9.8.2 Installation and set-up
General
The following points should be observed under all circumstances when
working with a power mast with a laser receiver mounted on it:
No obstacles (e.g. cables) may be located in front of the sensor;
Laser transmitters and laser receivers must always be "clearly
visible" to each other;
Ideally, install both so high that the rotating laser beam is able to
shine over the roof of the vehicle.
No reflective surfaces (e.g. windows, motor vehicle glazing) may be
located in the area of the laser beam;
To minimise the occurrence of reflections, it is advisable to cover
the laser transmitter except for the circular cut-out which is
actually required.
The laser transmitter's specified range must not be exceeded (note
environmental influences).
Working point
Commission a suitable laser transmitter
(wavelength between 600 and 1030 nm) at an
adequate height in accordance with its operating
instructions.
Position the power mast, on which the laser receiver is mounted,
vertically.
Turn the laser receiver to a position in which the LEDs of the positioning
aid are clearly visible from the remote control.
