SPS CONFIGURATIONS
All SPS models consist of the SPS-IM Interface Module, an input sensor,
and a means of accessing external power. The components of each
configuration are shown below.

Laser Sensor be placed at a slight angle (approximately 15 degrees)
from perpendicular, so that the Laser Sensor will detect only the reflected
pulses from the target. The Laser Sensor should be at least 1 inch [25
mm] and may be up to 50 feet [15 meters] from the reflective tape
target, provided that the “Sensitivity” adjustment is set properly (see
below). The Laser Sensor is equipped with a green LED On-Target
Indicator which will blink at the input frequency when properly aimed
and adjusted for “Sensitivity”.
CAUTION:
Avoid direct eye exposure to the laser beam.
There is a mechanical sliding shutter on the Laser Sensor that can be
used to block the laser light for safety purposes.
NOTE: Open the shutter completely when using the Laser Sensor
and close the shutter when it is not in use.
Indicators
There are three light emitting diodes (LED’s) on the Laser Sensor
which provide the following indications:
LASER ON: Green LED. When the Sensor is first powered up,
there is a delay of a few seconds before the laser
beam comes on. During this period, the “LASER
ON” LED blinks. When the Laser comes on, the
LED remains lit.
SET UP:
Red LED. Factory use only.
TARGET:
Green LED. Indicates that the Laser Sensor is
receiving a reflected signal back from the target.
The intensity of this LED should be maximized
during target alignment while adjusting
the “Sensitivity” knob very slowly.
