BODYGUARD III-C
USER’S GUIDE
PRESENCE SENSOR
The BEA Bodyguard III Presence Sensor (10BODYGUARDIII) is a self-monitored ready overhead-mounted diffused active
infrared sensing device that provides detection for the triggering of automatic swing door safety functions. This sensor is
designed for use with all of BEA’s LO-21 modules, as well as the EDPS system using the DP-HUB. When used with BEA’s
lockout devices, the sensor is programmed to allow two different fields of detection - one for detection when the door is in
the fully closed position and the other for detection when the door is fully open. While the door is in the fully open position,
the Bodyguard extends its coverage back through the threshold area of the doorway, to provide coverage that will overlap
with BEA’s motion sensors. As with all of BEA’s programmable sensing devices, full adjustability is achieved with the use of
BEA’s hand-held remote control unit. This allows alteration of all of the available functions as well as for inquiry of existing
settings. Should the need arise; the Bodyguard may also be tuned by means of two sensor-mounted buttons contained on
the PC Board within the unit. With these two buttons, the Bodyguard’s field of detection can be altered without the use of the
hand-held remote. If a complete door-mounted sensor (SuperScan) system is not used in addition to the Bodyguard, BEA,
Inc. recommends the use of a lockout safety beam to allow safety signaling if the zone is entered during a door closing
cycle.
