IR Head BracketIR HEAD BRACKETTo facilitate reading and programming multiple encoders, the IR head bracket is recommended The bracket is easy to attachand removeAttaching the bracket to an encoder1 Open the lid of the encoder2 With the bracket guide pointing to the encoder lid hinge, slide the bracket onto the encoder (Figure 2) so the guidefits on both sides of the hingePush gently to make sure the bracket guide is completely seated against the encoder lid hinge, and you can see theIR port through bracket opening as shown in Figure 2Figure 1: Slide bracket onto encoder Figure 2: Bracket attached to encoder - top view3 Place the optical head of the IR cable in the bracket,with the nubs on the back seated in the slots of thebracket See Figure 3 This placement facilitates correctalignment between the IR head and the encoderIR portThe encoder is ready for programmingFigure 3: Head of IR cable insertedRemoving the bracket from an encoderWhen you are finished programming an encoder, remove the bracketHold the encoder with one hand and pull the bracket gently with the other hand, straight off the encoder The bracket shouldcome off will little resistancePage 6 May 2018ENC-PM-02040-EN-03
