The battery life can vary depending on the charge of the
battery used, its type and installation/environmental conditions.
The pair of self-aligning photocells, XP15 W, is composed
of an infrared transmitter and receiver synchronised to four
selectable channels.
The XP15 W photocell is an auxiliary safety device.
Darkening the light beam produces a change of state
of the receiver, which sends the signal of the photocell
involved by means of a relay contact.
The transmitter of the pair is powered by a battery but it
can also be powered from the mains supply.
Selection of the transmission channel permits up to 4 pairs
of XP15 W photocells to be installed on the same unit,
eliminating the risk of interference between one pair and
another
.
2. DIMENSIONS
3. INSTALLATION
For correct operation, the positions of the Receiver and
Transmitter should be aligned.
The Receiver of the XP15 W pair of photocells can be
installed in two possible ways:
- On wall with the sheath walled in (Fig. 2).
- On wall with an external tube/sheath (Fig. 3).
•Carry out the preparations for the electrical connections.
•Fix the body of the receiver using the appropriate screws
and rawlplugs.
The Transmitter and Receiver are the same size and are
shown in Figure 1.
The Transmitter of the XP15 W pair of photocells can be
powered by an internal battery (Fig. 4) or can also be
powered from the mains supply.
The battery-powered Transmitter only requires fixing, either
on wall or column.
If the Transmitter is powered from the mains supply, follow
the same types of installation indicated in figures 2 and
3.
4. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Make the electrical connections to the terminal boards of
the receiver as indicated in Fig. 5.
The power supply terminals of the Receiver can
be connected to a 12 or 24 Volt supply, either
direct (DC) or alternating current ( ~ ).
If it is intended to perform the FAIL SAFE check
with a battery-powered Transmitter, connect
the FAIL SAFE (-TX FSW) terminal of the FAAC
control boards to the MINUS (
_
) terminal
of the photocell Receiver.
If the Transmitter is mains powered, follow the indications in
Fig. 6.
The power supply terminals of the Transmitter
can be connected to a 12 or 24 Volt source,
either direct (DC) or alternating ( ~ )
current.
5. START-UP
Before closing the pair of photocells with their respective
closing plugs, it is indispensable to select the transmission
channel and check its functioning through the indicator
LEDs located on the Receiver.
SELECTION OF THE TRANSMISSION CHANNEL
Power up the photocells and select the transmission
channel BY PRESSING BUTTON P1 AND KEEPING IT PRESSED
FOR 5 SECONDS (fig. 7).
At the end of the 5 seconds, the DL2 LED in figure 7 will
flash the number of times corresponding to the channel
set, then switching itself off for 1 second before repeating
the process. After completing 3 indications of the channel
set, the procedure terminates and the channel is memory
stored.
Whilst this is displaying, it is possible to change the
transmission channel: by pressing button P1, the four
channels are selected in succession.
Check the number of flashes of the DL2 LED to determine
which channel has been selected:
1 flash = Channel 1
2 flashes = Channel 2
3 flashes = Channel 3
4 flashes = Channel 4
Set the same channel on both receiver and
transmitter
.
On switching on the Transmitter and the Receiver, the
respective DL2 LEDs will light up for 1 second.
