2. Set-up for 3D Controllers
To configure 3D Panachrome Controller carry out the following steps:
1.
Fit the Panachrome 3D detectors [Models C3510 or
C3540].
2.
All 3D controllers are factory set for: 3D activates ‘as
Door Closing’ on ‘High Sensitivity’.
3.
Select the 3D Operating Mode using switches 1 & 2 if
necessary [See Table 2 below].
4.
Adjust the 3D Sensitivity using switches 3 & 4 if
necessary [See Table 3 below].
5.
Note: For a C3850 SW5/8 will be switched to ‘ON’
3. 3D Operating Modes
As doors close - Switches 1&2 are both OFF
3D proximity detection will be activated as the doors begin to close. The system will allow up to three consecutive triggers on the 3D.
After this, the 3D will be turned off leaving only the light curtain detection. If the light curtain is broken then three further 3D triggers are
enabled.
3D Timeout (20 seconds) - Switch 1 ON and Switch 2 OFF
In this mode of operation the 3D proximity detection is activated when the doors have reached their fully opened position. As long as
the 3D detection zone is clear the doors will be closed normally by the door operator. However, if someone is inside the 3D detection
zone then the doors will be held open i.e. the door operator relay is de-energised and a timer is started. If the timer expires the doors
are allowed to close with an intermittent beep sounding as a warning. This beep will occur regardless of the ‘TONE’ switch position. If
the 3D zone becomes clear then the timer is reset and the door operator relay is re-energised allowing the doors to close.
If the light curtain is broken at any time, the timer will then be reset and the door operator relay is de-energised which allows the doors
to re-open. The 3D timer is set at 20 seconds internally.
At 800mm (2’ 8”) - Switch 1 OFF & Switch 2 ON
This mode of 3D operation is similar to ‘As Doors Close’ but the 3D will only become active when the doors are closing and have
reached a separation of 800mm (2’ 8”). This mode is usually for wider doors to restrict the range of 3D detection into the landing.
3D Timeout (10 seconds) - Switch 1 & 2 ON
The operation is the same as in Section above. However, the 3D is set at 10 seconds internally.
3D Sensitivity Adjustment - Switch 3 & 4
In most cases the 3D’s sensitivity will not require adjustment. However, it may need to be adjusted to overcome spurious reflections
which cause erratic 3D triggering. The sensitivity should first be set to the highest level i.e. level 1. If erratic 3D triggers are experienced
then select the next lower level of sensitivity. Continue lowering the sensitivity until the unit operates without any erratic 3D triggers.
