Typical Two-Head Application Installations

You must mount the following components of the two-head dimensioning system before you
power it on:
 Universal Mounting brackets and DM3610 dimensioners
 DC3000 Controller
 CBX510 Connection Box
 Tachometer (if used)
 Photoelectric Sensor (if used)
NOTE:
A photoelectric sensor is typically used for singulated, non-touching
applications. The photoelectric sensor is an object-sensing trigger device. A
tachometer is used to measure conveyor speed. (Your installation may use other
devices.) A photoelectric sensor is not required for applications unless your system
requires a defined transmit point.
Two-Head Application
Typical two-head applications include two dimensioners positioned towards each side edge
of the conveyor and angled in toward the center line of the conveyor. The dimensioners are
offset along the X-axis to avoid cross interference of the laser lines.
