Adjust protective beams
The transmitter and receiver should be aligned to each other so that they are at the same height in reference
to each other and the lowest beam is at the correct height above the floor.
The alignment of the transmitter can be facilitated with the aid of a reflector. The reflector is arranged in front
of the receiver's receiver optics. When the system is turned on, detection will then only operate from the
transmitter in the direction of the reflector. The transmitter should be adjusted so that you can see the red
transmitter light. The transmitter should be fastened in place. Now rotate the receiver so that the functional
display indicates steady light.
If the red transmitter light cannot be properly observed (for example in the case of great detection ranges)
a laser alignment aid should be used .
Layout with adjustable mirror
Adjustable mirrors are used for deflection away from protective beams and fields for securing them on mul-
tiple sides with only one transmitter/receiver pair. Each mirror reduces the maximum detection range by a
maximum of 15%.
The mirror should be set up so that light beams coming from the transmitter are deflected to the receiver. If
the deflection of the protective field is at a right angle, the mirror should be at an angle of 45°.
Once the layout is aligned, you should check to make certain that all components are positioned vertically
at the same level. To align the mirror roughly, turn the mirror so that you can see the receiver in the mirror
if you look out from the transmitter in the direction of the mirror.
The alignment can be facilitated by using a laser alignment aid.
Make certain that the surfaces of the mirror are clean. Use cleaning materials that will not scratch and lint-
free cloths for cleaning.
