Photo Sensor Notes:
1. Use care to reduce the risk of
nuisance tripping, such as
when a vehicle trips the
sensor while the gate is still
moving.
2. One or more non-contact
sensors shall be located
where a risk of entrapment or
obstruction exists, such as the
perimeter reachable by a
moving gate or barrier. Use
caution when installing non-
contact sensors since some
devices only cover a select
area. For example, a photo
beam will not cover the full
height of a gate/fence area.
Refer to the diagram below.
3.
Use only UL325 compliant
devices and follow all installation
guidelines set forth by the
manufacturer.
Photo Close Input:
1. Input is only active during close cycle.
2. An input during the close cycle will stop the gate.
3. The gate will remain stopped until the input is cleared.
4. When the Photo Close is cleared, the gate will continue to
close.
Photo Open Input:
1. Input is only active during open cycle.
2. An input during open cycle will stop the gate.
3. The gate will remain stopped until the input is cleared.
4. When the Photo Open is cleared, the gate will continue to open.
WARNING: DO NOT INSTALL this product unless all safety standards are followed and
all entrapment and pinch points have been eliminated.
