Takex Quad PB-IN-50HF User manual

Thank you for purchasing our "intelligent" quad photoelectric beam. This unit will provide long term dependable service when properly
installed. Please read the Instruction Manual carefully for correct and effective use.
Please note: This sensor is designed to detect intrusion and initiate an alarm; it is not a burglary-preventing device. TAKEX is
not responsible for damage, injury or losses caused by accident, theft, Acts of God (including inductive surge by
lightning), abuse, misuse, abnormal usage, faulty installation of improper maintenance.
• Four synchronised beams
4 beams are "and-gated" which helps to prevent false alarms
from flying debris and small animals.
• High power infrared
The active infrared transmission is exceptionally strong with a
maximum arrival distance ten times greater than the specified
protection distance.
• Four frequency selections
4 separate choices of frequency avoids cross-talk in stacked or
long linear installations. Allows stacking of Transmitters or
Receivers all on one side.
• Beam transmission strength selection
2 levels of beam transmission strength, which can be set to suit
the protection distance.
• Auto-gain lock
Optimal sensitivity gain is automatically set at any coverage
distance up to the maximum protection distance. (Audible
tone indicates setting is completed.)

MANUAL
FEATURE
The PB-IN-HF series beams are equipped with many features, which provide a wide choice of field selectable options.
These options result in considerable flexibility for a variety of application requirements. The features are;
• Environmental module
Environmental trouble signal is sent when beam reception level is
reduced below an acceptable level.
• Programmed AGC function
Sensitivity is automatically increased in bad weather to contend
with fog, rain, or frost.
• Alarm memory indicator
Alarm memory LED located on Receiver can be manually reset
(at sensor) or remotely controlled via panel.
• Audible signal for alignment
An alignment tone aids in quick set-up of beams for electrical
measurement of alignment.
• Other features
Monitor output, Response time changeover, Tamper output.

SET-UP OF FUNCTIONS AND BEAM ALIGNMENT
6
OPERATION CHECK
1) Supply power with cover detached.
2) Set function options.
(Refer to 7. FUNCTIONS DESCRIPTION for
detailed explanation of each option.)
3) Adjust optical angle.
1) Look through view finder on either side of transmitter optical
unit and move until receiver unit is visible.
2) Repeat the procedure for lower optical unit, and then repeat on
receiver.
4) Fine tuning
Initial beam alignment
can be achieved by
using the alignment
tone indicator.
1) Attach the shading
plates (stored on
sides on both TR/RE)
to the lower optics of
both TR and RE.
2) Turn the receiver
alignment tone switch to ON.
3) Adjust the optics with the adjustment screws until
highest tone is reached. (Note: There will be no sound if
the attenuation alignment tone LED is lit.)
4) Reverse the procedure, i.e. attach shading plates to upper optics
of TR/RE and repeat adjustment.
5) After adjustment, replace the shading plates in storage areas
of TR/RE.
6) Turn the alignment tone indicator to OFF.
3) If there is a continuous "beep" sound, detach receiver cover
and re-adjust referring to section 5 part 3) Auto-gain lock
function.
Confirm a Beep sound with the
bottom end of cover lightly pushed
not to interrupt the beam.
Pre-attach cover.
5) Attach cover.
1) Attach transmitter cover, first.
2) Confirm that receiver
sensitivity attenuation LED
stays OFF. Place cover in
position, but do not secure. A
"beep" sound will occur after
5 seconds. After this signal,
secure the receiver cover with
screws.
[Receiver]
1) Sensitivity allowance is automatically set when the beep
sound is initiated.
2) If tone alignment switch is left accidentally ON, tone will
stop when receiver cover is pre-attached.

1) Alarm LED only.
2) Alarm LED and sound check via tone alignment switch. If tone
alignment switch is set to "ON", tone will stop when cover is
replaced but be effective for an audible test of operation for five
minutes after auto-gain is locked.
After installation, alignment and auto-gain set, test operation by walk testing the beam. Two methods may be used :

FUNCTIONS DESCRIPTION
1. Four channel frequency selection
The beam pairs may be set at various frequency levels to
avoid crosstalk between units which are stacked, in-line, or
other configurations which have the potential of spill-over
transmission from one beam to another. Set the frequency
level as illustrated.
1) Linear protection
3) Double stacked linear protection
MAKE SURE TRANSMITTER AND RECEIVER OF
PAIR ARE SET AT SAME CHANNEL ! Paired TR/RE
will not set up unless set at the same channel.
2) Double stack protection
4) Perimeter protection
2. Beam power selection
4. Auto-gain lock function
5) Perimeter double stacked protection
This option allows field selection of the appropriate beam
intensity relative to the application. For distance significantly
less than the specified protection distance, the beam intensity
should be reduced to eliminate potential reflection problems.
For zones reaching maximum protection distance, the beam level
should be set to the highest level.
The use of a voltmeter for alignment is advised to ensure
highest level of stability.
•
Note : For interior applications where greater chance for
reflection occurs, the setting should be at LOW.
1) The auto-gain lock serves to standardise the responsiveness
and tolerance level of the units regardless of varying
distance in an installation.
The situations above have exactly the same tolerance and responsiveness
levels even though the distance are different.

5. Tone indicator
2) A "beep" tone is issued from the receiver approximately 5 seconds after the cover is put into position.
This tone indicates the Auto-gain has been set. Refer to the chart below.
Note 1)
2)
3)
A tone is generated regardless of whether "beep" (alignment tone) switch is set to ON or OFF.
The auto-gain setting is locked in for approximately two weeks even if power is disrupted.
If the receiver cover is detached while power is supplied or if power is discontinued for longer than two weeks
(but cover left in place), the auto-gain automatically reset to maximum sensitivity. (Gain is automatically locked
with power re-supplied.)
This feature provides audible testing or signals for the following items.
7. Environmental Module
The environmental signal is initiated if the beam reception level
is reduced to approx 50% or more. The module "Watches" for a
gradual degradation of the beam reception which is indicative of
extremely poor weather conditions. NC or NO signal output is
selectable.
