EMX RAVEN Manuals & Support

EMX RAVEN

The EMX RAVEN is an overhead microwave motion sensor for automatic doors and industrial gates. It runs at 24.150 GHz and has separate relay outputs for vehicles and pedestrians.

Mount it 8 to 23 ft high. It can filter by direction and ignore cross traffic. Set it with the front buttons or the optional RAVEN remote control.

Identify your model

The RAVEN has a hinged polycarbonate housing with FUNCTION and SETTING buttons and red and green LEDs on the front. EMX also makes the HAWK 2 and OWL microwave sensors; the comparison sheet below shows the differences.

Troubleshooting

After power up the red and green LEDs flash for about 10 seconds while the sensor settles. A steady green LED means standby.

LED codes

  • Fast green flashes: the pedestrian relay is active.
  • Fast red flashes: the vehicle relay is active.

False detections

  • Do not aim the sensor at moving door or gate parts or at objects that move in the wind.
  • Keep it more than 6.5 ft from fluorescent lights it faces.
  • Avoid aiming at areas where rain runs or puddles form.

Programming

  • Hold FUNCTION for about 2 seconds to enter programming. Red flashes show the function and green flashes show its setting.

Common questions

Hold the FUNCTION button for about 2 seconds to enter programming. The red LED flash count shows the function and the green LED flash count shows the setting. Press SETTING to change it. The RAVEN remote control does the same from the ground.

Yes. It has a vehicle relay and a separate pedestrian relay, so you can wire only the vehicle output to the gate or door.

It runs on 12 to 36 VDC or 12 to 28 VAC and draws about 50 mA at 24 VDC, so most operator accessory supplies can run it.

Mount it 8 to 23 ft high. At 23 ft the detection field is about 16 ft by 26 ft.
