Presence: When the presence mode of operation is selected, the output will remain activated as long as a vehicle is in the detection zone. The technology used in the sensor is capable of indefinite presence detection, even through power failures. Even if a vehicle arrives while power is removed, the vehicle will be detected when power is restored.
Pulse: When the pulse mode of operation is selected and a vehicle is first detected, the output is activated for a 250 millisecond period and then turned back off. The detector will not output another pulse until the detection zone is clear of all vehicles. The pulse mode used is commonly referred to as Pulse On Entry.
Fail Safe: When in the presence mode of operation and a sensor failure is detected, the output will activate for the duration of the failure. In gate applications this feature is used to automatically open the gate if a sensor fails.
Fail Secure: When in the presence mode of operation and a sensor failure is detected, the output will stay deactivated for the duration of the failure. In gate applications this feature is used to keep the gate closed if a sensor fails.
Reset: When the reset button is pressed the detector will clear any faults in memory, resend the sensitivity setting to the sensor(s), and command the sensor to use the current state of the detection zone as the reference for the no vehicle present condition. A lamp test sequence will also be displayed on both LEDs.
Sensitivity: There are ten selectable sensitivities (0 to 9) with 0 being the least sensitive setting and 9 being the most sensitive setting. When the sensitivity setting is changed the detect LED will begin flashing at a 5 Hz rate (100ms on, 100ms off) until the reset button is pressed to initiate the new setting or the sensitivity is returned to its original setting.
INDICATORS
Green Power LED: The green power LED will be on whenever the input voltage is sufficient for proper operation and the detector is operating normally. It will flash on for 400 milliseconds then off for 400 milliseconds when a sensor is failed. If a failure has occurred and was automatically recovered from, the LED will flash off twice, once every two seconds.
Red Detect LEDs: The red detect LED will indicate the status of the sensor(s). In the presence mode, the LED will be on the entire time that a vehicle is in the detection zone. In the pulse mode, when a vehicle first enters the detection zone, the LED will turn on for 250 milliseconds and then off for 250 milliseconds. After that, the LED will flicker while the vehicle is still in the detection zone and go off when the vehicle finally leaves the detection zone.
Indicator Test: Both LEDs will turn on for 200 milliseconds and then off for 200 milliseconds as a lamp test each time the unit is reset.
