NOTE: If the device used to trigger or remote teach the iVu BCR is a sinking device, these are the
options regarding the use of a pull-up resistor:
Option 1: Put a pull-up resistor, rated approximately 1k ohm, between the sensor's positive (+)
voltage and the sensor's input as shown below.

1.1.3 Installing and Connecting the Sensor
The iVu BCR sensor requires a bracket for mounting. Three brackets are available from Banner. The brackets allow the
sensor to be mounted either perpendicular to the part or at an adjustable angle.
