This guide is designed to help you set up and install the L-GAGE
®
LE Laser Gauging Sensor. For complete information on
programming, performance, troubleshooting, dimensions, and accessories, please refer to the Instruction Manual at
. Search for p/n 175094 to view the manual. Use of this document assumes familiarity with
pertinent industry standards and practices.
WARNING: Not To Be Used for Personnel Protection
Never use this device as a sensing device for personnel protection. Doing so could lead to
serious injury or death. This device does not include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary
to allow its use in personnel safety applications. A sensor failure or malfunction can cause either an
energized or de-energized sensor output condition.

Analog Output LED Indicator
Solid Amber = Displayed distance is within the taught analog
output window
Off = Displayed distance is outside the taught analog output
window
Power LED Indicator
Solid Green = Normal operation, power On and laser On
Flashing Green (1 Hz) = Power On and laser Off (laser enable
mode)
Discrete Output LED Indicator
Solid Amber = Discrete Output is On
Off = Discrete Output is Off
Laser Description and Safety Information
CAUTION: Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified
herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure. Do not attempt to disassemble this sensor for
repair. A defective unit must be returned to the manufacturer.
Class 2 Laser Models
CAUTION: Never stare directly into the sensor lens. Laser light can damage your eyes. Avoid
placing any mirror-like object in the beam. Never use a mirror as a retroreflective target.
For Safe Laser Use - Class 2 Lasers
•
Do not stare at the laser.
•
Do not point the laser at a person’s eye.
•
Mount open laser beam paths either above or below eye level, where practical.
•
Terminate the beam emitted by the laser product at the end of its useful path.
