Abstract

An active object detection sensor is provided which allows an installation worker to easily adjust a detection area, and further identify an optimum position of a guide mark in a touch detection area. The active object detection sensor used for opening/closing of automatic an opening/closing unit () includes: an object determination unit () that during an operation mode determines that an object is in a detection area (A) when a detection level of a detection beam received by a receiver () exceeds an operation threshold to output an object detection signal; and a detection level indication unit () that during an adjustment mode indicates the detection level of the detection beam received by the receiver ().
