8.2.2
Cleaning the housing
¾
Use a soft cloth to free the housing of dust.
¾
If necessary, also clean the LEDs on the housing.
8.3
Cleaning further optical effective surfaces
Depending on the reading system equipment, additional external sensors with optical effec-
tive surfaces can be installed (e.g. photoelectric reflex switch for external reading pulsing).
Soiling of these sensors can cause incorrect switching behaviour.
¾
In order to prevent incorrect switching behaviour, remove soiling from the optical effec-
tive surfaces of the external sensors.
