Installation reccomendations
• Verify that the beam tower is fully watertight once the cover and end caps have
been correctly filled at the end of the installation.
• Use the cable glands supplied on the tower for all cabling must pass through the
lower end cap using the cable glands supplied.
• Avoid any type of obstruction between the transmitter and receiver.
• Avoid installing the receivers beams in a position where direct sunlight, at the same
angle as the receivers beams, can enter directly into optics especially at sunset and
sunrise
• Do not install multiple beams where the transmitter beam can interfere with other
receiver beams. It is always better place either transmitter or receivers back to
back.
• Do not use switched power supplies which can induce noise on the power supply
voltage which can in turn be amplified by the optical sync electronics creating
unwanted problems.

Alignment
Initial alignment
Once beam columns have been correctly installed point the transmitter optics towards its
corresponding receiver and vice versa, repeat for all the beam pairs.
This is achieved by manually positioning the lens holder horizontally and vertically using
one of the two screws (which ever is more convenient) to be found above the lens.
