Do not place nger or uninsulated tools inside the electrical controller. Touching wires or
other parts inside the enclosure may cause electrical shock, serious injury or death.
Disconnect power at the fused disconnect during all electrical or mechanical service. When
uncertain whether power supply is disconnected, always verify using a voltmeter.
If the door appears broken or does not seem to work correctly, it should be immediately
removed from service until repairs can be carried out or a qualied service technician is
contacted for corrective action.

The purpose of this manual is to familiarize the installer and purchaser with the proper installaon and operaon of the Acusensor
M. It is essenal that this equipment be properly installed and operaonal before the door is used by the public. It is the installer’s
responsibility to inspect the operaon of the entrance system to be sure it complies with any applicable standards. In the United
States, ANSI Standard 156.10 (Full Energy) covers these types of doors. Other local standards or codes may apply. Use them in
addion to the ANSI standard.
Instruct the building owners and operator on the essenals of the operaon of the door and this device. The owner should follow
these instrucons to determine whether the door is operang properly and should immediately call for service if there is any
malfuncon. All installaon changes and adjustments must be made by qualied, NABCO trained technicians.
If aer troubleshoong a problem, a sasfactory soluon cannot be achieved, please call Nabco Entrances at 1-877-622-2694
between 8 am – 4:30 pm Central me for addional assistance.

Acusensor M is mounted on the Header Cover for all Slide Door Units, Swing Door Units, and Fold Door Units. The Acusensor M is
used to detect changes of mulple near-infrared rays that beam from the Sensor down to various points on the oor. The Acusensor
M can detect a moving pedestrian or object, or a staonary pedestrian or object. Upon Presence Detecon, the Acusensor M
outputs a detecon signal to Control. The Control automacally sends a signal to the Motor/Operator, the Motor/Operator opens
the automac door.
The Acusensor M was developed based on the concept of safety, comfort, reliability and mulpurpose.

The Sensor is used to detect changes of mulple near-infrared rays that beam from the Sensor down to various points on the oor.
These various points reect the near-infrared rays to form an grid in the shape of a square. To more acurately monitor a Presence
Detecon Area, the grid is broken into invisible rows (Depth), and columns (Width).

Note: Labeled as Operaon Mode but is actually a Monitoring Operaon Mode.
Monitoring is an added layer of communicaon between the control and the sensor. The control will send a signal to the sensor. The
sensor performs a self-diagnosc test, then sends a signal back to the control conrming proper operaon.
The Monitoring Operaon Mode (set by dip switches 1 and 2) determines which rows of presence detecon are acve and which
are applied to the monitoring funcon. Acve rows are not the same as rows that are monitored. Rows can be acve (able to tell the
control to open the door) but not be applied to the Monitoring funcon.

Learn Time The amount of time it takes for the sensor to learn the area, or relearn if a normally stationary
object is moved. ANSI requires minimum 30sec.
Anti-Noise Helps prevent false detection caused by electrical noise or nearby light sources.
Anti-Environment Helps prevent false detection caused by vibration, insects, snow.
Sensitivity Adjust signal strength for detecting moving pedestrians or objects. Example: For slow moving
pedestrians or objects, sensitivity option should be on Medium or High.
IP Mode Helps prevent interference caused by sensors near each other.

If mounting height for Sensor is low, movement can easily be detected within multiple rows at
the same time. Because of this, the ECO Mode may not operate correctly.
Note: ECO Mode is an acronym for Ecological Friendly Mode, also known a Direconal Sensing.
Note: ECO Mode is not used for Doorway 2 operaon.
ECO Mode is a funcon that decides whether movement is coming toward the door, or away from door (direconal sensing). If the
Sensor decides movement is going away from door, the High or Low feature will determine how far the object gets before the door is
allowed to close.
Mode Depth Rows Description
Low 5 and 6 Output stops when and object is detected moving away through rows 5 to 6.
1 thru 4 Output maintains when and object is detected in rows 4 to 1.
High 4, 5, and 6 Output stops when and object is detected moving away through rows 4 to 6.
1 thru 3 Output maintains when and object is detected in rows 3 to 1.

Area Check Mode is used for adjusng the depth of a detecon area, and conrm test command input.
An unique LED color is assigned to each Depth Row (1 thru 6). When the installer selects a Depth Row, the Sensor will illuminate each
assigned LED color.
If mulple Depth Rows are detected at the same me the Sensor’s LED will illuminate the color assigned to the Depth Row closest to
the face of Door.

In the event a moving pedestrian decidedly stands still within the Presence Detection Area for
a time longer than the “Learn Time”, the door may close and cause some probability of severe
injury or entrapment.

to close. Learn Time diers due to the Switch Seng for Operaon Mode and Switch Seng for Depth Row.
