Adjusting sensetivity

Use flat-head screwdriver to adjust the sensor sensetivity.

Turning the screwdriver clock-wise will increase view distance up to 3 - 4 cm.

Turning the screwdriver counterclock-wise will decrease the view distance down to 1 cm. 

LED indication

The sensor has red LED sticking out on top of the sensor. By default the sensor is configured to:

1. If the door is closed, red light is Off.
2. If the door is open, red light is On.

Technical specifications

...

the Vutlan monitoring unit and supports daisy chaining, allowing multiple sensors to be linked in a series for easy and scalable installations.

For larger systems, the number of sensors and overall cable length can be extended using the VT408 Sensor Extension Unit, allowing for scalable access control across multiple entry points.

This sensor is ideal for securing sensitive areas and ensuring continuous monitoring of entry status.

Used for

The VT530 Access Sensor is primarily used for:

1. Access Control: It monitors the status of doors and windows (open or closed), making it ideal for securing entry points in sensitive areas like server rooms, data centers, and restricted facilities.

2. Intrusion Detection: It can detect unauthorized access attempts by monitoring the status of doors and windows, and alerting security systems when entry points are breached.

3. Automation Systems: Integrated into automation systems, it can trigger actions such as locking doors, activating alarms, or adjusting environmental controls when doors or windows are opened or closed.

4. Server Rack Access Control: It monitors whether server rack doors are open or closed, providing real-time status updates. This is critical for securing sensitive IT equipment and preventing unauthorized access to servers and networking hardware.

This sensor is crucial in environments where constant access monitoring is required for safety, security, or automation purposes.

Installation

Example 1

The magnet needs to be mounted on the door or the window. If the door is open, the switch is Open. If the door is closed, the switch is Closed. You can reverse the logic inside the Web UI interface.

Depending on the construction of the door/window/rack you can use supplied bolts, stickers, or a mounting bracket to mount the sensor and the magnet.
