Cut Sheet

Overview
Status indicator LEDs for power, signal, and output are clearly visible beneath a raised dome in the sensor’s transparent o-
ring-sealed polycarbonate cover. Also located beneath the sensor’s o-ring-sealed cover are controls for light/dark operate
selection and the sensitivity adjustment.
• The power indicator (green) lights when power is applied to the sensor.
• The signal indicator (red) lights when the sensor sees its modulated light source and pulses at a rate proportional
to the strength of the received light signal; this is the AID

.
• The output indicator (amber) lights when the sensor’s output is conducting. This indicator is especially useful when
a timing logic module is used and signal and output conditions are not concurrent.
