For synchronized applications or stacked 
sets of transmitters and receivers, 

install 

interruption sheets on all optical 
modules

 except the pair to be aligned. 

10.

 

Do one of the fine alignments. Refer to 

Table 9

 on 

page 13 to determine which procedure to use. 

 

 

 

For the following procedures, make sure 
that all optical modules are covered with 
interruption sheets, except the pair to be 
aligned. 

Remove the interruption sheets and close 
the covers when the alignment is complete. 

 

4.2.3 Voltmeter 

Alignment 

1.

 

Insert voltmeter leads into the alignment check 
terminals on the receiver panel. Refer to 

Figure 3

 

on page 3 

2.

 

Set the voltmeter scale to 10.0 VDC. 

3.

 

Use a screwdriver to adjust horizontal and vertical 
adjustment screws on the transmitter and the 
receiver. Refer to 

Figure 21

 on page 14.  

4.

 

Check the voltage reading and continue to adjust 
the adjustment screws as necessary. In an ideal 
environment, the voltmeter value should be  
3.0 VDC or higher. (The maximum voltage is 3.75 
VDC.) 

5.

 

When the best voltage is achieved, the optical 
modules are aligned. 

6.

 

Repeat the procedure for the other optical module 
pair. 

 

 

4.2.4 

Level LED Alignment 

1.

 

Look at the Level Meter on the receiver. Refer to 

Figure 23.

 When you begin this procedure the 

LEDs are off. 

2.

 

Use a screwdriver to adjust the optical modules. 
Adjust the horizontal and vertical adjustment 
screws as necessary. Refer to 

Figure 21

3.

 

As more beam energy is received, each LED turns 
on, flashes quickly, flashes slowly, and then turns 
off. 

4.

 

Continue fine tuning until the LEDs turn off. 

 

If outdoors, the alignment is complete when all 
LEDs are off. 

 

If indoors, the alignment is complete when the 
lower two LEDs are off. 

5.

 

Repeat the procedure for the other optical module 
pair. 

4.2.5 Sound 

Alignment 

1.

 

Set DIP Switch 6 on the receiver to ON. Refer to 

Figure 23.

 

2.

 

Use a screwdriver to adjust the optical modules. 
Adjust the horizontal and vertical adjustment 
screws as necessary. Refer to 

Figure 21

3.

 

As more beam energy is received, the sound pitch 
changes from low to high and from a continuous 
tone to a two beat sound. 

4.

 

Continue fine tuning until the buzzer is a two-beat 
sound. 

5.

 

After the beams are aligned, set DIP Switch 6 to 
OFF. 

6.

 

Repeat the procedure for the other optical module 
pair.
