Troubleshooting and Maintenance

5.3 Test Mode

Opening a switch or relay contacts connected to the TEST1 and 

TEST2 terminals of the emitter, or supplying a voltage of less 

than 3V dc to TEST1 only, simulates a blocked condition, for 

testing purposes .
To verify proper operation, measure the voltage between TEST1 

(terminal 5) and dc COM (terminal 2 or 8) of the emitter:
•  If the voltage is 10 to 30V dc, the emitter should be in Run 

mode and beam scanning should be occurring. If not, check 

the +24V dc (terminal 3) to verify proper supply voltage. 

If the supply voltage is not within the rated supply voltage 

specifications, correct the supply voltage and recheck emitter 

operation. If the supply voltage is correct, TEST1 is 10 to 30V 

dc and the emitter does not operate properly (Run mode with 

beam scanning). Replace emitter.

•  If the voltage is less than 3V dc, the emitter should be in Test 

mode and no scanning should be occurring . If not in Test

mode, replace emitter.

5.4 Servicing and Maintenance

Cleaning

EZ-SCREEN System emitters and receivers are constructed of 
aluminum with a yellow painted finish and are rated NEMA 4, 13 
(IP65). Lens covers are acrylic. Emitters and receivers are best 
cleaned using mild detergent or window cleaner and a soft cloth. 
Avoid cleaners containing alcohol, as they may damage the 
acrylic lens covers.

The accessory interface module is constructed of polycarbonate
and is rated NEMA 1 (IP20). It may be dusted, but avoid contact 
with any liquids. 

Warranty Service

The EZ-SCREEN System is designed for reliability. Do not 
open the emitter or receiver housings, other than to access 
the configuration port or to make terminal connections. Do not 
open the housing of the interface module, if used. They contain 
no field-replaceable components. If repair is necessary, do 
not attempt to repair an emitter, receiver, or interface module 
yourself; return the unit to the factory. 

If it ever becomes necessary to return a system component to 
the factory, please do the following:

1.   Contact the Banner Factory Application Engineering group at 

the address or numbers listed below:

Banner Engineering Corp.,

Application Engineering Group

9714 Tenth Avenue North

Minneapolis, MN 55441

Phone: 763.544.3164 or

Toll-Free (US only): 888.373.6767

email: [email protected]

 They will attempt to troubleshoot the system from your 
description of the problem . If they conclude that a
component is defective, they will issue an RMA (Return 
Merchandise Authorization) number for your paperwork, and 
give you the proper shipping address.

2.   Pack the component(s) carefully. Damage which occurs 

during return shipping is not covered by warranty.
