tools. Up to 64 differentiation tools can be placed. Up to 16 AI Count/AI OCR tools can be placed. In Sorting Mode, 8
differentiation tools can be placed. In AI Through Count Mode and High Speed/Standard Mode, the number of tools that can be placed
is two AI Count tools and one Total tool. For high accuracy, six AI Count tools and two Total tools can be placed.

current of 50 mA, the value is 2.0 V.
*12 For PoE-powered devices, IEEE802.3at Power Class 4 or higher is recommended when using AI imaging illumination units;
IEEE802.3bt Power Class 6 or higher is recommended when an AI imaging illumination unit is not in use. When using PoE, device
operation may be restricted due to power limitations.

*19 When the operating ambient temperature exceeds 40°C 104°F, install in accordance with KEYENCE instructions, taking appropriate
measures for heat dissipation to ensure that the case temperature does not exceed the rated 75°C 167°F. Refer to the instruction
manual for more information.
