PHOTON SMART
INSTALLATION GUIDE
1. Introduction
2. Safety Instructions
The Photon SMART infrared PE safety beams have been
designed to provide an integral element of safety to an
automated system while at the same time aording the
installer considerable freedom during the installation
process. Both the transmitter and recievers are
completely wireless – being powered via
two AA Alkaline batteries each – obviating the need for
tunnelling and digging for the purpose of running cables.
Not only does this arrangement allow for extremely easy
installation when it comes to mounting the beams, but it
dramatically reduces material and labour costs.
1. All installation, repair, and service work to this
product must be done by a suitably qualied
person.
2. Do not in any way modify the components of the
system.
3. Do not leave packing materials (plastic,
polystyrene, etc.) within reach of children as such
materials are potential sources of danger.
4. Dispose of all waste products like packing
materials, according to local regulations.
5. We do not accept any liability caused by improper
use of the product, or for use other than that for
which the product was intended.
6. This product was designed and built strictly for the
use indicated in this documentation. Any other use,
not expressly indicated here, could compromise the
service life/operation of the product and/or be a
source of danger.
7. Anything not expressly specied in these
instructions is not permitted.
The
Photon SMART
PE safety beams are
only compatible with CENTSYS SMART
Controllers!

4. Operation
When connected to a SMART gate operator, the Photon
SMART PE beams aid in preventing personal injury, and/
or property damage due to crushing, when used in a
closing beam conguration.
When used in an opening beam conguration, the Photon
SMART PE beams dramatically reduce the hazardous
actions associated with a gate that is opening, such as
dragging or shearing.
The operation of the Photon SMART PE beams relies
upon the infrared beam being interrupted by a person
or object, and notifying a device it is connected to via a
wireless link, of the interruption.
This icon denotes variations and other aspects
that should be considered during installation.
This icon indicates warning, caution or
attention! Please take special note of
critical aspects that MUST be adhered to in
order to prevent injury.
In addition, Photon SMART
infrared PE beams
are
compatible with the unique Ambush Alarm functionality
found in some of our gate operators.
These operators allow the Photon SMART PE beams
to act as sophisticated perimeter security devices by
activating an alarm on the operator’s controller, or a
third-party alarm system, whenever the PE beams remain
obstructed for a predened period of time

batteries.

7.1 Site Considerations
It is important that the beams/ photocells are mounted on
surfaces that are reasonably parallel to one another. Small
dierences in the angle between the opposing parallel
surfaces can lead to large osets in alignment between
the transmitter and the receiver - the greater the distance
that the infrared beam travels between the transmitter
and the receiver, the larger the oset.
The transmitter and receiver are typically mounted
directly opposite one another, but some leeway is given
in the form of a wide beam being cast should absolute
alignment not be possible.
7.2 Removing the Cover and Preparing for Mounting
Lift the front cover o by leveraging it up from the bottom
of the Photon SMART as illustrated.
FIGURE 2
CENTSYS recommends a height of 750mm, but
the height of the beam must be tailored to suit
the specic requirements of the installation.

To expose the mounting holes, the PCB must be removed
from the enclosure. Press the red plastic lever located at
the top of the enclosure as shown in Figure 4.
Store the PCB safely to prevent damage.

7.3 Mounting
Mark the mounting position of the receiver for a single or
double fastener.
Mount the base of the reciever using the supplied
hardware. Ensure that the rubber “O” ring is used to seal
the Photon SMART enclosure against insect ingress.
For double mounting screws, knock out the thin plastic
lm. Double mounting screws are recommended to better
locate the Photon SMART
PE beams
and prevent them
from twisting.

drill bit.
For mounting to steel tubing, use a 2.3mm steel
drill bit.

7.4 Re-inserting the PCB
Tuck the base of the PCB into the ribs situated at the base
of the plastic enclosure. Thereafter swing the PCB into
place so that the top lever prevents it from falling out.
There should be an audible “click” to lock the PCB in
position. Refer to Figure 6.
7.5 Turning on the Receiver and Transmitter
The transmitter and receiver have been tted with a
‘power up’ jumper. In order to preserve battery life,
the units have been packed with the jumper in the OFF
position.
To power them up, simply position the jumper so that it is
bridging the ON and COMMON pins as illustrated.

7.6 Indicators
The Photon SMART has an LED which provides the user
with visual feedback, and is an alternative to using the
Mobile Application thereby making it easy to commission
the system.
To enter the Alignment Mode, the button shown in Figure
9 must be pressed for longer than 10 seconds; to indicate
that the 10 seconds have expired, the LED will turn o for
a short time and then turn on again.
During the alignment process, the LED will now remain on
if the Beams are aligned and the LED will turn o if the
Beams are misaligned or blocked.
To exit Alignment Mode, the button needs to be pressed
for 10 seconds until it turns on and o for a short time.

onto the smartphone.
1. Once installed, open the application.
2. From the list of operators, select the operator that
is applicable to this installation.
3. Connect to the relevant operator.
4. Tap the three dots at the bottom of the screen,
then enter the settings menu and tap IRBeams.
5. Choose whether this setup is for Closing IRBeams
or Opening IRBeams. Closing IRBeams, is set to
ON by default.
6. Tap
Photon SMART
to begin the conguration.
7. Tap ADD NEW.
8. The application will now scan for the
Photon
SMART
PE beams.
It will then ask to press the button located on the
top left of the receiver PCB, shown in Figure 9.

1. Once it is connected, it will provide the option to
give the
Photon SMART
pair a custom name.
2. Tap NEXT, and the alignment process will begin.
The transmitter’s position may need to be adjusted
until alignment is achieved. A minimimum of 10
seconds alignment is needed before being able to
proceed.
3. Once alignment is acheived, mark the location of
the transmitter on the mounting surface.
4. To prevent damage, switch o the transmitter.
5. Mount the transmitter following steps in
Section 7.3, and switch on the transmitter.
6. Tap next, and nish.
7. The paired
Photon SMART
PE beams will be seen
under the IRB
Photon SMART
screen.
The beam lenses MUST be tted on the
receiver during the alignment procedure
as they serve to focus the infrared beam.
Failure to do so may result in an inability to
achieve alignment. Refer to Figure 11.
Do not screw closed until the beams have
been aligned.
Insert and fasten the ”shorter” screw provided to
close the two enclosures together, followed by inserting
the plastic cover provided as shown in Figure 12.
9. Completing the Installation
9.1 Closing
Close the units by placing the front cover onto the base
as shown in Figure 10. Do not force the cover, rather
place it over as illustrated.

9.2 Final Testing
To test the operation of the Photon SMART PE beams,
connect to the relevant SMART Controller via the
MyCentsys Pro App, block and unblock the Photon
SMART infrared beams/photocells with an object such
as your hand; the relevant IRBeam symbol on the
Overview Page will indicate if the Photon SMART PE
beams are obstructed or clear.
