Removal Detector
Flat Track features a Removal Detector which is enabled remotely from within your
Business Portal account. When enabled, the sensor must be in proximity of a surface for
1 minute before an alert will be sent. If Flat Track enters into the Removal Detector Alert
Mode, where a surface is no longer detected, the Power/Status buttons will be disabled
and the Green Status Lights will not indicate the device status. Additionally, if Flat Track is
plugged in, the Green Battery/Charging Lights will not function. This feature ensures Flat
Track operation is not further disclosed and avoids additional device tampering.
™ When in the Removal Detector Alert Mode, it gives the illusion that Flat Track is powered
off. Be careful not to confuse this feature with the appearance of a depleted battery.
™ Acknowledge and Clear the Removal Detector Event in your Portal Account to enable
the Power/Status buttons.
Performance Expectations of the Removal Detector
The removal detector utilizes an infrared sensor system which can be impacted by opac-
ity of a surface and the surface type. Highly reflective smooth surfaces will give the best
performance, whereas non-reflective, rough surfaces may provide false readings. Where
possible, always utilize a reflective, smooth surface to mount Flat Track and ensure the
surface is within a few centimeters of the removal detector.
