To facilitate the identification of the parts in the installation diagram, each part of the photocell columns
is identified with a letter:
The MF is a column photocell developed to safeguard all types of industrial doors (sectional and
high-speed doors) up to a maximum width of  meters.
The emitter and receiver create an infrared beam grid offering protection up to . meters high.
When the infrared beams are interrupted, a signal is sent to the control board. Once the detention area
is clear, a new signal is sent to the control board to indicate that the area is clear.
The photocell has three operating modes:
Static,Sequential and Sequential for transparent tarpaulins.

For the correct functioning of the photocells, it is necessary to pay attention to some aspects during
the installation process.
Make sure that the lower edge of the
photocell columns is aligned with the level of
the door in the closed position.
You should avoid exposing the photocells
(especially the photocell receiver) directly to
sunlight.
Other types of devices that emit infrared light
such as photocells and other light curtains
should also be avoided.
Also avoid areas with a reflective surface.
Make sure the columns are installed with the
cable ends facing up.

INSTALLATION
Before starting the installation, turn off the main power supply to the door control board and
make sure that this system is completely deactivated.
• ASSEMBLY OF PHOTOCELL COLUMNS
Remove covers (D) from columns (A) by loosening the screws on
each cover.
Place the photocell receiver (RX) in the place to be fixed, mark the 4
necessary holes, drill and tighten.
The output of the cables must always face upwards.
Repeat with the other photocell (TX), ensuring both columns are at
the same height (aligned horizontally).
Adjust the orientation of each column so that they are aligned
between them:
• Slightly loosen the clamp screws (C);
• Rotate the columns until they are perfectly aligned (Detail 4a);
• Retighten the clamp screws (C) to lock this position.

Make the cable connections in the following order:
Connection a: TX Photocell (emitter) with Synchronization Cable;
Connection b: Synchronization Cable with RX Photocell (receiver);
Connection c: RX Photocell (receiver) with Connection Cable;
Connection d: Connection Cable with Control Board (see page 8A);
Power the door control board and check the photocell Signaling Leds
(see page 9B).
Test the functioning of the system by carrying out an opening/closing
maneuver, verifying that the photocells do not interfere with the normal
movement of the door.
Then repeat the maneuver and place yourself in the area protected by
the photocells and check if it reverses the direction of maneuver.
SYNC CABLE
Pass the photocell cables through holes centered with the supports (B)
of each column, in order to make the connections between them and
with the control board.
This way, they will be hidden by the covers (D).
Replace the covers (D) on the supports (B) and fasten with the screws.

OPERATING MODE
Photocells can operate in three different modes:
• SEQUENTIAL MODE
The photocell is able to differentiate between
an interruption caused by an object and the
movement of the door.
For this mode to work correctly, the door must be
opaque.
• SEQUENTIAL MODE FOR TRANSPARENT
TARPAULINS
The photocell is able to differentiate between
an interruption caused by an object and the
movement of the door.
For this mode to work properly, the bottom of
the tarpaulin must be opaque by at least 200mm.
• STATIC MODE
In this mode, the photocell will reverse
the maneuver when one of the sensors is
interrupted.

TIME DIAGRAM
When an object enters the area protected by the light curtain the output switches to open contact (NO)
after the response time.
When the object leaves the area, the output returns to closed contact (NC).
This diagram allows, during a test, to verify the behavior of the photocell and its interaction on a time
scale, showing the conditions that change during that period.
To check if the photocell is working correctly, this function allows the photocell to be self-tested
through a pulse of at least 100ms to GND (0V) executed by the door control board.
If the photocell is working correctly, it will switch the relay output.

To select the next Operating Mode, follow these
steps:
01 • Turn off the power supply photocells;
02 • On the photocell receiver (RX) cover sensors 6
and 9from the top and keep the others clear;
03 • Reconnect the photocells to the power supply.
The photocell will operate in the next Operating
Mode.
04 • Uncover sensors 6and 9again.
By default the photocells are in
SEQUENTIAL Mode (max speed of 1.4 m/s).
Whenever you carry out the steps to change the Operating Mode, the photocell assumes the
mode immediately following the mode that is active by the following order:
• SEQUENTIAL  STATIC  SEQUENTIAL FOR TRANSPARENT TARPAULINS  SEQUENTIAL 
