1. Note the orientation of the ReadHead on the Scale. Be sure the arrow
on the ReadHead points towards the "BLACK END OF SCALE". This
orientation is critical for proper operation. Be sure the mounting location
for the ReadHead and Scale will allow this orientation. Take care when
sliding the ReadHead onto the Scale so the brass "fingers" inside the
ReadHead do not get damaged. (A slight "wiggling" motion when
installing the ReadHead will simplify the process.)
2. Determine
Recommended Model 250 applications usually have the Scale held
stationary while the ReadHead is moved along the Scale. However, the
ProScale will read correctly if the ReadHead is moved along the Scale or
if the Scale is moved through the ReadHead.
3. When installing the Model 250, you should use the
Guide Clip
(see figures on next page). Mount the Scale using the
included 8-32 screw (or M4)
heads do not protrude above the surface of the
extrusion. Check that the Scale is properly aligned as
the ReadHead is moved over its length (the Guide
Clip will compensate for slight misalignment in one
direction). Adjust Scale alignment if necessary. For
accurate measurements, the guide clip must be
mounted perpendicular to the direction of travel of the ReadHead. The
guide clip should exert some pressure over the full range of travel on the
ReadHead so the two move as a single unit.

4. The Display may be mounted in a location which allows for easy viewing
by the operator. The location of all parts should also safeguard the cable
from possible damage.
electrical wiring and motors. Plug the ReadHead into the Display. See

Note:
If any other mounting method is used, observe the following:
•
Do not drill through the green portion of the Scale at any point over
which the ReadHead will travel.
•
Do not mount the Scale so the mounting hardware interferes with the
movement of the ReadHead.
