2. Z-Height:
If Z-Height is not adjustable, firmly place sensor against benching edge.
If Z-Height is adjustable, go to Step 5.
3. Use two M1.6 or 0-80 screws to attach the sensor and tighten per torque specification:
0.34Nm
(3 inch-lbs.) maximum.
4. Connect sensor to customer’s electronics or to the optional Connector and Calibration
Board.
Result
: Sensor installation is complete for benching install. Alignment not required with
benching installation. If sensor has an LSB index, go to
Section 5.1.5 LSB Index
Calibration.
5. If Z-Height is adjustable:
Use the Z-Height Shim Spacer (part of optional development kit) to set the proper gap
between the sensor’s riser and the top of the scale (0.493 mm). Refer to the Optira Interface
Drawing for details.
6. Insert the Z-Height Shim Spacer between the sensor’s riser and the top of the scale.
7. Fully tighten the two M1.6 or 0-80 screws to attach the sensor. Tighten screws per torque
specification: 0.34Nm (3 inch-lbs.) maximum. Adjust the Z-Height. The shim should move
with minimal friction between the riser and the scale. Remove shim.
8. Connect sensor to customer’s electronics or to the optional Connector and Calibration
Board.
Result
: Sensor installation is complete for adjustable Z-Height install.
Note
: If sensor was not installed using benching, then go to
