Testable surface sensor for moving

operation on automatic door systems

Always consider the safety functions of your application as a whole, never

just in relation to one individual section of the system.

The sensor may only be operated in the aluminium profile provided for this purpose.

Parts of the sensor may become hot during operation.

The installer is responsible for carrying out a risk assessment and installing the

sensor and the door system correctly.

2.3 Mounting the optical unit

1. If the profile does not have any mounting holes, make

some in the rear of the profile and mount it so that it is hori-

zontal (use a spirit level). Important: The aluminium profile

must lay flat against the mounting surface.

2. If the front cover  has been supplied by metre

and needs to be cut to size, lay it on a flat, clean

surface and cut it using a fine tooth hacksaw,

a metal cutter or a rotary tool (with an appro-

priate attachment), without applying any pressure.

To attach the cover following start-up: 1. remove

protective foil 2. Insert the cover , 3. Click the

cover into place.

3. Affix the end caps after attaching the cover.

Affix the end caps  with alignment pins

on the profile side. Optional: Affix the end

caps with screws for reinforced fixation.

Therefore pierce through the drill-hole.

Sensor b must be rotated by 180° and

mounted.

The buttons red and green on the optical unit must be

mounted onto the corresponding door edge.

Check the function of your entire door system in relation to the applicable safety standards (e.g. N 16005) and U regulations.

Cable to door controller

Notes on wiring:

Wiring according to the requirement of the door system

1. Pull screw terminal out of the sensor to be connected to the door controller

(= master sensor).

2. Perform wiring in accordance with the door controller specifications.

3. Once the plug terminal has been wired, re-insert it into the sensor.

Connection diagram for individual sensors

Attention! Connection scheme is illustrated powered off

In standard relay is powered (passive)

NC = Use connection 5 (NO)

If AC voltage is supplied, only single sensor operation is possible and it is

not allowed to cascade the sensors by ribbon cable. Always use ferrules

when wiring (recommended core cross-section 0.25 mm2).

For a both-sided protection of the door, it is recommended to us the optional

Y-Adapter (288879).

Master/slave wiring

Master/slave wiring using enclosed ribbon cable. A maximum of 3 additional

slave modules can be added in this way.

Setting the inclination angle

2.4

Initialisation of a sensor

2.5

To ensure correct functioning, the same angle must be set on the left and

right sides of a sensor.

The position of the detection field  10 is determined by the position of the

US beam in the aluminium profile.

Push the sensor as far as possible to the left or right end of the profile in

order to protect the closing edges.

The inclination angle of each sensor must be selected such that the door stops

BEFORE it comes into contact with an obstacle.

The inclination angle values specified cover 90% of all applications. For special

applications, refer to your application documents.

A sensor must always be initialised on the master module on each start-up (first initialisation).

Notes on initialisation for special backgrounds:

In the case of special backgrounds (such as a metal grating), place a cardboard on the background in order to ensure faultless initialisation (see the table in chapter 5

relating to background composition parameters).

Nature of the background:

• One of 3 setting options must be selected, depending on the composition of

the ground being used. If the red L D blinks twice and there is no object in the

sensorfield, a special background has to be set:

– Standard

– Very dark and/or reflecting ground

– Metal grating -> A base must be placed over the grating during initialisation

(the sensitivity is then fixed at >= 50 cm). This setting will switch off the

background test and –tracking function.

Synchronisation:

• Synchronisation is active in standard mode and ensures that the sensors will

continue to work faultlessly even if fields overlap.

– Caution: If a US beam (green label) or a R3 (yellow label) is used

together with an older release, synchronisation must be switched off and

overlapping prevented manually (various levels, switch off beams).

Master-initialisation using the remote control

(RegloBeam 2):

After initialisation, the sensor is ready for operation. Please check the sensor’s detection responses. If they do not meet your

requirements, you can use the sensor’s keys or the remote control to set various detailed configurations and optimise your door

system's functionality (see next chapter).

1. Both the red and green L Ds flash to show that the

initialisation procedure has been triggered. You now

have 6 seconds to leave the detection field.

2. The red L D flashes to show that initialisation is

being performed. Do not enter the detection field.

3. If the L Ds continue to flash as before, please refer

to chapter 4, Troubleshooting.

4. Once both L Ds cease to flash, initialisation

is complete.

Press the «green» key for 5 seconds to trigger the

master-initialisation procedure. Trigger the master-

initialisation only on the sensor which is connected

with the door controller.

Initialisation:

1. Press key «G»

2. Press keys F + 3 + 6 to trigger the

initialisation procedure

3. lock the remote control: F + 3 + 8

The remote control is available as an

optional accessory.

1.Press the «red» and «green» keys for 1 second, -> device located

at parameter 1, «test input».

2.Press the «red» key 3 times -> device moves to parameter 4, «sensitivity»

and indicates a value of 3 (20 cm) by flashing green 3 times

3.Press the «green» key twice -> device indicates a value of 5 (40 cm) by

flashing green 5 times.

4.Optional: xit setting mode by pressing the “red” and “green” keys

for 1 second.

1. Press key «G» on the remote control («3» lights up for the device with address 3, for

example).

2. Press key «D»; key «3» lights up, i.e. the previous value was 3 (20 cm).

3. Press key «5»; a value of 5 (40 cm) is set (key «5» lights up).

Note:

The parameterisation by remote control will be locked after 30 min without operation.

Reactivation: briefly press the green key, switch the supply on/off or enter an actication

code.

Setting using the «red» and «green» keys: Setting using the remote control:

Sensitivity:

• The sensitivity value must be selected on-site in accordance with requirements

(e.g. N 16005).

– The values specified are guide values and relate to the height of the object to be detected.

This will vary depending on the composition of the background and must be checked on-site.

Initialisation:

• The mounting height of the sensors is memorised during initialisation.

– The corresponding specified height is saved in parameter 8 using values 1 – 4 (1 = 1.4 – 1.7 m

approx., 2 = 1.7 – 2 m approx., 3 = 2.0 – 2.4 m approx., 4 = 2.4 – 3.0 m approx.).

Restoring the factory default setting:

•Press both the “red” and “green” keys for 5 seconds until the red ED flashes

rapidly, then release them.

Enhanced levels

Standard mode sets all values to their factory default settings and switches all light beams on.

Power saving mode sets all values to their factory default settings and switches light beams 2, 4

and 6 off.

although nothing has been detected

- The test input has not been activated or an incorrect version has been

activated

- Make sure that the test input has been activated

- Set the correct relay output in accordance with the door

controller (see page 3, test input))

Master initialisation does not work, the

red L D flashes 4 times - Use of AC voltage - Convert the sensors to a DC supply

Not all sensors react when carrying out

the master initialisation

- Use of AC voltage

- Connection interrupted along the ribbon cable

- Convert the sensors to a DC supply

- Insert the ribbon cable correctly or replace it

No reaction from the doors, although

detection is taking place

- Initialisation has been carried out on a sensor that is not directly

connected to the door controller or to the Y adapter

- Carry out initialisation on the sensor that is directly

connected to the door controller

The sensor functions without the cover

but not with it

- The angle of the bearing clamps has changed

- The cover is of poor quality (has coarse grooves)

- Sensitivity too low

- Check the angle of the bearing clamps

- Replace the cover

- Increase the sensitivity

The red L D flashes 4, 5, 6 or 7 times

- Use of AC voltage

- Configuration error (sensors have been swapped following master

initialisation)

- Sensors have been incorrectly initialised or not initialised at all

- Self-test failed, triggered unexpectedly
