Mounting the device
1.
Mount the LiDAR sensor using the designated fixing holes,
NOTICE
Risk of damaging the device!
the device will be damaged if the tightening torque of the mounting screws is too
high or if the maximum screw-in depth of the blind hole threads is exceeded.
b
Observe maximum tightening torque.
b
Use suitable mounting screws for the blind hole threads of the device and
observe the maximum screw-in depth.
2.
Make the electrical connection. Attach and tighten a voltage-free cable,
necting the device electrically", page 25
3.
Switch on the supply voltage.
✓
The red operation LED flashes.
4.
Align the vertical center line of the field of view of the device with the center of the
area to be monitored. The marking (90° axis) on the upper side of the optics cover
serves as a alignment aid. View live measurement data on the PC for exact align‐
ment (
) and use alignment aid or scan finder (
)
5.
Push teach-in pushbutton to teach in the background. When doing so, make sure
that there is no one in the measuring range.

Mutual interference
NOTE
Optical sensors and other IR light sources can influence the measurement and detec‐
tion capabilities of the device.
The device has been designed to minimize the probability of mutual interference with
devices of the same type. To rule out even the slightest effects on the measurement
accuracy, the devices should be arranged such the laser beams are not received by
another device.
