2 Safety information
2.1 General safety notes
The following safety notes must always be observed regardless of specific application
conditions:
•The device must only be mounted, commissioned, operated, and maintained by
professionally qualified safety personnel.
•Electrical connections with peripheral devices must only be made when the volt‐
age supply is disconnected.
•The device is only to be operated when mounted in a fixed position.
•The device voltage supply must be protected in accordance with the specifications.
•The specified ambient conditions must be observed at all times.
•The electrical connections to peripheral devices must be screwed on correctly.
•The cooling fins or fan - if present - must not be covered or restricted in their
functionality.
•The pin assignment of pre-assembled cables must be checked and adjusted if
necessary.
•These operating instructions must be made available to the operating personnel
and kept ready to hand.
2.2 Intended use
The device is a programmable control and evaluation unit for sensors and image proc‐
essing devices. The device also acts as a link between system and plant controls, and
the connected terminal devices. The device is mainly used in an industrial environment
in production, testing, and control. Other applications are possible depending on the
device-specific properties.
The device is programmed on a PC by using the development environment software
SICK AppSpace. Depending on the application, a browser-based, graphical user inter‐
face (HMI) can be created, which provides opportunities defined by the application
developer to influence an application at operator level.
The device connection to the peripherals is established by means of a range of indus‐
trial interfaces.
The device offers various interfaces for controlling, programming, and operating pur‐
poses, which can be activated as necessary via development environments, control
systems (programmable logic controllers), or applications.
However, configuration, programming, and control requires various technical skills,
depending on how the device is connected and used.
2.3 Improper use
Any use outside of the stated areas, in particular use outside of the technical specifica‐
tions and the requirements for intended use, will be deemed to be incorrect use.
•The device does not constitute a safety component in accordance with the respec‐
tive applicable safety standards for machines.
•The device must not be used in explosion-hazardous areas, in corrosive environ‐
ments or under extreme environmental conditions.
•Any use of accessories not specifically approved by SICK AG is at your own risk.

WARNING
Danger due to improper use!
Any improper use can result in dangerous situations.
Therefore, observe the following information:
■Product should be used only in accordance with its intended use.
■All information in these operating instructions must be strictly observed.
■Shut down the product immediately in case of damage.
2.4 Cybersecurity
To protect against cybersecurity threats, it is necessary to continuously monitor and
maintain a comprehensive and holistic cybersecurity concept. A suitable concept com‐
prises organizational, technical, procedural, electronic, and physical levels of defense
and provides suitable measures for different types of risks. SICK's products and solu‐
tions must be viewed as a component of this concept.
Information on Cybersecurity can be found at: www.sick.com/psirt .
2.5 Limitation of liability
Relevant standards and regulations, the latest technological developments, and our
many years of knowledge and experience have all been taken into account when

manufacturer accepts no liability for damage caused by:
■Non-adherence to the product documentation (e.g., operating instructions)
■Incorrect use
■Use of untrained staff
■Unauthorized conversions or repair
■Technical modifications
■Use of unauthorized spare parts, consumables, and accessories
NOTE
Programmable device
The Sensor Integration Machine (SIM) is a programmable device.
Therefore, the respective programmer is responsible for his/her programming perform‐
ance and the resulting operating principle of the device.
The liability and warranty of SICK AG is limited to the device specification (hardware
functionality and any programming interfaces) according to the agreed conditions.
Therefore, SICK AG is not liable, among other things, for damages that are caused by
programming of the customer or third parties.
2.6 Modifications and conversions
NOTICE
Modifications and conversions to the device may result in unforeseeable dangers.
Interrupting or modifying the device or SICK software will invalidate any warranty claims
against SICK AG. This applies in particular to opening the housing, even as part of
