Condition
The two sensing conditions may be presented in either order. The condition
presented first is the condition for which the output will energize (the “Output
ON” target).
Sensitivity is automatically set (and optimized) when teaching the sensor the
ON and OFF conditions. When the push button is clicked, the sensor samples
each sensing condition and registers it into memory. After the second sensing
condition is registered, the MINI-BEAM Expert automatically sets the sensitivity
to the optimum value for the application, and then returns to RUN mode.

1. Access TEACH mode.
Method
Action
Result
Via push button
Press and hold push button until the bi-color (green/
red) indicator begins to flash red, or turns OFF.
Push button method only: The amber LED is on. The
red LED pulses to indicate relative received signal
strength. The sensor is ready for the output ON
condition.
Via remote line
No action required; sensor is ready for 1st sensing
condition.
2. Teach the first sensing condition.
Method
Action
Result
Via push button
Present the first sensing condition and click the push
button.
The amber LED is off. The red LED pulses to indicate
relative signal strength. The sensor registers the
output ON condition and is ready for the output OFF
condition.
Via remote line
Present the first sensing condition and single-pulse the
remote line.
3. Teach the second sensing condition and return to RUN mode.
Method
Action
Result
Via push
button
Present the second sensing condition
and click the push button.
If the teach is accepted the green LED is on (or flashes if the signal is
close to the switching threshold) and the amber LED is off until the
sensing condition changes; the sensor registers the output OFF
condition, positions the threshold, and returns to RUN mode.
If the teach is not accepted, the amber LED is on and the red LED pulses
to indicate the relative received signal strength. The sensor returns to its
wait state and is ready for the first sensing condition.
Via remote line Present the second sensing condition
and single-pulse the remote line.
NOTE: The sensor returns to RUN mode if the first TEACH condition is not registered within 90 seconds. TEACH mode may be
cancelled before either the first or second condition by holding the push button depressed for more than two seconds.
Enabling or Disabling the Push Button
In addition to its programming function, the remote line may be used to disable the push buttons for security. Disabling
the push buttons prevents undesired tampering with the sensor configuration settings.
1. Connect the sensor’s gray wire.
2. Four-pulse the remote line to enable or disable the push button.
The sensor toggles between enable and disable settings and returns to RUN mode.
