Grounding - Master 400/800/1200/2400
The mounting brackets of all Masters have been designed to provide adequate grounding through the
use of star washers. Always check grounding with a multi-meter by ensuring electrical continuity
between the mounting frame and RJ45 connectors on the front.
The frame or electrical cabinet that the Master is mounted to must be connected to earth
ground.
Mounting
Sensors should be mounted using four or six (depending on the model)M5 x 0.8 pitch screws of suitable
length. The recommended thread engagement into the housing is 8 - 10 mm. Proper care should be
taken in order to ensure that the internal threads are not damaged from cross-threading or improper
insertion of screws.
With the exception of Gocator 2880, sensors should not be installed near objects that might occlude a
camera's view of the laser. (Gocator 2880 is specifically designed to compensate for occlusions.)
Sensors should not be installed near surfaces that might create unanticipated laser reflections.
