2.1 SET THE SENSITIVITY LEVEL

The DEFLECTOMETER
to the most optimum sensitivity level to ensure the detection of all vehicles, including
motorcycles and high bed vehicles.
 While the LMD Series unit is in the Call state (DEFLECTOMETER = 1-9), the
DEFLECTOMETER
increase or decrease one step as the Sensitivity Level is increased or
decreased one step.
 The Call Strength value will depend on the size and type of vehicle in the
detection zone as well as the Sensitivity Level setting of the channel. The
optimum value for a mid-sized vehicle is 5.
 The procedure in section 2.1.1 provides a quick and simple way to program
the Sensitivity Level to the optimum setting to ensure all classes of vehicles
are reliably detected with one simple step.
 The resulting Sensitivity Level can be then be displayed using the procedure
in section 2.1.2. While the LMD Series is in the No-Call state
(DEFLECTOMETER = 0), the DEFLECTOMETER
Sensitivity Level (1 – 9) when either SENS button is pressed once.
For typical vehicles (mid-size vehicle / small pick up) utilizing properly installed roadway
loops, when the Call Strength value 4, 5, or 6 (5 being optimum) is displayed on the

correctly. For high profile vehicles (commercial trucks, 4x4's, etc...), a DEFLECTOMETER
Call Strength value of 4 will be best. For low profile vehicles (sports cars, etc...), a

2.1.1 ADJUSTING SENSITIVITY USING THE DEFLECTOMETER
The DEFLECTOMETER
a
typical
mid-sized
DEFLECTOMETER will display the Call Strength value (1 - 9).
If a mid-size vehicle, located over the roadway loop causes the Call Strength value "7" to
be displayed on the DEFLECTOMETER
2 = DEFLECTOMETER reading "5"). This is done by pressing the front panel SENS
(down) button twice.
If a mid-size vehicle, located over the roadway loop causes the value "2" to be displayed on

NOTE: The DEFLECTOMETER
change, allowing changes to the Sensitivity setting while a vehicle remains in
the loop detection zone. Note that the Call Strength value may be different than
the actual Sensitivity Level setting.
