Important: Administrative rights are required to install the Banner Radar Configuration software.

  1. Download the latest version of the software from www.bannerengineering.com/us/en/products/sensors/software/radarconfiguration.html.
  2. Navigate to and open the downloaded file.
  3. Click Install to begin the installation process.
  4. Depending on your system settings, a popup window may appear prompting to allow Banner Radar Configuration to make changes to your computer. Click Yes.
  5. Click Close to exit the installer.
Mount the Device Using the Threaded Barrel
  1. If your device came with a lock washer, place the lock washer on the barrel of the device.

  2. Insert the barrel of the device though a hole or a bracket.
    • If desired and available, insert the device through an appropriately sized hole in the machine or equipment at the desired location.
    • If a bracket is needed, insert the device into the bracket.

  3. Thread the mounting nut onto the barrel of the device, finger tight.

  4. If using a bracket, mount the device and the bracket to the machine or equipment at the desired location. Do not tighten the mounting screws at this time.

  5. Check the device alignment, aiming it near parallel to, or down towards, the ground.
    If aiming at a target, alignment and signal strength can be checked via the red Signal Strength LED or the Banner Radar Configuration Software.

  6. Tighten the nut.

  7. If using a bracket, tighten the mounting screws to secure the device and the bracket in the aligned position.
