Should any cabling problems occur, contact your local Polytec representative.
CAUTION!
Damage of the instruments caused by short-circuit ! Always connect all components to
each other before plugging in the mains cables !
CAUTION!
Damage to connections caused by bent contact pins ! All connections must be easy to
plug in. If not, do not use any force to plug them in, but replace the defective connections
with new connections. Please contact your local Polytec representative.
NOTE!
The main cable (umbilical) has a plug with a fixed (straight) cable connection and a
connector with a rotatable (slightly angled) cable connection. We recommend connecting the
rotatable connector to the scanning head. Thus, you avoid bending or twisting the cable
when moving the scanning head.
