Notes:

You can power the banner switch from the LaserSpeed power supply (pin 25) but you need to con-
nect pins 11 and 12 on the Laserspeed breakout together (shown in
diagram below ).

Use with a LaserSpeed 4500-4, 8500-4or 9500-4

The transmitter test input will deactivate the laser when connected to the power input (brown pin 1)
via a N/O test switch.

Receiver sensitivity and transmitter focus may need to be adjusted for optimal operation. If transmit-
ter is focused on surface of product, then receiver sensitivity will have less impact on results unless
the beam is very diffuse when it reaches the receiver (long sensor separation). If the transmitter
beam is focused on the receiver, the receiver sensitivity should be set to trigger when exactly half the
beam is on the product.
