CAUTION
From a safety perspective, class 2 laser products are not inherently safe for the eyes.
Precautions:
1) Avoid staring into the beam or viewing it through optical instruments.
2) Avoid pointing the beam at other people or at animals.
The AT930/AT960 is classified as a laser class 2 system although the individual laser
sources are classified as laser class 1. The possibility of simultaneous emission of the
individual laser sources results in an overall classification as laser class 2.

Step Description
1. Screw the Quick Release onto the Tracker Stand and tighten it using the
hinged hook wrench.
2.
Ensure that the locking lever of the Quick Release is in unlocked position.
Set the AT930/AT960 instrument onto the Quick Release.
3. Close the locking lever to lock the Absolute Tracker on the Quick Release.
Do not remove the locking lever of the Quick Release while the
sensor is attached to the Quick Release.
4. Attach the AT Controller to the Universal Stand Fixture.
This advice refers to the following instructions about connecting cables:
When plugging in cables, ensure that the controller is secured against slipping
out of the Universal Stand Fixture!
5. Connect the external temperature sensor to the port of the AT Controller,
that is labelled with “Air”. This ensures that you achieve the highest possible
measurement accuracy.
6. Connect one end of the sensor cable to the AT Controller.
7. Connect the other end of the sensor cable to the AT930/AT960 instrument.
8. Connect a LAN cable (if applicable).

AT930/AT960, Setup
Refer to the relevant application manual for further details on carrying out
measurements.
WARNING
Mounting the sensor on unstable or uneven ground may cause the sensor to tip over
or cause unreliable measurement results.
Precautions:
Ensure the ground is stable and even. Do not place the sensor over cracks in the
floor.
9. Connect the AC power supply to the AT Controller and to a grounded mains
socket outlet.
10. To turn on the Absolute Tracker, press the power switch on the frontpanel
of the AT Controller.
11. The system automatically detects when the start-up cycle has finished. The
system will initialise automatically once the start-up cycle has finished.
12. Start the application.
