2. CONTROLS, INTERNAL MODULES & ALARMS
2.1. DISPLAY PANEL
2.1.1. BAR GRAPH
The LED bar graph comprises a series of lights that represent the level of metal detec-
tion activity occurring within the archway. The degree of detection intensity varies
depending on the quantity and composition of the metallic object(s).
2.1.2. READY LIGHT
The green READY light appears when power is on and the PD 6500 is ready to detect
metal. The ready light must be illuminated before a patron is permitted to enter the
walk-through.
2.1.4. LCD (LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY)
The LCD is an ongoing visual display located in the overhead panel. The LCD reports
calibration and operational information, including program and sensitivity settings, oper-
ator functions and fault indication. The LCD displays all self-prompting regulation and
control functions as well as a handy traffic count.
2.1.5. ALARM LIGHT
The red ALARM light appears when the unit detects an amount of metal within the
walk-through according to the program and base sensitivity settings. The alarm light
appears even when the audio volume is off. Operators should follow the supervisor's
instructions regarding the appropriate response to alarms. Remember that the cause of
every alarm must be determined for any detector to be effective in an overall security
plan.
