LD-1123-PAQ

Loop Detector

The LD-1123-PAQ Loop Detector is designed to be used with gates or other vehicle detection systems. The unit connected to an input loop which is buried in the pavement. If a vehicle is over the input loop, the detector sends a signal to perform such actions as opening a gate, holding a gate open, or indicating that a vehicle is in a bay.

Product Information Sheet (PI)

Manual

Sensor does not detect the vehicle
  • Make sure that unit is powered up (red LED is lit) and has completed the initial self-test
  • Adjust the sensitivity setting
  • Check for fault in the loop or loose connection to detector
Sensor’s green LED lights when vehicle is detected, but there is no output
  • Check wiring between the sensor and device to be triggered
Detector continues to detect even after a vehicle leaves the loop
  • Check for fault in the loop or loose connection to detector
Detector sometimes detects even when there is no vehicle over the loop
  • Check for fault in the loop or loose connection to detector
  • Check for cross-talk between adjacent loops – adjust frequency
  • Check whether the loop is being triggered by other metallic objects nearby – gates, metal doors, pavement reinforcement
  • Loop may not be securely installed in pavement to prevent movement or moisture intrusion
Green LED flashes quickly
  • Check for loop short circuit
  • Check for loose connection between the loop and detector
  • Ensure loop inductance does not exceed permitted range
