P.E. BEAM AND AUTO CLOSE
16
STEP 21 - FITTING THE SAFETY PHOTO
ELECTRIC BEAM SENSOR (OPTIONAL)
Locate the Photo Electric Beam (P.E.) normally closed contact
type in a strategic location within doorway. We recommend
150mm above the floor level and as close as possible to the
door opening, inside the garage. Remove shunt from P.E
connector
(Fig. 28)
and connect the plug from the P.E. wiring
harness to P.E. connector
(Fig. 29)
. The wiring diagram is for
Model PHBE (Order Code 90214).
Make sure to align the beams correctly. Follow the manual
supplied with the Photo Electric Beam.
WARNING; When using Auto Close Mode and P.E. beams,
the doorway must be clear of all obstructions and persons
at all times. The location of the beam and manner in which
it is installed might not give safety protection at all times.
Check to make sure that the height of the beam and type
used give maximum protection possible.
STEP 22 - SETTING AUTO CLOSE TIME
IMPORTANT NOTICE: IT IS COMPULSORY TO
INSTALL A PHOTO ELECTRIC BEAM BEFORE USING
THE AUTO CLOSE MODE.
The Auto Close timer will only start after the Photo Electric
Beams (P.E.) path is broken and the auto close time has been
set. If the P.E. path is not broken the door will remain open until
the path is broken. If the door opener incurs an obstruction (not
from the P.E.) while closing the door will re-open and not auto
close until the path of the P.E. beam is broken again.
1.
Press and hold the Auto Close Time button
(Fig. 30)
.
2.
While holding the Auto Close Time button, press the Open
button
(Fig. 30)
. Each press of this button will add five seconds
to the auto close delay time.
3.
To decrease the delay time follow Step 1 and press the Close
button. Each press will deduct five seconds from the auto close
time.
4.
Press the O/S/C button
(Fig. 30)
or transmitter to open the
door. When the door is fully opened the Open Limit green LED
will flash to indicate that the auto close mode is in operation.
Break the path of the P.E. Beam momentarily, the door will
close after the set auto-close time has elapsed.
23. RE-INITIALISING THE OPENER
To re-initialise the opener press and hold the Reset Button
(Fig. 30)
until the open limit LED illuminates. The door will
start to move and re-calculate force margins. The initialisation
is complete and the door is ready for use when the door has
completed a full open and close cycle.
