and floor 1.5 m
Min. calibration distance 1.5 m
Hysterese ±30 cm

Sensor temperature
compensation The built-in temperature
compensation makes the
sensor stabile and
reliable without any
calibration
Water and condensation-resistant The bottom part plus
sensor has been
designed in a such a
way that water entering
from the ceiling flows
right through the sensor
and out of small holes
in the transparent part
of the sensor without
getting in contact with
the electronic board and
without doing any damage.
LED indication:

Occupied: Red LED continuously lit
Bay available: Green LED continuously lit
GP62202202 724-US
Occupied: Red LED continuously lit

GP62402224 724-US No LED
The sensor uses 2 Dupline®
addresses
• Status address Indicates the status of
the sensor.
Default Dupline® address
is A2
• Calibration address For common sensor
calibration.
Default Dupline® address
is P1
Programming unit GP7380 0080
Approval cULus (UL60950)
MTBF 70,000 hours
Mode of Operation
The ceramic sensor emits
an acoustic signal at a frequency of 40 kHz which is
reflected when it hits the floor
and returned to the sensor.
The reflected signal indicates
whether the parking bay is
available or occupied.
Sensor
addresses
• Status
Dupline® address
The Dupline bus address
used by the sensor to transmit the status of the parking
bay. The same address can
be used to force the red LED
ON** for booking of free parking bays (this feature requires
management by central PC
software). Please refer to
the Dupline Carpark system
manual for further information
about the Dupline addressing
scheme and the rules that
apply for the assignment.
• Calibration
Dupline
®
address
This address is used to trig-
ger the sensor to perform a
self calibration. Several sensors can be given the same
calibration address, thereby
making it possible to calibrate multiple sensors at
once by sending a single trigger signal on that address.
The programming unit
GP73800080 is used to send
out the trigger signal.
Modes
The sensor has two modes.
Normal mode or Lane mode.
In Normal mode, the sensor
detects the presence of a car
in the parking bay and lights
the red LED**. See fig. 1 on
page 4. At the same time
the sensor sends a signal
out on the
Dupline® 3-wire
bus. When the parking bay
is empty the LED will change
to green** and also send a
signal out on the
Dupline
®
3-wire
bus.
The sensor will not react to
objects lower than 0,3 m.
To avoid a weak signal, the
sensor must be installed
pointing directly at a hard
surface, as for instance concrete. A soft or uneven surface will reduce the signal.
In Lane mode, the sensor is
designed to be mounted in
the ceiling above the lane.
The sensor is able to detect
moving cars with a maximum
speed of 20 km/hour. See fig.
2 on page 4.
When the sensor detects a
moving car it sends a signal
to the Carpark system that
count down the total amount
of free places, and show
the reduced amount on the
local display but also on the
display that show the total
amount of free places.
This is to prevent to many
moving cars in a specific carpark area. The sensor does
not show the actual status on
the LED’s. The LED’s** only
works as feedback during
calbration, startup and show
the fail status.
Sensor used as “count sensor” with the MZC
The sensor can also be used
in a count system, where rapid detection is needed. When
two sensors are mounted in
the ceiling after each other,
the connected GPMZC can
detect the cars and also
the direction in which the
cars are going. The “Lane
Mode” that is used for sensors in “count mode”, has
additional functions where
the installer can program
the sensor to detect cars
with different velocities. The
LED is programmable to be
either selected or deselected. Please refer to the MZC
installation manual for further
information.
