NG
Change footing, pole
or structure to insure a
stable mounting surface.
Note: Beam Alignment Procedure
When aligning dual or twin beams you must cover both bottom receiver mirror and
transmitter mirror with blocking shields, than adjust the top attempting to maximize
the Monitor Jack Voltage (see below). When maximum voltage is obtained,
place the blocking shields on both upper receiver mirror and transmitter mirror
and adjust lower for maximum Monitor Jack Voltage. (Do not align both beams
simultaneously.)
AX-250PLUS/500PLUS:5.0VDC or more
AX-350TF/650TF:5.5VDC or more
When using LED INDICATOR of AX-350TF/650TF, align to get at least "EXCEL".

Is the LED indicator on the
TRANSMITTER on?
There is frost or snow on the unit's cover.
Very heavy rain occurred at the same time as the activation.
There are plants, trees or debris that may block the beam
during windy conditions.
The unit may be detecting a large bird.
The units may be detecting small animals (dog, cat, deer etc...)
The RECEIVER is facing directly at the rising or setting sun.
There are refl ective objects within 3 feets of beams path. (cars,
glass, surfaces with high gloss paints etc.)
Bad wiring or corroded splices. Check for shorts, opens,
grounds and high resistance on the alarm circuit wires.
The covers are very dirty or dusty.

Does the Unit work properly?
Double check to see that
NO YES
there are no objects that may
be blocking the beams.
NO
Go to page 11, see trouble shooting procedure number 1.
Use the HU-1 heater unit.
"Turn the beam's interruption adjustment clockwise one graduation."
Cut off branches, now grass or secure debris to avoid
unnecessary activation. Or move the beams.
Adjust the interruption time, change the installation height or
move the beams in order to avoid perching birds within the
beam's path.
Adjust the interruption time, change the installation height or
move the beams in order to avoid small animals crossing the
beam's path.
Move the beams to avoid the rising or setting sun. Or swap
TRANSMITTER and RECEIVER locations.
Call Technical Support for other options.
Remove the objects causing the refl ection, or move the beams.
Call Technical Support for other options.
Check for shorts, opens grounds and high resistance values or
the alarm circuit wires. If everything looks to be OK, call Technical
Support for further testing measures.
Clean covers both inside and outside using a dry soft cloth or
mild soap and water only. Do not use any oil or alcohol based
solvents to clean the covers, doing so will cloud or etch the cover
and reduce its effi ciency.
The majority of false activations can be attributed to
poor beam alignment. When aligning outdoor beams
accept no less than an "EXCEL" value for the most
stable and trouble free system!! Refer to the installation
manual for acceptable Monitor Jack Voltage Values.
