Aligning the distance sensor and reflector with each other
Align the distance sensor using the alignment bracket according to the following figures
and proceed as follows.
1.
Bring the distance sensor and reflector close together.
2.
Align the distance sensor so that the light spot hits the center of the reflector.
3.
Increase the distance between the distance sensor and reflector. The light spot
must continuously hit the center of the reflector. If necessary, adjust the alignment
using the adjustment screws of the alignment bracket
4.
Check the attenuation. The value for the attenuation must not exceed certain
values,
see "Received signal level", page 28
NOTE
Do not change the factory setting of the adjustment screws by more than ± 3 mm. This
results in a spring travel of 41.5 ± 3 mm. This results in a maximum adjustment angle
of ± 2° in the X- and ± 3.5° in the Y-direction.
