Caution
possible
lens
damage
Lens damage may occur if the measuring device contacts the surface
of the focusing lens. Always measure the working distance from the
bottom of the focusing lens mount.
Danger
serious
personal
injury
This product emits invisible infrared laser radiation in the 10.6 µm
CO
2
wavelength band. Since direct or diuse laser radiation can
inict severe corneal injuries, always wear eye protection when in
the same area as an exposed laser beam. Do not allow the laser beam
to contact a person. CO
2
lasers emit an invisible laser beam that is
capable of seriously burning human tissue.
Always be aware of the beam’s path and always use a beam block
while testing.
2
Use a ruler marked in millimeters to verify the proper Z-axis working distance from the bottom of
the focusing lens mount to the surface of the part. Refer back to Figure 3-5 in the Operation chapter.

If your mark le automation is set-up following WinMark Pro’s basic automation scheme, a mark is
lased each time a ‘start mark’ signal is applied to Flyer input IN0.
When connected to the WinMark computer via USB or Ethernet during the time that FH Flyer is
actively marking in stand-alone mode, click the Mark button to open the Launcher window and
view piece count/cycle time information.
Note: Launcher’s Preview window is blank because WinMark Pro is not generating microvector data
during the mark.
Note: When the head is busy marking, it may not have sucient time to initialize the Filestore view, so
les stored in the Filestore may not appear in the Flyer Files window.
