6 Mounting
Mount distance sensor using suitable screws (M4). The screws are not
included in the scope of delivery.

6.1 Aligning the DL and DR models
For the DL and DR models, ensure that the reective tape is arranged so
that no direct surface reections reach the distance sensor.
Align the reective tape to the distance sensor in an angled position of
approx. 1° ... 3°. → See the gure below.
ca. 1°...3°

6.2 Alignment aid for infrared models
The infrared models DS35-B15821, DT35-B15851, DL35-B15852,
and DR35-B15822 have an alignment aid.
You can determine the exact position of the light spot with the aid of
a reective tape. Please take the typical light spot diameter of the distance
sensor into account. → See Page 54, Chapter 13.2.
1. Position object.
2. Attach a small reective tape to the center of the object for performing
alignment.
→ See the gure below.
For a simpler alignment, you can also rst use a reective strip in
the horizontal direction and then in the vertical direction.
3. Change the distance sensor to alignment mode. To do this, in run
mode, press and hold the set pushbutton for longer than 5 seconds.
4. Perform coarse alignment. To do this, align the distance sensor roughly
in the direction of the reective tape.
