Condition & Resolution
Emulation mode. Some Hy5B features are
unavailable.
Normal operation.
Status indicates loop activation in process.
If initializing, wait until initialization is
complete.
If flashing during loop operation, take
following steps:
1. Check loop wiring.
See Test the Vehicle Loop on page
2.
2. Replace loop.
3. If loop is not at issue, swap out
Hy5B vehicle detector with a known
operational Hy5B.
4. If necessary, replace Hy5B.

Hy5B Vehicle Detector Features

Diagram 1. Hy5B Vehicle
Detector - front view
Automatic Sensitivity - The Hy5B monitors vehicle traffic
over the loop and automatically adjusts the loop sensitivity
based on vehicle type and volume.
Automatic Gate Compensation - The Hy5B discerns gate
travel over the loop and automatically compensates for its
effect. The compensation allows the Hy5B to operate with a
higher sensitivity which provides better detection capability.
No Loop Crosstalk - Exclusive use of Hy5B vehicle
detectors in HySecurity gate operators, completely
eliminates crosstalk and the need to set frequency levels.
Vehicle Counting - Hy5B detects passenger vehicles and
motorcycles.
Automatic Lightning Suppression - Where lightning strikes
occur often, connecting to the ground terminal minimizes
the chance of activation or lock-up.
Health Scores for Loop - Hy5B monitors the loop for
changes that are indicative of possible problems. A score is
accessible through the event log, LG menu item.
Automatic Hy5A emulation mode for backward
compatibility.
Push terminals for loop wires
Ground terminal for lightning
protection Optional - Use
where lightning strikes occur.
LED indicator. Refer to
Table 1: LED Display Status.
Vehicle loop features and
functions explained on the
front label.
Metal pins fit into a socket on
the controller board.

The controller and Hy5B detector also exchange pertinent information, so if a power failure were to occur, the controller can determine if a vehicle is on the loop when power returns.
