Testing the device
After installation is complete, complete the following steps to test the device is functioning
1. Ensure the Alarm indicator LED is off. If the LED is on when the beams are not blocked, perform the
steps in the Optical alignment section again.
2.
Ensure the low battery indicator LEDs on both transmitter and receiver are off. If the battery indicator LED is
blinking, replace the batteries in the device.
3. Conduct a walk test to check that the Alarm indicator LED on the receiver turns on as the walker
interrupts the beams.
Be sure to conduct a walk test at the following three points:
A.
In front of the transmitter
B.
In front of the receiver
C.
At the midpoint between the transmitter and receiver
Installation and alignment are complete when the alarm indicator LED turns on at all three points of the walk test.
4.
(Optional) If using, enable the Battery saving timer after completing the walk test. See Battery saving timer.
LED Indication
The following table describes the meaning of the LED indications of the device.

Troubleshooting
If the alarm indicator LED is off or blinking when the beam is interrupted, complete the following steps:
1. Perform the steps in the Optical alignment section again.
2. In a multi-detector configuration, the receiver may be receiving the infrared beam from an unrelated
transmitter. See 4-channel beam frequency selector and check the 4-channel beam frequency selector
setting.
3. The beam from the transmitter may reach the receiver by reflecting off the floor or wall of a building.
Good reflectors of visible light are also good reflectors of infrared beams. Remove the reflective
objects around the detector or install the detector in a different place and then align the optical axis
again.
