QUICK OPTICAL ALIGNMENT
Alarm Indication LED in Viewfinder
The alarm condition is visually displayed using an alarm
indication LED which is visible on the front of the unit and
can also be seen through the viewfinder.
LED is "ON"
: Beam energy from
the transmitter is not
reaching the receiver.
LED is "OFF"
: Beam energy from
transmitter is reaching
the receiver.
Fine Adjustment

(Note: Fine adjustment must always be
done with a Volt Meter - See Installation

Clear Viewfinder Visibility
A conveniently placed viewfinder allows for easy alignment
even in some of the most difficult mounting situations.
Fine Angle Adjustment for Alignment
The rotating dial allows the installer to finely adjust the beam
easily either horizontally (180°/
with or without the use of a screwdriver (finger adjustable).

Rain, Dust & Insect Protection
The Rubber O-Ring & Rubber
Grommets used in the AX100/200PLUS & ALPHA Series
prevent rain, dust and tiny
insects from adversely
affecting performance. (IP55)

Frost & Dew Protection
An anti-frost and convex visor design is incorporated to protect
the detector from effect of frost & dew.
High Grade Aspherical Lens
The high grade aspherical lens creates more sharply defined &
precise infrared beams compared to ordinary fresnel lenses.

3 Step LED Indicator for Fast and
Accurate Fine Beam Alignment
The alignment condition is visually displayed on the
front and in the viewfinder of the receiver. Verification
of alignment is achieved by using the 3-step process
shown below.
LED is "ON"
: Before alignment.
LED is "Flickering"
: Beam energy from
transmitter is reaching
receiver.
LED is "OFF"
: Ready for fine
tuning.

Twin Synchronized Pulsed Beams
Designed for Greater Stability
"And Gate" dual beams require simultaneous interruption of
both beams to trigger an activation. No activation is generated
when a bird or falling leaves break just one beam.
99.5% Beam Blocking Stability
Enables stable operation with as much as 99.5% loss of beam
energy caused by heavy rain, dust storms, fog or snow.
A.G.C. (Automatic Gain Control) Circuit
The A.G.C. Circuit continually monitors for gradual changes in
the signal's strength caused by changing weather conditions.
It adjusts the sensitivity accordingly to maintain the proper
signal level for the current environmental conditions.
Adjustable Beam Interruption Period
The Beam Interruption Time (the amount of time a beam
must be broken for an alarm to occur) can be adjusted to fit
any application. For example, when protecting a wall or
fence, a longer interruption time will catch intruders, but let
jumping cats pass through without setting off an alarm.
Selectable 4-Channel Beam Frequencies
The selectable beam frequencies can be used to
avoid unwanted cross talk that can occur when using
multiple photobeams for long distance or beam
stacking applications.
