DETERMINE MOUNTING LOCATION
LZR-WIDESCAN MOBILE APP
1. DETERMINE
MINIMUM
MOUNTING HEIGHT
Note: Absolute minimum sensor mounting height is 6'6".
Determine desired width and depth of the detection area.
WIDTH: ______ DEPTH: ______
Take whichever dimension is larger, and divide that by 1.2 (or multiply by
5
⁄
6
).
This is your minimum mounting height.
MIN. MOUNTING HEIGHT: ______
BEA, Inc. highly recommends downloading the LZR-WIDESCAN mobile app.
The LZR-WIDESCAN mobile app is an incredibly useful tool for mechanical installation verification and
setup/programming.
See LZR-WIDESCAN Mobile App Registration (75.0029) for information regarding app registration and
Bluetooth-pairing sensors.
2. CHECK FOR OBSTRUCTIONS (If you can't see the LZR-WIDESCAN, it can't see you!)
At or above the minimum mounting height, check for any obstructions such as door hardware, protective posts, signs, light fixtures,
and even walls. Interruptions such as these will lead to masking and flatness errors during the teach-in process.
If there are any obstructions, you can:
• move the mounting location higher until the obstructions are
no longer within the field of view of the sensor
• choose a mounting bracket for your application (see page 2)
• mount onto a protective post if one is available
3. DETERMINE MOUNTING POSITION
Options: center (recommended) and off-center (left or right, left preferred if it must be off-center)
Check to make sure that the height and location will allow complete coverage of the door/opening.
ex: door hardware
ex: protective post
ex: sectional overhead door
ex: use mounting bracket
ex: mount on post
