4.2 Connecting the LDS 6, optics housing CD 6
Connecting the transmitter optics housing
Install the cables, hybrid and sensor connection cable, at the transmitter optics housing
according to the 󹪝gure below. Cables are 󹪝xed in the optics housing with gaskets. Always use
lubricant on the gaskets before installing, otherwise these will be very di󹪟cult to remove later.
Multi-mode 󹪝ber (SMA connector) and the power supply are just connected straight through to
the receiver.
Note
During installation make sure that the ambient temperature is always within the range speci󹪝ed
in sectionHybrid and sensor connection cables (Page61).
Note
Always protect the single-mode 󹪝ber (E2000 connector) from dust. Do not remove the plastic
vial until the cable is 󹪝rmly fastened in the optics housing.
