INSTALLATION MANUAL

AX-350TF, AX-650TF

< 4 SELECTABLE BEAM FREQUENCIES >

Please read intsructions completely before beginning installation.

Photoelectric detectors detect intruders when both the upper and lower invisible infrared beams are simultaneously broken.

Maximum detection range between Transmitter and Receiver for the AX-250PLUS is 250ft. (75m), the AX-500PLUS is 500ft. (150m) and for the

AX-350TF is 350ft. (100m), the AX-650TF is 650ft. (200m)

• Beam interruption time adjustment

• Anti-Frost Structure

• Alignment level monitor jack

• Form C relay

• Tamper

• Option

• UL Listed

AX-350TF, AX-650TF ONLY

• LED indicator for fine beam alignment level

• Selectable beam frequencies

• Re-Transmit Circuit

• D.Q.Circuit (Environmental Disqualification)

• Alarm Memory

FEATURES

: This function allows you to select the suitable beam interruption time for any environment.
: Prevents fog and condensation from blocking the beams.
: Can easily obtain maximum optical alignment by checking the voltage from this jack.
: Form C relay for more applications.
: N.C., Opens when cover is removed.
: Heating unit (HU-1), Back cover (BC-1) AX-Beam Tower (AX-BT)

: The optical alignment level can be checked at the Reciver.
: Crosstalk is eliminated with 4, channel selectable, beam frequencies. Used when stacking beams

or for long range applications.

: The advantage of this method is the elimination of wiring, from a detector or switch, back to the

control panel.

: The environmental compensation circuit is designed to eliminate false alarms caused by snow,

fog, heavy rain, ice and misalignment.
