PRECAUTIONS

This device is NOT intended for use as a safety sensor.

!

Shut off all power going to header before attempting any wiring procedures. Maintain a clean and safe environment when working in public areas.

CAUTION

Constantly be aware of pedestrian/vehicle traffic around the area.
Always stop pedestrian/vehicle traffic through the doorway when performing tests that may result in unexpected reactions by the door.

ESD (electrostatic discharge): Circuit boards are vulnerable to damage by electrostatic discharge. Before handling any board, ensure you dissipate your body’s ESD charge.

Always check placement of all wiring before powering up to ensure that moving door parts will not catch any wires and cause damage to equipment.

Ensure compliance with all applicable safety standards upon completion of installation.

DO NOT attempt any internal repair of the components. All repairs and/or component replacements must be performed by BEA, Inc. Unauthorized disassembly or repair:

1. May jeopardize personal safety and may expose one to the risk of electrical shock. 2. May adversely affect the safe and reliable performance of the product resulting in a voided
warranty.

Only trained and qualified personnel may install and setup the sensor.

Only trained and qualified personnel are recommended to install and set up the sensor.

Always test the proper operation of the installation before leaving the premises.
75.5695.09 IS40 IS40XL 20230908

The warranty is void if unauthorized repairs are made or attempted by unauthorized personnel.

· The graphics above are not to scale and are for illustration purposes only. These graphics represent approximate detection fields when mounted at 16 feet high. AIR-Infrared field = emitting spots detectable by using the SPOTFINDER. The actual detection field is slightly smaller and is influenced by external factors.
· It’s important to adjust the sensor angle to position the detection fields correctly for your application. Utilizing a mounting bracket, sensor location, and reveal will dictate the sensor angle for your application.

HOW TO USE THE REMOTE CONTROL
After unlocking, the red LED flashes and the sensor can be adjusted by remote control.
If the red LED flashes quickly after unlocking, enter an access code from 1 to 4 digits. If you do not know the access code, cut and restore the power supply and within the first minute, you can access the sensor without introducing any access code.

is too low with respect to the

mounting height.

Lower the mounting height. Step out of the detection field and launch a new setup. Possible target size too large.

The door opens for no apparent reason.

The sensor detects raindrops or vibrations.

Make sure the detection mode is unidirectional. Increase the detection filter value.

The sensor is not installed properly.

Secure the sensor.

In highly reflective environments, Change the antenna angle.

of its detection field.

Increase the detection filter value.

The vehicle detection filter is used, but pedestrians are still detected.

The chosen value is not optimal for the application.

Increase the detection filter value. Change the sensor angle. Increase the mounting height.

The door opens and closes constantly.

The sensor is disturbed by the door motion or vibrations caused by the door motion.

Make sure the sensor is anchored properly. Make sure the detection mode is unidirectional. Change the sensor angle and/or radar angle. Increase the detection filter value. Reduce the field size.

Sporadic presence detections for no reason.

The presence detection is disturbed by rain or external environment.

Set the AIRcurtain immunity to value 3. Refer to page 7.

The sensor is not installed properly.

Secure the sensor.

The red LED is permanently ON after a setup.

The sensor has failed the AIR setup.

Step out of the detection field and launch a new setup.

The setup lasts more than 30 seconds.

The setup is disturbed.

Make sure the detection field is clear and launch a new setup.

Another sensor is causing interferences.

Refer to page 7 and select a different frequency for each sensor.

The sensor does not unlock and the red LED flashes quickly.

The sensor needs an access code to unlock.

Enter the correct access code. If you do not know the access code, refer to page 4 and delete an unknown code.

The sensor does not respond to the remote control.

The remote control batteries are weak or improperly installed.
The remote control is poorly aimed.

Check the batteries and change them 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-certified for pedestrian doors, IDA-certified 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.
