10.2.2 Avoiding interference echoes
A0031813
Metal deflector plates, installed at an angle to scatter the radar signals, help prevent
interference echoes.
10.2.3 Vertical alignment of antenna axis
Align the antenna so that it is perpendicular to the product surface.
The maximum reach of the antenna can be reduced, or additional interference signals
can occur, if the antenna is not installed perpendicular to the product.
10.2.4 Radial alignment of the antenna
Based on the directional characteristic, radial alignment of the antenna is not necessary.
10.2.5 Optimization options
Mapping
Measurement can be optimized by electronically suppressing interference echoes.
See the Confirm distance parameter.
