11.2.5 PROGRAM C
• Custom program designed to detect ferrous and conductive objects equally.
• This program is optimized for the three-gun test of the Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA).
• Immunity to external noise is moderate, making this program usable in most environments.
• Discrimination is good, providing the highest throughput rate.
• Recommended applications include airports, schools, courtrooms and other high volume
installations.
11.2.6 PROGRAM D
• Custom program designed to detect ferrous and conductive objects.
• This program provides a level of security that exceeds FAA requirements.
• Discrimination is moderate to good.
• Recommended applications include airports, schools, courtrooms and other installations
requiring the maximum possible security in high volume operation.
11.2.7 PROGRAM E
• Custom program designed to detect ferrous and conductive objects. Emphasis of detection is
on conductive objects.
• Immunity to external noise is moderate, making this program usable in most environments.
• Discrimination is moderate to good.
• Recommended applications include loss prevention.
