9. Sensitivity is the only adjustment available on the detector itself. Generally, sensitivity does not need to be
increased unless the loop is large or there are multiple loops connected to one detector.
NOTE
Do not exceed more than 200 square feet (61 square meters) of loop area to one detector.
If required, adjust the sensitivity using the rotary switch which has the following eight settings:
• 0 = Low with boost (See NOTE.)
• 1 = Normal with boost (See NOTE.)
• 2 = Medium with boost (See NOTE.)
• 3 = High with boost (See NOTE.)
• 4 = Low without boost
• 5 = Normal without boost
• 6 = Medium without boost
• 7 = High without boost
NOTE
A boost feature is applied for settings 0 through 3. Boost increases the sensitivity during a call
and is useful for maintaining continuous detection if the signal becomes weak (such as with
tractor-trailer trucks). Sensitivity settings 4 through 7 are the same as 0 through 3, but without
the boost feature.
10. Vehicle detector functions are configurable through the Installer Menu as described in Table 4-2.

OR 1 Outside Obstruction loop detector function 0 = Pause closing only
1 = Enable reverse to open
IR 1 Inside Obstruction loop detector function 0 = Pause closing only
1 = Enable reverse to open
DL 1 Vehicle detector logic 1 = Standard (Close Timer does not begin counting until all
loops have cleared)
2 = Quick close (Close Timer can count to zero, even while
loops are active, so the gate will close as soon as the loops are
clear)
3 = Forced time out (Close Timer is forced to zero when both
the OOLD & IOLD are tripped simultaneously. Additionally,
all other close inputs are memorized and the gate closes
immediately when all open commands and vehicle detector
inputs are clear.
4 = Full Anti-tailgate (In addition to the functions of 3, the gate
stops during the opening cycle when both OOLD & IOLD are
tripped simultaneously. When the OOLD and IOLD loops are
cleared, the gate closes immediately.
