PRECAUTIONS

  1. Shut off all power going to header before attempting any wiring procedures.
  2. ‰ Observe battery polarity when inserting batteries.
  3. ‰ Maintain a clean and safe environment when working in public areas.
  4. ‰ Constantly be aware of pedestrian traffic around the door area.
  5. ‰ Always stop pedestrian traffic through the doorway when performing tests that may result in unexpected reactions by the door.
  6. ESD (electrostatic discharge): Circuit boards are vulnerable to damage by electrostatic discharge.
  7. Before handling any board, ensure you dissipate your body’s ESD charge.
  8. 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.
  9. Ensure compliance with all applicable safety standards (i.e. ANSI A156.10 and 156.19) upon completion of installation.
  10. 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.

ASSEMBLY DIAGRAM

PREPARE INSTALLATION SITE

To ensure system performance, BEA recommends using only plastic electrical boxes.

PREPARE MS51W ASSEMBLY

  • Note that battery life can be impacted by this setting. Using the short detection range provides a 3-year maximum battery life, while using the long range provides a 2-year maximum battery life.
    ** Distances for software version 2.02 and higher. See page 8 for information on identifying software version.
    *** Be aware that the use of High Immunity reduces detection range.

INSTALL MS51W ASSEMBLY

4. Install MS51W assembly on box. Observe the orientation of the assembly as well as each individual component.

5. Secure with the provided screws (#6-32 flathead) and test functionality.

COMPLETE THE INSTALLATION

6. If retrofitting, ensure that the current application is equipped with a 900 MHz receiver. If not (or if new installation), install a 900 MHz receiver.
7. Pair the transmitter and receiver:
a. Press and release desired learn button.
The red LED on the receiver will illuminate.
b. Activate the MS51W twice.
The blue LED on the receiver will illuminate.
See 900 MHz Family User’s Guide (75.5937) for more information.

TROUBLESHOOTING

SOFTWARE VERSION

To determine what software version is programmed to your sensor, observe the LED behavior upon power-up. The number of green LED flashes will indicate the given software version.

For example, a sensor using software version 2.02 will blink green two times, pause (to indicate the decimal), and then blink green two more times.

FCC/IC COMPLIANCE

“This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.” Changes or modifications not expressly approved by BEA Incorporated could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules.

These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.

This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.

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.
