Miller Edge MLC-K36 User manual

2-1. Unpack the tube and identify which stick is the Emitter (2
wires) and which is the Receiver (4 wires). The Receiver
typically mounts on the same side as the operator.
2-2. Identify the preferred location, usually close to the door
tracks on the inside of the door opening.
2-3. Attach the brackets to any available mounting points, using
the screws provided or other appropriate hardware. One
bracket should go approximately 6” below the top and another
6”above the bottom of the sticks. For the 6-foot sticks, an
additional bracket should be added in the middle.
2-4. Make sure the brackets are all in-line. The functional
operating distance between Emitter and Receiver is
between 6 feet and 33 feet.
2-5. Press the sticks into the brackets. The flat surface should
be facing across the door opening so that the sticks are
pointing at each other and the bottoms are resting on the floor.
2-6. Wire the sticks to the operator. A total of six (6) wires need to
connect at the operator, 2 run from the Emitter and 4 from the
Receiver. The black and red wires from both sticks will connect
to the accessory power (usually 24VAC or 12VDC). The
Green and White wires will connect to the photo-eye input (ex:
LMEP & Common). Refer to the electrical connection diagram.
2-7. ote that only one device can be connected to the photo-eye
input on the operator.
2-8. Confirm that the Green LED is O at the bottom of both sticks.
2-9. The Red LED on the receiver indicates either an obstruction or
a mis-alignment. The light curtains have a wide acceptance
angle and should align easily. Test proper operation of the
sticks by standing in the opening and observing the Red LED
turning O .
2-10. Test for proper operation with the operator and door.
