WARNING:  Disable the zone or system before applying power 

to the beam detector to prevent unwanted alarms. 
When applying power to the beam detector before 
the alignment procedure has been completed the 
detector may enter alarm or trouble.

Installation / Alignment

Reference  Figures  10  through  14  for  installation,  alignment, 
and maintenance.

The  alignment  of  the  BEAM1224A/BEAM1224SA  is  divided 
into  four  steps:  coarse  alignment,  fine  adjustment,  final  gain 
adjustment,  and  final  verification.  It  is  necessary  for  all  four 
steps to be executed properly to ensure proper alignment of the 
product. If the detector and reflector are mounted per Mounting 
Locations and Mounting Instructions sections of this manual and 

the alignment procedures are executed properly, false alarms and 
nuisance trouble signals will be minimized.

Pre-Alignment Checklist

•   Insure  that  both  the  detector  and  reflector  are  mounted 

securely to stable surfaces.

•   Insure that all wiring is correct.
•   Insure  that  terminal  blocks  are  fully  seated  into  their 

receptacles on the detector.
