2.8.2 For Safe Laser Use (Class 1 or Class 2):
•
Do not stare at the laser.
•
Do not point the laser at a person’s eye.
•
Mount open laser beam paths either above or below eye level, where practical.
•
Terminate the beam emitted by the laser product at the end of its useful path.
CAUTION:
•
Never stare directly into the sensor lens.
•
Laser light can damage your eyes.
•
Avoid placing any mirror-like object in the beam. Never use a mirror as a retroreflective target.
2.9 Software Overview
Use the configuration software to establish operational settings for the SX and to display measurement and system
information produced by the SX. Communication between the PC and the SX is via an Ethernet network.
The scanner ships from the factory unconfigured. The unit must be configured for each application.
The configuration settings are created by a trained and Qualified Person who understands the SX instruction materials.
These settings are saved in an .xml configuration file and includes all the information that the SX requires for its intended
operation. An SX's configuration file includes the following data:
•
Administrative data, for example file name, application description
•
Safety-relevant data, such as the startup process
•
Safety Zone or Warning Zone configuration data, for example contours and limits
The menu progression in the program assists the user with the configuration process.
