Sensor installation recommendations (for Slide gate)

Install the sensors with the layout shown below.
When the installation direction or installation height is improper, the sensor will not operate properly.
- The sensor angles shown below are for vehicles entering parallel to the drive way. The sensor angle should
match the angle of the vehicle (not the drive way).
Installation height : The bottom of the sensor is 500 mm (20in.) from the ground
*1︓Setting a distance greater than recommended may create non-detection area between the activation
and protection sensor.
