The SLD4 detector does not have good detection performance with bicycles predominantly
manufactured from carbon fibre.
6.2. Basic Setup of detector
The inductance range needs to be set for the appropriate loop channel, 1 to 4, being used for
the bicycle detection. Typically the loops are very similar to standard traffic loops and so the
inductance most probably needs to be set to the lowest level. Links PL3 to PL6 must be set to
1-2 and 3-4, as this is the low inductance range.
Refer to 2.1 SLD4 Loop Inductance Configuration for information.
6.3. Advanced Bicycle Configuration Setting
If you experience difficulties with configuring the SLD4 with the tool, then refer to section 1 “
Troubleshooting”
Set the SLD4 to “(%DL/L” in the “Loop Mode” configuration and lower the threshold of the de-
tector, thus increasing the sensitivity in increments of 0.02 (%DL/L loop mode) at a time until
the detection of bicycles is consistently made.
