5 Installation 
5.1 Mounting the Sensor 
After all preparations are complete according to section 4 Sensor Location, page 13 ff., you can install 
the sensor. 
How and where you anchor the optical head and electronics enclosure depends on the type of surface 
and the type of bracket you are using. You can mount the optical head through a hole, on a bracket of 
your own design, or on the available bracket accessory. 
You  may  need  to  "snake"  the  fiber  optic  cable  through  and  around  any  obstacles,  such  as  beams, 
walls, support columns, etc., or, if your installation requires, through conduit, before attaching the end 
to  the  electronics  enclosure.  (Do  not  attach  until  you  aim  the  optical  head.)  The  cable  can  be 
disconnected  from  the  electronics  box  for  aiming  or  threading  through  conduit  during  installation. 
The cable is keyed and can only be inserted one way into the electronics enclosure.
