  • Page 8: Mounting The Ranger

    Exactly how to mount the Ranger and the laser depends on a whole number of factors. For more information, see “Mounting Rangers and Lightings” in the Reference manual.

  • Page 9: Connecting The Ranger

    Warning! Never connect any signals while the Ranger unit is powered. Never connect a powered Ranger E/D Power-I/O terminal or powered I/O signals to a Ranger. If the laser trigger signal is used for lighting the laser, the laser may become activated as soon as the Ranger is powered on.
