Optical alignment

Emitter and receiver must be parallel and at the same
height.
-
Check the units are parallel in the plane of the
beams.
The alignment tolerance between emitter and receiver
is ±2°.
-
Check the units are parallel in the plane
perpendicular to the beams.
E
- Check the relative height.
This adjustment is easily accomplished by sliding in
the "T" grooves of the mountings.
The tolerance on relative heights is ±10 cm for a
scanning distance of 10 m, and decreases in respect
with E/R distance.

-
Check the angular alignment.
The angular position tolerance of emitter and receiver
is ≤ ± 2°.
For small scanning distances distances, the
alignment of the units can be carried out very
rapidly and simply using a rule:
E
Rule
For long distances the alignment can be achieved
using a bubble rule.
Reminder:
Little irregular alignment results in flickering of
signal R1 with the signal R3 on.
Excessively irregular alignment results in flickering
of signal R1 and in turning off the signal R3 and
set off the barrier outputs.
When an occultation occurs, R1 may flicker (and
R2 turns on); this means that the receiver is still
scanning, but with a missing beam due to
occultation. If the occultation is made close to a
receiver lens, R1 lights on, withoutflickering, as
the receiver is no longer able to scan. Anyway, in
both cases, output relays will be switched off, as
there are missing beams.
