FIGURE 32
Additional Opening Beams
Additional beam functionality:
25.5.1. PIRAC Control
The Passive-Infrared Autoclose feature allows the gate to close automatically,
as soon as a vehicle or pedestrian has passed through the Closing Beam.
This security feature ensures that the gate stays open for the minimum amount of
time possible. If the PIRAC feature has been enabled, the system will react in the
following way:
• When the gate is triggered to open and nothing moves through or interrupts
the Closing Beam, the gate will open fully and stay open for the period of time
determined by the Autoclose Timer
• However, if the Closing Beam is interrupted at any stage, while the gate is
opening or open, the gate will close immediately after the Closing Beam is cleared
If the Autoclose feature has not been enabled then the gate will
remain open indenitely. To close the gate the Closing Beam
must be interrupted or the trigger button must be pressed.
25.5.2. IR Beam Test (only compatible with i5 Safety Beams; not compatible
with Photon wireless Safety Beams).
Automatically tests the Safety Beams before each gate cycle. (eg. as required
by CE.) In order for this feature to work, the power supply negative of the beam
transmitter must be wired to the Safe Com terminal of the Controller.
