After installing the barrier, make sure that it is perfectly closed with the watertight
covers supplied.
Use the cable glands supplied to insert the cable in the lower section.
Make sure that the path between the sensors is free and that there are no obstacles
that could affect the communication between the optical groups of the transmitters
and receivers (e.g. branches, plants, leaves, etc. that could interfere with the beams).
Verify that the optics of the transmitter and receiver units are not
exposed to direct sunlight at dawn and sunset.
It is usually advisable to reverse the transmitters and receivers when installing the barriers
overlapped as this could cause the transmitters to interfere with several receivers
(see page 6).
Do not use switching power supplies that might cause electrical disturbances .
