Figure 9-7 Multiple Light Curtain Installation Configurations
9-2-3 Access to Configuration Switches
Switches to configure the F3SL system operating features are located inside the end cap of the receiver and
Exact Channel Select is programmed via a push button accessed from the front of this end cap. If it will be nec-
essary to change the configuration or Exact Channel Select program during operation, access to this cap must
be maintained. When reinstalling end caps, tighten the four slotted end cap screws in a diagonal pattern to a
torque of 7 to 9 in-lbs. (0.8 to 1 Nm)
9-2-4 Detection Zone
The F3SL system detection zone is delineated by the inside edge of the emitter and receiver endcaps. The area
outside these marks is not protected. Position the F3SL system so that it is only possible to access the danger
point through the detection zone.
9-2-5 Alignment
Physical alignment of the emitter and receiver units is easiest when the F3SL system is in the automatic start
operating mode with Exact Channel Select inactive. The units should be in the same plane and at equal height.
The Upper Most/ Lower Most Beam Indicators will light when a beam is out of alignment. See Section 6-1—Up-
per Most/ Lower Most Beam Indicators for details.
WARNING
Isolate power before removing end cap.
