    Operations Manual Section 1 GENERAL 1.1 DESCRIPTION The LMD222 two channel and LMD224 four channel rack-mounted inductive Loop Monitor ® with DEFLECTOMETER Series is built on the international card format with double-sided 44 pin edge connectors for connection of power, loop inputs and call outputs. The ®...
  • Page 5 LMD222 and LMD224 Series Operations Manual The unit will detect inductance changes as small as 0.010% ∆L/L. Each channel is sequentially energized and sampled so as to negate the possibility of crosstalk between loops connected to different channels of the same detector.
  • Page 6: Section 2 Installation And Adjustments

    LMD222 and LMD224 Series Operations Manual Section 2 Installation and Adjustments 2.1 SET THE SENSITIVITY LEVEL ® The DEFLECTOMETER (front panel 7-segment LED display) aids in setting the detector to the most optimum sensitivity level to ensure the detection of all vehicles, including motorcycles and high bed vehicles.
  • Page 7: Adjusting Sensitivity Directly

    Note that each change of the Sensitivity Level while in this “direct adjust” mode causes the LMD Series to retune. Caltrans sensitivity levels 1, 2, and 3 are equivalent to the LMD222 and LMD624 levels of 3, 4, and 5 respectively.
  • Page 8: Minimum Presence Time

    LMD222 and LMD224 Series Operations Manual 2.2.4 MINIMUM PRESENCE TIME When the diode (1N4148WS) labeled OPT4 is installed, the LMD Series will limit the minimum presence time to 100 milliseconds. 2.2.5 PULSE MODE (P) The Pulse mode will provide a 125 ms ± 25ms width output pulse for each vehicle entering the loop.
  • Page 9: Retune Or Reset A Channel

    LMD222 and LMD224 Series Operations Manual 2.4.2 RETUNE OR RESET A CHANNEL Press the MODE and FREQ buttons simultaneously to reset the channel. This will clear any previous loop fault indication and cause the channel to retune. 2.4.3 FACTORY DEFAULT SETTINGS Press the Channel 1 MODE and FREQ buttons simultaneously while first applying power to the unit to reset all channels to the factory default settings.
  • Page 10: Section 3 Loop Installation

    LMD222 and LMD224 Series Operations Manual Section 3 Loop Installation The typical sensing height is 2/3 of the shortest leg of a loop (in feet). Therefore a 4’ x 8’ loop typically has a detection height of 2.6’. The inductance of a conventional four-sided loop can be estimated using the formula:...

Many different types of loop sealant are now available. Single part types are the easiest to apply since no mixing is required, but they also tend to be more expensive in terms of linear feet of saw slot filled.
