LS-R-4.8 1.8.2 Description Sensitivity and gain factor (Laser Sensor Gain) The gain factor set depends on the workpiece to be measured (material, surface condition). This setting increases the sensitivity of the laser scanner during data acquisition. Depending on the measuring result, it may be useful to adjust the gain factor in the measuring software. INFORMATION The gain factor setting significantly affects the quality of the recorded measuring data.

LS-R-4.8 2.3.2 Operation Inserting/Replacing the Battery NOTICE Risk of damage to the equipment! • • • 1. Clean and dry the laser scanner well before opening! Do NOT use compressed air to clean the laser scanner! Replace/recharge empty batteries immediately! Carefully slide the battery compartment sleeve down (1./Fig. 8). NOTICE Risk of damage to the equipment! The laser scanner LS-R-4.8 is protected against wrong polarity (short circuit protection).
Operation 2.3.3 LS-R-4.8 Pairing the scanner with a receiver INFORMATION In order to pair the laser scanner with a radio-wave receiver type RC-R-100, the radio-wave receiver must be in pairing mode (see operating instructions RC-R-100). The required pairing information is entered in the associated PC software and then transmitted with the programming clip to the infrared interface of the LS-R-4.8 laser scanner. Afterwards, the pairing process is started. 1.
LS-R-4.8 Operation 7. Mount the programming clip on the laser scanner so that the infrared interface on the programming clip is aligned with the infrared interface inside the battery compartment of the LS-R-4.8 laser scanner. 8. Push the battery compartment sleeve up until it closes on the programming clip.

Operation 2.3.4 LS-R-4.8 Warming up the laser scanner INFORMATION The system accuracy is considered stable after 60 minutes of use (“warm-up” time). The scanner maximum location error is 30 µm after stabilization. The scanner actual location error is written in the "Inspection Report" delivered with the Scanner. For reference, the subsequent table shows sample data of the difference in accuracy between the actual used time and the stabilized accuracy, at an environment temperature of 23°C.
LS-R-4.8 2.4 Operation Aligning the scanner for measuring NOTICE Risk of incorrect measuring data! The sensor’s insensitivity to extraneous light is 5000 lx. This permits measuring under diffused, artificial light. If the sensor is pointed directly at an artificial light source during operation or exposed to direct sunlight, the direct incidence of light can lead to the recording of incorrect measuring data. • • Do not point the sensor directly at light sources during operation.
Operation 2.4.2 LS-R-4.8 Measuring edges and special characteristics INFORMATION For the exact measuring of edges and special characteristics, the sensor must be aligned across the areas to be measured. If the sensor is aligned parallel to such workpiece geometries, there is a risk of inaccurate measurements.
LS-R-4.8 2.4.3 Operation Interrupting the beam path INFORMATION Depending on the profile of the object to be measured, the beam may be blocked and the beam path may be interrupted, for example, due to object edges (see Fig. 13). • For optimal measuring results, always align the sensor with the profile to avoid interruptions to the beam path as far as possible. Interrupting the beam reflection 2.4.
Operation 2.4.5 LS-R-4.8 Secondary reflections INFORMATION Depending on the profile and surface condition of the workpiece to be measured, especially in the case of shiny or convex surfaces, secondary reflections can occur. This may mean that the measuring results are falsified. • To avoid secondary reflections, align the sensor according to Fig. 15 .

Operation 2.6 LS-R-4.8 Troubleshooting INFORMATION In addition to the information in this chapter, further troubleshooting options and frequently asked questions about the operation of the laser scanner can be found at www.HxGN.biz/FAQ-Laserscanning. 2.6.1 Problems with data quality Error Possible cause Solution Local noisy data in the point cloud. Dust or dirt on the workpiece amplifies the laser signal. Clean the workpiece. Local modification of the surface properties of the workpiece.
LS-R-4.8 2.7 Operation Maintenance and Cleaning 2.7.1 Cleaning the optical windows of the laser scanner NOTICE Risk of measuring errors! Damage to the optical windows affects the measuring accuracy of the laser scanner. • Contact the service department at m&h Inprocess Messtechnik GmbH. NOTICE Risk of measuring errors! Grease and dirt deposits on the optical windows reduces the measuring accuracy of the sensor.
Operation 2.7.2 LS-R-4.8 Cleaning the calibration sphere NOTICE Risk of incorrect calibration data caused by contamination Contamination on the calibration sphere may reduce the data quality. • • • Do not touch the calibration sphere. If contamination is present, clean the calibration sphere before calibration. Do not use solvents or cleaners; they may damage the calibration sphere.
LS-R-4.8 Operation Removing grease deposits NOTICE Possible damage to the calibration sphere when cleaning The use of solvents or cleaners is not recommended, as they may damage the calibration sphere. Light grease deposits can be removed with extreme care using a clean, soft, lint-free micro-fibre cloth and isopropyl alcohol. However, any such cleaning is performed entirely at own risk. 1. Moisten a micro-fibre cloth with isopropyl alcohol. 2. Hold the calibration sphere by the shaft with one hand.
