Cleaning the RangeFinder Windows
This procedure is recommended only if it is noticed that the environment is dirty
enough that deposits are appearing on the RangeFinder windows. The cleaning proce-
dure should be performed without removing the RangeFinder from the mounting struc-
ture.
1. Switch off the conveyor.
2. Switch off the camera system.
3. Review the exterior cleaning procedure before cleaning the three windows.
NOTE: Shut down the camera system before performing this maintenance
task. Do not stare into the camera’s window at the LED light. Avoid direct
eye exposure. The LED light level does not constitute a health hazard, how-
ever staring at the LED light for prolonged periods could result in eye dam-
age.
Use care when cleaning the RangeFinder to assure the windows are not
scratched or damaged in any way. Never apply cleaning solution directly to
the windows. Always apply the solution to a cloth, and then the cloth to the
windows.
