GTO-R4222 Manual
PHOTOELECTRIC DUAL BEAM DETECTOR
Owners Manual
R4222

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.
For use with all GTO Access Systems and Mighty Mule AC and DC powered gate operators.

Mounting Cautions
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:

Mounting Height Spread of Beam

Where obstructions (plants, fences, etc.) are between the receiver and the sender.
Sensing Area

Where the mounting surface is unstable.

Where sunlight and headlights shine directly into the front of the receiver.

Beam Alignment Up/Down Direction

Range

Connecting Photo Beams to GTO Access Systems and Mighty Mule Control Boards

IMPORTANT: DO NOT use Photo Beams on systems charged with solar panels.
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.

Wiring Precautions
· 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 overtighten the screws
as this may strip the threads in the plastic

Beam Alignment
Adjusting Optical Axis with the Viewfinder
1. With the POWER connected and the RECEIVER and TRANSMITTER covers removed adjust the horizontal pivot, and the vertical adjustment screw using the built-in viewer. Look through the viewfinder on either side and adjust to put the opposite sensor in the middle of the cross-hairs in the view finder. The GOOD LED should be on. (Adjust the light axis until the indication lamp is on.)
The brighter the LEVEL (green) LED the more precise the alignment of the beams.

Adjusting Optical Axis with a Voltmeter
If you have a voltmeter, the best method of adjusting the optical axis is to measure the signal level at the test probe points.
1. Insert the voltmeter probes into the test points on the side of the receiver.
2. Adjust the horizontal angle and vertical angle until the voltage is at maximum.
3. If a voltage of 1.2v or above cannot be reached, the transmitter and/or receiver should be readjusted.

Beam Interruption Time Adjustment
Adjusts the amount of time between the beam being broken and the normally open relay closing. Adjust time adjustment dial from (1) detecting fast moving objects to (5) detecting slow moving objects depending on your type of application and environment. The factory setting is set to 1 to detect fast moving objects.

VERIFY CORRECT OPERATION

After installation, confirm correct operation by suitable walking tests. Refer to the appropriate LED indicators during the walking test and ensure the gate opener operates in the correct manner.

Condition
Transmitting Beam Not Blocked
Beam Blocked

Indication
POWER LED is ON GOOD and LEVEL LEDs are ON
ALARM LED is ON

TROUBLESHOOTING

Symptom
Transmitter LED does not light.

Possible Cause
Improper voltage supplied.

Receiver LEDs do not light.

Improper voltage supplied.

Alarm LED does not light, even when beams are blocked.
When beams are blocked, receiver LED lights are ON, but not alarm.

1. Beams reflect to the receiver by other objects.
2. Both beams are not blocked simultaneously.
3. Beam interruption time is too short.
1. Wiring is short circuited. 2. Wiring connection is not good.

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.

Remedy
Check the power supply and wiring.
Check the power supply and wiring.
1. Remove the reflecting object or change optical axis direction.
2. Block both beams. 3. Increase beam interruption time
adjustment. Check wiring and connection spot.
1. Adjust the optical axis. 2. Remove the obstructions. 3. Clean with window cleaner and a
soft cloth.

Intermittent Alarm (detection)
*If you're experiencing false detections then increase the time adjustment by 1 increment at a time until the photo beam functions as desired.

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 interruption time out of adjustment.

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.
