: This function allows you to select the suitable beam interruption time for any environment.
: Prevents fog and condensation from blocking the beams.
: Can easily obtain maximum optical alignment by checking the voltage from this jack.
: Form C relay for more applications.
: N.C., Opens when cover is removed.
: Heating unit (HU-1), Back cover (BC-1) AX-Beam Tower (AX-BT)
: For UL Listed applications, the heating unit (HU-1) shall not be installed with the models AX-350TF and AX-650TF.
: The optical alignment level can be checked at the Reciver.
: Crosstalk is eliminated with 4, channel selectable, beam frequencies. Used when stacking beams
or for long range applications.
: The advantage of this method is the elimination of wiring, from a detector or switch, back to the
control panel.
: The environmental compensation circuit is designed to eliminate false alarms caused by snow,
fog, heavy rain, ice and misalignment.
