Quick Guide from the Manual

The BEA EAGLE and EAGLE HM are unidirectional activation sensors for automatic pedestrian and high-mount doors. Key installation requirements include:

  • Mounting Height: EAGLE (6' to 13'), EAGLE HM (10' to 16'6").
  • Power Supply: 12-24 VAC/VDC.
  • Antenna Selection: Standard EAGLE supports narrow or wide antennas; EAGLE HM supports narrow only.
  • Safety: Do not touch electrical parts, avoid vibrations, and do not cover the sensor.

Description and Components

The sensor consists of the following main parts:

Sensor components including antenna and connectors

  • Main connector for wiring.
  • Antenna (Wide or Narrow).
  • Push buttons for programming.
  • Cover.

Installation and Wiring

Follow these steps to install the sensor:

Wiring diagram
Wiring diagram
  1. Apply the mounting template to the desired location.
  2. Drill one hole for the cable and two holes for the mounting screws.
  3. Pull the cable through the hole.
  4. Connect the wires to the main connector:
    • 1: RED - POWER SUPPLY +
    • 2: BLACK - POWER SUPPLY -
    • 3: WHITE - COM
    • 4: GREEN - NO (Normally Open) OR 5: GREEN - NC (Normally Closed)
  5. Position the cable and mount the sensor firmly.

Mechanical Adjustments

You can adjust the detection field by changing the antenna angle and type:

  • Antenna Type: Choose narrow or wide based on the required detection zone width.
  • Lateral/Vertical Adjustment: Adjust the antenna angle to position the detection field. BEA recommends a 15° tilt angle when mounting at the maximum height.

Settings

The sensor can be programmed using a remote control or the onboard push buttons. Key settings include:

  • Zone Size: Adjusts the detection area.
  • Immunity Filter: Helps prevent false detections.
  • Detection Mode: Choose between two-way, one-way towards, one-way with motion tracking, or one-way away.
  • Output Configuration: Set to Active (NO) or Passive (NC).
  • Hold-Open Time: Adjusts how long the door stays open.
  • Door Control: Set to auto, open, or closed.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues, check the following:

  • Door remains closed/LED off: Check wiring and power supply. Ensure door control setting (F2) is set to 1 (automatic).
  • Door does not react: Check output configuration.
  • Door opens/closes constantly: Ensure the sensor is fixed properly, increase immunity filter, or reduce zone size.
  • Door opens for no reason: Ensure detection mode is unidirectional, increase immunity filter, or change antenna angle.
  • LED flashes quickly after unlocking: Enter the correct access code.

Technical Specifications

  • Technology: Microwave and microprocessor.
  • Frequency: 24.150 GHz.
  • Supply Voltage: 12-24 VAC ±10%; 12-24 VDC +30% / -10%.
  • Degree of Protection: IP54.
  • Temperature Range: -4 to 131 °F.

Common problems

Door remains closed and LED is off

Check wiring and power supply. Ensure door control setting (F2) is set to 1 (automatic).

Door opens and closes constantly

Ensure sensor is fixed properly, increase immunity filter, or reduce zone size.

Door opens for no reason

Ensure detection mode is unidirectional, increase immunity filter, or change antenna angle.

LED flashes quickly after unlocking

Sensor needs access code. Enter correct code or cycle power to access without code for the first minute.

Before use

  • Verify power supply is 12-24 VAC/VDC.
  • Check mounting height (Eagle: 6'-13', Eagle HM: 10'-16'6").
  • Ensure the sensor is mounted in front of the door (horizontal) or above the door (vertical).
  • Select the correct antenna (Narrow or Wide) for the application.
  • Ensure the sensor is not near neon lamps or moving objects.

Specs in practice

Detection mode: motion
The sensor detects movement within the configured zone.

Images and diagrams

  • Wiring diagram shows 5 terminals: 1 (Red/Power+), 2 (Black/Power-), 3 (White/COM), 4 (Green/NO), 5 (Green/NC).

Model compatibility

  • EAGLE HM only supports the narrow antenna.
  • Standard EAGLE supports both narrow and wide antennas.
