Sensor Programming

1.  Mount the sensor securely. Align the sensor with the background target, making the 

face of the Sensor as parallel as possible to the background target.

   In programming mode (only after the TEACH push button is pressed), the red Signal 

LED will flash faster as the alignment improves; solid ON is best. If the red Signal LED 

does not flash, then the background target is not sufficient and a different target must 

be used, such as a metal plate or a corner cube reflector.

2.  Verify that the area between the sensor and the background is clear, and follow the 

programming procedure in the table below.

General Notes on Programming

•   Once the sensor enters TEACH mode, it will default to the previous settings and exit 

TEACH mode after one minute.

•   To exit TEACH mode and return to the previous settings, push and hold the TEACH 

push button (or pulse the remote line) for more than two seconds.
