Disconnecting the CyScan Sensor
!
Important:
The system running the CyScan Console application MUST be
switched OFF before the CyScan sensor is disconnected.
!
Important:
Do not disconnect the sensor if the scanning head is still spinning.
To disconnect the CyScan Sensor:
1 Begin by disconnecting the DP Feed and Console connectors.
For each connection:
• Pull the outer ring of the cable connector until it disengages from the socket.
• Next, gently pull the cable connector from the socket.
2 Now disconnect the Input Power connector.

IMPORTANT:
Replace the protective dust caps onto the three sockets on the
CyScan Sensor and also on the three cable connectors.
Un-mounting the CyScan Sensor
!
Warning:
The CyScan Sensor weighs approximately 30kg. Two people, using the
integral handles on either side, should perform all lifting and carrying of the unit.
To un-mount the CyScan Sensor:
1 Locking pin installation:
a Locate the four anodised locking pins that
were supplied with the CyScan sensor.
b Rotate the larger barrel of each locking pin
clockwise so that they become short
enough to be inserted between the base
plate and the middle body of the sensor.
c
Ensure that the scanner head is parallel with
the Sensor baseplate. Locate the four locking pin holes in the sensor base
plate holes which are adjacent to each of the four larger mounting holes.
d For each of the four locking pins, insert the point of the thinner barrel into
the locking pin hole of the base plate. Then, push the larger barrel towards
the white bellows and gently rotate the larger barrel anti-clockwise so that
the pin extends.
Important:
Ensure that the white bellows are not damaged by the locking
pin rotation.
e Continue rotating the larger barrel and guide the point of the locking pin
into the corresponding hole in the underside of the sensor body (the hole
will be directly above the one on the base plate).
f
Do not tighten fully until all four locking pins are in place, and then tighten
them evenly by hand so that the sensor body is fixed in a level position.
IMPORTANT: Do not use tools to tighten the locking pins.
2 Using a 13mm socket and ratchet, remove the four
mounting bolts.
3 With the assistance of another person, use the two
lifting handles to lift the sensor away from the mount-
ing plate.
4 If necessary, place the sensor in its storage case
(covered next).
