Gate bypass cable
To bypass a gate in a FlexZone zone, run the sensor cable from one side of the
gate to the other, underground inside conduit. Secure the bypass cable at both
sides of the gate. The bypass cable is then specified as non-detecting during the
calibration process (cable set as non-detecting does not report alarms).The gate
can be protected with another technology, such as a microwave system.
Optionally, create a 3 m isolation loop at each end of the software bypassed
cable.
