 MOUNTING  YOUR  SENSORS

Before you mount, choose a mounting location:
• 

The recommended mounting height is 3 feet (0.9 m). This will help avoid false alerts from 
small animals crossing under the beam but still detect people and vehicles.

• 

The sensors can be mounted up to 300 ft. (91.4 m) apart. 

• 

Mount the sensors on a stable surface. Do not install where trees or other objects can block 
the beam. 

Circular post mounting

1.  Attach the right-angle bracket to the cross bracket using two M4 nuts and two M4 × 12 mm 

bolts. Repeat for all brackets.

2.  Attach a right-angle bracket to the top and bottom of each sensor unit using four M5 nuts 

and four M5 × 18 mm bolts.

3.  Mount sensor unit B fi rst, attaching it to a post with two U-shaped brackets, four M5 nuts, 

and four M5 × 27 mm bolts. Tighten securely, making sure that the sensor is level and the IR 
windows are facing toward where you will mount sensor unit A.

Note:

 If the U-shaped bracket doesn’t fi t your post, use a vise to bend it to the correct shape.

4.  Mount sensor unit A to a post with two U-shaped brackets, four M5 nuts, and four                 

M5 × 27 mm bolts. Tighten securely, making sure that the sensor is level and that the IR 
windows are facing toward sensor unit B.

Note:

 When the sensor units align, sensor unit A’s indicator light blinks.
