WIRING
CAUTION: Do not apply power to the unit until all secondary
wiring is complete, and dip-switches have been set.
The CM-325 can be powered from 12 or 24 volts, AC or DC.
Connect the two Red wires, (which are non-polarity sensitive) to
the power source.
The output is a form C relay. N.O is Blue, N.C. is Violet, and
Common is Green. Selecting the correct output is also
dependant on the operating mode chosen. (See Section 4)
Most applications will utilize the N.O. and Common terminals.

Switch 3 – LED On/LED Off
This switch disables the LED, should this feature be desired.
Factory setting is ON.
Once the Dip switches have been set, and the unit is installed
in the frame or enclosure, apply power to the unit and observe
operation.
Set both potentiometers to minimum setting initially (fully
counter-clockwise). See Diagram 3 for location. Adjust the range
potentiometer by turning the pot in a clockwise manner, and
passing your hand in front of the unit. Rotate the pot until the
desired range is obtained. See Diagram 5 for patterns.
Next, adjust the time delay potentiometer by turning clockwise
5. SYSTEM INSPECTION INSTRUCTIONS
After the Installation and operational check of the system:
1. Place warning label on the door (as per ANSI A156.10 or
A156.19 guidelines). This will advise the person entering the
