Description
The actuator of this Unit is consist of a pair of IR part, emitter side and receiver side(silicon phototransistor). The IR emitter will keep sending IR wave while the receiver will keep detecting the IR wave. The IR is directly emitted from one side to another side, so if there's no object in between, the receiver side would get the IR signal. This is how it detecting a break an electrical connection.
