C. Prerequisites to Installing the PhotoeyeVault

C.1 Customer/contractor is responsible for the following items to be ready at the site ahead of

installation of the PhotoeyeVault

C.1.1 Concrete mounting pad with minimum specifications of 14" diameter x 12" deep

TORXUN recommends use of cylindrical footing (see drawing inset in Fig C.1)

C.1.2 Rigid conduit 3/4” diameter running up through the center of the concrete pad extending to

about 12" off the pad surface; conduit runs buried under the pavement between the gate

operator and the pad; Fig C.1 (consult local electrical code for buried conduits)

C.1.3 Pull enough length of wires through the conduit to connect the photoeyes to the gate operator

in final installation steps

Power wire specifications: 12-24 VDC capacity, #18 wire, 2 wires

Control & signal wires specification: #18 wire, 2 wires

All wires to be routed through the conduit described in item C.1.2

Fig C.1: Installation Schematics

Torxun recommends the use of cylindrical concrete footing for ease and symmetry of aiming the

PhotoeyeVault and the photoeye across the drive path (see inset).

C.2 The PhotoeyeVault, with the photoeye in it, is installed and typically positioned a few inches before

the vehicle gate line such that the photoeye transmitter projects a beam across the opening of the

vehicle gate to the receiver or reflector.

Note: The photoeye is aimed directly to the receiver or reflector across the other end of the gate

with the projected beam parallel to the gate opening cutting through the vehicle drive path.

D. Installation Steps

Step 1 –Unbox the PhotoeyeVault Kit

Note: The EMX photoeyes are sold separately; they are not part of the kit

•Remove the PhotoeyeVault from the product box

•Check each item referring to section A –the kit parts list

Step 2 –Mount the Photoeye and PhotoeyeVault

2.1 IRB-MON / IRB-4X Photoeye (for IRB-RET see 2.2)

The IRB-MON / IRB-4X has both the Transmitter and the Receiver unit.

The steps to attach the units to the PhotoeyeVault are the same.

2.1.1 Mount the IRB-MON / IRB-4X Photoeye to the PhotoeyeVault

•Loosen and remove the PhotoeyeVault body screws (8 screws), set screws aside

•Remove the backplate of the PhotoeyeVault

•There are four (4) base pegs on the inside face of the backplate where the photoeye

must be mounted

•Remove the front acrylic cover of the IRB-MON / IRB-4X unit

•Remove the knock-out cover at the bottom of the photoeye housing

•Center the photoeye housing to the four base pegs inside the PhotoeyeVault backplate

•Use the four (4) screws (included in the kit) to attach the photoeye housing to the

respective base pegs on the backplates

•Set aside the backplate with the attached photoeye

2.1.2 Mount the PhotoeyeVault on the Footing Pad

•Move the PhotoeyeVault front cover over the footing pad

•Sit the front cover down on the concrete footing (pad) passing the conduit and wires

through the baseplate access hole, (Fig 2.3 next page)

•Proceed to Step 3.1

2.2 IRB-RET Photoeye

The IRB-RET is a retroreflective photoeye. It requires a

reflector across the monitored distance to reflect back

the photoeye beam.

2.2.1 Mount the IRB-RET Photoeye to the PhotoeyeVault

•Loosen and remove the PhotoeyeVault body screws (8 screws), set screws aside

•Remove the backplate of the PhotoeyeVault

•The IRB-RET comes with a mounting bracket of its own

•There are two (2) base pegs on the inside face of the front cover where the photoeye

bracket must be mounted

•Use the two (2) screws with nuts (included with the IRB-RET unit) to mount the bracket

•Follow the instructions in the EMX manual to install the IRB-RET unit to the bracket

•Follow the instructions in the EMX manual to install the reflector at the opposite side of

the sensing zone

•Proceed to Step 3.2

2.2.2 Mount the PhotoeyeVault on the Footing Pad

•Move the PhotoeyeVault front cover over the footing pad

•Sit the front cover down on the concrete footing (pad) passing the conduit and wires

through the baseplate access hole, (Fig 2.3 below)

•Proceed to Step 3.2

Step 3 –Connect Wiring to the Photoeye

3.1 IRB-MON / IRB-4X Photoeye (for IRB-RET see 3.2)

Note: Installations where the conduit is not embedded in the pad, photoeye wires can

be coursed through a knock-out access hole located at the side face of the front cover

of the PhotoeyeVault. (See Fig A –Part #4)

•Refer to the wiring guide in the EMX manual for wiring the IRB-MON / IRB-4X photoeye

•Check to see that power to the gate operator and photoeyes is switched off

•Move the PhotoeyeVault backplate near the footing pad

•Thread enough length of the wires from the conduit through the knock-out hole of the

photoeye housing

•Connect the corresponding wiring to the proper terminals on the IRB-MON / IRB-4X

following directions in the EMX manual

•Coil up the remaining wire slack under the photoeye housing, secure with electrical

tape or wire-ties

•Assemble the backplate to the front cover and secure with screws (8x)

•Proceed to Step 4.1

3.2 IRB-RET Photoeye

Note: Installations where the conduit is not embedded in the pad, photoeye wires can

be coursed through a knock-out access hole located at the side face of the front cover

of the PhotoeyeVault. (See Fig A –Part #4)

•Refer to the wiring guide in the EMX manual for wiring the IRB-RET photoeye

•Check to see that power to the gate operator and photoeyes is switched off

•Thread enough length of the wires from the conduit through the bracket and the

IRB-RET housing

•Switch power back on the gate operator/system

•Having both PhotoeyeVaults over their respective footing pads, proceed to aim the

photoeyes across to each other

•Conduct a series of aim and test to ensure proper operation of the photoeyes; follow

aiming instructions in the EMX manual for IRB-MON / IRB-4X

•Upon successfully aiming the transmitter and receiver pair, mark the position on the

respective base plates of the PhotoeyeVaults and corresponding pads

4.2 IRB-RET Photoeye

•At the operator side, connect all wiring to the gate operator terminals following the

EMX wiring diagram for the IRB-RET

•Conduct safety checks before restoring power to the gate operator and the gate system

•Switch power back on the gate operator/system

•Follow the instructions in the EMX manual to program and calibrate the IRB-RET

•Conduct a series of aim and test to ensure proper operation of the photoeye as per

instructions in the EMX manual

•Upon successfully aiming the emitter unit and reflector pair, mark the position on the

base plate of the PhotoeyeVault

Step 5 –Conclude the Installation

•To each PhotoeyeVault baseplate, drill the first mounting hole using the baseplate as a jig,

referencing the position markers established earlier in the process

•Conduct a round of final tests on the photoeyes to ensure correct aim

•Adjust aims accordingly if values deviate from suggested readings
