## Summary description

VIDOS FT01 is a photocell sensor set (transmitter and receiver) designed for safety and presence detection in automatic gates, garage doors and access control systems. The TX/RX pair provides an optical interruption beam to prevent collisions, detect obstacles and enhance automated door/gate operation. Suitable for installation in residential and light-commercial automation setups.

## Long description

VIDOS FT01 is a photocell sensor set consisting of a transmitter and a receiver designed to provide a safety beam for automatic gates, garage doors and access control systems. The paired TX/RX unit creates an infrared optical path that detects interruptions caused by people, vehicles or objects, allowing controllers to stop or reverse movement to prevent collisions and improve operational safety. The compact modules are intended for integration with residential and light-commercial automation setups and are compatible with standard gate and door control systems.
Advantages
The two-unit configuration ensures reliable beam alignment and consistent presence detection across the protected opening. Infrared transmission provides low-power, contactless sensing that is unaffected by physical wear. The sensors are designed for straightforward mounting and wiring to common automation controllers, offering continuous obstacle monitoring without mechanical parts. Their design supports clear detection at typical gate and garage door heights while keeping installation and maintenance requirements minimal.
Suitable for
Automatic swing and sliding gates at residential properties
Garage doors and sectional doors
Access-controlled entrances and parking barriers
Light-commercial loading bays and service doors
Key specifications
Sensing principle: infrared optical beam interruption
Set composition: transmitter (TX) and receiver (RX)
Intended mounting: side-by-side across an opening at gate/door height
Electrical interface: wired connection for integration with gate/door controllers
Operating use: obstacle detection and safety beam for automated movement control
Typical environments: outdoor residential and light-commercial installations
How to use
Install the transmitter and receiver facing each other on opposite sides of the gate or door opening so that the infrared beam crosses the path to be protected. Connect the wiring to the automation controller in accordance with the controller manufacturer’s input specifications and the sensor set wiring diagram. Adjust alignment so the receiver reliably senses the transmitter beam across the full range of the opening. After powering the system, test interrupting the beam to verify the controller responds by stopping or reversing gate/door movement as configured.
Usage recommendations
Position the photocells at a height appropriate to detect the smallest expected obstruction while avoiding false triggers from small animals or debris. Ensure secure mounting and proper weatherproofing of cable entry points. Regularly check alignment and clean the optical surfaces to maintain reliable detection. Follow the automation controller manufacturer’s safety wiring requirements and local regulations when integrating the sensors.
