CONNECTING HY5B VEHICLE DETECTORS
There are four vehicle detector inputs available on the SmartDC Controller:
•
Free Exit Loop Detector - This opens a fully closed gate or reopens a closing gate.
•
Outside Obstruction Loop Detector (Out Obs Loop) - Reversing loop on public side.
•
Inside Obstruction Loop Detector (In Obs Loop) - Reversing loop on secure side.
•
Center Loop Detector - Not used for slide gates.
Use of any combination of HY5B
detectors and box detectors is
acceptable. On occasion, multiple
obstruction detectors may be
mandatory. For example, an area
greater than 200 square feet (18.6
square meters) of loop cannot be
connected to any one detector because
the sensitivity becomes inadequate.
Connecting HY5B Vehicle Detectors
Install the HY5B Vehicle Detector modules according to the following procedure:
1�
Turn off both AC and DC power switches.
2�
Insert the locking end of the two white plastic standoffs into the mounting holes on the detector.
3�
Plug the detector into the appropriate socket along the right edge of the SmartDC Controller board.
Be careful to align the six detector pins into the socket correctly (the screws for tightening the
terminals should face toward the board), and then snap the standoffs into the holes in the control
box.
4�
Route the loop wires through the holes provided in the control box and connect the loop leads to
the two terminals on the HY5B detector. Tighten the terminal screws securely.
5�
To enable the detectors, turn on power. The detectors will immediately tune if they are connected
to loops. Make sure no cars or other metal objects are over the loops.
6�
Repeat Steps 1 through 5 for each HY5B detector.
7�
If the detector module is unplugged after it is enabled, a communications alert (ALERT 10) will be
triggered; if the fault continues an error message, ERROR 3 “Detector Failed” is displayed.
