Installation Guide

• Mount the transmitter and receiver facing each other on rigid brackets. Keep both optical axes aligned across the full detecting range.
• Tighten mounting screws to 0.5 N·m maximum to protect the glass-fiber reinforced PBT housing.
• Connect the 2 m cable to a 10–30 VDC supply. Wire the PNP open collector output to a positive-switching load.
• Turn the 1-turn trimmer to set sensitivity. Use the green stable LED and red light-receiving LED during alignment.
• Choose LIGHT-ON or DARK-ON with the mode switch before you start commissioning.
• For side-by-side mounting, install no more than 2 units and enable polarization filters or the automatic different frequency function.
