Page 3: Introduction
These same devices slip through regular metal detectors without detection but not SentryHound-Pro because of its sensitivity, unique motion detection and enhanced false trigger rejection. This allows for a rapid security checkpoint of pockets, bags, purses, clothing and even body cavities. -

30 seconds to complete. SentryHound-Pro self calibrates so you do not need to calibrate manually unless the unit is moved to a different location. After the unit has been moved, you should always press the CALIBRATE button and wait 30 seconds. -
Page 5: Controls And Alerts
Controls and Alerts SentryHound-Pro is housed in a rugged aluminum chassis with weather resistant seals and buttons. The internal 12V sealed lead acid battery takes approximately 3 hours to fully charge and lasts approximately 24 hours under normal operation. The unit includes 5 color-coded buttons, a physical lock and key, dry trigger contact and USB port on the top of the base. -
Page 6: Beacon Alert Colors
Beacon Alert Colors The light atop the sensor pole can indicate modes independently of other visual alerts and sounds. Make note of the beacon’s color and/or blinking to understand the corresponding modes. Solid green indicates that the unit is ready for detection. Always wait for solid green before letting anyone pass by the unit. -
Page 7: Controlling Sentryhound-Pro
Controlling SentryHound-Pro SentryHound-Pro buttons are color-coded to match the color of the LED alerts and configuration modes in the pole. Some of these buttons require holding down in combinations to enter into different detection configurations. Consult this manual fully or the included quick start guide for more details. -
Page 8: More About Ferrous Detection
SentryHound-Pro should NOT be used on any carpet or flooring that has the slightest give when someone walks nearby. If a system is moved at all, it should stabilize after 5 seconds or so to resume detection. However, in certain instances, the extreme movement of the system could trigger a full calibration procedure (as indicated by yellow beacon light on top of pole), and after about 30 seconds, the system will again be ready for detection. -
Page 9: Operational Modes
IR sensors are facing each other. The alert LEDs on one side of the poles, the buttons and the SentryHound-Pro etching on the base should all be viewable and easily accessible from the outside of the portal allowing only foot traffic within the portal to be detected as they pass through. -
Page 10: Free Standing Gated Untethered Portal
Note: If ferrous material passes through the portal at the same time that someone else moves near the portal, there is a risk of false detection. SentryHound-Pro should always be setup in an area with minimal ferromagnetic activity. This activity can include large moving ferrous objects such as wheeled office chairs,... -
Page 11: Wall Mounted Unidirectional
Mode 3: Wall‐mounted unidirectional WALL-MOUNTED UNIDIRECTIONAL In this mode, one SentryHound-Pro unit is typically mounted to a wall near a doorway or down a narrow hallway using the optional wall mounting kit. Single pole detection range typically falls between 18 and 32 inches so be sure that foot traffic is not too far away from the sensors in the pole. -
Page 12: Free Standing Unidirectional
Note: If ferrous material passes by the unit at the same time that someone else moves near the portal, there is a risk of false detection. SentryHound-Pro should always be setup in an area with minimal ferromagnetic activity. This activity can include large moving ferrous objects such as wheeled office chairs, filing cabinet drawers,... -
Page 13: Free Standing Omnidirectional
Note: If ferrous material passes by the unit at the same time that someone else moves near the portal, there is a risk of false detection. SentryHound-Pro should always be setup in an area with minimal ferromagnetic activity. This activity can include large moving ferrous objects such as wheeled office chairs, filing cabinet drawers,... -
Page 14: Free Standing Bidirectional
Note: If ferrous material passes by the unit at the same time that someone else moves near the portal, there is a risk of false detection. SentryHound-Pro should always be setup in an area with minimal ferromagnetic activity. This activity can include large moving ferrous objects such as wheeled office chairs, filing cabinet drawers,... -

27 inches from the nearest sensor. Each time you move SentryHound-Pro into a new environment, you might have to go through each of the sensitivity settings to find the right balance of detection compared to false detection. -
Page 16: Alert Settings
Alert Settings Upon positive detection, SentryHound-Pro emits an audio and visual alert but these can be customized to fit your needs. The unit contains 8 different alert settings that can be toggled through by pressing the ALERT button. Push the ALERT button to check the current alert settings. After 3 seconds, the alert display will stop but if you push the ALERT button before that, it will increment to the next setting each time you push the button. -
Page 17: Battery Levels
Battery Level SentryHound-Pro contains an internal, sealed lead acid 12V battery. This battery takes 3-4 hours to charge fully and can operate the unit without any AC power for over 24 hours. Battery power can be checked at any time by pressing the BATTERY button. - Page 19 Thank you for your purchase, we look forward to supporting you and your team.
