LRS
™
Single Cut Magnetoresistive Vehicle Detector
Instruction Manual
The Loop Replacement System (LRS) features advanced 3-axis, magnetoresistive sensing technology.
The small size of the LRS allows for easy installation in pavement with a single saw cut. It provides cost
savings on labor and materials when compared to the multiple cuts and corner reliefs required for the
installation of inductive loops. The sensor measures the Earth’s magnetic field and responds
to disturbances caused by ferrous objects. Three sensing elements provide magnetic field measurement
in the X, Y and Z axis, improving detection sensitivity. The LRS flat pack (FP) and direct burial (DB) sensors
are also suitable for above ground installations, making them ideal for use in confined areas or hidden in
non-ferrous architectural components for security purposes. The LRS’ exciting new technology provides
a high-sensitivity, compact and cost-effective solution for reliable vehicle detection.
NOTE: When power is applied to the LRS-C1 controller and the LRS-FP or DB sensor is connected,
the settings on the controller will be sent to the sensor. The sensor stores these settings even when
disconnected from the LRS-C1. However, the controller is required to program and recalibrate
the sensor.
