monitor’s connectors. The
GPS
head uses a 7-pin DIN connector. Be
sure to allow space for mounting the GPS laser switch box.
If you are using a conduit adapter and conduit for the wiring, install
the conduit adapter on the sensor end of the conduit, then run the
wire through it. You might need to position and tighten the
mounting bracket in place after attaching the DIN connector to the
sensing head and screwing the sensing head into the conduit adapter.
Note that a mounting bracket may not be necessary if using rigid
conduit.

Electrical Installation
For proper operation, make sure all wiring is installed correctly and
the connections are tight. If strain relief is required, use standard
conduit fittings. For proper operation, this cable must be free of
splices and connected to the monitor’s terminals exactly as indicated
below.
For more information on how to wire the sensor you can find in
section 3.3
Electrical Installation
, page 11.

Aiming the Sensing Head
All sensing heads that can be attached to the GP monitor are aimed
using the same technique, which is to peak the sensor to its
maximum signal. (The GPS has laser aiming.) To do this, all
connections must be secure and power applied to the monitor. If a
temperature does not display, press the
button until it does.
To aim the sensor, complete the following:
1.
Slightly loosen the mounting bracket’s nuts.
2.
Point the sensor toward the target.
3.
Move it around until the target’s temperature displays on the
monitor.
4.
Secure the mounting bracket.
