Step 1
1. Determine which side of door(swing or approach) position sensor is to be installed. Align template to pivot edge of door accordingly.
Affix template. Template height can be between 6'7" to 8'2"(2.0 m to 2.5 m) from floor to top of template.
NOTE
When templates are aligned properly the 3/8"(10 mm) pass thru hole ("A" on template) will be aligned with each other on both sides of door.
2. On the side of the door where the position sensor is to
be installed, drill two 1/8"(3.2 mm) holes for position sensor
mounting plate as indicated by template.
(one side of door leaf only)
Step 2
1. On the side of the door where the position sensor is to be installed take a OA-603 T
sensor head and adjust the left and right dipswitch settings as indicated by the
corresponding template. Verify threshold and swing angle adjustments are set to
deep (+5 degrees).
NOTE
Each template location will have different dipswitch settings.
2. Remove the template and attach the sensor head loosely to the door leaf with two
of the nine supplied screws.
3. Align the position sensor mounting plate with the appropriate mounting holes and
securely fasten to the door leaf with two mounting screws.
4. Go back and tighten the screws securing the OA-603 T sensor head to the door.
5. On the opposite side of the door leaf, take a OA-603 T sensor head and set the left
and right dipswitch settings as indicated by the corresponding template.
Verify threshold and swing angle adjustments are set to deep (+5 degrees).

Step 3
1. To attach the position sensor to the base plate, route
the sensor connector wire and change the direction
of the wiring cover based on hinge location when
facing the door.

Step 5
1. Align and affix top of template with mark achieved in step 4.
2. Drill two 1/8"(3.2 mm) mounting holes. Drill 3/8"(10 mm) hole if routing cable thru jamb for concealed wiring (3/8"(10 mm) hole not required for surface
wiring applications).

3. Drill four sensor mounting holes (two on each side of door leaf, 1/8"(3.2 mm)
as indicated by templates.
4. Drill 3/8"(10 mm) holes for pass thru cable as indicated on templates.

7. Repeat this process for each door leaf.
These settings are optimal for most applications. However,
operating conditions, environmental conditions and traffic
flow may require changes to these settings.
For in depth explanations of adjustments and dipswitch
settings refer to the adjustment section (page 1-5) of this
manual.

2. To attach to base plate locate the position sensor slightly high and to the side of the plate.
Slide in horizontally and then down vertically.
Push it from the upper part a little.
Step 4
1. To properly locate the door jamb Wiring base, slide the Wiring cover on to the
Wiring base and center it from top to bottom.
2. Hold Wiring base on jamb rotate door from closed to full open. Ensure no
excessive stretching or binding of the loop occurs(may need to move base up or
down to achieve.) Mark top of Wiring base to align mounting template later.
