MEDICAL SAFETY
Garrett Metal Detectors makes every effort to ensure its products are safe for use. Extensive research by Garrett
has produced no information which would indicate that its products have any adverse effects on medical implants,
pregnancy, recording media or magnetic strips. Garrett makes every effort to cooperate with medical device
manufacturers and to communicate with agencies such as the United States Food and Drug Administration and
Health Canada as a means of assuring product safety. The electromagnetic fields produced by Garrett products
are similar to those encountered in the daily environment and meet U.S. and International standards for electro-
magnetic emissions.
Garrett recognizes that certain medical devices may have additional requirements which may require special care.
Any recommendations or directives issued by personal physicians or medical device manufacturers should be fol-
lowed. If, for any reason, (e.g. doctors orders, etc.), a patron objects to being scanned with a metal detector, it is
recommended that alternative procedures be used.
The following should be considered when developing a security checkpoint screening plan:
• Traffic Flow - Traffic flow should remain unobstructed as a means of minimizing the time a person
remains within the archway of a walk-through metal detector.
• Alternative Screening - Alternative screening methods such as scanning with a hand held metal
detector, hand searching or denial of access should be clearly defined in checkpoint screening
procedures as approved alternatives to screening with the walk-through metal detector.
• Personnel Training - Security screening personnel should be instructed in the care of persons
with special medical needs and use of alternative screening methods that meet the requirements
of medical practitioners or medical device manufacturers.

The CS 5000 uses microprocessors in both its detection and control circuitry. These integrated
circuits contain the necessary elements of a small digital computer and are preprogrammed to provide
discrimination capabilities that enable the CS 5000 to optimally detect weapons and other devices
made of metal. At the same time, the microprocessors permit the detector to be considerably more
sophisticated in its programming and provide greater flexibility in the selectivity of the metals it detects.
The detector also features excellent sensitivity, stability and noise rejection. All electronics are built into
an overhead panel of the unit to eliminate problems of logistics and reliability often associated with a
cable-connected console. The LCD display on the face of the detector's overhead panel reports
information concerning the unit’s calibration and operation. This includes program data, sensitivity
settings, operator settings and fault indication. A bright LED bar graph, easily visible from a distance,
reports detection levels and separate lights indicate ready and alarm conditions.
All regulation and control functions are “self-prompting” with necessary commands shown automati-
cally on the LCD. The Unit also reports a traffic count on its LCD. The system offers highly flexible
capabilities with a continuously variable range of programs including several that have been designed
for specific purposes. Programs are regulated by state-of-the-art touchpads and reported visually on
the LCD. Improved security of the unit’s detection settings comes from an improved system of access
codes. Two levels of codes eliminate the need for bothersome keys for locked doors or other protective
devices, while the CS 5000 circuitry provides precise accuracy of calibration. Access Code #1 is used
by supervisors for selecting programs and sensitivity with Access Code #2 designed for initial set up
and overall control. All settings are encoded by touchpads and remembered in an resettable memory.
Security of the unit’s calibration settings is further protected by a non-resettable sequence code that
allows supervisors to keep a log of all changes that are ever made as well as any unsuccessful attempts
to change them. In addition, a tamper indication reports any unauthorized attempts at access. A
complete and automatic self-diagnostic program is carried out by the CS 5000 each time the Operate
touchpad is pressed. In addition, the detector utilized self-testing circuitry that continuously monitors
the critical functions of the detector, reporting automatically the failure of any element that would affect
operation of the unit.
2.2 Touchpads
Eight touchpads on the overhead Control Panel perform all control functions:
2.2.1 Standby
When this touchpad is pressed, the unit goes into a low power mode, ready to be returned to full
operation when the OPERATE pad is touched. When STANDBY is displayed on the LCD, the green
Ready light is not visible and no processing can take place in the unit. It is important to remember
that the Power Switch located on the Battery Back-up Module (See Section 11.6) should be set to its
OFF position anytime the system is being stored and anytime the system is not in use and is not con-
nected to AC power for more than 24 hours.
2.2.2 Operate
Whenever this touchpad is pressed, the CS 5000 activates all circuits, initiates a self-diagnosis pro-
gram and places the unit in the Operate Mode within fifteen (15) seconds. This diagnostic program for
instant fault detection can be activated at any time by touching this OPERATE pad. If any faults are
ever found, they will be immediately reported on the LCD display. (See Section 4.)
2.2.3 Counter
When this touchpad is pressed, the traffic count is displayed on the LCD display. Pressing and hold-
ing this touchpad for ten (10) seconds causes the counter to return to zero (0). Whenever the LCD is
displaying information other than the current traffic count, pressing this touchpad will cause the count
to appear along with the Sequence Number of changes that have been made to Program/Sensitivity
settings. CT (Number) and SEQ (Number) will appear. Each time the Program/Sensitivity Mode is
accessed, the Sequence Code that appears on the LCD will be advanced one number. It is recom-
mended that a written notation be made on the Operations Worksheet (see Section 11.1) whenever
this code is accessed, explaining reasons for the access. If the ACCESS touchpad has been pressed
and an improper access code has been entered, a * will appear before the sequence number (SEQ
*37). This indicates that an unsuccessful (unauthorized) attempt has been made to gain access to
the Program/Sensitivity setting.
2.2.4 Volume
When this touchpad is pressed, the volume level of the unit’s audible alarm will be shown on the LCD
display and the actual volume of the alarm will be heard. The + and - touchpads can be used by opera-
tors to raise or lower the volume. Press OPERATE to return to the operate mode.
2.2.5 + and -
These touchpads will be used to increase or decrease various numerical settings and for certain On/
Off functions.
2.2.6 Program
When this touchpad is pressed, the settings for Program and Sensitivity will appear on the LCD
display.
2.2.7 ACCESS
The ACCESS touchpad will be used only by supervisory management personnel. It permits changing
the Program and Sensitivity codes and also is used to control such functions as synchronization of
multiple units, pulse frequency, tone, etc. (See Section 5.3). The unit further protects security of control
settings by maintaining a non-resettable sequence code that indicates any attempt at seeking access
to the settings. When this touchpad is pressed, audio of the system will “chirp” and ENTER CODE
will be displayed on the LCD, prompting the operator to enter an access code. If no attempt is made
to enter a code, the unit will continue chirping for ten (10) seconds and return to Operate Mode. If the
operator enters an incorrect code, audio will sound a Tamper Alarm and ACCESS DENIED will appear
on the LCD for five (5) seconds. An asterisk (*) will appear on the Sequence Counter indicating that
an unsuccessful attempt has been made to access the Installation or Program/Sensitivity Modes of
the unit.
If an operator should inadvertently press the ACCESS touchpad, no further action should be taken and
the unit will return automatically to the Operate Mode in about ten (10) seconds.
SPECIAL NOTE: The above touchpad functions will be available to operators of the detector at all
times. Additional functions such as program and sensitivity settings and other adjustments necessary
only at installation time may be selected by pressing the ACCESS touchpad and entering a security
code.
• Connecting wires to remote alarm relays or synchronization circuitry (See Section 11.3);
• Connecting a remote console (See Section 11.5);
• Attaching the optional battery back up (See Section 11.6);
• Resetting to factory default Access Code (See Section 5.9).
Shown above is a view of the detection unit after the access door has been opened. Three metal cov-
ers protect (from left) the POWER SUPPLY Module, CONTROLLER Module and the BATTERY PACK
Module (Optional).
POWER
This switch need be placed in the OFF position only during storage or when the unit is not being used and
is not connected to AC power for more than 24 hours. See Section 11.6.1 for installation instructions.
3. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
3.1 Site Selection
The Garrett CS 5000 should be located on a level, stable floor with no large metal items within three
(3) feet. Any nearby large metallic object can interfere with operation of the detector. Moving metallic
objects, such as an escalator or revolving door, close to the detector can cause false alarms. Such
alarms can also be caused by electrical interference from radio telephones, television monitors, power-
ful electronic motors and transformers, power cables and control circuits.
Garrett’s special built-in circuitry is designed to suppress much of this electronic noise, especially X-
ray monitor horizontal synchronization signals and closed circuit television. Multiple frequencies permit
several CS 5000 units to operate simultaneously, in close proximity.
For information concerning the operation of multiple units, see Section 11.3.
The site for a CS 5000 should be selected with requirements for its pedestrian traffic and use in mind;
i.e. space for waiting lines, operators and areas for hand-scanning. Although the detector is effective
with traffic moving in either direction, best results are obtained when traffic enters from the side oppo-
site to the control touchpads and LCD display.
Locate the archway where it will not be subject to rain, mist or condensation. Protect the power cable
from pedestrian as well as vehicular traffic.
3.2 Assembly
NOTE: COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATORY STANDARDS REQUIRES THAT A CORD SET BE
USED FOR INSTALLATION.
3.2.1 Lay out the major pieces of the CS 5000, as shown at the right. Make certain all other attachment
devices are included. These should include:
• Detection Panel A
• Detection Panel B
• Detection Unit
• Crosspiece
• Power Cord
• 1/4-20x3” Screws (8)
• Finishing Washers (8)
• Warranty Card
• User’s Manual
• Operator’s Manual
• Instruction Video
• Access Code Card
• Cord Set
3.2.2 Install the Power Cord completely through one of the channels at the top of either of the Panels as
shown below. A channel can be found in each of the four corners. Select the corner that will be
convenient in relation to site selection. For overhead power connection, do not insert the cable
through a channel but leave it free at the top.
If using cord set, it must be routed through the channel closest to the Power Module. Care should be
taken to prevent accidental disconnections and exposure to water.
3.2.3 Place the styrofoam packing material on floor as shown and lay the Detection Unit on it with the touch
pad panel facing down. Use four (4) of the Screws and Finishing Washers to connect the Detection
Unit to Panels A and B. Do not tighten.
3.2.4 Open door of the Detection Unit and, first, connect Power Cord. Then, connect Cable A and Cable B
to the Panels as shown.
PANEL A PANEL B
CABLE A CABLE B
POWER CORD OR
CORD SET
3.2.5 Use the remaining screws and washers to attach the Crosspiece to the two panels, as shown
3.2.7 With two or more people lift to a vertical position and move to location.
3.3.8 Check for stability of unit, which is important for proper operation and safety. If the floor proves
to be uneven, either shim a corner or slightly loosen the screws connecting the Detection Unit
and Overhead Crosspiece to the Side Panels and adjust as necessary.
3.3.9 Connect to the power line, and proceed with Installation Adjustments (See Section 5.)
4. SELF-DIAGNOSTIC TESTS
The Garrett CS 5000 LCD panel provides valuable information concerning the operation of this unit
and the self-diagnostic program of which it is capable.
Example: SELF-TEST...3..4 (Indicates that both Error 3 and Error 4 are occurring.)
The self-diagnostic/reporting cycle described above will be carried out automatically by the unit any
time the OPERATE touchpad is pressed.
If a fatal error is encountered because of component failure, broken wire, etc., the audible alarm will
sound and the LED display will begin to flash. To remedy the situation, press the OPERATE touchpad,
which will initiate the self-diagnostic routine. Note the error(s) that will appear on the LED and follow
instructions stated above. If a solution is not obvious, it will be necessary to follow the repair procedure
described in Section 9.2.
Another error indication is that of a warbling audio when a person is in the archway (or, for an extended
time if the IR Analysis is switched off). This sound indicates that a large metallic object, such as a
wheelchair, stroller, or very large hand-carried object, has “overloaded” the equipment to a degree that
it cannot function accurately. If this sound is heard, the operator should see that the problem object is
moved away, and the person being inspected should be required to pass through the archway again
after the green READY light appears.
5. INSTALLATION ADJUSTMENTS
The Installation Adjustment Mode, which can be accessed only through use of a four-digit code
(Access Code #2), permits the CS 5000 to be set up properly for best performance in a given opera-
tional environment. Various options permit setting the unit for proper operation in conjunction with
other walk-through units or for dealing with typical operation problems.
Default settings, preset at the factory, are indicated below for each of the functions in this mode. Use
the + or - touchpads to regulate any of the functions.
To access the Installation Adjustment Mode for the first time, press the ACCESS touchpad and enter
the factory preset code of 5678. Functions to be set will be displayed in the following sequence:
Pressing ACCESS will scroll through these selections:
5.2 Tone
The alarm tone is initially set at a median level. Through use of the + and - touchpads the tone level
can be raised or lowered. A corresponding number (1 to 9 ) will be displayed on the LCD panel and
the tone that has been selected will be heard. When the desired tone is reached, press ACCESS to
select the next adjustment or press OPERATE to return to normal operation.
5.3 Synchronization
Preset factory option is MASTER. See Multiple Unit Operation in Section 11.3 for directions on proper
use of this option when it is necessary.
MASTER enables unit to operate on its own internally generated synchronization from the power line.
SLAVE synchronizes the unit to the signal received from another CS 5000 on the Sync terminal (on
the lower center of the Controller Circuit Board).
5.4 Channel
This feature will allow multiple units to operate in close proximity. It is recommended that when two
(2) units are operated in close proximity that Channels A and B are used. If three (3) or more units are
operated in close proximity, use Channels A, C and D. Do not use Channel B because it may conflict
with Channel C. See Multiple Unit Operation in Section 11.3. Press ACCESS for next adjustment or
OPERATE to return to normal operation.
5.5 VIDEO FILTER
This filter permits the unit to function effectively in proximity with video terminals of all types, computer,
broadcast, closed circuit, etc. This filter may not apply to certain non-synchronous noise sources.
Settings from 1 to 90 are possible through the use of + and - touchpads. If noise is observed at your
desired operating sensitivity, increment the Video Filter settings to locate the setting with least interfer-
ence as observed by fluctuation of the Bar Graph.
Press ACCESS for the next adjustment or OPERATE to return to normal operation.
5.6 Relay
This feature allows the AC and DC relay circuits to be changed easily to Normally Open (N/O) or
Normally Closed (N/C) to meet installation requirements. Use + and - touchpads to select RELAY
N/C or RELAY N/O (See Section 11.4). Press ACCESS for next adjustment or OPERATE to return
to normal operation.
6. SUPERVISOR ADJUSTMENTS
Several adjustments may be made at the Supervisor’s Level (Access Code #1). These are primarily
program/sensitivity settings and the operation of the IR Sensor. These supervisor’s adjustments can
be accessed only through use of a four-digit code (See instructions for altering Access Code #1 under
Installation Adjustments, Section 5.7)
To access the Supervisor Adjustment Mode for the first time, press the ACCESS touchpad and the
factory preset code of 1234. The factory default settings of PROG D SENS 160 will be displayed on
the LCD with the program designation blinking. Pressing the ACCESS touchpad will permit scrolling
through these selections.
Special Note
For maximum security it is recommended that both Access Code numbers be changed from the fac-
tory default settings and that the numbers be known only to those who use them. Record the new
code numbers on the Access Settings card that accompanied this User’s Manual. It is also suggested
that codes be changed periodically, especially when any changes are made in personnel with access
to the codes.
6.1 Program
The programs detailed in Section 11 have been developed for use by the Garrett
CS 5000. These brief descriptions will give some indication of the intent of each program, but a final
judgment on the setting of each individual unit should be determined by the intent of its installation.
After the Program number is accessed through use of the four-digit code, + touchpad can be used to
increase the number, and the - touchpad to lower it. Press ACCESS for next adjustment or OPERATE
to return to normal operation.
6.2 Sensitivity
This option permits the unit to be adjusted (range of 1 to 200) to the proper level of
sensitivity within a chosen program. Press ACCESS until the SENS and the number are displayed on
the LCD. Use the + and - touchpads to adjust the number. Sensitivity of detection will be increased as
the number is made larger, allowing alarm responses on smaller targets.
After the desired Sensitivity number has been selected, press ACCESS for next adjustment or
OPERATE to return to normal operation.
6.3 IR Analysis
The Garrett CS 5000 utilizes an Infrared Sensor to enhance the operation of the unit in special situ-
ations. IR Analysis — ON or OFF appears on the LCD to indicate whether or not the IR Analysis is
being used. The + or - touchpad is used to turn the IR Analysis off and on. Whenever this is done, it is
necessary to press ACCESS for the next adjustment or OPERATE to return to normal operation.
Utilization of the Infrared Sensor is not required for operation of the CS 5000 and may be disabled if
desired.
such as when luggage or supply carts pass by, or when lack of space requires the unit to be placed
very near a conveyor belt of parcel X-ray equipment, the sensor will effectively inhibit alarms.
3. The IR Analysis provides a warning any time a person passes through the archway when the unit
is in the Set-Up or Self-Test Mode.
4. The IR Analysis enables the detector to count the number of individuals passing through it.
Press the ACCESS touchpad until PLEASE WAIT appears on the LCD Display, followed by ALARM
LEVEL and a number. The target in question should then be passed through the unit. Note the Alarm
Reading number that then appears on the LCD. This is the Sensitivity level that will be necessary
for the unit to sound an alarm on this target. Press the + touchpad to reset the indicator after each
measurement. It is recommended that several measurements of each object in question be made at
various archway positions to obtain the optimum sensitivity level setting.
7. SUPERVISOR RESPONSIBILITIES
7.1 CALIBRATION
Calibration settings of walk-through metal detectors are dependent upon individual security screening
requirements and, therefore, must be the responsibility of the screening installation. Program and
Sensitivity settings should be established at a level that permits the detector to detect all forbidden
objects that can be reasonably expected to appear at a particular screening station. Actual forbidden
objects should be used as targets for initial calibration.
1. Set-up Alarm: Produces two short beeps as a person is walking through the unit. This alarm indi-
cates that the metal detector is in a set-up mode and is not ready for operation. Wait for green Ready
light (press OPERATE touchpad, if necessary). Person(s) who triggered the Set-up Alarm must pass
through the unit again.
2. Standard Alarm: Occurs when red Alarm light appears and a targeted amount of metal is
detected according to Program and Sensitivity levels.
3. Warble Alarm: Occurs when a large metal mass, such as a wheelchair, furniture or large
metal container is moved through or near the CS 5000. The large amount of metal has
saturated the detector’s receiver circuits and the warble alarm is an indicator that the operator should
correct the situation before allowing anyone to pass through the metal detector.
Calibration and verification can be performed with an Operational Test Piece (OTP), which is an object
similar in size, shape and composition to the smallest forbidden target. Once the walk-through metal
detector is properly calibrated, an OTP may be used to simulate the forbidden objects and verify cali-
bration on a regular basis. The OTP thereby offers a generally accepted means of verifying calibration
without the necessity of having on hand actual weapons at the screening station on a daily basis.
If the OTP does not represent a specific security requirement then a different test piece(s) should be
considered.
7.3 Testing
It is imperative that a standard test program be developed for walk-through metal detectors within a
security system. The various tests should be made on a regular basis to ensure that each unit is prop-
erly calibrated and is detecting metal. The OTP has been designed to serve as a basic instrument for
use in such a test program.
A test program should include passing the OTP and/or other objects through each metal detector at
various specified heights and horizontal positions, with the OTP (objects) held in different orientations.
The number of repetitions required at each level with corresponding successful alarms should be
established, and this testing system should be adhered to consistently.
Included in the test procedure should be the requirement that the tester be free of all metallic items,
including shoe shanks, prior to arming himself with the OTP. A hand-held metal detector can be used
to confirm that the tester is “clean” of extraneous metallic items.
7.4 ANKLE BOOST
The CS 5000 (Version 2.60 or greater, as displayed in Self-Test, Page 10) incorporates the ability to
adjust the sensitivity at ankle level without increasing sensitivity throughout the passageway. The fac-
tory setting is with standard ankle boost to allow easier passage of shoes containing metal shanks.
Two additional levels of boost are available for higher levels of security.
This adjustment should be used only when sensitivity at ankle level needs to be increased.
7.4.1. Procedure:
• Disconnect the unit from AC power source (switch off battery back-up module, if installed
• Open access door of detection unit;
• Remove the three (3) screws that hold the controller cover. Move jumpers as shown in the above
diagram to achieve the required level of boost (both jumpers must be set to the same level);
• Replace cover and reconnect power;
• Test unit to assure desired performance level.
7.4.2. Applications:

Exact control of the unit’s sensitivity is assured by a system with 200 precise and repeatable steps
for each program level, regulated by state-of-the-art touchpads and reported visually on the LCD.
Improved security of the unit’s detection settings comes from a totally new system of access codes.
Two levels of codes eliminate the need for bothersome keys for locked doors or other protective
devices, while the CS 5000’s circuitry provides precise accuracy of calibration never before achieved.
Access Code #1 is used by supervisors for selecting programs and sensitivity, with Access Code #2
designed for initial set-up and overall control. All settings are encoded by touchpads and stored in a
resettable memory.
Security of the unit’s calibration settings is further protected by a non-resettable sequence code that
allows supervisors to keep a log of all changes that are ever made to the program, sensitivity or set
up, as well as any unsuccessful attempt at changing them. In addition, a tamper indication reports any
unauthorized attempts at access.
A complete and automatic self-diagnostic program is carried out by the CS 5000 each time the
OPERATE touchpad is pressed. In addition, the detector utilizes self-testing circuitry that enables it to
identify and report automatically the failure of elements that would affect operation of the unit.
10.8 Touchpads
Eight touchpads on the overhead Control Panel perform all control functions.
10.8.1 STANDBY
When this touchpad is pressed, the unit goes into a low power mode, ready to be returned to full
operation when the OPERATE pad is touched. Operators should use all touchpads only as instructed
by supervisors.
10.8.2 Operate
When this touchpad is pressed, the CS 5000 activates all circuits, initiates a self-
diagnostic program and places the unit in the Operate Mode within 10 seconds.
This diagnostic program for instant fault detection can be activated at any time by touching this
Operate pad. If any faults are ever found, they will be immediately reported on the LCD display.
(See Section 4.1.1)
10.8.3 Counter
Since the current traffic count of the CS 5000 is usually displayed, this touchpad will be needed only for
resetting the counter. Pressing and holding this touchpad for ten (10) seconds causes the counter to
return to zero (0). Whenever the LCD displays information other than the current traffic count, pressing
this touchpad will cause the count to appear.
10.8.4 Volume
When this touchpad is pressed, the volume level of the unit’s audible alarm will be
displayed on the LCD display. By using the + and - touchpads, operators can raise or lower the vol-
ume.
10.8.5 + and -
These touchpads will be used to increase or decrease various numerical settings and for certain On/
Off functions.
10.8.6 Program
When this touchpad is pressed, the settings for Program and Sensitivity will appear on the LCD
display.
All of the preceding touchpad functions will be available to operators of the detector at all times. The
Access touchpad will be used only by supervisors.
• These directives will govern the response of operators to alarms and other situations that will be
encountered. The basic continuing responsibility of the operator will be to ensure that the CS 5000
operates properly at all times as indicated by its LCD panel and that ALL alarms are investigated.
As described in the CONTROLS section of this manual, CS 5000 controls are located in the top sec-
tion of the archway. If the green READY light is not visible on the control panel, press the OPERATE
touchpad. Operators can also adjust volume of the alarm and can reset the traffic counter.
The green Ready light must always be on before anyone is permitted to enter the
archway for inspection.
The green light will “wink” whenever anyone breaks the IR beam across the archway or whenever
there is a noise “spike.” If the green Ready light should ever go off and remain off, however, the
operator should immediately press the OPERATE touchpad. The detector will then institute a self-test
program with results reported on the LCD display. All traffic through the unit must be halted until the
green READY light again appears and remains constant.
• IR Fail (Error 3): Some obstruction within the unit may be blocking the IR sensor that projects across
the archway. Operator should make certain that the openings for the IR sensor on each side of the
archway, approximately 30 inches from the floor, have not been blocked in any way.
• Receiver Balance (Error 4): This problem could be caused by the presence of a large metal object
that has been placed near the unit. Operators should look for such an object and move it.
Even though these actions may temporarily solve the problems discovered by the self diagnostic pro-
gram, supervisors should be notified.
While the detector is operating, if a test ever shows a failure that severely limits or prohibits acceptable
performance of the unit, the alarm will sound and the LED display will flash. This flashing will continue
until power is removed or the cause of failure is corrected.
If an alarm sounds after the person has removed metal objects, hand scanning is mandatory to find
the source of metal sounding the alarm. This metal must always be found before a person can be
allowed to proceed.
An operator should take nothing for granted! The source that causes any alarm must be discovered.
If a concealed weapon is ever found, the operator should follow instructions that have been given by
supervisors.
It is important to remember that after power has been turned on, the CS 5000 is
operating at all times. Its IR Sensor capability inhibits the alarm only when there is no object or person
within the archway.
Because of the high level of design quality represented by the CS 5000 and its IR
Sensor, it can be expected to produce relatively few “nuisance alarms” when installed properly.
Nevertheless, operators should always follow instructions from supervisors about reporting them.
On rare occasions a nuisance source might trigger the alarm just as someone is passing through the
detector. An operator should never try to guess about the source of such an alarm, and it should never
be assumed that the alarm is a nuisance. There have been occasions when an individual would inten-
tionally bump against a detector while passing through it and try to blame an alarm on the bump.
If an alarm sounds for any reason while a person is passing through the archway, that person must
be asked to walk through the unit again and/or be examined for metallic objects with a hand-held
detector.
Any attempt at access to the detector’s controls will also be indicated by an increase in the SEQUENCE
code as reported on the LCD display. Any unauthorized attempt at access that activates the Tamper
Alarm will be indicated by this symbol (*) adjacent to the SEQUENCE code number. If the tamper
Alarm ever sounds, an operator should follow supervisor’s instructions.
10.18 Counter
If the current traffic count is not being reported on the LCD display, press this touchpad to view it.
Pressing and holding this touchpad for ten (10) seconds enables the operator to return the traffic
counter to zero (0). Supervisors will issue instructions concerning this control and its use by individual
operators.
10.19 Summary
It is important that all operators study the guidelines in this section carefully and remember their basic
responsibilities for operating the CS 5000 as stated on the first page:
Most important of all is the operator’s responsibility to make certain that every alarm be investigated
and that the reason for that alarm be determined.
The CS 5000 is a fine walk-through metal detector. But, in the end, even an electronic device as
sophisticated as this is only a tool. Ultimate success of its operation is dependent upon:
• The training and diligence of the men and women who operate it;

11.2 PROGRAMS
Note: Although different settings are required for different applications, the manufacturer
finds Program D most effective for high volume high security; Program A for low volume
maximum security; and Program 9 in loss prevention situations and in cases where noise
problems limit performance of custom programs. It is the responsibility of the user to select
and implement that program which is best suited to a particular situation.
11.2.3 Program A
• Custom program designed to detect the broadest range of objects.
• Emphasis of detection is on conductive objects. This program provides the highest level of security
available in the CS 5000.
• Immunity to external noise is moderate, making this program usable in most environments.
• Discrimination is poor.
• Recommended applications include prisons and other installations where volume requirements
allow thorough inspection of each individual.

For proper operation, each walk-through metal detector must be set to receive no interference from
adjoining units. This can be determined by observing the bar graph indication of one unit while
switching the remaining unit(s) from Standby to Operate. If the noise flicker increases on the BAR
GRAPH of a unit, then it may be necessary to select another set-up.

11.4.1 AC Control
Connection of an external alarm, locking device or other component may be made as shown below.
The optically-isolated triac output will conduct only during the time that the Red Alarm light is illu-
minated. It is recommended that the control not exceed 48Vrms and 100mA. The output is electri-
cally isolated from ground.
11.4.2 DC Control
The three drawings that follow illustrate alternate methods of connecting an external device which
has requirements of low voltage direct current. The output is an open collector configuration capable
of switching 15V at 100mA or less, which includes connections to computing devices and other
equipment requiring low level DC.
11.5.1 Installation
• With power disconnected locate archway and console in their desired locations;
• Locate connecting wire and protect from tampering or vandalism, as necessary;
• Plug the wire into the rear of the console;
• Open the Access Door of the detection unit;
• Remove three (3) screws that hold the controller cover;
• Plug the wire into the Circuit Board connector as shown on Page 23;
