SAFETY TIPS
- The device contains IR and visible laser beams.
- IR laser : wavelength 905nm; max. output pulse power 25W
- (Class 1 according to IEC 60825-1)
- Visible laser : wavelength 635nm; max. output CW power 0.95mW
- (Class 2 according to IEC 60825-1)
- The visible laser beams can be deceived during normal operation. The installer can activate the visible beams if needed.
CAUTION!
- Use of controls, adjustments, or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
- Ensure compliance with applicable local, national, and international codes and standards.
SYMBOLS
NOTES ON VISIBLE LASER BEAMS
- Visible laser beams are used for the estimation of curtain coverage during the initial adjustment stage. For precise installation of the sensor, please evaluate your detection field and adjust curtain accordingly (see Detection Field, page 13).
- The shape of the laser spot is oval. The farther the laser spot emits, the more the spot diffuses. Refer to diagram below to calculate the position.
- A visible spot has around ± 1⁄2″ deviation at 10′ distance. Please ensure that the curtain is in the correct position.
MOUNTING
A mounting bracket is required for FLATSCAN S installation. The instructions in this User’s Guide describe the use of FLATSCAN S Mounting Bracket.
- a. Use the sensor mounting screws to secure the sensor to the bracket in the correct position (i.e. laser window at 90°).
- b. Use the Mounting Bracket mounting screws to secure bracket (with sensor) to the desired mounting location. Note: BEA recommends a mounting height of 14 – 17″ for vehicle detection in a horizontal mounting orientation.
- c. If necessary, adjust the angle of the sensor by loosening and tightening the tilt angle screw of the FLATSCAN S Mounting Bracket. Fine-tuning the angle will be done later.
- d. Remove the red, protective cover from the laser window and ensure that nothing is obstructing the window.
WIRING
- If monitoring is not connected, the cable must be wired to the power cable.
- Ensure that the sensor is properly grounded (connected to the earth).
- If only VAC power is available, a 12V transformer paired with a rectifier must be used. Do not use a 24V transformer and rectifier as this will cause damage to the product.
- Output status when sensor is operational (can be NO or NC). See page 15, OUTPUT CONFIGURATION.
FIELD POSITIONING
- This section illustrates the field positioning in 3 possible applications (doors, barrier arms, and sliding gates) and the respective field orientations (vertical or horizontal) for each.
- Follow the instructions for your given application.
DOORS: Vertical Field
- Activate visible laser beams.
- Select mounting side – left or right.
- If necessary, position the field using the tilt angle screw. Loosen the screw to move the field closer to the door and tighten the screw to move the field away from the door.
NOTE : See page 5 for more information on the visible laser beams.
BARRIER ARMS: Horizontal Field
- Activate visible laser beams.
- Select mounting side – left or right.
- If necessary, position the field using the tilt angle screw. Loosen the screw to angle the field down and tighten the screw to angle the field up.
NOTE : See page 5 for more information on the visible laser beams.
When the approaching area is sloped, be sure that the sensor tilt angle closely matches the slope angle to ensure that the intended target can be detected at the specified distance.
SLIDING GATES: Horizontal Field
- Activate visible laser beams.
- Select mounting side – left or right.
- If necessary, position the field using the tilt angle screw. Loosen the screw to angle the field down and tighten the screw to angle the field up.
NOTE: See page 5 for more information on the visible laser beams.
SLIDING GATES: Vertical Field
- Activate visible laser beams.
- Select mounting side – left or right.
- If necessary, position the field using the tilt angle screw. Loosen the screw to move the field closer to the door and tighten the screw to move the field away from the gate.
NOTE: See page 5 for more information on the visible laser beams.
TEACH-IN
- Use the following remote control key sequence to learn the detection area.
- IMPORTANT : Be sure to clear the detection field before the teach-in process begins.
- NOTE : If the Detection Field size is changed from the default, you must perform the appropriate teach-in for the given field.
REMOTE CONTROL SETTINGS (OPTIONAL)
- The FLATSCAN S sensor is configured to understand metric measurements.
- If necessary, please convert your measurements from imperial to metric by multiplying your imperial measurements by 0.3.
- Please note that the detection range can be guaranteed with 5% reflectivity at 13′ diagonal when fog filter value is set to 0, if the fog filter value is not 0, then the guaranteed detection distance will be shortened with 5% reflectivity.
HOW TO USE THE REMOTE CONTROL
The remote control is most effective within 13 feet of the sensor.
- After unlocking, the red LED flashes and the sensor can be adjusted by remote control.
- If the red LED flashes quickly after unlocking, you need to enter an access code from 1 to 4 digits.
- If you do not know the access code, cycle the power. During 1 minute, you can access the sensor without introducing any access code.
- To end an adjustment session, always lock the sensor.
ADJUSTING ONE OR MORE PARAMETERS
CHECKING A VALUE
RESTORING TO FACTORY VALUES
SAVING AN ACCESS CODE
The access code is recommended for sensors installed close to each other and
can be established to prevent unauthorized operation
DELETING AN ACCESS CODE
RESTORING TO DEFAULTS
- Full : resets all parameters to factory settings
- Partial : resets all parameters except detection field, output configuration, and output redirection to factory settings
If unused for 30 minutes, the sensor will time out of the remote control session. Cut and restore power supply. The remote control session is accessible again within 30 minutes.
