Installation
Note!
To avoid polishing the surface, do not apply strong pressure when cleaning. A shiny surface of
the colored or code tapes leads to impairment in detection by the read head.
Basics
The read head detects a colored tape on a floor as a lane. The width of the colored tape must
be between 10 mm and 40 mm; the default width is 18 mm. The zero point is located in the
center of the colored tape. You can use 3 defined colors. See the section entitled "Colored
tape"
The sensor always moves in the X direction. In the sensor's field of view, X indicates an upward
movement.
