Operation
Protect all cable ends before you turn on the power supply. So you avoid shorts.
Connect cable connections as required for the particular operating mode.
For starting up, a PC with RS232 or RS422 data interface and a terminal program such as the HyperTermi-
nal® are required.
Install the sensor as part of preparative actions in the designated working site, oriented onto the target
and keep it in a stable position. The target to be measured should preferentially have a homogeneous,
white surface.

The sensor provides a visible laser beam for greater convenience in alignment. This laser beam can easily
be turned on at the PC. Its visibility is conditional on the amount of ambient light present and on the type of
surface of the target to be measured.
