CAUTION
All external entrapment protection sensors must be wired to the SENSOR COM terminal for monitoring purposes.
Review sensor wiring diagrams found in Wiring HySecurity Sensors: Smart Touch on page 121.
Until the gate operator receives a command to run (open or close command), the sensors are not receiving
power. However, to temporarily power sensors and check that the gate operator is monitoring the sensors
properly, turn on Photo Eye Align mode.
To turn on Photo Eye Align mode, take the following steps:
1. Access the User Menu and select PE. (Press the Menu button twice to access
the User Menu. See Menu Mode Navigation Buttons chart on the previous
page.)
2. Press NEXT and continue to press NEXT until PE 0 (OFF) appears.
3. Press SELECT.
PE characters begin blinking.
4. To turn ON photo eye alignment and temporarily power the sensors, press
NEXT so PE 1 (ON) appears.
5. Press SELECT.
PE stops blinking.
6. Press MENU to exit Menu Mode and return to Run Mode.
NOTE: The Photo Eye Align mode turns OFF with the next limit contact. For more information, see Photo Eye
Alignment Feature on page 104.

LED Status
LEDs next to the sensor connections will be lit when no power
is being applied. When PE is turned ON, the LEDs turn off. If
they do not turn off, check for wiring issues such as a short or
misapplied relay COM connections. See CAUTION on page
38.
When PE is ON, the LEDs associated with the sensor devices
will be lit if the sensors are properly connected and sensors
are grounded. The LEDs turn off when the ground circuit is
removed.
