    1.2 OVERVIEW A dynamic Overview of the LMD operation which includes an LMD Simulator is available on the EDI Web Site; www.EDItraffic.com. 1.3 DEFLECTOMETER FEATURE The LMD Series Loop Monitor introduces a concept to the inductive loop detector field that revolutionizes the process of installing and programming a loop detector.
  • Page 5: Section 2 Installation And Adjustments

    LMD301, LMD302, and LMD304 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 6: Adjusting Sensitivity Directly

    LMD301, LMD302, and LMD304 Series Operations Manual 2.1.2 ADJUSTING SENSITIVITY DIRECTLY The LMD Series offers nine levels of sensitivity (1 to 9). The Sensitivity Level can be manually set to any desired level by pressing the SENS or SENS front panel buttons when a vehicle is NOT over the roadway loop.
  • Page 7: Pulse Mode (P)

    LMD301, LMD302, and LMD304 Series Operations Manual 2.2.4 PULSE MODE (P) The Pulse mode will provide a 125 ms ± 25ms width output pulse for each vehicle entering the loop.. 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.
  • Page 8: Extend Timing

    LMD301, LMD302, and LMD304 Series Operations Manual time starts counting down when a vehicle enters the loop detection area. During the Delay ® time the DET indicator will flash two times per second and the DEFLECTOMETER will display the letter “d”. Delay time can be overridden by a True signal at the Timer Control input.

    LMD301, LMD302, and LMD304 Series Operations Manual Flash Sequence Fault 1 flash Open Circuit Loop (or Inductance too high) 2 flashes Shorted Circuit Loop (or inductance too low) 3 flashes >25% Change in Inductance 2.6.2 PREVIOUS FAULT If the fault condition is removed, the DET indicator and the channel output will return to normal operation.
  • Page 10: Section 3 Loop Installation

    LMD301, LMD302, and LMD304 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...

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.
