Make sure to place the connection plugs for both the emitter and
receiver at the same end.
Although the GridScan/Pro is insensitive to direct sunlight,
avoid all unnecessary exposure if possible, most especially to
the receiver.
Avoid interference from blinking lights or infrared light sources
such as photo cells or other light curtains.
Do not install the GridScan/Pro in places where the emitter and
receiver edges are directly exposed to light sources such as FL
tubes or energy saving lamps.
TxRx
RxTx
R
The optical axis of the emitter (Tx) and the receiver edge (Rx) need to
be aligned towards each other to ensure the light curtain functions
reliably.
Reflective surfaces near to or parallel to the safeguarded area can
cause reflections and interfere with the GridScan/Pro's functions.
Keep a reasonable distance between the sensor edges and any
reflective surface.
A self calibration on each optical beam is implemented. At the
power- up the ideal emitting strength will be detected and used. To
reduce interruption caused of dust the system checks the emitting
power and adapt a new higher or lower strength if necessary.
CAUTION
Damage to the eye
Although the GridScan/Pro does not emit dangerous
amounts of infrared light, long exposure to intense infrared
light sources can result in damage to the eyes.
Never look directly into the active infrared emitter from
a close distance.
