e-Loop Presence Mode

The e-Loop Commercial Presence Mode wireless detection module features radar protection.

The Commercial Wireless Vehicle Detection System relies on magnetometer sensors to detect approaching vehicles. These detections are sent to a nearby transceiver to activate the gate. Once a vehicle is detected, the e-loop switches to radar mode. We install the sensors on the surface of entry or exit passages using dyna bolts. They come equipped with four replaceable Lithium batteries and can withstand the weight of almost any vehicle.

The Radar sensors can detect vehicles that have come to a stop above the e-loop. The additional radar feature utilises a two-way radio communication protocol to ensure reliable operation. When the magnetometer sensor senses an oncoming vehicle, the transceiver relay is engaged, and a confirmation is sent back to the e-Loop. If the magnetic field drops below the set threshold, the radar checks for the presence of a vehicle. If no vehicle is detected, an unlatch command is sent to the relay, and the transceiver confirms this to the e-loop. If for any reason the confirmation is not received, multiple attempts are made to ensure safe operation. You can adjust radar settings using the e-diagnostics remote, allowing changes to parameters such as Dead Zone, Sensor Distance, Sensitivity, Magnetic Field Release Level, and Confirmation Mode.

Note: The gate or door controller must have a dedicated open input and auto close function enabled.

Magnetometer Detection Areas

Varying magnetic field detection zones. The grey area depicts a 0.6m high sensitivity detection area surrounding the e-loop, suitable for the majority of vehicles. The dark colour area depicts a 1m medium sensitivity detection area surrounding the e-loop, suitable for most vehicles. The light colour depicts a 1.5m low sensitivity detection area surrounding the e-loop, which is only suitable for some vehicles.

Radar Read Distances

Radar detection range. Spanning from a 60° FOV from the e-loop, these are the range zones. The Gray area depicts the dead zone, in which objects cannot be detected. The Minimum read distance is 0.6m. The default read distance is 1.3m, and the Maximum read distance spans up to 2m.
