hazardous zones.
►
Startup must be performed only by trained technical
personnel.
►
Observe the safety instructions of the equipment or
system manufacturer.
CAUTION

If you look into the light beam emitted by the transmitter,
temporary blinding and irritation of the eyes is possible.
►
Do not look into the light beam!
1.
Check connections for tightness and correct polarity.
Replace damaged connections.
2.
Turn on the system.
3. Check measured values and adjustable parameters
and realign and adjust the sensor, if necessary.
Check for the correct values, especially after
replacing the sensor or after repair by the
