21. FITTING THE SAFETY PHOTO
ELECTRIC BEAM SENSOR (OPTIONAL)
Locate the Photo Electric Beam (P.E.) normally closed
contact type in a strategic location within doorway. We
recommend 150mm above the floor level and as close
as possible to the door opening, inside the garage.
Remove shunt from P.E connector (Fig. 29) and connect
the wires from the P.E. wiring harness to terminal block
(Fig. 30). The wiring diagram is for Model PHBE (Order
Code 90214).
Make sure to align the beams correctly. Follow the
manual supplied with the Photo Electric Beam.
WARNING: When using Auto Close Mode and P.E.
beams, the doorway must be clear of all obstructions
and persons at all times. The location of the beam and
manner in which it is installed might not give safety pro-
tection at all times. Check to make sure that the height
of the beam and type used give maximum protection
possible.
22. SETTING OF AUTO CLOSE TIME
IMPORTANT NOTICE: IT IS COMPULSORY TO
INSTALL A PHOTO ELECTRIC BEAM BEFORE
USING THE AUTO CLOSE MODE.
The Auto Close timer will only start after the Photo
Electric Beams (P.E.) path is broken and the auto close
time has been set. If the P.E. path is not broken the door
will remain open till the path is broken. If the Door
Opener incurs an obstruction (not from the P.E.) while
closing the door will re-open and not auto close until the
part of the P.E. beam is broken again.
SETTING AUTO CLOSE TIME
1. Press and hold the Auto Close Time button (Fig. 31).
2. While holding in the Auto Close Time button, press
the Plus (+) button. Each press of this button will
add one second to the auto close delay time.
3. To decrease the delay time follow Step 1 and press
the Minus (-) button. Each press will deduct one
second from the auto close time.
4. Press the Operate button or transmitter to open the
door. When the door is fully opened the Open Limit
green LED will flash to indicate that the auto close
mode is in operation. Break the path of the P.E.
Beam momentarily, this will initialize the auto close
mode. When the door reaches the fully opened
position, the door will pause for the set auto close
time and start to auto close.
