Alignment Procedure
To align a safety light screen using the LAT-1:
1. Mount all sensors and corner mirrors per the instructions in
the appropriate manual. Leave the hardware slightly loose to
allow for positioning adjustment.
2. Assemble the appropriate clip to the LAT-1; snap it onto the
light screen emitter or receiver, and slide it to one end of
the sensor. (HINT: Check the receiver for plumb first, before
attaching the LAT-1 to the emitter for alignment.) Attach a
retroreflective target to the corresponding end of the opposite
sensor.
3. If the sensors are mounted vertically, check the circular
bubble level for plumb orientation.
4. Standing behind the Alignment Tool, view the retroreflective
target from behind the sensor (see Figure 2). Adjust either or
both sensors and/or the corner mirrors as needed to place the
laser image at the desired spot on the opposite sensor.
5. Move the Alignment Tool and the retroreflective target to the
opposite ends of the sensors and repeat step 4.
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until the image falls at the desired
spot at both the top and bottom of the opposite sensor; then
tighten all mounting hardware.
