Safety
3.2 General safety instructions
The operator of the system is responsible in terms of planning, mounting, set-up, operating and maintenance.
Installation and set-up of all devices must be performed by a trained professional only.
Protection of operating personnel and the system is not ensured if the module is not used in accordance with its in-
tended purpose.
Conformance to the laws and regulations applicable to the specified or intended usage should be ensured. The de-
vices are only approved for proper professional usage in accordance with the intended purposes. Improper handling
will void any claim made under the warranty and any manufacturer's liability.
Only use recommended original accessories.
If serious faults occur, stop using the device. Secure the device against inadvertent operation. In the event of repairs,
send the device to Pepperl+Fuchs. Independent interventions and separate modifications are dangerous and will
void the warranty and exclude the manufacturer from any liability.
Dispose of the defective device in accordance with country-specific legal requirements.
Correctly dispose of the sensor by handing it over to a designated collection point for the recycling of electrical and
electronic equipment waste.
In order to satisfy the safety requirements specified in EN60950-1 and UL508, the sensor must
be operated from an SELV supply where output is limited to 100 W.

Installation
Connecting the RMS-FRW
The sensor is supplied with power via the connection plug. It is also possible to directly connect
to the relay contact on the connection plug. Proceed as follows:
1. Connect the cable to the power supply.
2. Insert the socket on the cable into the connection plug on the printed circuit board.
3. Connect the safety sensor terminal on the controller (door control) with the relay contacts or
the corresponding voltage or frequency output of the movement detector. For this, use the
suitable wires of the cable coming from the RMS-FRW.
4. For all further steps, refer to Set-up (see section 6)
5. After completing all the settings for the sensor, push the cover over the base plate. Hook the
cover on to the upper end of the base plate and press the cover until it clicks into place.
The plug has the following pin assignment:

Maintenance and repair
8Maintenance and repair
Maintenance
Conformance to all applicable laws and regulations regarding maintenance must be ensured.
The sensor is largely maintenance-free.
However, periodically check the technical safety of the sensor system for damage to the housing.
The sensor should be checked occasionally for contamination. To clean the sensor, wipe the sensor with a dry or
damp soft cloth at regular intervals. This assures optimal functioning.
The housing is made of plastic. Therefore avoid contact with acetone and cleaning agents containing solvents.
Repairs
If safe operation is no longer possible, the sensor system must be disconnected and protected against accidental
use. In the event of repairs, send the device to Pepperl+Fuchs. Independent interventions and separate modifications are dangerous and will void the warranty and exclude the manufacturer from any liability.
9Troubleshooting
Interfering influences
• The sensor must be mounted securely and not subject to any vibration.
• The sensor must not be installed behind a cover
• The sensing area should be free of moving objects (ex. fans, plants, trees, flags etc.)
• The sensor should be mounted with suitable rain protection. (For recommended accessories see section 4.3)
• The sensor should not be mounted close to fluorescent lighting

Sensitivity
Using this sensitivity setting, the size of the sensing area can be changed.
The setting options range from 1 (smallest sensing area) to 10 (largest sensing area).
This setting can be set using the remote control or the keypad menu.
Detection mode
The direction recognition can be changed with the detection mode.
SettingDescription
MonoDetects forward and backward movement
ForwardDetects movement towards the sensor
BackwardDetects movement away from the sensor
This setting can be set using the remote control or the keypad menu.
Suppression of cross traffic
This mode can be used to change the strength of cross traffic suppression. The setting options range from 1 (off),
2 - 5 (low) to 6 - 10 (high). High cross traffic suppression means strong suppression (fade out) of cross traffic.
This setting can be set using the remote control or the keypad menu.
Immunity
In principle, the sensor is immune against any interfering influences. However, special installation situations or major
sources of interference may sometimes cause incorrect triggering. The immunity setting can be used to minimize
various interfering influences (vibrations, reflections, fluorescence lighting etc.).
The setting options range from 1 (off), 2 - 5 (low) to 6 - 10 (high).
This setting can be set using the remote control or the keypad menu.
