SUGGESTED PARAMETERS FOR THREE GUN SECURITY LEVEL
Program 1 or 2
Baseline Sensitivity 35 to 50%
10.7.
HIGHER SECURITY WEAPONS DETECTION
The security level includes the detection of a variety of small handguns and most Knives.
10.8. SUGGESTED PARAMETERS FOR HIGHER SECURITY WEAPONS
DETECTION
Program 3
Baseline Sensitivity 35 to 70%
As baseline sensitivity increases so does security level.

INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS
When people being screened wear footwear with steel protection in the toe caps; reduce
zone 6 (floor Zone) sensitivity to avoid unwanted alarms.

ELIMINATING FALSE ALARMS
False alarms can be defined as alarm events that occur when no one is near the detector.
These events are caused by external electromagnetic interface of a frequency comparable
the operating frequency of the detector. In practice, the detector interprets the interference
as a signal caused by metal.
The operating frequency can be changed by changing the values of Skew Frequency.
There are 8 different combinations of frequencies from 1 to 8.

OPERATING MULTIPLE DETECTORS IN PARALLEL
If multiple detectors must be operated in parallel it is necessary to operate them at
different frequencies. Power-up one unit at a time. If first unit is
operating in a stable fashion turn-on the second unit. If no interaction
occurs turn the third unit on. If one of the units interacts change the
unit frequency.
Try to maintain a physical separation of three feet (0.9 meters) or
more.

ACHIEVING UNIFORM DETECTION
Achieving uniform detection is very important as it reduces unwanted
alarms. To test uniformity use tests object such an OTP or a 2 inch
