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.
