DESCRIPTION The Infra-Red photocell HL 2-32 set is composed of two transmitters (HL 2-32E) and two receivers (HL 2-32R). There are 4 matched units in each set allowing system A and B coverage of a timing line. All units are internally battery powered only (AA-type x 3). Adjustment of the output impulse time (blocking after initial triggering) is available on the receivers.
PRINCIPE The above photocell works perfectly with a distance between transmitter and receiver of up to 40 m. (130 ft.) in "LOW" position and up to 80 m (260 ft) in "HIGH" position. PHYSICAL SET-UP Transmitters are on one side, receivers are on the other. Do not set up in an opposite manner.

• To line up correctly these double photocells, line up first the upper transmitter with the upper receiver. The bottom photocells are OFF. • When the alignment is correct, turns OFF the upper photocells and ON the bottom one and line up them correctly. •...

New Batteries does not illuminate Used batteries flashes slowly (once every 2 sec.). The batteries insure at least 30 hours of functioning at 20° C III Flat batteries flashes rapidly (once every sec.). The batteries must be replaced. If this arises during the timekeeping the batteries will insure at least 6 hours of functioning at 20°...

only for aiming. You want the red signal LED to extinguish and stay extinguished. Once the red signal LED stays solidly OFF, go back over and readjust the ONE transmitter on the other side of the line. Continue to refine the aim point for BOTH receivers by carefully adjusting the transmitter(s).

We recommend that transmitters and receivers be steadily and solidly mounted on supports such as HL4-3, or on high quality tripods (not permitted for FIS skiing applications - solid surfaces only, not snow). If the support structures are not solid or straight the alignment and stability will be very difficult to achieve.

Maintenance Although this photocell is built to work in hard conditions, we advise you to open sometimes the aluminium cover and to let it dry when the photocell has been exposed to humidity. Special Note In case you use an external power supply, we advise you to place, in any case, 3 internal batteries.
