Page 2: Product Concept
This product can only be used for the boundary of a building. (NOTE) 2. Do not use BX-80N when 1. Do not use BX-80N for intruder may pass by (i.e. perimeter region of a property entrance of a building). - Page 3 Unique and reliable detection area The BX-80N creates a unique multi-layered, horizontal barrier and just one BX-80N unit can protect a long area, because it is installed in the center of the detection area and protects both sides. It provides four detection areas (upper and lower areas for both sides) and generates an alarm condition only when both upper and lower detection areas are blocked simultaneously.
- Page 4 Optex recommends not only securing the inside of the building but also adding protection to the outside areas. By adding BX-80N, it detects intruders before entry. This invisible barrier offers the first line of defense to a property’s boundary.
- Page 5 Features 2. Features - to reduce false alarms in severe outdoor environmental conditions - Two double-layered detection patterns Both upper and lower detection areas have to be activated to generate an alarm condition. This reduces false alarms, particularly those caused by temperature changes, light reflection and small animals.
- Page 6 The appropriate detection area has to be set for each installation site to prevent false alarms. The lower detection areas of the BX-80N is four-step variable. By setting the appropriate detection area, the BX-80N drastically reduces false alarms as it generates an alarm only when both upper and lower detection areas are blocked simultaneously.
- Page 7 Features Detection area pattern B Both the lower detection areas of BX-80N operate individually. By setting appropriate detection areas for each application, the BX-80N expands its capabilities. Detection area pattern C The angle of all detection areas can be adjusted horizontally by 0 to 3 degrees.

Page 9: Installation Hints
1. Did you install the BX-80N at a suitable height? 2. Did you install the BX-80N in the immediate perimeter of the building? 3. Did you install the BX-80N to the surface of a wall accurately? 4. Did you install the BX-80N parallel to the ground? 5. -
Page 10: Installation Height
Installation hints 1. Installation height Installation height is 0.8 – 1.2m. 2. Install the BX-80N in the immediate perimeter(boundary) of the building BX-80N is designed to be wall- mounted centrally on a building, covering the building perimeter. Be sure to install the BX-80N to the immediate perimeter of the building. - Page 11 Installation hints 3. Install the BX-80N to the surface of a wall For proper activation, installation on the surface has to be accurate otherwise detection figures will not be parallel to the installation surface. 4. Install the BX-80N parallel to the ground...
- Page 12 For this application, please refer to “detection area pattern A & B” of page 6 & 7. Both the lower detection areas of the BX-80N operate individually. Thus the unit allows for an appropriate detection area to be set for each application.
- Page 13 Installation hints 6. Avoid direct light BX-80N includes Double Conductive Shielding to prevent false alarms caused by light disturbances. It is recommended that you avoid too much light being directed or reflected into the BX-80’s field of view as the...
- Page 14 The BX-80N should not be installed in area’s where obstacles in the detection area are likely to affect the proper performance of the unit. If the use of the BX-80N is unavoidable in such circumstances, the appropriate detection area should be set by following either of these 2 methods: 1.
- Page 15 Installation hints 9. Avoid moving objects within detection area Avoid pointing detector towards moving objects (i.e. swaying tree, bushes, flag, etc.). If moving objects are unavoidable, please refer to “detection area pattern A & B” of of page 6 & 7.
