SYMPTOMS PROBABLE CAUSES CORRECTIVE ACTIONS

The door will not open and the LED does not light up The sensor is not properly powered a. Check the power supply

b. Check the supplied voltage

The door will not open and the LED lights up The wiring of the relay output is not Check the relay wiring

connected correctly

The door opens when no detection occurs and closes The mode of the relay output is Change the dip-switch #2 position
during a detection not correct

The sensing field does not correspond to your The cut of the masking lens is wrong Cut out a new lens to meet the required
requirements sensing field size

C. SETTING THE SENSING FIELD

•To adjust the sensing field according to your specific needs, use the masking delivered in the sensor box;
The minimum detection area at mounting height of 2.2 m is 0.5 m x 0.5 m

•To tailor the sensing field, cut segments

Remarks :

1) Be careful to cut just entire segments

2) It is necessary to cut at least one segment to get a detection

To insert the masking lens :

•Consider the position of the guide pins when inserting both legs of the masking lens to the front cover

•Gently push both legs of the masking lens

To remove the masking lens :

•Insert the screwdriver between the leg of the masking lens and the leg of the front cover

•Use it as a lever downwards
