This is an installation guide that introduces how to install and operate laser sensors.
This manual provides instructions for the initial setup and operation of WayCon Positionsmesstechnik GmbH's LAS series laser displacement sensors. It details safety precautions regarding Class 2 lasers and outlines best practices for physical mounting to ensure optimal linearity and accuracy, such as minimizing distance to the target and avoiding direct reflections from polished surfaces.
The document includes specific electrical connection diagrams for various models (LAS-TM, LAS-TB, LAS2-TM, LAS-T5, LAS-T, LAS-TL), specifying pin functions for power, signal, Teach-In, and alarm outputs. It also lists compatible accessory cables with their part numbers and color codes, along with a troubleshooting section to address common issues like lack of receiving signals or incorrect measuring values.
You should use clear water at about 30 °C, optionally adding a bit of mild soap.
The maximum accuracy is reached more than 15 minutes after power is turned on.
The alarm activates and the analog output signal drops to 4 mA or 0 V.
