Operation Instruction
VEK M1H
1-channel induction loop detector
for installation on DIN-rail
Please read these instructions and safety information and warn-
ings attentively before initial operation of the detector !
1 General
Applications:
Barrier
controls
Door and gate controls
Parking and traffic technology
Features:
The induction loop detector VEK M1H is a system for inductive recogni-
tion of vehicles with the following characteristics:
Isolated transformer between loop and detector electronics
Automatic calibration of the system after switching on
Continuous rebalancing of frequency drifts
Usable for single place parking space supervising
Sensitivity independent of the loop inductivity
Presence signal by LED display
Potential free relay contacts for presence and pulse output
Pulse output while leaving the loop
Signalling of loop frequency by LED
Loop connection plug-in for diagnosis
For planning and installation of loops please note our manual "detection
of vehicles with the induction loop detector“.
2 Setting
options
2.1 Sensitivity
The setting of the sensitivity calls the electronics to a value of frequency
deviation which a vehicle must produce for setting the output of the
detector. The sensitivity can be adjusted in 4 steps with the two
DIP-
switches ‘s’
on top of the front panel.

2 (0,16

2.2 Hold time and Reset
The hold time can be adjusted with
DIP-switch ‘h’.
At the completion of hold time it will be displayed "free loop" and the
detector calibrates automatically. The hold time starts with the occupa-
tion of the loop.

An automatic calibration of the loop frequency will be done by the
detector after switch-on of the power supply. In case of short power cuts
<0,1 s there is no calibration.
A reset with calibration can be effected by changing the hold time
setting.
2.3 Operation
principle of the presence relay
The detector has one relay for presence output and another relay for
pulse output each with a potential free contact. The operation principle
of the presence relay can be changed with the
DIP-switch ‘r’

2.4 Frequency
adjustment
The operation frequency of the detector can be adjusted in two steps by
the 3-pole connection jack in the front panel. The permissible frequency
range is 30 kHz to 130 kHz. The frequency depends on the loop induc-
tivity (depending itself on: loop geometry, number of loop turns and loop
lead) and the adjusted frequency step.

In case of a loop failure the detector checks the loop condition cyclically
and continues automatically after elimination.
3.2 LED
signals
The green LED signals that the detector is ready for operation. Via the
red LED, the activation of the relays output is announced depending on
the occupation status of the loop.
