Checking operation mode
In normal mode shortly press the
push-button.
The green LED stops shining for one
second, then it will show the current
operating mode:
1 x flashing = operation with one
and switching point

2 x flashing = window mode
3 x flashing = reflective barrier
After a break of 3 s the green LED
shows the output function:
1 x flashing = NOC
2 x flashing = NCC
Maintenance
microsonic sensors are maintenance-
free. In case of excess caked-on dirt
we recommend cleaning the white
sensor surface
