Follow these instructions to properly install and configure Photon SMART Beams on your Centurion SMART Gate Motor:

Step 1: Power On the Beams
  1. Before or after installing the beams, turn on both the TX (transmitter) and RX (receiver) beams by placing the jumper supplied on the ON and middle pin.
  2. Confirm that both beams display a lit-up LED, indicating they are powered on.

Step 2: Download and Open the MyCentsys Pro App

  1. If you haven't already, download the MyCentsys Pro app from your phone's app store.
  2. Open the app and log into your account.

Step 3: Connect to Your Gate Motor

  1. Once logged in, find your gate motor listed under Available Operators.
  2. Tap on your motor to connect to it.

Step 4: Access Configuration Settings

  1. On the overview page, tap the Configure Circle icon located at the bottom of the screen.
  2. Select Settings from the configuration menu.

Step 5: Enable IR Beam Settings

  1. From the drop-down list, select IR Beams.
  2. Here, you’ll see options like IRB Closing and IRB Opening:
    • IRB Closing prevents the gate from closing if something blocks the beams.
    • IRB Opening prevents the gate from opening if something blocks the beams.
  3. For this guide, we’ll set up IRB Closing. Toggle the IRB Closing switch to the ON position.

Step 6: Set Up Photon Smart Beams

  1. Ensure you do not assign any I/O if you’re using Photon Smart Beams only and do not have wired beams.
  2. Tap on Photon Smart to proceed.
  3. A notification will appear, informing you that adding Photon Smart beams will remove any IRB alarms. Tap Okay to continue.

Step 7: Pair the RX Beam

  1. The app will prompt you to press the button on the RX beam to allow detection. Press the button on the RX beam.
  2. Once detected, you’ll have the option to rename the beam for easy identification later on. After renaming, tap Next.

Step 8: Perform Alignment Test

  1. You’ll be prompted to ensure that the covers are attached and the beams are mounted in place. Once this is confirmed, tap Next to begin the alignment test.
  2. The app will automatically test the alignment of the beams. Once the alignment passes, you’ll receive a notification and can tap Next to continue.

Step 9: Save and Complete Configuration

  1. The app will save the configuration and confirm that the setup was successful.
  2. Tap Finish to exit.

Step 10: Finalize Settings

  1. If you are done adding beams, return to the main screen by tapping the back arrow at the top of the page.
  2. Your Photon Smart beams will now appear under the Photon Smart option, fully configured and ready to use.
