Differentiating between cars that stop and those that don’t

The addition of Detect on Stop (DOS) technology to EMX’s Ultraloop range of vehicle detectors, means the system only triggers when a vehicle stops for at least one second over the loop. It ignores cross-traffic and vehicles that keep moving, enabling parking exit gates to stay closed.

The addition of Detect on Stop (DOS) technology to 8229 EMX’s Ultraloop range of vehicle detectors, means the system only triggers when a vehicle stops for at least one second over the loop. It ignores cross-traffic and vehicles that keep moving, enabling parking exit gates to stay closed.

The Ultraloop ULT-PLG vehicle loop detector is compatible with a wide variety of gate operators and is said to combine small size with full-featured functionality in a plug-in module. It provides a solid-state output indicating vehicle presence while the second output can be used for presence, loop fault or pulse on entry/pulse on exit. The detector provides options for automatic sensitivity boost (ASB), delay, fail-safe/fail-secure and infinite and normal (5 minutes) presence.
