2.2. Setup

It is recommended to carry out the system
installation according to the following steps:
1. Switch off main power for the installation area
and mark it clearly with out of service.
Complete the configuration of the TLS 500 by
2.
adjustment the potentiometer
3. Screw the TLS 500 to the chosen location.
Important:
Do not over-tighten the mounting screws.
Do not drill additional holes into the TLS 500.

2.3. Configuration (VR- and P-types only)

There is a potentiometer at the back of the TLS 500.
1. Open the cover at the back of the TLS 500
carefully with a slotted screw driver.
2. Turn the potentiometer to either fully left or fully
right.
3. Adjust the potentiometer with a screw driver
according to the application.
VR-Type
On the VR-type, the operation range can be
adjusted.

Installation and operation manual
Condition: Beam axis perpendicular to surface
Example: TLS 500-VR on a wooden floor
Mounting height = 3 m and f = 0.7 ... 0.8
Range setting: 3 m / 0.75 = 4 m
P-Type
On the P-type, the recalibration time can be
adjusted.
Recalibration time means the time until an immobile
person or object is accepted by the sensor as
background.
