Side Laser assembly
The side laser kit is P/N 13456-100, and can be added to existing payload structures.
Mounting
Side lasers need to be mounted on your AMR payload structure, one on each side. Because of
the wide potential for differently shaped and sized payloads, users must install the side laser
assembly at locations of their discretion.
When mounting the side lasers, care must be given to ensure that the mounting location and
angle is appropriate for proper functionality. Considerations to cable routing should be made
when positioning the assembly to prevent chafing, binding, or other cable strain. Clearance for
the laser guard provided with the kit should also be considered when choosing a mounting
location. It is recommended to mount the side lasers at a position that prevents detection of
any part of the AMR or the payload structure. Care must also be taken that the laser is ori-
ented properly, to ensure correct operation. The side lasers must be mounted in an orientation
so that their scanning planes are vertical and parallel to the AMR's axis. Do not aim the front
of the side laser towards the ceiling or floor to avoid false object detection.
NOTE:
In situations where mounting the side lasers in an unorthodox way in
unavoidable, blind spots can be configured in the scanning area to prevent false
object detection.
IMPORTANT:
Power OFF the AMR and complete appropriate Lock-out, Tag-out
procedures prior to installing or relocating side lasers.
