veHICle deteCtor InstallatIon: HY-5a
The Smart Touch Controller provides an interface for up to four different vehicle detector functions.
Standard box type 11 pin (24 VDC or 24 VAC) vehicle detectors may be connected in the traditional manner, but
HySecurity HY-5A mini-detector modules plug directly into the Smart Touch Controller, making eld installation
much faster and enhancing performance. The detector communicates with the Smart Touch Controller
microprocessor to achieve the following benets:
• Loop frequency is automatically set and monitored by the Smart Touch Controller.
• Best operating frequency for each loop is automatically selected.
• Cross-talk between multiple loops is impossible.
• Very low power draw, which is important for maximum UPS capability during a power failure or for solar
applications.
• Loop frequency and call strength can be reported on the Smart Touch Controller display.
• Loop malfunctions are stored by the Smart Touch Controller and appear in code on the display.
NOTE: It is not mandatory to use two separate vehicle detectors for inner and outer obstruction detection;
however, the benets of using the two HY-5A detectors are great. Several new features are possible, such as
second vehicle tailgating detection, loitering alert, and selectable non-reversing options.
