1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The DM60 microwave movement detector has been designed to control the opening of automatic and industrial doors. The device is very
versatile and can detect moving persons as well as larger bodies such as motor vehicles in general over surface areas from 1 to 8 square
metres. This versatility is achieved thanks to the possibility of setting the detector's operating range as desired and of adjusting its height of
installation from between 2.5 and 6 metres by appropriately directing the radar by means of the horizontal and vertical securing screw.
The DM60 essentially consists of a signal receiver-transmitter. Each device is equipped with a LED (B) which signals movement detection
and relay energizing, as well as with a trimmer (C) for adjusting detection range (Fig. 1).
It also comes with a metal support bracket (A) complete with a securing screw (D) which permits to adjust the device in height (± 45°) and
lengthwise (± 90°), and with a pre-wired 2,5 m-long power cable.
2. APPLICATIONS
The high protection class (IP55) of the box with which it is supplied and the possibility of adjusting both its operating range through the
appropriate trimmer (C) and its vertical and horizontal setting through the appropriate securing screw (D) , make the DM60 ideal for both
indoor and outdoor installation on automatic and industrial doors.
The volume detection threshold of the DM60 can also be adjusted by appropriately acting on the aforementioned devices so as to make it
detect only bodies of certain dimensions and to cover the full range of all possible vehicles.
For range adjustment, see Figures 2 & 3.

5. MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
Mount the DM60 only in vibration-free sites and on vibration-free surfaces at a height of between 2.5 and 6 metres from the ground. Also
make sure that it is adequately protected against weather agents and from the risk of accidental impacts.
To avoid false tripping, do not install the detector in areas with bodies in continuous movement. Take care to prevent the detector from being
struck by direct beams from fluorescent lamps in the vicinity. A few examples of installation are shown in Fig. 2 .
Vertical and/or horizontal orientation of the detector towards the centre of the area to be controlled is achieved by loosening the bracket clamp
screw (D, Fig. 1 ). Set desired detection range by means of the adjusting trimmer (C) (Fig. 3). A setting such that no movement can be
detected below 20 ÷ 30 cms from the ground is recommended.
This setting is advisable in order to reduce the risk of the device being tripped by noise, i.e. by vibrations which could inte rfere with the normal
operation of the DM60.
