Printed in China for GTO Access Systems
The GTO Access Systems Photoelectric Dual Beam Detector uses dual beam and through-beam technology
to reduce false detections when detecting obstructions. When the beams detect the presence of a moving
object, the detection will cause the gate(s) to stop and reverse to the fully open position. As long as the
beam is obstructed the gate(s) will remain open. Not compatible with solar powered gate operators.

Be sure that the optical axis is never obstructed. (The optical axis is both the vertical and horizontal
range of detection, or beam, between the transmitter and receiver)
Do not mount the detector in the following conditions:
When using more than one set make
sure to alternate the transmitters
and detectors as above.

2. Feed the wire through the mounting pole.
1. Remove the Photo Beam cover (as shown in step 1 above).
3. Using the Mounting Plate and Bracket secure the Photo
Beam to the mounting pole.
Back to Back Installation
(Refer to the gure above)
1. Remove Photo Beam
cover by loosening the
cover holding screw, but
DO NOT REMOVE THE
SCREW ALL THE WAY.
3. Remove the rubber
knockout and use the
screw holes to mount
the unit.
2. Pull the wire through the
wiring hole at the top of the
unit, from back to front.
4. Mount the Photo Beam on
the wall while running the wire
into the wiring location in the
wall.

• Wire with 16awg minimum (RB509)
• 300 ft (91.4m) max length
• Be sure to capture the wire ends under
the wire clamp plates.
• Avoid frayed ends on wires that might
produce a short circuit.
• Be careful not to over tighten the screws
as this may strip the threads in the plastic

Wiring Precautions
Make sure the power switch to the opener is turned off before connecting safety device
wiring to the terminal blocks. Unplugging the transformer does not turn power to the
opener OFF.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT use Photo Beams on systems charged with solar panels.

Symptom Possible Cause Remedy
Transmitter POWER LED does not light. Improper voltage supplied. Check the power supply and wiring.
Receiver POWER LED do not light. Improper voltage supplied. Check the power supply and wiring.
Alarm LED does not light,
even when beams are blocked.
1. Beams reflect to the receiver
by other objects.
2. Both beams are not blocked
simultaneously.
3. Beam response time is too short.
1. Remove the reflecting object or change
optical axis direction.
2. Block both beams.
3. Adjust Beam response time.
When beams are blocked, receiver LED
lights are ON, but not alarm.
1. Wiring is short circuited.
2. Wiring connection is not good.
Check wiring and connection spot.
The alarm indication lamp of receiver is
always on.
1. Optical axis is not properly adjusted.
2. There are obstructions between the
transmitter and the receiver.
3. The outer covers are dirty.
4. Wiring is short circuited.
1. Adjust the optical axis.
2. Remove the obstructions.
3. Clean with window cleaner and a
soft cloth.
4. Repair wiring.
Intermittent Alarm (detection)
1. Bad wiring.
2. Fluctuating power supply / voltage.
3. Intermittent blockage between the
transmitter and the receiver.
4. The receiver or transmitter is unstable.
5. Blocked by other moving objects.
6. Beam response time incorrect for specific
installation.
1. Check wiring.
2. Check the power supply.
3. Remove the obstruction or relocate.
4. Fix the mounting.
5. Adjust the optical axis.
6. Adjust interruption time or change
installation position.
