Installing the OMP40-2 with a OMM-2C receiver with OSI or OSI-D
interface
Operating envelopes
When used with a OMM-2C receiver with OSI or OSI-D interface, the OMP40-2 uses modulated
transmission.
Natural reflective surfaces within the machine may increase the signal transmission range.
For best system performance, ensure that the OMM-2C receiver with OSI or OSI-D interface is
mounted in a position which is not directly in front of a light source.
Coolant and swarf residue accumulating on the probe, interface or receiver windows will have a
detrimental effect on transmission performance. Wipe clean as often as is necessary to maintain
unrestricted transmission.
WARNING: Ensure the machine tool is in a safe condition and power is removed before removing
covers. Only qualied persons should adjust switches.
CAUTION: If two systems are operating in close proximity to each other, take care to ensure that the
signals transmitted from the OMP40-2 on one machine are not received by the receiver on the other
machine, and vice versa. When this is the case, it is recommended that the OMP40-2 ultra low power
setting is selected.
