Overview
SIMATIC MV440 with built-in ring light and D65 protective barrel and
with external ring light and D65 protective barrel
The SIMATIC MV440 readers have been specially developed
for use in industrial production. The devices offer professional
decoding algorithms for machine-readable codes and text
recognition in one device for production and logistics. The
SIMATIC MV440 device family is characterized by flexibility,
reliability and ease of use.
The list of readable codes includes all common matrix and
barcodes which, regardless of the printing technology and the
carrier medium used, are recognized reliably. A special feature
of this device is its ability to read data matrix code (DMC) which
is frequently used, especially in production, for direct part mark-
ing (DPM) and places the highest demands on the readers.
The operating range of the devices extends from close range
70 mm to distant range 3000 mm. Due to the freely selectable
lenses and lighting, the working range as well as implementation
in applications with special requirements is almost unrestricted.
Integration in industrial automation environments is via standard-
ized fieldbus technology, but open interfaces are also sup-
ported.

Benefits
Highlights at a glance:
•
Compact design with IP67 degree of protection.
•
Very high reading reliability and read rates thanks to Siemens
decoding algorithms.
•
Different screen resolutions can be selected specific to the
application.
•
Flexible adaptation to the application by means of freely
selectable lenses and lighting.
•
Option of integrated or external high-performance lighting
•
Variety of interfaces: Ethernet (PoE), PROFINET (PoE), RS232,
DI/DO, communication module interface.
•
Wide range of connector technology can be used by means
of communication modules.
•
Function block for PROFINET/PROFIBUS can be used with
SIMATIC and SIMOTION.
•
Web-based user interface can be used for parameter
assignment and monitoring, without the need for installation.
Further important product characteristics are:
•
No special knowledge required for reliable parameterization
of reading features. Automatic "setup" by presenting a
readable code pattern.
•
Autotrigger mode: automatic detection of a code without an
external trigger signal
- Savings in sensor technology and cabling.
- Reduced potential for error as there are fewer components.
- Solution for applications in which proximity switches and
light barriers cannot be used.
•
Multicode: Reads multiple codes in one step within the same
field of view.
•
ID-Genius: a high-performance code reading algorithm for
poorly legible directly marked data matrix codes (DPM: Direct
Part Marking).
•
Code quality evaluation: Displays the key quality parameters
of the code to be read.
•
Customized user interface can be generated with
SIMATIC WinCC flexible/WinCC.
•
Open web API interface for comfortable creation of
customized applications and PC based camera remote
control
•
Web-based user interface; can run on a variety of platforms
meeting the following requirements: Internet browser (IE 6.0 or
higher), JAVA-VM (MS, SUN).
•
Extensive diagnostics functions ensure operation at the
maximum read rate.
•
User/password-protected operator interface with integrated
management of access rights.
•
6 language versions (operator interface, manual and online
help are each available in English, German, French, Spanish,
Italian and Chinese).
