Page 6: General Description
MT 5500 to optimally detect weapons and other devices made of metal. At the same time, multi-dimensional detecting informs the operator whether a target being detected is on the left, right or center/balance of the detector. - Page 7 A complete and automatic self-diagnostic program is carried out by the MT 5500 each time the Operate touch- pad is pressed. In addition, the detector utilizes self-testing circuitry that continuously monitors the critical func- tions of the detector, reporting automatically the failure of any element that would affect operation of the unit.

Audio volume has been turned OFF. Operators should be instructed to respond to all alarms. For any detector to be effective in a security system it is absolutely necessary that the cause of EVERY ALARM be determined. © 2006 GARRETT METAL DETECTORS PN 1530200.F.0506... -
Page 9: Touchpads
2.2.1 ON / OPERATE / TEST Whenever this touchpad is pressed, the MT 5500 activates all circuits, initiates a self-diagnosis pro- gram and places the unit in the Operate Mode. This diagnostic program for instant fault detection can be activated at any time by touching the OPERATE touchpad. If any faults are ever found, they will be immediately reported on the LCD display. -

Page 12: Installation Instructions
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS SITE SELECTION The Garrett MT 5500 should be located on a level, stable floor with no large metal items within three (3) feet. Any nearby large metallic object can interfere with operation of the detector. Moving metal- lic objects, such as an escalator or revolving door, close to the detector can cause false alarms. Such alarms can also be caused by electrical interference from radio telephones, television monitors, pow- erful electronic motors and transformers, power cables and control circuits. - Page 13 Detection Unit to Panels A and B. Do not tighten. 3.2.4 Open door of the Detection Unit and, first, connect Power Cord. Then, connect Cable A and Cable B to the Panels as shown. ©2006 GARRETT METAL DETECTORS PN 1530200.F.0506...

Page 15: Self-Diagnostic Tests
MT 5500 User Manual SELF-DIAGNOSTIC TESTS The Garrett MT 5500 LCD panel provides valuable information concerning the operation of this unit and the self-diagnostic program of which it is capable. OPERATING INFORMATION When the unit is placed into operation from the OFF Mode, the following information is reported: 1. - Page 16 The system continuously performs several of the tests described above. Errors 1,4 and 5 severely limit or prohibit acceptable performance of the MT 5500 and are considered Fatal Errors. If a fatal error is encountered because of component failure, broken wire, etc., the audible alarm will sound and the LED display will begin to flash.

This feature will allow multiple units to operate in close proximity. It is recommended that when two (2) MT 5500 units are operated in close proximity that Channels 1 and 2 are used. If three (3) or more MT 5500 units are operated in close proximity, use Channels 1, 2 and 3. (Section 11.3). Press ACCESS for next adjustment or OPERATE to return to normal operation. - Page 18 Record the new code numbers on the Access Settings card that accompanied this Owner’s Manual. It is also suggested that codes be changed periodically, especially when any changes are made in personnel with access to the codes. © 2006 GARRETT METAL DETECTORS PN 1530200.F.0506...

OPERATE to return to normal operation. IR ANALYSIS The Garrett MT 5500 utilizes an Infrared Sensor to enhance the operation of the unit in special sit- uations. IR Analysis — ON or OFF appears on the LCD to indicate whether or not the IR Analysis is being used. - Page 20 4. The IR Analysis enables the detector to count the number of individuals passing through it. ALARM LEVEL READING Computerized circuitry of the Garrett MT 5500 permits the unit to report the minimum sensitivity level required to cause an alarm for the particular metallic target that is being passed through the arch- way.

“clean” of extraneous metallic items. ANKLE BOOST The MT 5500 incorporates the ability to adjust the sensitivity at ankle level without increasing sen- sitivity throughout the passageway. The factory setting is with standard ankle boost to allow easier passage of shoes containing metal shanks. - Page 22 • High: High sensitivity; low traffic volume • Medium: High Sensitivity; high traffic volume • Standard: Normal sensitivity; high traffic volume NOTE: Ankle level sensitivity can be adjusted for any program / sensitivity selection. © 2006 GARRETT METAL DETECTORS PN 1530200.F.0506...

Page 30: Warranty
MT 5500 User Manual WARRANTY Garrett Electronics, Inc. (“Garrett”) warrants that this MT 5500 weapons/metal detector is protected by the following limited parts and labor warranty for a period of 24 (twenty-four) months (the “Warranty”). During this 24-month period Garrett will inspect and evaluate all security equipment returned to its authorized repair station or factory to determine if the equipment meets performance specifications. -

In addition, a tamper indication reports any unauthorized attempts at access. A complete and automatic self-diagnostic program is carried out by the MT 5500 each time the OPERATE touchpad is pressed. In addition, the detector utilizes self-testing circuitry that enables it to identify and report automatically the failure of elements that would affect operation of the unit. - Page 32 For any detector to be effective in a security system it is absolutely necessary that the cause of EVERY ALARM be determined. 10.6 TYPES OF AUDIO ALARMS The MT 5500 has three types of alarms. Each of these unique alarms is designed to call the opera- tor’s attention to current circumstances: 10.6.1 SET-UP ALARM Produces two short beeps as a person is walking through the unit.
- Page 33 10.8.3 COUNTER Since the current traffic count of the MT 5500 is usually displayed, this touchpad will be needed only for resetting the counter. Pressing and holding this touchpad for ten (10) seconds causes the count- er to return to zero (0). Whenever the LCD displays information other than the current traffic count, pressing this touchpad will cause the count to appear.
- Page 34 10.12 READY LIGHT The green READY light, located at the top center of the Control Panel indicates that the MT 5500 is operating. When the green light is showing, power has been turned on and the unit is prepared to detect metal.
- Page 35 Because of the high level of design quality represented by the MT 5500 and its IR Sensor, it can be expected to produce relatively few “nuisance alarms” when installed properly. Nevertheless, opera- tors should always follow instructions from supervisors about reporting them.
- Page 36 The MT 5500 is a fine walk-through metal detector. But, in the end, even an electronic device as sophisticated as this is only a tool. Ultimate success of its operation is dependent upon: •...
