3.3.2.2.2 Flex Mount
The reference surface is teached with Flex Mount. This enables the sensor to correctly calculate the height of
objects, taking account of its mounting angle and the distance to the reference surface. This function is
recommended to ensure the correct calculation of the object height in relation to the reference surface.
With Flex Mount, the inclination angle and the distance from the reference surface are automatically detected
and saved in the sensor memory so the coordinate system can be rotated correctly. With respect to teaching,
it is important that the teached-in surface is even and covers as much of the entire measuring range of the
sensor as possible.
Flex Mount is used if…
-
a standard installation (right angle to the reference surface or the object) is not present
-
the reference surface is closer to the sensor than the end of the measuring range Sde
-
the reference surface is to be automatically teached and/or shifted in height
-
the background is to be suppressed
Effects
-
The coordinate system is rotated
-
The reference surface is teached
; the original sensor reference point is no
longer valid
-
Objects below the reference surface are ignored
-
The axes are no longer referred to as X and Z, but as M and K
-
The field of view is reset to the maximum field of view
