MANUFACTURER'S STATEMENT

WARNING

Do not wash, disassemble, rebuild or repair the sensor, otherwise it may cause electric shock or breakdown of the equipment.

Danger of electric shock.

WARNING

CAUTION

NOTE

Disregard of warning may cause the improper operation causing death or serious injury of a person.

Special attention is required to the section of this symbol.

Disregard of caution may cause the improper operation causing injury of a person or damage to objects.

NOTE

Read this operation manual carefully before use to ensure proper operation of this product. Failure to read this operation manual may cause improper operation and may result in serious injury or death of a person.The meanings of the symbols are as follows.

1. This product is a non-contact switch intended for header mount or wall mount for use on an automatic sliding door. Do not use for any other applications.

2. When setting the sensor's detection area, make sure that there is no traffic around the installation site.

3. Before turning the power ON, check the wiring to prevent damage or malfunction of equipment connected to the product.

4. Only use the product as specified in the operation manual provided.

5. Be sure to install and adjust the sensor in accordance with the local laws and standards of the country in which the product is installed.

6. Before leaving the installation site make sure that the product is operating properly and instruct the building owner/operator on proper operation of the door and the product.

7.The product settings can only be changed by an installer or service engineer. When changed, the changed settings and the date shall be registered in the maintenance logbook accompanying the door.

NOTE

The following conditions are not suitable for sensor installation :

- Fog or exhaust emission around the door.

- Wet floor.

- Moving objects or objects that emit light near the detection field.

- Highly reflecting floor or highly reflecting objects around the door.

- Grating floor.

It is required to check the operation manual if this symbol is shown on the product.

CAUTION

Risk of getting caught.

Make sure to affix the mounting template as described in the above chart , otherwise it can be dangerous since there may be no detection area around the threshold. Install the sensor as low as possible on the header.

H : Height from the floor to the bottom of the header Y : Distance between the bottom of the header and the sensor

X : Distance between the door and the mounting surface

1. Affix the mounting template at the desired mounting position.

2. Drill two mounting holes of ø3.4mm (ø1/8").

3. To pass the cable through the header, drill a wiring hole of ø10mm (ø3/8").

4. Remove the mounting template.

5. Remove the housing cover. Fix the sensor to the mounting surface with the two mounting screws.

(When setting the detection area close to the door, mount the sensor according to the chart below.)

NOTE

Make sure not to mount the sensor lower than the bottom of header.

WARNING

Danger of electric shock.

Do not use the sensor without the cover. When using the cable knockout, install the sensor indoors or use the rain-cover (Separately available) otherwise electric shock or breakdown of the sensor may occur.

Place the housing cover. If wiring is to be exposed, break the knockout.

BLUEZONE AREA

When dipswitch 15 is set to "ON", the BLUEZONE area, that provides extra safety over the threshold, is activated. In case the BLUEZONE function is not required, set dipswitch 15 to "OFF". Do not set the 2nd row overlapping the threshold regardless of the setting of dipswitch 15.

This sensor is designed to detect a hand approaching to a touchless plate as a knowing act activation device. Please make sure to understand the following working principle. If FLEX EYE mode is enabled (Dipswitch 14 is set to "ON"), this sensor an activation output when both FLEX EYE and 2nd to 4th row of detection area detect some objects. FLEX EYE means an area for the hand detection.

Safety output is designed to be used on door system that enables only while the door is open. When FLEX EYE is enabled (Dipswitch 14 is set to "ON"), detection area (of 2nd to 6th row) is

safety output area.

BLUEZONE is only activated while Activation output is emitted. When no detection, BLUEZONE is deactivated.

Dipswitch 15 can adjust the FLEX EYE function ON or OFF.

- FLEX EYE mode ON.(Dipswitch 15 OFF)

- FLEX EYE mode OFF.(Dipswitch 15 ON) You can use AIR-SLIDE 2 as normal Autodoor activation sensor. You do not need to adjust FLEX EYE function.

During FLEX EYE and Secondary Activation area are both working, Primary Activation output is emited. When only one function is working, Primary Activation output is not emited.

This sensor is designed to detect a hand approaching to a touchless plate as a knowing act activation device. Please make sure to understand the following working principle. This sensor sends primary activation output when both "FLEX EYE and 2nd to 4th row" detect some object. After the detection until the door fully closes, 2nd to 6th rows work as a Secondary Activation output. "FLEX EYE" means a detection area for the hand. Secondary Activation area is from the 2nd row to the 6th row.

The actual Secondary Activation area may become smaller depending on the ambient light, the color / material of the object or the floor as well as the entry speed of the object. The sensor may not be activated when the entering speed of the object or a person is slower than 50mm / sec. or faster than 1500mm / sec.

Secondary Activation area angle adjustment

FLEX EYE angle adjustment

1. Always keep the detection window clean. If dirty, wipe the window with a damp cloth.(Do not use any cleaner / solvent.)

2. Do not wash the sensor with water.

3. Do not disassemble, rebuild or repair the sensor yourself, otherwise electric shock may occur.

4. When the operation indicator blinks Green, contact your installer or service engineer.

5. Always contact your installer or service engineer when changing the settings.

6. Do not paint the detection window.

WARNING

1. When turning the power ON, always walk-test the detection area to ensure the proper operation.

2. Do not place any objects that move or emit light in the detection area. (e.g. Plant, illumination, etc.)
