DADA

PIR Detector for Automatic Door Control

1. INTRODUCTION

1. INTRODUCTION

1. INTRODUCTION1. INTRODUCTION

The DA-5 is a PIR motion detector designed for use with access
control and automatic door opening systems. It can be installed at
various heights on the wall above the door (Figure 1) or on the ceiling
(Figure 2), with its detection pattern directed at the floor in front of the
door. Upon detection of motion, the on-board changeover relay
energizes for a predetermined period. The relay pull-in time is
adjustable between 1 and 60 seconds with an on-board timer control.

Operating power for the DA-5 may be supplied from a 12 or 24V AC
or DC source. A jumper is provided on the printed circuit board for
selecting the input voltage.

3.1 Construction Details

The unit consists of a plastic
base to which the electronic
module is fastened, and a cover
assembly with a curved surface
to which the milky white lens is
attached. The cover must be
removed for:

- Installation and wiring

- Adjusting the timer

- Selecting the input voltage

- Inverting the lens for ceiling
installation.

B. Lens Description
The DA-5 uses lens No. 74 that
has 3 arrays of lens seg­ments (Fig 3). Each array
provides a detection zone, and
all 3 zones combine to form the
entire detection pattern (see
Figures 5 thru 8).

Any detection zone or lens segment may be masked (para. 3.8). The

lens is factory set as required for wall mounting, but may be easily
inverted for ceiling mounting (para. 3.3).

C. Cover Removal

To separate the cover from the base, insert a screwdriver blade into the
slot provided between the cover and the base. Twist the screwdriver
slightly or move the handle down. The cover will swing outward, ready for
removal by hand.

3.2 Detection Patterns

A. Over-the-Door Wall Mounting
The DA-5 may be wall-mounted at various heights above the door,
centered with respect to the doorframe. Increasing the mounting height
will cause the coverage pattern to expand, as demonstrated in figures 5 -

8. Note that detection zones B and C partially overlap.

B. Ceiling Mounting
If the DA-5 is mounted on the ceiling, the detection patterns will resemble
those obtained with the unit mounted at the corres- ponding height on the
wall.

3.3 Ceiling Installation

Ceiling mounting requires the lens be inverted in its window.

MOUNTING
Alternatives: Wall or ceiling mounting above the door. Surface mountable

on top of a standard single-gang electrical switchbox.

Height: 2.15 - 3 m (7 - 10 ft)
ENVIRONMENTAL
Operating Temperature: -10°C to 50°C (14°F to 122°F)
Storage Temperature: -20°C to 60°C (-4°F to 140°F)
Intended Use: Indoors or in water/rain-protected outdoor areas.
PHYSICAL
Size: 105 x 65 x 53 mm (4-1/10 x 2-1/2 x 2-1/10 in.).
Weight: 95 g (3.3 oz).
Color: White.

The lens is held in place by a flexible plastic retainer. The lens number
(74) is engraved on the inner grooved surface of the lens near the top rim
(see Figure 9).
To invert the lens, proceed as follows:

A. Hold the cover assembly in the palm of your hand.
B. Seize the flat extractor tab (part of the lens retainer) between two

fingers of your other hand.

C. Press the extractor tab slightly down and pull it toward the opposite

side of the cover. This will dislodge the lens retainer, which can then
be removed.

D. Push the lens carefully out. Invert it (180° rotation) and place it again

in the lens window. The lens number should now be near the 4 small
plastic stoppers. Verify that the lens is snug against the lens window
frame.

E. Insert the straight, smooth edge of the lens retainer into the deep end

of the lens window. Then press the extractor tab down until the near
edge of the lens retainer snaps into place.

3.5 Wiring

The wiring configuration depends on the door control circuit in use. The
output relay contacts of the DA-5 can switch currents up to 2A at 28 VAC
or DC. Refer to Fig. 11 and connect as follows:
A. Wire the output relay's C and N.O. (or C and N.C.) contacts to switch

the door control device on and off, as required for the door control
circuit in use.

Warning! Verify that the input voltage jumper is positioned correctly.
For 12V operation, install it across the two pins. If the power source is
24 V, remove the jumper and install it on a single pin to prevent it from
getting lost.

leads to the 12/24 V (+) and (–)
terminals. The unit accepts
both AC and DC inputs. When
using an AC supply, disregard
the (+) and (–) markings.

C. Seal all wire entry holes with RTV (clear silicone sealant) to prevent

insects and air currents from entering the unit.

Figure 11.Terminal Block.

3.6 Timer Adjustment

The relay timer is adjustable from 3 seconds to 1 minute, as required for
triggering the door control mechanism. Rotate the knob towards MIN to
decrease the relay pull-in time, and towards MAX to increase the relay
pull in time. The results of your adjustment can be verified by watching the
on-board LED, which will be lit as long as the output relay is energized.

Note: For an accurate timer adjustment test, the cover must be installed.

3.7 Testing

A. Mount the cover by pushing it onto the base until it snaps into place

with a click.

B. Apply power to the DA-5 and wait 5 minutes for the unit to warm up

and stabilize before testing.

C. Test the DA-5 by walking towards the door through the detector’s field

of view. Verify that the LED lights and the relay pulls in each time the
detection pattern is crossed. If operation is erratic, readjust the timer
control of the DA-5.

D. If the coverage pattern is too far from the door, you can mask the

farthest beam array (para. 3.8).

3.8 Beam Masking

Ordinary opaque masking tape can be used to mask individual lens
segments of any one of the three detection zones, or an entire zone (Fig.

3). The masking tape will prevent the infrared energy from reaching the
sensor through the blocked segment.
Cut a masking tape patch that fits the dimensions of the lens area you
wish to block. Apply it accurately to the inner (grooved) surface of the
appropriate segment(s). In some cases, more than one layer of the
masking tape may be required to completely block the infrared energy.

For information regarding the recycling of this product you must contact the
company from which you orignially purchased it. If you are discarding this
product and not returning it for repair then you must ensure that it is returned
as identified by your supplier. This product is not to be thrown away with
everyday waste.
