  INSTALLATION TIPS**

  • The sensor must be firmly fastened in order not to vibrate.
  • The sensor must not be placed directly behind a panel or any kind of material.
  • The sensor must not have any object likely to move or vibrate in its sensing field.
  • The sensor must not have any fluorescent lighting in its sensing field.
  • The sensor housing cover is adjusted at factory; there is no need to adjust at installation location.

LED SIGNALS

ACTIVITY

COLOR INDICATIONS

HOW TO USE THE REMOTE CONTROL

ADJUSTING ONE OR MORE PARAMETERS

CHECKING A VALUE

x = number of flashes = value of parameter
SAVING AN ACCESS CODE
The access code (1 to 4 digits) is recommended to set sensors installed close to each other.

Once you have saved an access code, you always need to enter this code to unlock the sensor.
If you forget the access code, cycle the power. For the first minute, you can access the sensor without an access code.
DELETING AN ACCESS CODE

DELETING AN UNKNOWN ACCESS CODE

HOW TO USE THE PUSH BUTTONS

START/END AN ADJUSTMENT SESSION: press and hold either push button until the LED flashes or stops flashing
SCROLL THROUGH PARAMETERS: press the right push button
CHANGE VALUE OF CHOSEN PARAMETER: press the left push button
RESET TO FACTORY VALUES: press and hold both push buttons until both LEDs flash
You must unscrew the explosion-proof cover to access the push buttons.
To do so, loosen the set screw and then unscrew the lid.

MOUNTING

a) Bolt the bracket securely to the wall or other rigid surface. Make sure that the two 5⁄16 – 18 Allen head bolts are loose so that the sensor can rotate freely.
b) Rotate the sensor to the appropriate angle for the application. When the bracket rotates, it will click. Every click represents a 7.5° angle adjustment.
c) Lock the angle adjustment by tightening the two 5 ⁄16 – 18 Allen head bolts.
Horizontal angle adjustments can be made by loosening the mounting bolts on the base and twisting to the desired angle.

WIRING

Connect the wires to the controller/PCB (i.e. intrusion detection system).
If necessary, an optional grounding lug is provided to ground the equipment to minimize the risk of electrostatic charge. The equipment must be installed in such a manner that accidental discharge will not occur.
The grounding lug is not required for product functionality but may be required for the application and/or local, national, and international regulations, codes, and standards.

• The Tamper Switch is N.C. with housing face plate cover attached. Removing the housing face plate causes the switch to open. System resistors may be applied at the Tamper Switch inside the housing or outside at a given location.

• Tamper Switch location is COM and will operate with N.O. or N.C. outputs.

DETECTION FIELD DIMENSIONS

SETTINGS

POSSIBLE SETTINGS BY PUSH BUTTONS

Choose the correct detection filter (rejection mode) for your application with the remote control or push buttons.

Detection of all targets
(pedestrians and parallel traffic are detected)

1. no specific filter
2. filter against disturbances (recommended in case of vibrations, rain etc.)

**Detection only of vehicles moving***
(pedestrians and parallel traffic are not detected + disturbances are filtered)
Value recommendations according to angle and height:

| 23 – 11.5 ft| 8 ft
---|---|---
-75°| 3| 3
-60°| 4| 4
-45°| 5| 4
45°| 6| 5

Always check if the chosen value is optimal for the application.
The object size and nature can influence the detection.

• The vehicle detection filter increases the response time of the sensor.

TROUBLESHOOTING

| Door remains closed. LED is off.| Sensor power is off.| Check wiring and power supply.
---|---|---|---
| Door does not react as expected.| Improper output configuration on sensor.| Check the output configuration setting on each sensor connected to the door operator.
| Door opens and closes constantly.| The sensor is disturbed by door motion or vibrations caused by door motion.| Ensure sensor is secured properly.
Ensure detection mode is unidirectional.
Increase tilt angle.
Increase detection filter value.
Reduce field size.
| Door opens for no apparent reason.| It rains and the sensor detects raindrops or vibrations.| Ensure detection mode is unidirectional.
Increase detection filter value.
In highly reflective environments, the sensor detects objects outside of its detection field.| Change the antenna angle.
Reduce field size.
Increase detection filter value.
Vehicle detection filter is used, but pedestrians are still detected.| Chosen value is not optimal for the given application.| Increase detection filter value.
Decrease sensor angle.
Increase mounting height.
Ensure detection mode is unidirectional.

| LED flashes quickly after unlocking.| Sensor needs access code to unlock.| Enter correct access code.
If you forgot the code, cycle the power to access the sensor without access code.
Change or delete the access code.
| Sensor does not respond to the remote control.| Batteries in the remote control are weak or installed improperly.| Check batteries and change if necessary.

BEA, INC. INSTALLATION/SERVICE COMPLIANCE EXPECTATIONS
BEA, Inc., the sensor manufacturer, cannot be held responsible for incorrect installations or incorrect adjustments of the sensor/device; therefore, BEA, Inc. does not guarantee any use of the sensor/device outside of its intended purpose.
BEA, Inc. strongly recommends that installation and service technicians be AAADM-certifi ed for pedestrian doors, IDA-certifi ed for doors/ gates, and factory-trained for the type of door/gate system.
Installers and service personnel are responsible for executing a risk assessment following each installation/service performed, ensuring that the sensor/device system performance is compliant with local, national, and international regulations, codes, and standards.
Once installation or service work is complete, a safety inspection of the door/gate shall be performed per the door/gate manufacturer’s recommendations and/or per AAADM/ANSI/DASMA guidelines (where applicable) for best industry practices. Safety inspections must be performed during each service call – examples of these safety inspections can be found on an AAADM safety information label (e.g.
ANSI/DASMA 102, ANSI/DASMA 107, UL294, UL325, and International Building Code).
Verify that all appropriate industry signage, warning labels, and placards are in place.
