LMD622 and LMD624 Series Operations Manual Loop diagnostic capabilities incorporated within the LMD Series Loop Monitor enable the detection of short or open circuit loops and sudden changes of inductance exceeding 25 percent of the nominal inductance. Each type of fault is signified by the fault indicator emitting a different flash sequence.
LMD622 and LMD624 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.
LMD622 and LMD624 Series Operations Manual when a vehicle is NOT over the roadway loop. The Sensitivity Level will be now displayed on the DEFLECTOMETER. Pressing the SENS or SENS button once will display the Sensitivity Level without changing the setting. After pressing the SENS or SENS buttons to display the Sensitivity Level, the setting can then be modified by pressing the SENS...
LMD622 and LMD624 Series Operations Manual 2.2.5 CALL MODE (C) The Call mode will set the channel output to the Call state (True). This mode can be used to provide a continuous Call state to the Controller Unit regardless of the state of the detection zone.
LMD622 and LMD624 Series Operations Manual 2.4.2.1 EXTEND ALWAYS (DEFAULT) Call Extend time starts counting down when the last vehicle clears the loop detection zone. During the Extend time the DET indicator will flash four times per second and the DEFLECTOMETER will display the letter “E”.
LMD622 and LMD624 Series Operations Manual 2.6.1 CURRENT FAULT If a fault is detected, both the DET (Red) and FLT (Yellow) LEDs continuously emit a sequence of flashes and the DEFLECTOMETER will display the letter “F”. Each type of fault is identified by a different flash sequence followed by a one second pause: Flash Sequence Fault 1 flash...
LMD622 and LMD624 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: L = P x (T + T) / 4 Where L = Loop Inductance in microHenries...

LMD622 and LMD624 Series Operations Manual circumference to prevent the loop wire from rising up while the sealant is poured and curing. 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.
