READY LIGHT
This green light appears when full power has been turned on and the unit is ready to
detect. The light will also indicate when an individual inspection has been completed by
the unit and it is ready to accept the next person. Operators should make certain the
green light is visible before any individual is permitted to pass through the detector.
10.5.
ALARM LIGHT
This red light appears when the unit detects a targeted amount of metal on an individ-
ual, according to specifications of the Program and Sensitivity levels that supervisors
have entered into its circuitry. This light will appear even when sound volume is inaudi-
ble. Operators should follow instructions of supervisors in responding to alarms. It is
absolutely necessary that the cause of EVERY ALARM be determined.
10.6.
TYPES OF AUDIO ALARMS
TheCS 5000 has three types of alarms. Each of these unique alarms is designed to call
the operator s attention to current circumstances:
10.6.1.
SET-UP ALARM
Produces two short beeps as a person is walking through the unit. This alarm indicates
that the metal detector is in a set-up mode and is not ready for operation. Wait for
green
READY
light (press
OPERATE
touchpad, if necessary). Person(s) who triggered
the Set-up Alarm must pass through the unit again.
10.6.2.
STANDARD ALARM
Occurs when a red
Alarm Light
appears and a targeted amount of metal is detected
according to Program and Sensitivity levels.
10.6.3.
WARBLE ALARM
Occurs when a large metal mass (a wheelchair) moves through or near the Mag-
nascanner. When a large amount of metal saturates the detector s receiver circuits the
warble alarm indicates that the situation should be corrected before anyone passes
through the detector.
10.7.
BAR GRAPH
This LED display indicates the amount of any metal passing through the unit.
10.8.
TOUCHPADS
Eight touchpads on the overhead Control Panel perform all control functions.
10.8.1.
STANDBY
When this touchpad is pressed, the unit goes into a low power mode, ready to be
returned to full operation when the

pad is touched. Operators should use all
touchpads only as instructed by supervisors.
