Sensitivity Adjustment
Maximum sensitivity can be used for most applications and is advised for applications with
Connection contaminated environments e.g. dirt, water and dust. Increase the sensitivity to maximum by
turning the potentiometer to full clockwise position.
NOTICE!
Sensitivity adjustment may be required in applications where objects to be detected are small

3 Select target object with smallest dimensions and most translucent surface.

Place target object between remote transmitter and receiver sensors. If the output

proceed to step 5.
Decrease the sensitivity by turning the potentiometer counter clockwise until the

6 Remove target object. Observe the output status has changed.

If the signal level is low, the green LED (signal status) will go off. In general, it is
recommended to increase the sensitivity till the LED goes on and to check the
following:
Alignment of sensors
Transmitter and receiver sensors are within sensing range
Sensor heads are not excessively contaminated

Time Delay Adjustment

NOTICE!
PA 11 X 4UXT models For use as an entrapment protection device acc. to UL325 set both delays to 0 (counter
clockwise).
Connection Steps
1 Check the power supply and output of the amplifier type. The on delay enables output signal to only activate if an object in the detection area is present
for the adjusted time period. (In Dark operated mode)
2 Make sure power is off. Connect wires to the 11-pin socket according to wiring diagram.
The off delay enables output signal to remain activated for the adjusted time period.
3 Plug-in the amplifier into the 11-pin socket. Turn power on. The time delay is adjustable between 0 - 10 sec.

Increase or decrease on delay by turning potentiometer clockwise or
