FUNCTIONING
The DCF180D photocell can be installed in groups, without interference between the photocells. Each
transmitter and receiver has a 4-way dip switch which assigns a different number to each pair of
photocells. (see Table)

WARNING:
If more photocells pairs are used (max. 16
pairs), the following steps are necessary in
order to grant the correct synchronism:
1- set at least a photocells pair with the code
0 (Dip 1 OFF; Dip 2 OFF; Dip 3 OFF; Dip 4
OFF)
2- connect in series all the clamps nr. 3 of the
transmitters
WARNING: Pairs of photocells must not have the same
number.
IMPORTANT: to ensure operation, as described, the
OFF

The receiver has 2 LEDs. The first LED (L1), below the 4-

way dipswitch, indicates proper signal reception (the signal

is being received if the LED is on ), while the second LED

(L2) only flashes when the signal is present (otherwise it is

longer the LED is on, the better quality signal.

If this photocell is used for a range of less than 2 m, the lens

should be removed and the J1 power jumper on the

transmitter opened. With this photocell, operating speed
can be selected by simply setting the combination number
of the 4-way dip switches. The higher the "number" set
(from 1 to 15, see the table), the slower the operating speed
(from 30 ms to 150 ms).
