Frequently Asked Questions
- How close does a hand need to be to trigger the sensor?
The detection range is adjustable from 4 to 15 cm. Set it shorter in tight spaces to reduce false triggers. - Can I wire this as Normally Closed or Normally Open?
Yes. The relay provides Normally Open, Normally Closed, and Common terminals. - What is a common installation mistake to avoid?
Setting the detection range too long can cause unwanted activations from people walking past. Adjust the range and confirm the sensor faces the approach direction.
Additional Information
- Toggle mode can be useful for special applications, but most request-to-exit installations use a short trigger timer so the door relocks automatically.
- If surface mounting on masonry or where cabling is not recessed, the optional NEASMB back box can simplify mounting and cable management.
- For consistent operation, mount the switch where users naturally present a hand and avoid placing it where swinging doors or moving signage can pass through the sensor field.
