Warning!
Possible damage to sensor.
If the sensor is connected to a network by ODSCAD
or another application and hence is active, the sensor
should never just be switched off, or disconnected from
the power source. This could, under unfavorable circum-
stances, cause damage to the sensor.
Always deactivate the senor beforehand by closing the
software application. Only then disconnect the sensor
from power.
Connecting the AreaScan3D
1. Connect the Ethernet connection of the AreaScan3D to an existing
network or PC using an adequate Industrial Ethernet cable (see
„Connections and Indicators“ on page 14).
2. The I/O lines (Input/Output, one each) can be configured for various
functions via the software (e.g., the input as a trigger for starting a
measurement).
3. Connect the AreaScan3D to a suitable power supply.
