5.1 General information for mounting
n
Recommended installation: The sensor's reference level R2 aligned in parallel towards the
surface to be measured
n
If required, the optimal alignment of the sensor can be graphically supported by the mount-
ing assistant in the web interface.
n
Angled mounting within a max. 30° angle (between the sensor's reference level R1 versus
the surface to be measured). For doing so, activate in mode Parametrization | Global
Parametrization | Field of View function Flex Mount (see Flex Mount: Compensating
mounting angles [}49]).
n
Objects suitable for measurements using the light-section technology have a bright, diffuse
and reflecting surface, for example, matt white or grey. A glossy surface can result in unsta-
ble and/or imprecise measured values, depending on angle and degree of reflection.
n
To eliminate any measuring errors by scattered light, the background should be dark, e.g. a
matt black.
n
Power supply is via the electrical connection (12-pin M12 connecter, A-encoding, male).
n
The USB interface is only intended for data transfer. Power supply is always via the 12-pin
M12 connector.
