Testable surface sensor for moving
operation on automatic door systems
Always consider the safety functions of your application as a whole, never
just in relation to one individual section of the system.
The sensor may only be operated in the aluminium profile provided for this purpose.
Parts of the sensor may become hot during operation.
The installer is responsible for carrying out a risk assessment and installing the
sensor and the door system correctly.

2.3 Mounting the optical unit
1. If the profile does not have any mounting holes, make
some in the rear of the profile and mount it so that it is hori-
zontal (use a spirit level). Important: The aluminium profile
must lay flat against the mounting surface.
2. If the front cover  has been supplied by metre
and needs to be cut to size, lay it on a flat, clean
surface and cut it using a fine tooth hacksaw,
a metal cutter or a rotary tool (with an appro-
priate attachment), without applying any pressure.
To attach the cover following start-up: 1. remove
protective foil 2. Insert the cover , 3. Click the
cover into place.



3. Affix the end caps after attaching the cover.
Affix the end caps  with alignment pins
on the profile side. Optional: Affix the end
caps with screws for reinforced fixation.
Therefore pierce through the drill-hole.
Sensor b must be rotated by 180° and
mounted.

The buttons red and green on the optical unit must be
mounted onto the corresponding door edge.
Check the function of your entire door system in relation to the applicable safety standards (e.g. N 16005) and U regulations.
Cable to door controller
Notes on wiring:
Wiring according to the requirement of the door system
1. Pull screw terminal out of the sensor to be connected to the door controller
(= master sensor).
2. Perform wiring in accordance with the door controller specifications.
3. Once the plug terminal has been wired, re-insert it into the sensor.
Connection diagram for individual sensors
Attention! Connection scheme is illustrated powered off
In standard relay is powered (passive)
NC = Use connection 5 (NO)
If AC voltage is supplied, only single sensor operation is possible and it is
not allowed to cascade the sensors by ribbon cable. Always use ferrules
when wiring (recommended core cross-section 0.25 mm2).
For a both-sided protection of the door, it is recommended to us the optional
Y-Adapter (288879).
Master/slave wiring
Master/slave wiring using enclosed ribbon cable. A maximum of 3 additional
slave modules can be added in this way.

To ensure correct functioning, the same angle must be set on the left and
right sides of a sensor.
The position of the detection field  10 is determined by the position of the
US beam in the aluminium profile.
Push the sensor as far as possible to the left or right end of the profile in
order to protect the closing edges.
The inclination angle of each sensor must be selected such that the door stops
BEFORE it comes into contact with an obstacle.
The inclination angle values specified cover 90% of all applications. For special
applications, refer to your application documents.

A sensor must always be initialised on the master module on each start-up (first initialisation).
Notes on initialisation for special backgrounds:
In the case of special backgrounds (such as a metal grating), place a cardboard on the background in order to ensure faultless initialisation (see the table in chapter 5
relating to background composition parameters).
Nature of the background:
• One of 3 setting options must be selected, depending on the composition of
the ground being used. If the red L D blinks twice and there is no object in the
sensorfield, a special background has to be set:
– Standard
– Very dark and/or reflecting ground
– Metal grating -> A base must be placed over the grating during initialisation
(the sensitivity is then fixed at >= 50 cm). This setting will switch off the
background test and –tracking function.
Synchronisation:
• Synchronisation is active in standard mode and ensures that the sensors will
continue to work faultlessly even if fields overlap.
– Caution: If a US beam (green label) or a R3 (yellow label) is used
together with an older release, synchronisation must be switched off and
overlapping prevented manually (various levels, switch off beams).

Master-initialisation using the remote control
(RegloBeam 2):
After initialisation, the sensor is ready for operation. Please check the sensor’s detection responses. If they do not meet your
requirements, you can use the sensor’s keys or the remote control to set various detailed configurations and optimise your door
system's functionality (see next chapter).
1. Both the red and green L Ds flash to show that the
initialisation procedure has been triggered. You now
have 6 seconds to leave the detection field.
2. The red L D flashes to show that initialisation is
being performed. Do not enter the detection field.
3. If the L Ds continue to flash as before, please refer
to chapter 4, Troubleshooting.
4. Once both L Ds cease to flash, initialisation
is complete.
Press the «green» key for 5 seconds to trigger the
master-initialisation procedure. Trigger the master-
initialisation only on the sensor which is connected
with the door controller.
Initialisation:
1. Press key «G»
2. Press keys F + 3 + 6 to trigger the
initialisation procedure
3. lock the remote control: F + 3 + 8
The remote control is available as an
optional accessory.
1.Press the «red» and «green» keys for 1 second, -> device located
at parameter 1, «test input».
2.Press the «red» key 3 times -> device moves to parameter 4, «sensitivity»
and indicates a value of 3 (20 cm) by flashing green 3 times
3.Press the «green» key twice -> device indicates a value of 5 (40 cm) by
flashing green 5 times.
4.Optional: xit setting mode by pressing the “red” and “green” keys
for 1 second.
1. Press key «G» on the remote control («3» lights up for the device with address 3, for
example).
2. Press key «D»; key «3» lights up, i.e. the previous value was 3 (20 cm).
3. Press key «5»; a value of 5 (40 cm) is set (key «5» lights up).
Note:
The parameterisation by remote control will be locked after 30 min without operation.
Reactivation: briefly press the green key, switch the supply on/off or enter an actication
code.
Setting using the «red» and «green» keys: Setting using the remote control:
Sensitivity:
• The sensitivity value must be selected on-site in accordance with requirements
(e.g. N 16005).
– The values specified are guide values and relate to the height of the object to be detected.
This will vary depending on the composition of the background and must be checked on-site.
Initialisation:
• The mounting height of the sensors is memorised during initialisation.
– The corresponding specified height is saved in parameter 8 using values 1 – 4 (1 = 1.4 – 1.7 m
approx., 2 = 1.7 – 2 m approx., 3 = 2.0 – 2.4 m approx., 4 = 2.4 – 3.0 m approx.).
Restoring the factory default setting:
•Press both the “red” and “green” keys for 5 seconds until the red ED flashes
rapidly, then release them.
Enhanced levels
Standard mode sets all values to their factory default settings and switches all light beams on.
Power saving mode sets all values to their factory default settings and switches light beams 2, 4
and 6 off.

Symptom Possible cause Remedy
The red L D flashes 8 times after
initialisation
- The detection field was not empty during initialisation
- The bearing clamps are not mounted correctly in the profile
- The bearing clamps are set to different angles on the same sensor
- Reflecting background or metal grating
- Carry out the initialisation again
- Click the bearing clamps into the profile correctly
- Set the bearing clamps to the same angle
- Select a different background
The red L D flashes continuously - Faulty ribbon cable - Replace the ribbon cable
The red L D flashes twice - Dark or reflecting ground
- Object in the detection field (no fault) - Set parameter 7 to «dark / reflecting»
The door does not open or close
although nothing has been detected
- The test input has not been activated or an incorrect version has been
activated
- Make sure that the test input has been activated
- Set the correct relay output in accordance with the door
controller (see page 3, test input))
Master initialisation does not work, the
red L D flashes 4 times - Use of AC voltage - Convert the sensors to a DC supply
Not all sensors react when carrying out
the master initialisation
- Use of AC voltage
- Connection interrupted along the ribbon cable
- Convert the sensors to a DC supply
- Insert the ribbon cable correctly or replace it
No reaction from the doors, although
detection is taking place
- Initialisation has been carried out on a sensor that is not directly
connected to the door controller or to the Y adapter
- Carry out initialisation on the sensor that is directly
connected to the door controller
The sensor functions without the cover
but not with it
- The angle of the bearing clamps has changed
- The cover is of poor quality (has coarse grooves)
- Sensitivity too low
- Check the angle of the bearing clamps
- Replace the cover
- Increase the sensitivity
The red L D flashes 4, 5, 6 or 7 times
- Use of AC voltage
- Configuration error (sensors have been swapped following master
initialisation)
- Sensors have been incorrectly initialised or not initialised at all
- Self-test failed, triggered unexpectedly
- Convert the sensors to a DC supply
- Carry out the initialisation again
- Carry out initialisation on the master (sensor on the door
controller)
- Carry out the initialisation again
Both L DS (red and green) are lit
permanently
- Supply voltage is not stable enough
- Supply voltage is too low
- Voltage break
- Isolate the sensor from the supply
- Check the power supply
- Switch the supply on again
Detection sometimes takes place whilst
the door panels are moving
- If the floor is very uneven and the door moves, this may lead to
detection
- Incorrect background parameters have been selected
- Reduce the sensitivity
- Select the correct background parameters
- Set a different angle (ensure safety requirements are met)
Incomprehensible response to a
cascade of several devices, red L D
flashes once
- Various sensor releases have been used
(release 2, release 3 and US beam sensors)
- Only use US beam and/or release 3 sensors
- For US beam or release 3 sensors, switch synchronisa-
tion off and manually prevent any overlap
The red L D flashes 10 times - Loss of power during parameterisation (memory error) - Carry out initialisation on the master (sensor on the door
controller)
The green L D on the slave module
lights up permanently - The master is in standby mode and the slave is not. Only the slave was reactivated.
- Reactivate master using door activation
- Carry out initialisation on master
(sensor on door controller)
- Check test input (parameter 1)
- Activate synchr. on all sensors (parameter 9)
- Replace ribbon cable if necessary
