    CONFIGURATION CONFIGURATION VL FLEX CONFIGURATOR APP In order to configurate the VL Flex 52 Industrial, one must set a A simple but detailed explanation of the configuration couple of parameters, such as display layout, the selected procedure can also be found on the app as an in-app- sensor and its calibration or the alarm threshold.
  • Page 12 CONFIGURATIONS SYSTEM CONFIGURATION 1. READ THE VL FLEX CONFIGURATION Launch the “VL Flex Industrial App” and read the actual configuration of the device by “tapping* the smartphone onto the front lens. The READ operation is mandatory before the WRITE operation is allowed. After the readout, the App will be set with the current VL Flex configuration.
