6. MECHANICAL ADJUSTMENTS
Once all installation, wiring, and cabling procedures have been completed, mechanical adjustments can be made. Please note that further
adjustments may be required after powering and walk-testing the detection field.
1.
Aside from placement on the header, the only mechanical adjustment that may be made to the sensor is the angle adjustment. The
Bodyguard-T is factory pre-set to the 5º position but may be reduced to a 0º position or increased to a 10º position. The greater the angle,
the
farther
from
the
door
the
pattern
will
be.
The
0º
angle
should
only
be
used
when
the
Bodyguard-T is mounted to a Bodymount block or to a soffit above the door that extends out from the face of the safety side of the door. In
this case, the 0º setting would improve the location of the detection field across the threshold area of the doorway. It is recommended that
for most applications, the unit be powered and walk-tested at the pre-set 5º angle. After walk-testing, if the detection field needs to be changed,
proceed with changes to the angle setting, as shown below.
2.
To change the angle setting, the endcaps, lenses, and center eye shield must be removed (see MECHANICAL INSTALLATION –
PREPARATION). The terminal block must also be removed if it has been wired. Once removed, release the white clips, and rotate outward
to remove the PCB.
3.
Once the PCB is completely removed from the housing, the angle position may be changed. There are two clips per sensor, and the angle
must match for each clip on the same PCB. See positions below.
4.
Slide the left and right lens back into place and proceed with power-up procedures. Leave the endcaps off until all final adjustments have
been
made.
