Acusensor 3
____________________________________________________________________________________________
3. Customized Settings
The following information describes how to change the settings for depth
of coverage, width of coverage, sensitivity and memory. Any changes to
these settings that are made on site by the installer are the responsibility
of the installer. Proper system operation must be verified according to
ANSI Standard 156.10 and 156.19 or any local codes that apply to door
operation.
a) Setting up for Depth Coverage
There are three ways to adjust the depth coverage: row settings (dip
switches 7 and 8), base angle, and adjustment of the depth screw.
(See figures 5,6,7 on following page)
As an Activation Sensor
When the Acusensor 3 is intended to be used as a door activating
device, the depth of coverage should comply with ANSI requirements.
When other sensors are being used for the activation function, it may be
desirable (but not necessarily required) to reduce the sensing coverage
area of the Acusensor 3. Adequate threshold coverage might be achieved
by setting the various area settings. Coverage should always be checked
to be sure it is adequate. For best detection of slow moving pedestrians or
objects, the sensitivity option should be on Medium or High.
The width and depth of coverage for an actual installation may vary.
This is typically the result of:
1.
A variance in mounting height
2.
Normal manufacturing and component tolerances
3.
Variances in field measurements, procedures and
conditions from ANSI standards.
4.
Use of spacers for mounting
