 Alarm LED does not light,
 even when beams are blocked.
1. Beams reect to the receiver
 by other objects.
2. Both beams are not blocked
 simultaneously.
3. Beam interruption time is too short.
1. Remove the reecting object or change
 optical axis direction.
2. Block both beams.
3. Increase beam interruption time 
 adjustment.
 When beams are blocked, receiver LED
 lights are ON, but not alarm.
1. Wiring is short circuited.
2. Wiring connection is not good.
 Check wiring and connection spot.
 The alarm indication lamp of receiver is

 Intermittent Alarm (detection)
 *If you’re experiencing false detections
 then increase the time adjustment by 1
 increment at a time until the photo beam
 functions as desired.
1. Bad wiring.
2. Fluctuating power supply / voltage.
3. Intermittent blockage between the
 transmitter and the receiver.
4. The receiver or transmitter is unstable.
5. Blocked by other moving objects.
6. Beam interruption time out of adjustment.
1. Check wiring.
2. Check the power supply.
3. Remove the obstruction or relocate.
4. Fix the mounting.
5. Adjust the optical axis.
6. Adjust interruption time or change                    
 installation position.
