4 Assembly instructions
The adjustment of the laser measuring device in the vertical plain is carried out via
four studs
(A)
in the mounting plate. The adjustment in the horizontal plane can be
made by four hexagon bolts
(B)
. It has to be taken into account that the screw
diameter is approx. 1-2 mm smaller than the through bore of the mounting plate. Exact
dimensional properties are on the dimensional drawing in the rear part of the
document.

4.1 Aligning of the laser light spot to the reflector / foil inclination
The measuring device or reflector is attached to the moving object and the
reflector/sensor to the fixed remote station in such a way that the reflector always
remains within the visual field of the sensor. This can be done using the light spot of
the laser diode, which is still clearly visible on the reflecting foil even at long distance.
When aligning the laser measuring device, the user may need to take measures to
ensure that it can be mechanically adjusted.
The size of the reflecting foil must be such that the light spot cannot be displaced from
the reflector by vibrations. Since with an increasing distance the light spot gets larger
and larger, the edge areas of the foil also have to be avoided.
The device comes with a reflecting foil measuring 20 x 20 [cm], but other sizes can be
ordered on request.
Note
Reflecting foils by other manufacturers should not be used under any circumstances,
as all the information in the "Specifications" chapter refers to the foil already supplied
with the device.
