Wired Safety Beams Installation
Step 14 - Safety Beams (optional)
Safety Beams extend across the garage door opening.
The Safety Beam is designed to detect an obstruction
while the door is closing and to send a signal to the
garage door opener to reverse or stop the door
movement. One or two sets of Safety Beams can be
connected to GDO-6v4 EasyRoller® opener.
Step 14.1 - Fitting the Safety Beam
Attach the mounting bracket (4) to the adjustment
bracket (3) with the pan head screw (6) (supplied).
(Fig. 39)
Attach the bracket (2) to the Safety Beam
transmitter with four taptite screws (m3x5) and
attach the other side to the adjustment bracket (3)
with the pan head screw (6) . (Fig. 28)
Repeat steps a and b to assemble the Safety Beam
receiver.
Mount the receiver to one side of the door and
transmitter on the other side in line with receiver.
The mounting surface should be rigid. ATA
recommends the transmitter and receiver are
placed in line of sight, with the beam 100mm
above ground level (as per AS60335). They should
also be placed as close as possible to the door
opening. Connect as per the wiring diagram (Fig.
30).
Step 14.2 - Alignment
Power up the opener with the Safety Beam
connected. The green LED on the transmitter
should turn ON to indicate power is present.
If the receiver is connected to power and the
red LED is fl ashing while the green LED on the
transmitter is on, the transmitter and receiver are
not aligned.
Make horizontal and/or vertical adjustment on the
transmitter and/or receiver until the red LED on the
receiver turns on, indicating alignment.
NOTE: The sensors need to be 100mm above
the fl oor level, however, the exact position
must be chosen in such a manner that it suits
the application, the environmental conditions
and provides maximum safety protection.
WARNING: Safety Beam must be installed if
the closing force as measured at the bottom
edge of the door exceeds 400N (40kg).
NOTE: Three wire Safety Beam is not compatible with
GDO-6v4 EasyRoller® opener.
