Connecting the CyScan Sensor
With the CyScan Sensor in position, the necessary electrical connections can be made.
!
Important:
The Console application must be closed whilst the Sensor is being
connected or disconnected.
To connect the CyScan Sensor:
1 Remove the protective dust caps from the Power, DP and Console sockets at the
Stern end of the CyScan Sensor. Do not remove the protective cap from the fourth
sensor connector.
The cable connectors and corresponding sockets are similarly labelled. Also, the
sockets and connectors are not interchangeable.
!
Warning: The scanning head will begin to spin
within 30 seconds after power is applied.
Ensure that it is not obstructed before attach-
ing the power connector. Keep all objects at
least 300mm away from the scanning head
in all directions.
2 Attach each of the three cable
connectors, in the order that
follows, to the appropriate
sockets on the CyScan
sensor:
1 First, attach the
Power connector.
2 Next, attach the DP
Feed and Console connectors.
For each connection:
• Match the orientation of the cable connector to the socket (position 1 on
the connector should be facing upwards) and push it into the socket until
resistance is detected.
• Next, push the outer ring of the cable connector until it locks in place.
3 Double check that each connection is secure.
Note: For pin-outs of all sensor connectors, refer to Appendix 1.
