Electronics and Electromagnetic
The CHECKPOINT METAL DETECTOR uses an embedded microprocessor and features true
multiple-zone performance. The archway passage consists of six separate and
distinct detection zones. It combines unique multiple independent sensors with
high speed digital signal processing. A built in display panel provides instant
visual identification of the location of a suspected weapon, or weapons, in the
archway area.
Header Assembly, Control Panel and Displays
The Control Panel at the front of the Header Assembly contains an on/off Key
switch, a built in Alarm Display Panel, an L.C.D. Display Panel that shows
system operating parameters and a Keypad for operating parameter data
entry. The built in Alarm Display Panel depicts the area within the archway
opening. It has an L.E.D. array showing the six separate detection zones.
Model # CS-DA has the display on both sides of the frame to pinpoint the six
detection zones status.
Model # CS-DII has zone display on the over head control panel
A twelve segment bar graph shows an
object signal strength in real-time. Also included are a red Alarm event
L.E.D, a green ReadylWait L.E.D. All electronics are housed in the Header
Assembly.
System Throughput
The CHECKPOINT METAL DETECTOR communicates a wide range of walk-through
transit speeds. Rapid automatic reset maximizes the system throughput rate
to over fifty passes per minute. CS-DAIDIl speed range provides consistent
detection over a wide range of object transit speeds.
Interference Immunity
CHECKPOINT METAL DETECTOR'S advanced design provides excellent interference
rejection. Outside interference from sources such as computers, fluorescent
lights, etc., have minimal impact, enabling the unit to operate in environments
that render many detectors inoperable.
Uniform Detection
The field of detection is uniform from top-to-bottom with no hot spots or dead
spots. In situations where large amounts of steel re-bar exist in a support
floor
and cause a drop in detection at ankle height; the loss can be compensated by
adjusting the sensitivity of the floor level zone. The sensitivity of all six
zones
can be adjusted independently. They allow uniform detection to be maintained
in all regions of the detector. Horizontal Axis Gain Control compensates for
detection losses caused by external metal in walls or furniture. It adjusts the
sensitivity horizontally across each zone.
Multiple Operating Frequencies
The CHECKPOINT METAL DETECTOR provides eight user selectable operating
frequencies. They allow simultaneous operation of multiple units without
interconnecting slaving cables.
Memory
The CHECKPOINT METAL DETECTOR utilizes an embedded microprocessor that
analyzes data generated by 12 detection sensors. Whenever adjustments are
made to any operating parameter they are automatically retained in memory.
When detector is powered down the previously entered operating parameters
are retained in memory.
System Security
CHECKPOINT METAL DETECTOR is pass-code protected and has a locking Key switch
that connects the AC power. A four digit pass code must be entered before
operating parameters can be accessed and changed. Enhancement feature.
Construction
The CHECKPOINT METAL DETECTOR is coated in a durable scratch resistant two part
epoxy finish. The Side Panels and Header Assembly are sturdily constructed
for stability and durability.
System Diagnostics
The CHECKPOINT METAL DETECTOR has self-diagnostic test routines. When the unit
is powered up it automatically self-tests and calibrates itself to the
surrounding
environment. Periodic calibration is not needed.
