WARNING: Not To Be Used for Personnel Protection
Never use this device as a sensing device for personnel protection. Doing so could lead to serious injury or
death. This device does not include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow its use in
personnel safety applications. A sensor failure or malfunction can cause either an energized or de-energized
sensor output condition.
CAUTION: Electrostatic Discharge
Avoid the damage that electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause to the Sensor.
Always use a proven method for preventing electrostatic discharge when installing a lens or attaching a cable.
Features and Indicators
Note: Integrated display models: The touchscreen display has a plastic cover to protect the display. Remove this
cover when configuring the device. When the display is not in use, keep the display covered to protect it.
Installation Instructions
