. FEATURES
• State-of-the-art circuit
• Durable housing
• Dual photoelectric beam sensor
• Minimum false alarms
• Indoor and outdoor use
• Excellent immunity to freezing, snow, rain, fog, and other
bad weather conditions
• Anti-frost design
• N.C. tamper switch included
Note: The VMX-150D / 300D / 450D are designed to detect
movement of an intruder. However, note that environmental
disturbances in the protected area may also cause the sensor to
create an alarm. Test the detector periodically for continuous
satisfactory operation before arming the alarm system. Figure 1. General View Figure 2. Inside View

. INSTALLATION. INSTALLATION
. INSTALLATION
Avoid blocking objects Avoid direct sunlight and keep the
max. detecting range as prescribed
Do not mount unit on un-
secure or non-solid surface
When installing several units,
mount as shown above
3.1 Mounting
A. Wall Installation
(1) Loosen the cover locking screw and remove the cover. Loosen
the unit setting screw at the lower part of the unit. Slide the
mounting plate downwards and remove it.
(2) Feed the wires through the wiring holes of the mounting plate
before fixing the plate to the wall.
(3) Fix the mounting plate firmly on the wall with the mounting
screws supplied.
B. Pole Installation
(1) Use a 43 mm (1.66”) mounting pole
(2) Fix the clamps onto mounting plate with supplied screws. Place
the clamps around the pole and tighten firmly with the pole
locking screws.
(3) Feed the wires through the wiring hole of the mounting plate.

3.2 Wiring (transmitter and receiver)
• (+): Connect to the (+) output of a 10 to 24 VDC power source.
• (–): Connect to (–) output of a 10 to 24 VDC power source.
• TAMPER: Connect to the N.C. tamper circuit of the control panel.
• ALARM (receiver only): Connect to N.C. burglar zone input.
NOTE: Grounding may be necessary, depending on the location.
3.3 Alignment
A. Eyeball - make horizontal / vertical alignments visually:
• Look into one of the transmitter's viewfinders (one of the four
holes located between the two lenses) at a 45° angle.
• Adjust the lens horizontally by turning it left and right by hand until
the receiver is clearly seen in the viewfinder.
• Use a screwdriver to turn the vertical adjustment screw (above the
lens on the lens bracket) clockwise or counterclockwise until the
receiver is clearly seen in the viewfinder.
• Repeat the same steps for the receiver.
Note: If you cannot see the opposite unit in the viewfinder, put a
sheet of white paper near the unit to be seen. Move your eyes
about 5 cm away from the viewfinder and try again.
B. Meter - fine tune the receiver's adjustment:
• Set the range of a volt-ohm meter (VOM) to 0-9 VDC.
• Insert the red (+) probe into the (+) terminal and the black (–)
probe into the (–) terminal. Measure the voltage.
• Adjust the horizontal angle by hand until the VOM indicates the
highest voltage.
• Adjust the vertical angle by turning the vertical adjustment screw
until the VOM indicates the highest voltage.
• Do not interrupt the beam while adjusting. 2.7 VDC is the
maximum possible reading. Anything over 2.0 VDC is good, and
over 1.5 VDC is acceptable. The higher the reading, the better. In
misty areas, the reading must be over 2.0 VDC.
3.4 Testing the system
• Power up the transmitter and receiver. If the LED remains steadily
ON even when the beam is not interrupted, realign the units.
• Walk between the transmitter and receiver at various speeds to
interrupt the beams. Adjust the delay time control as needed.
• Detection will occur only if both the upper and lower beams are
simultaneously interrupted.
• The beam interrupt control determines how long the beam can be interrupted before triggering the alarm.
• Adjust the beam interrupt control as required at the specific site. You may need to make adjustments later after completing the walk test.
• The following figures show the typical values for sensing an adult.
Fast running (50 ms) Jogging (100 ms) Fast walk (200 ms) Normal walk (350 ms) Slow motion (500 ms)

TROUBLE CHECK REMEDY
Transmitter LED does not light Incorrectly wired and/or insufficient voltage Ensure the power supply to the transmitter is
10 to 24 VDC
Receiver LED never lights up when the beam
is interrupted
Insufficient voltage
Beam reflected away from receiver
Beams not simultaneously interrupted
Raise voltage
Clean the cover
Check overall installation
Beams interrupted and LED lights, but no
alarm is triggered
Alarm trigger cable may be cut, or relay
contacts stuck due to overloading
Check wiring and the effect of the load on the
output level or overhaul the unit
Alarm LED continuously illuminated Lenses out of alignment
Beams are blocked
Cover is foggy or dirty
Realign the lenses
Remove any obstacles
Clean the cover
Alarm trigger becomes erratic in bad weather Lenses out of alignment Check overall system installation. If still
erratic, realign the lenses
Frequent false alarms triggered by leaves,
birds, etc
Too sensitive
Bad location
Reduce beam interrupt speed
Change location
