c. Repeat steps (a) and (b) to assemble the Safety Beam Receiver (RX).
d. Mount the receiver on the side of the doorway in shade and the
transmitter on the other side in line with the receiver. The mounting
surface should be rigid. Affix with a minimum of four (4) screws
(not supplied).
10.2 Mounting the Bracket
The transmitter and receiver need to be placed in line of sight, with the
beam 100mm above the ground level (as per AS/NZS 60335-2-95:2012
Amendment 2:2018). This can be achieved by ensuring the bottom of the
receiver and transmitter are 65mm above ground level. They should also
be placed as close as possible to the door opening with the receiver (RX) in
shade and the transmitter (TX) in sun or shade.
10.3 Connect the Safety Beams
Refer to the Safety Beam installation manual inside the kit for wiring
diagrams, battery installation and how to connect the specific safety beam.
WARNING! The Opener must be fitted with Safety Beams if:
• the closing force at the bottom edge of the door exceeds 400N (40kg) and/or;
• the opener has a smart device fitted to operate the door, when not in line-of-sight.
