1About this Document
This document is user guide of sensors LCI1220 and LCI1620. Sensors LCI401, LCI1200,
LCI1201 and LCI1600 are covered by separate guide. FocalSpec Software Development
Kit (FSSDK) and the API documentation can be found after FSSDK installation from
folder: C:\Focalspec\FocalSpec Software Development Kit\Manual.
2Safety Information
This chapter contains important safety information for installing and using the LCI
sensors.
•Note! Read this document carefully before use.
•Note! Keep this document for future reference.
•Note! Original instructions. The original language is English.
2.1 Safety Notes
This document uses safety notes as follows:
•Note! Notes are tips, shortcuts or alternative approaches to the task at hand.
Ignoring a note should have no negative consequences.
•Caution! A Caution statement alerts you to situations that can be potentially
hazardous to you or cause damage to hardware, firmware, software, or data.
•Warning! A Warning statement indicates conditions or situations that can be
potentially lethal or extremely hazardous to you. Safety labels are also attached
directly to products to warn of these conditions or situations.
2.2 Warnings
•Caution! Do not remove any safety devices or open the cover. Risk of injuries
and insecure operation. The warranty is void if the cover is opened.
•Caution! Do not look directly into the light source. Light radiation may damage
your eyes.
•Caution! This is a high-precision optical instrument. Protect the device from
dust and moisture and avoid subjecting it to shocks and strong forces.
•Caution! Before using the sensor for the first time, check the sensor for
transport damage. If the sensor is damaged, contact support. See
Support
.
•Warning! Use only qualified personnel for the installation of all electrical
supplies and fixtures, and make sure that all installations adhere to local
regulations and safety standards.

2.3 Proper Use
The LCI sensor is designed for the use in industrial areas. The sensor is used for optical
measurements, such as 3D topography, dimensions and distances measurements,
measuring the tomography of transparent materials, surface micro profile
measurements, and film thickness measurements.
Only use the sensor in such a way that, in the case of malfunction or failure, personnel
or machinery are not endangered.
Ambient temperature range: +15 ºC … +35 ºC.
2.4 CE Marking
FocalSpec Oy has confirmed that these products comply with the essential
requirements of the applicable EC Directive, based on the following specifications.

5Connecting to PC
10 Gbit connection with SFP+ interface is needed to enable the high-speed data
transmission.
The recommended network adapter is Intel Ethernet Converged Network Adapter X520
either two port DA2 or four port DA4 model.
Figure 1. Example of two port Intel Ethernet Converged Network Adapter X520 DA2
Windows 10 64-bit is the recommended operating systems, but sensors work also with
Windows 7.
6Installation and Mounting
3D CAD STEP as well as high-resolution versions of the drawings below are included in
the USB drive folder “hardware”. The position and orientation of the optical profile is
shown in an enlarged detail image for each model. The X, Y, Z origin in each STEP file is
placed into the middle of the optical profile.

7Handling Optical Cable and SFP+ Modules
IMPORTANT – FRAGILE
Minimum bending radius of optical cable is 100 mm. Don’t bend
cable more than this. This applies to the whole length of the
cable and it is especially important to pay attention to computer
end of the cable as it is more flexible.
Never touch optical cable fiber ends with bare hands or let the
fiber ends touch anything else but cleaning equipment.
Never put anything inside the optical fiber slots of the SFP+
module.
7.1 General Instructions
1. When storing optical cables and SFP+ modules, make sure the protective caps are
attached.
2. When the cables and SFP+ modules are in use, store the protective caps in an
airtight plastic bag.
3. Never touch the cable ends with anything other than the cleaning cloth.
4. If a cleanroom is available, it’s recommended to install SFP+ modules to cable in
there.
5. Preferably wear cloth gloves when handling cable connectors.
6. Make sure the minimum bending radius of cable bend is about 100 mm (Figure 3).
Don’t let the cable bend more than this. This applies to the whole length of the cable
and it is especially important to pay attention to computer end of the cable as it is
more flexible.
