• Do not mix batteries that have different levels of power remaining
(i.e., new and used batteries or batteries of different manufacturers).
Not observing the above may result in an explosion, leakage of electrolyte,
emission of toxic gases or other outcomes that may be harmful to people
and property.
• Remove all batteries prior to replacing with new ones. If this is
not followed, the low battery indicator LED will not reset and will
continue to blink.
Disposal method for batteries
Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local
government regulations/low and EU Battery
Directive (2006/66/EU).

Note>>
• Avoid placing the cables in a position where
they can be caught between the main unit and
cover.
• Ne pas mélanger des batteries avec des niveaux de charges différentes
(par ex. des batteries neuves avec des batteries usagées, ou des
batteries de fabriquants différents). Le non respect de ce qui précède
peut causer une explosion, une fuite d'électrolyte, une émission de gaz
toxiques ou d'autres conséquences dangereuses pour les personnes ou
les biens.
Avertissement
Attention
• Enlever toutes les batteries avant d'en remettre de nouvelles.

• When making the adjustments by the monitor jack, be careful not
to cover the optical unit with your hand, the voltmeter pin cord, etc.
• After the rough alignment using the view finder,
check the light receiving status by the
Alignment / Level Indicator.
• After checking the receiving level of optical axis by using the alarm indicator, make
sure to make fine alignment for both transmitter and receiver with voltmeter until it
reaches maximum monitor output over “Good” level.
Alignment / Level Indicator LED
Caution
• The Alignment / Level indicator LED is a supporting tool for easy alignment.
Be sure to perform fine alignment to ensure the maximum output level
through the monitor jack.
• The Alignment / Level indicator LED should only be used for rough alignment.
For fine or good alignment, always use the monitor jack output level.
Look into the viewfinder and perform fine alignment of the horizontal and
vertical angles using the alignment dial.
Adjust until another side
sensor comes to center.

Checking the Indicator LED and fine alignment
Set the voltmeter range to 5 to 10VDC and connect
the voltmeter probes and to and of the
monitor jack respectively.
Optical alignment is an important procedure to increase reliability. Be sure to take
alignment step
1 through 2 described below to attain the maximum level of the output through
the monitor jack.

4-2 OPERATION CHECK
Make sure that the Alignment / Level indicator LED is OFF.
If it is illuminated even when the beams are not blocked,
make optical alignment again.
Check that the Power / Low battery indicator LEDs on both
transmitter and receiver are ON.
If the Power / Low battery indicator LED is blinking, the battery
power is low. Replace with new batteries.
Conduct a walk test to check that Alignment / Level indicator
LED on the receiver turns ON as the walker interrupts the
beams.
After installation is complete, be sure to check the operation.

Power / Low battery indicator LEDs are not
illuminated. (Receiver)
Power / Low battery indicator LEDs are not
illuminated. (Transmitter)
Output is not sent.
When the beam is blocked, the “OUTPUT” indicator
LED is illuminated but the Output is not activated.
Output is activated even if the light is not
blocked.
Batteries are running out too quickly.
Frost, snow or heavy rain causes activation.
Improper output
Even if new batteries are used, Low battery
indicator LED is ON.
Power may not be supplied.
The supply voltage may not be correct.
The power supply polarity is wrong.
Reversed battery polarity.
Reflection from the floor or wall.
Beam has not been blocked.
Signal line short-circuited.
Surface of Transmitter/Receiver cover
soiled.
Optical alignment was not performed properly.
Main unit cover is not set properly.
Optical alignment not optimized.
Too much snow or frost accretion.
Problem with wiring.
Batteries are inactive condition.
Connect power supply of 12-24VDC.
Check Power supply voltage 12-24VDC.
Check power supply polarity.
Check the battery polarity.
Align beams away from the floor or wall.
Block all two beams.
Check the wiring.
Clean the cover (wipe the cover with a soft cloth dampened with water or
diluted neutral detergent).
See “3-2 OPTICAL ALIGNMENT” on page 5 and make realignment.
Set the cover properly.
See “3-2 OPTICAL ALIGNMENT” on page 5 and make realignment.
Remove snow or frost on the cover.
