10. Installation of limit switch actuators
10.1 General
10.2 Installing limit switch actuators
Limit Switch Actuator Magnets are detected by the camera carriage as it travels back and forth on the plastic
track inside the rail enclosure. The two actuators are to be inserted into holes drilled in the plastic track at
opposite end of the system run–– one at the RF Adapter end, and one at the Terminator end. The limit switch
actuators tell the carriage at which end of the rail it is located.
Observe the placement and relative polarity of the two limit switch actuator magnets as shown in Figure 10-1.
Each actuator is to be located at the distance shown in the Figure from its respective bumper at each end of the
rail.

Refer to Figure 10-1, and locate and mark the center of the plastic track where the magnets are to
be installed. Be certain the mark is centered on the track.
Drill a 6.35 mm hole through the bottom surface of the plastic track where the marks have
been made.
Note that the North end of each magnet is painted black, and the South end is painted red. Being
careful to observe correct polarity, press a Limit Switch Actuator Magnet into each hole until the
bottom of the magnet is flush with the surface of the plastic track.
