Aligning the Fiber Optic Cable Head (A--B #60--2694)
The head assembly should be positioned and securely fastened so that
the lens is 27mm (1 1/16in) from the target to be sensed. When operating
the sensor in COLOR ONLY mode this tolerance should not exceed
+/-- 3mm (1/8in). For high precision c olor discrimination applications using
the COLOR PLUS INTENSITY mode, the tolerance can be no more than
+/-- 0.75mm (1/32in).

Wiring the Sensor
Models of ColorSight are available in one of three different connection
types as identified in the following table. Allen-Bradley recommends the
use of the 889 Series of cordsets and patchcords on the quick-disconnect
models. All external wiring should conform to the National Electric Code
and all applicable local codes.
