3.2 First steps with the LRF 6042

We recommend using SAFRAN VECTRONIX Interface Kit to run a LRF 6042 with a PC.
Please refer to the Interface Kit Manual.

3.3 First steps without LRF Interface Kit

LRF modules can be connected to your PC without an Interface Kit provided by SAFRAN VECTRONIX AG.
In this case, we recommend reading this manual carefully before using the LRF module. Please be aware of
the risk of wrong pin-connection or destroying the module by applying overvoltage and other errors.
