1. The
language
is factory set to English if this is okay press
enter
to continue
to commissioning or arrow
up
to return to the home screen. To
change
the language use the
right
and
left
keys to change to your preferred language and
press
enter
to confirm your choice – you will then continue in the language of your
choice. Languages currently available are: English, Dutch, Italian, French, Spanish,
Czechoslovakian and German.
2. Press
enter
to go into
commissioning
.
Pressing
right
or
left
changes between normal and
fast
. It is recommended in most
cases to use fast mode (in normal mode the system uses 3.5mA, in fast mode it uses
17mA) - if you are commissioning more than one beam at a time and the system
cannot support the extra draw it may be necessary to use normal mode to prevent
excessive current draw. Fast mode allows x4 times faster motor response and it may
be quicker to commission each beam in turn. Once commissioning is complete the
ZetaBeam will automatically revert to normal low power mode - (3.5mA).
Press
enter
to start pre-alignment. In pre-alignment you should
ALWAYS
COVER THE
REFLECTOR
. Starting at 10% power and 10% receiver sensitivity,
the receiver sensitivity will automatically increase to a maximum of 100% then the
output power will increase. These settings will automatically stop when a received
signal strength reaches 6% - this received signal is the returned strength of the output
signal without a reflector (if no return signal is received the beam will reach full
power and the screen will say
Pre-Align - complete
). If you don’t receive high enough
output power and receiver sensitivity readings this will usually be because you are
receiving a reflection from an object nearby - use the
left
,
right
,
up
and
down
keys
to avoid the obstruction. When happy with your readings press
enter
and confirm by
pressing the
right
button, this will take you to manual alignment - if you wish to abort
Pre-Align
press the
left
button.
Press
enter
to go into manual alignment -
NOW THE REFLECTOR CAN BE
PLACED
OR THE COVER CAN BE REMOVED
. You should see a large jump in
signal strength. If no jump is seen use the
X
and
Y
keys to locate the reflector (the
better the single strength the better the beam is aligned) try to achieve a figure of
around 100% or over for optimum
auto alignment
times - you must achieve a signal
strength over 40% to start
auto alignment
. Press
enter
to okay this and go to
auto
alignment
.
Press
enter
to start auto-alignment. The beam will calibrate its power and
search for
the edges of the reflector – adjusting its power as it aligns itself
onto the reflector. Once it has found all four edges twice it will then centre itself
on the middle of the reflector and the screen will say
align complete
. Press
enter
to
return to the
home screen
. If you see
align aborted
this means something has crossed
the beam path of the received signal and the signal has dropped out. Press
back
/
left
to return to
auto alignment
.
