Photo Eye Installation
MX3636-01 Rev. D
85
Configuration
Configure photo eyes attached to gate operators manufactured in 2016 or beyond according to
HySecurity Sensors: Smart Touch
on page 111.
NOTE:
HySecurity gate operators, manufactured with 2016 (or later) in the serial number, require Normally Closed output sensors.
Some manufacturers label an output as N.O. (normally open), when it is actually an N.C. (normally closed) contact. Review
Entrapment Protection Sensors monitored by HySecurity Gate Operators
on page iii.
If your gate operator is manufactured prior to 2016 and your gate operator is set to Build
Year 1, consider the following:
NOTE:
To check the Build Year for your gate operator, press the Menu button. The gate status scroll
reveals the Build Year. “Build Year Pre-2016” means the gate operator is configured for Build Year 1.
1. If the photo eye has an internal switch for setting Light Operate versus Dark
Operate, select Light Operate.
2. If the photo eye has a relay output and has both N.O. and N.C. terminals, some
experimentation may be required to determine the proper connection because,
when its in the Light Operate mode, the output relay is normally energized and
releases when the beam is blocked.
3. If the photo eye has a solid-state output, your must choose a sinking-type
connection.
Photo Eye Connections: Smart Touch & Smart DC Controllers
CAUTION
All external entrapment protection sensors must be NC sensor outputs and wired to the SENSOR COM terminal
for monitoring and powering purposes. The sensor becomes actively powered when the gate operator’s motor
runs.
Connect the four wires to the receiver and two wires to the emitter according to the following procedure.
A. Supply power to the sensor.
1. Obtain the +24 Volt source power at one of the three spade-terminals on the STC Power Supply Board.
2. Obtain the 24 Volt Common from SENSOR COM on the Controller.
B. Wire connection so the controller recognizes the sensor device.
3. Obtain the COM from the STC Power Supply Board.
4. Connect the N.C. output to SENSOR 1, 2, or 3.
5.
Configure the Installer Menu according to your site sensor set up. Refer to
on page 33.
NOTE:
Jumper between terminals on Photo Eye sensor so you don’t need to pull a fourth wire to the Controller terminal. For
examples of wiring diagrams, refer to
. To test Photo Eye, refer to
Photo Eye Function
If the gate is stationary, a tripped photo eye will prevent the gate from starting in either direction. If tripped
while in motion, the standard function is to pause the gate motion and then automatically restart again if the
photo eye is clear within five seconds. Optional settings exist in the Installer Menu. Refer to Eye Close Logic
and Eye Open Logic (EC and EO) in the
on page 46 for more information.
