WIRING VEHICLE DETECTORS 

 
STAND ALONE VEHICLE DETECTOR

 - Secure the detector to the 

pedestal of the Tower frame or in a remote electrical box, 

NEVER

 in the 

control/mechanical unit box 
Hook-up the power and loop wires on the detector harness according to 
the manufacturer's instructions.  Crimp 1/4" quick disconnect lugs to the 
RELAY COMMON and PRESENCE OUTPUT wires on the detector 
harness.  The RELAY COMMON wire is connected to terminal 4,  
PHOTOELECTRIC POWER, on the control box 6 position terminal 
strip.  The PRESENCE OUTPUT wire is connected to terminal 5, 
SIGNAL.  See Figure 11,  for a typical installation. 
 
 
 
Set the detector frequency and sensitivity switches on the detector 
according to the manufacturer's instructions. 
 

WIRING RADIO RECEIVERS 

 
A 3-prong radio receiver, such as the Allstar Model 9931, can be 
installed at the 6 terminal strip labeled, “

CLASS 2 -

 

24 VOLT S

” and 

0 1 2 3 4 5

” on the top of the control/mechanical unit box.  Review 

Figure 10, Page 10.  With the receiver laid flat across the top of the 
control/mechanical unit enclosure, attach the three prongs to terminals 1 
2 3 as shown in Figure 10.  The radio receiver installation is now 
complete. 

Some 3-prong radio receivers may use a different pin out from the
