little longer than the strobe time.

CHAPTER 5
CABLE REFERENCE
This chapter documents MX-E Series Industrial Vision Processor and Camera cable
assemblies.
Ethernet
An Ethernet cable (Part number 606-0677-xx) is used to connect the MX-E Series Indus-
trial Vision Processor to the GigE camera and between the Processor and any external
network. The last two digits of the part number indicate the cable length in feet. We
recommend you use shielded Cat5e Ethernet cable or better to connect the camera and
the Processor. Cat6 cable is required for distances greater than 25 meters. Using any
other cable may cause intermittent data transmission.
A crossover cable is not required because the Ethernet ports are auto-negotiating; that
is they can tell the difference between a peer-to-peer connection and a router/switch
connection and they configure themselves and the communications to suit the environ-
ment.
Input/Output
The terminal block and cable for connecting MX-E Series Industrial Vision Processor are
listed in the table below. For connection diagrams, see “Industrial Vision Processor I/O
Connection” on page 70. The last two digits of the part number indicate the cable length
in meters.
Power Supply
This equipment is to be powered by a Listed power supply for the U.S. and Canada, or a
power supply that meets the requirements for use where either IEC 60950 or EN60950
is applicable.
See “Power Supply Connection” on page 16 for more details on wiring the power supply
cable.

A standard serial cable is used to connect the Industrial Vision Processor to the serial
port on an external device (e.g. terminal, PLC, motion controller, data recorder). This
may require using a null modem cable or adapter. The serial port does not support hard-
ware (CTS/RTS) or software (Xon/Xoff) data flow control. Impact software supports RS-
232 communication protocol only. RS-485 is not supported.

CHAPTER 8
SYSTEM RESTORATION
This chapter describes how the Restoration Partition on Datalogic MX-E Series Indus-
trial Vision Processors can be used to restore the vision device to its original factory
configuration. The process to modify the Windows User Interface Operating language is
part of the Restoration.
Completing this process will delete ALL the data on the Processor drive.
You should create and maintain a current backup of any data that you can-
not replace on the drive before attempting a language change and system
CAUTION Restoration.
THIS SYSTEM RESTORATION WILL NOT RESTORE ANY DATA YOU HAVE
ADDED TO THE DRIVE SINCE THE PROCESSOR LEFT THE FACTORY.
MX-E25, MX-E45
In order to complete System Restoration, it is mandatory to use the VGA
port of your Vision Processor.
NOTE
After the MX E-Series Processor factory configuration was complete, an image of the
system drive was created. A copy of this drive image was saved on a separate partition
on the processor drive. To restore the system to its factory configuration, load this Res-
toration Partition onto the primary part of the drive so it can be used.
The ability to change the language that the Operating System uses for the User Interface
is an integral part of the Restoration process. If you change the language, you must also
complete the System Restoration. To complete this process, a keyboard must be con-
nected to one of the USB ports labeled on the front of the processor. (You may need to
remove the USB Hardware key. It must be replaced after Restoration).
2. Turn on processor power. While the system is restarting, repeatedly press the F8
key on the computer keyboard when you see “Datalogic” on the screen.
3. The menu displayed in Figure 1 should appear on the screen after a few seconds.
If the menu does not appear, the system will continue until the Windows restart is
complete. If this happens, restart this procedure at step 1.
