—Vehicle Detector Installation Options
The Smart Touch Controller provides a feature rich interface to four different vehicle detector inputs. Standard box type
11 pin (24VDC or 24VAC) vehicle detectors may be connected in the traditional manner, see page 42. HySecurity also
offers a custom mini detector module that plugs directly into the Smart Touch control board. Not only is the field
installation much faster, but there is a large performance benefit. The HySecurity HY-5A detector is controlled by the
Smart Touch microprocessor to achieve many benefits over common box type detectors:
a. Loop frequency is automatically set and monitored by the Smart
Touch Controller
b. Cross talk between multiple loops is impossible
c. The best operating frequency for each loop is automatically chosen
d. Smart Touch can report the both loop frequency and call strength on
its LCD display
e. Smart Touch will report loop malfunctions and store this data in its
memory.
f.
Most detector or loop faults that could occur are reported and
displayed on the LCD display
There are four vehicle detector inputs available both on the main terminal strip and as direct plug in modules. The vehicle
detector inputs are for the following functions:
1. Free Exit Loop Detector
– “ELD” for short
2. Outside Obstruction Loop Detector
– “OOLD” for short (this is the outside reversing loop)
3. Inside Obstruction Loop Detector
– “IOLD” for short (this is the inside reversing loop)
4. Shadow/Reset Loop Detector
– “SLD” for short (this is for swing gates only)
A combination of HY-5A detectors and box detectors is acceptable
It is not mandatory to use two separate detectors for inner and outer obstruction detection, however the benefits of
using this additional detector are great. Several new features are possible, such as second vehicle tailgating detection,
loitering alert, several anti-tailgating options and selectable non-reversing. Multiple obstruction detectors may be
mandatory because not more than 200ft
² of loop area (61m²) may be connected to any one detector or the sensitivity
becomes inadequate.
