TÜV Requirements in 
Germany 

 

 

To be TÜV compliant for the German market, please make sure to adjust the sensor as follows: 

 

Number of IR curtains                             

 

Max. duration of presence detection     

1 or higher (min. 1minute) 

 

External Monitoring Enabled 

1 (ON) 

 

Sensitivity (size of detection field) 

Min. 1.5m depth 

 

 

IR curtain immunity 

1 to 3 

 

 

   

High mounting height 

(>3m) 

 

If the sensor is installed higher than 3m above the floor, make sure to use the narrow prism  
(see chapter “3 Installation” § 6). Also, set the sensor to “High Mounting”: 

 

 

or 

 

 

Installation Configuration  

High Mounting Height 

 

 

   

Rain/Snow 

 

If the sensor is exposed to rain or snow, use the URC (Universal Rain protection Cover) 

 

Set the sensor to presetting 3 or 4 to increase the immunity of the sensor. You can reduce the influence of rain and snow 
even more when selecting the RAIN or SNOW mode for the IR curtain immunity: 

 

  RAIN mode  

 

 

 

SNOW mode 

 

 

 

SNOW mode enhanced 

 

 

 

   

Setup 

 

 

  Assisted Setup (~14sec) 

Sensor checks the influence of the door leaves to the IR 
curtains (performs a door open/door close cycle) 

 

 

Standard Setup (~4sec) 

Sensor only learns its environment 

After adjusting the sensor for the first time, it is recommended to launch an “Assisted Setup”. Refer to chapter “3 
Installation” § 8.2 for more information about the LED display) 
If the IR sensor module “sees” the door movement, move the curtains out of the door leaves. 

 

   

Access Code 

 

The access code is recommended to set sensors close to each other with remote control. The access code can be 
composed of 1 to 4 digits (factory values or no access code : 0 or 0000). No code is required to unlock during the first minute 
after powering.  

 

   

Overlapping  
IR-curtains 

 

Overlapping IR-curtains from sensors installed side-by-side may cause disturbances due to crosstalk (interferences). 
Select different frequencies on each sensor to avoid crosstalk (see setting "Installation configuration" on p.5). 
Attention: avoid curtains that are overlapping by more than 30cm (at 2,2m mounting height, using the wide prism). 

 

   

No monitoring on IR 
curtain 

 

If no monitoring of the IR sensor module is required, but the product you use has the monitoring enabled by default, set the
“Monitoring” parameter to “0”: 

 

  External Monitoring Enabled 

0 (= OFF) 

 

 

   

Only one single 

Impulse input on door 
controller 

 

If your door controller has only one single impulse input for motion impulse (open the door) and no safety input (keep the 
door open), use the “Safety Output Redirection” to transfer the safety detection (IR sensor module) to the motion impulse 
output and connect only the motion output to your door controller: 

 

  Safety Output Redirection 

1 (= transfer presence detection to the motion output) 

 

 

   

PULSE monitoring of 

safety sensor (beams) 

 

If your door controller monitors its safety sensors using PULSE (ex. RECORD, ATS, DORMA ES-90 EM2/EM3), make 
sure you have a PULSE compatible product (ACTIV8 THREE PULSE).  

 

   

Check the wiring 

  Push the left push button to release the outputs. The door should close and the LED should switch off.
