2.Operating Precautions
2.1 Basic Precautions
2.2 Usage and Storage Conditions
1) This product is destined for indoor use only. Do not install or store in outdoor environments.
2) This product is neither waterproof nor dustproof. Do not use or store in the following
3) Avoid exposing the product to shocks, vibration which could cause malfunctions.
4) Do not touch the front panel or the lens with your hands. It could cause reduced performance.
5) Do not use in environments with temperatures above 50 ℃(122°F), the unit may malfunction.
1) High reflectance target:
2) Intense ambient illumination:
3) Fast moving targets:
4) Distance from wall or floor:
5) Other precautions:
Do not place any cover on the sensor’s front panel.
Always allow for proper ventilation. If installed on a wall or a rack, please leave at least
10cm(3.94inch) between the product’s vent and closest wall and allow air to freely circulate
around it.
The 3D Image Sensor calculates the distance to a target by measuring the “Time-of-Flight” of
near-emitted infrared rays. Efficiency and reliability of the system may vary depending on actual
operating conditions. Always consider the following factors:
environments:
a) Places with high humidity level, high temperature, low temperature
b) Places exposed to corrosive gas, dust, gasoline, chemicals (including detergent) or
c) Places where the sensor would be exposed to condensation or freezing.
water vapor.
The range resolution may diminish depending on the target’s reflectance,
distance to the sensor or position.
The range resolution may diminish if a light source (such as sunlight, incandescent light or
considerably and may cause a saturation of the CCD element, resulting in distance
measuring problems or errors.
Besides, the measuring errors can also occur in the target’s surrounding area.
heater etc.,) whose emission spectrum, containing near-infrared frequencies
exceeding the specifications, exists inside the detection area of the sensor.
If the light source is too powerful, the CCD element in the sensor unit could saturate,
resulting in distance measuring errors or malfunctions.
Fast moving targets may produce distance measuring errors from miss calculation at the
outline of the target.
If wall or floor is close to the sensor (closer than 1.2 m (3.94ft)), it may produce distance
measuring errors from reflection ofemitted near-infrared rays.
For example if the target is close to the sensor (closer than 1.2m(3.94ft)) or in case
the sensor receives light reflected by a mirror, the amount of power received increases
