Number and Type of Vehicle Detectors
G5 Basestation Model G5B1 can accommodate up to two vehicle detectors; one
for each Lane’s Order Point.
There are two basic types of vehicle detector output signal: presence and pulse.
• Presence detectors are most common. They tell the base station when a
vehicle is present over the detector. They remain active as long as the
vehicle stays within the range of detection.
• Pulse detectors are less common. They tell the base station when a
vehicle has arrived, but have no mechanism to know if or when the
vehicle leaves. An air hose is typically used to provide the pulse signal
when a vehicle rolls over it.
