Monarch Instrument ROLS24-W - Manual (Page 2)

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:
The ROLS24-W Remote Optical Laser Sensor is capable of detecting a reflected pulse from a target consisting of T-5 Reflective Tape or high
contrast color differences (such as black and white) at distances up to 25 feet [7.6 m] from the rotating object and angles up to 60 degrees. For
most applications, a ½” [12 mm] square piece of Reflective Tape (T-5) should be applied to a clean area on the rotating object. At slow speeds
(<500 RPM) best results will be obtained by aiming the laser perpendicular (90°) to the t arget using a narrow piece of reflective tape – typically 0.2
inch (5 mm) wide.
The ROLS24-W should be mounted (using the supplied jam nuts and aluminum mounting bracket) and optically aligned to illuminate the on-target
indicator once per revolution. It is recommended that the optical sensor be placed at a slight angle (15 degrees) from perpendicular, so that the
sensor will receive only pulses from the reflective marker. Triggering from contrasting colors should be done perpendicular to the target. The
ROLS24-W should be at least 1 inch from the reflective target to avoid false triggering. The green LED On-Target Indicator will blink at the input
frequency rate when the ROLS24-W is properly aimed. NOTE: The green LED On-Target Indicator will blink on and off at slow speeds and
remain on steady at high speeds.
The ROLS24-W is supplied with an 8 foot [2.4 m] cable terminated with 4 tinned wires.
The ROLS24-W will work with all Monarch panel instruments that accept pulse inputs (e.g. ACT Series, DataChart 1250, DataChart 6000) and
vibration data collectors.
