2. Connect the y-axis encoder cable to the encoder connector (see Figure 2-5 on
page 25).
3. Use the cable management tabs and the ergonomic cover to conceal any excessive
cable.
When reinstalling the ergonomic cover, take care to not pinch the encoder cables.
2.2 ChainSCANNER Setup
Refer to Table 10 on page 72 (inches) or Table 11 on page 74 (centimeters) to determine
the correct combination of short and long links for a given pipe outside diameter, or
for a given pipe circumference.
To add or remove a link on the ChainSCANNER
1. Measure the outside diameter or the circumference of the pipe to be inspected.
2. Use Table 10 on page 72 (inches) or Table 11 on page 74 (centimeters) to find the
correct link combination.
On bigger pipes, long links are required at the front and the rear of the main module.
Failure to do so will result in insufficient pressure between the wheel and the pipe,
which will generate encoder count lost and reduce stability.
Handles are supplied with the ChainSCANNER. Olympus recommends installing
them at intervals along the chain in order to help rotate the scanner around the pipe.
A short link with dovetails is required to mount a handle.
3. Determine the position of the buckle assembly along the pipe circumference
according to the following:
