Gocator Line Profile Sensors: User Manual
Getting Started • 27
Calibration Targets
Targets are used for alignment and calibrating encoder systems.
Disks are typically used with systems containing a single sensor and can be ordered from LMI
Technologies. When choosing a disk for your application, select the largest disk that fits entirely within
the required field of view. See Accessories on page 643 for disk part numbers.
For dual- and multi-sensor systems, bars are required to match the length of the system by following the
guidelines illustrated below. (LMI Technologies does not manufacture or sell bars.)
See Aligning Sensors on page 126 for more information on alignment.
System Overview
Gocator sensors can be installed and used in a variety of scenarios. Sensors can be connected as
standalone devices, dual-sensor systems, or multi-sensor systems.
Standalone System
Standalone systems are typically used when only a single Gocator sensorscanner is required. The
sensorscanner can be connected to a computer's Ethernet port for setup and can also be connected to
devices such as encoders, photocells, or PLCs.
