Health and Safety Protection

Installation and Maintenance Personnel

In the interests of health and safety; when installing, using or servicing this equipment the

following instructions must be noted and adhered to:

1Only skilled or instructed personnel, with relevant technical knowledge and experience, who

are also familiar with the safety procedures required when dealing with modern electri-

cal/electronic equipment, are to be allowed to use and/or work on this equipment. All work

shall be performed in accordance with the local regulations1,2.

2Such personnel must take heed of all relevant notes, cautions and warnings in this Hand-

book and any other Document or Handbook associated with the equipment including, but

not restricted to, the following:

i. The equipment must be correctly connected to the specified incoming power supply.

ii. Only trained / competent persons should work on this equipment.

iii. Any power tools must be regularly inspected and tested.

iv. Any personnel working on site must wear the appropriate protective clothing, e.g. reflec-

tive vests, etc.

Road Users

It is important that all personnel are aware of the dangers to road users that could arise during

repair and maintenance of traffic control equipment.

Ensure that the junction area is coned and signed as necessary to warn motorists and pedestri-

ans of any dangers and to help protect the personnel working on the site.

For UK this refers to Electricity at Work Regulations 1989.

For DE this refers to GV A3, DIN EN 50110-1 (VDE 0105-1) and VDE 0832 and the work-safety leaflet

ASM 0099-01

Handling Precautions

Handling

1. Take care when handling these modules as they can be easily damaged.

2. Always observe anti-static precautions.

Damage through electric fields or electrostatic discharge

Electric fields or electrostatic discharge can cause malfunctions through damaged individual

components, integrated circuits, modules or devices.

3. Only pack, store, transport electronic components, modules or devices in their

original packaging or in other suitable materials, e.g. conductive foam or anti-static

bags.

4. Ensure that the user is discharged prior to handling any modules. This can be achieved

by touching an earthed surface such as a control cabinet, for example.

1. Introduction

1.1. Purpose

These application notes provide additional guidance, to that provided in the SLD4 User Manual

(667/HB/45200/000), for a range of specific applications such as bike, bus and tram detection.

667/HQ/45200/101

2. General Setup

In most cases, the use of the ‘Configuration Tool’ is necessary in order to get the optimum

settings of the SLD4 for these application types.

To communicate with the SLD4 then the following items will be required:

5. Laptop PC or LRT Netbook

6. PC based “SLD4 configuration Tool” 667/TZ/45216/000

7. USB cable interface 702/4/08535/000

AC Supplies

When using 24 AC supply to the detector, only use battery powered interface equipment (e.g.

laptop, PDA). Do not connect mains powered/connected interface equipment to the SLD4. Fail-

ure to observe these precautions may damage the detector and/or the connected device

Note

In practice inductance ranges overlap so it is possible to use a lower range in some circum-

stances. This may give better performance, particularly for bicycle detection.

2.2. SLD4 Sensitivity

The detector threshold may either be set in “Hz” or as a percentage of loop inductance

change (%ΔL/L ). Which you use only depends upon which is most convenient for the applica-

tion. In general, it is recommended that “Hz” mode is used for large vehicles (tram, bus), as

this provides easier value adjustment for large vehicles. The value is a whole number in the

thousands range, for an inductance change it would be a two decimal place number.

The “Hz” setting is slightly dependent upon frequency, so if you change the loop frequency

then the sensitivity in “Hz” may need to be changed higher or lower in proportion to the loop

frequency change. This is the disadvantage of using the “Hz” setting mode.

Detector Variant Differences

The standard SLD4 detector supports only “Bicycle” mode whereas the remaining modes re-

quires an enhanced SLD4 detector.
