Do you have a question about the BEA COLIBRI ONE and is the answer not in the manual?

The COLIBRI ONE is a unidirectional activation sensor designed for pedestrian automatic doors, utilizing microwave doppler radar technology. This sensor is engineered to provide reliable and efficient door activation while offering various customization options for field adjustments and installation.

Function Description:

The COLIBRI ONE operates by emitting microwave signals and detecting changes in the reflected signals caused by moving objects within its detection field. This allows it to activate automatic doors when pedestrians approach. The sensor is unidirectional, meaning it primarily detects movement from a specific direction, which helps to prevent unwanted activations.

The sensor is equipped with a relay output for door activation. It features an LED indicator for activation status, which can also be used for troubleshooting. The device is designed to be robust and suitable for various environmental conditions, with an IP54 rating for protection against dust and splashing water.

Usage Features:

The COLIBRI ONE offers flexible installation and field adjustment options to optimize its performance for specific applications:

Mounting:
- Wall Mounting: The sensor can be mounted on a wall, providing a wide detection field suitable for various pedestrian traffic patterns.
- Ceiling Mounting: Alternatively, it can be ceiling-mounted, which is often preferred for a more discreet installation and a different detection pattern.
- Installation Process: The installation involves applying a mounting template, drilling holes for the cable and screws, connecting the wires (RED for power supply, BLACK for ground, WHITE for COM, GREEN for NO), and firmly mounting the sensor.
Field Adjustments:
- Width Adjustment: The detection field's width can be adjusted to either a "wide" (13 ft x 6.5 ft) or "narrow" (6.5 ft x 8 ft) pattern. The narrow pattern is available as an accessory. This allows tailoring the detection area to the specific door opening and traffic flow.
- Size Adjustment (MIN/MAX): The overall size of the detection field can be adjusted from minimum to maximum, with a vertical angle of 30°. This helps to fine-tune the sensor's range and prevent false triggers.
- Angle Adjustment: The sensor's tilt angles can be adjusted both vertically (0° to 90°) and laterally (-30° to +30°), allowing precise aiming of the detection field. This includes adjustments for 0°, 15°, 30°, and 45° angles to optimize the field size.
Troubleshooting: The device includes a troubleshooting guide based on the LED status and sensor behavior:
- LED is OFF: Indicates no activation. Possible causes include the sensor being off, improper output configuration, or the sensor being disturbed by vibrations or other factors. Solutions involve checking wiring, power supply, output configuration, and ensuring the sensor is stable.
- Activation Occurs Constantly: Suggests the sensor is disturbed by vibrations, door operations, or external factors. Solutions include making sure the sensor is fixed properly, increasing the antenna angle, and reducing the field size.
- Activation for No Apparent Reason: Can be caused by rain, moving objects, highly reflective environments, or airlock vestibules. Solutions include installing an MRA (rain accessory), changing the antenna angle, decreasing the field size, and ensuring the sensor is not detecting movement outside its intended field.

Maintenance Features:

Tips for Optimal Performance:
- Avoid Touching Electronic Parts: To prevent damage.
- Avoid Vibrations: Vibrations can cause false activations or interfere with sensor performance.
- Do Not Cover the Sensor: Obstructions can block the microwave signals and impair detection.
- Avoid Proximity to Neon Lamps or Moving Objects: These can interfere with the sensor's operation, leading to false triggers or reduced accuracy.

The COLIBRI ONE is designed for ease of installation and adjustment, making it a versatile solution for managing pedestrian traffic through automatic doors. Its robust design and comprehensive troubleshooting guide ensure reliable operation and straightforward maintenance.
