Calibration of the light grid:
Before the first power on after mounting the light bars to their final position put switch 3
(the array of tiny switches) up on both of the LVX-devices. Then Power on the System and
check that the green LED below the orange LED is lit. When interrupting a beam the green
light should go off. Check for both Axis X and Y. Then put down the switch 3 (to off). Now
the light grid is ready to use
