Section 1 General Description

This Operation Manual was written for people installing, operat ing, and maintaining Reno A & E Model S-1300 Series inductive loop vehicle detectors. The Model S-1300 is a two channel, shelf mount type, inductive loop vehicle detector designed to meet or exceed NEMA Standards TS 1-1989.

The Model S-1300 incorporates a microcontroller that monitors and process es signals from two separate loop / lead-in circuits and two Phase Green Inp uts. The microcontroller uses these inputs to determine how to c ontro l the detec tor o utp uts. A Liqu id Crysta l Disp lay ( LCD), two light e mitt ing diodes (LEDs), and four front panel pushbuttons are used to display and program all detector functions. Several diagnostic modes are available to aid technicians and service personnel in troubleshooting detection problems.

The use of a LCD is what distinguishes this detector from that of other manufacturers. It allows more informat ion, never before available, to be displa yed to t he use r during normal operation of the detector. The LCD makes it easy to view and adjust all programmable detector opt ions and settings. It is no longer necessary to check o r change detector settings with DIP sw itches. An eight-segment bargraph at the top of the L CD can be used to provide a graphical representation of the relative change of inductance as seen by the detector at the current sensitivity level. The bargraph automatically takes into account loop size, loop inductance, nu mber of loops, number of turns, loop geometry, lead-in lengt h, e tc. The bargraph functions as a sliding scale that relates to the programmed Sensitivity Level. The first (left-most) bargraph segment represents the minimum inductance change necessary for the detector to output a call at the currently selected sensitivity leve l. Larger i nducta nce chan ges will i ndicate more segments. Each additional segment indicates that the next sensitivity level has also been met or exceeded. When used in t his manne r, the bar graph prov ides an ind ication of whether t he sensiti vity is set too high or too low, facilitating the ideal setting of the se ns itivity level.

All programmed settings are stored in non-volatile memory and can only be changed by programming new settings. Loss of power or a de tector reset will not change any of t he p rogrammed settings. If a loop failure occurs, the LCD will display the type of lo op failure as L lo (for -25% change or shorted loop conditions) or L hi (for +25% change or open loop c onditions). Each loop failure is counte d and accumulated in the Loop Failure Memory. The number of loop failures since the last detector reset or power interruption is very useful information to have available during analysis of intermittent loop operation.

The Model S-1300 Series detector is a scanning detector. The scanning operation sequentially activates t he ON and OFF cycle of each channel’s oscillator. Since only one channel’s loop(s) is (are) active at a given time, crosstalk between adjacent loops connected to the same scanning detector is mini mize d. The Model S-1300 Series’ unique scanning process a lso disconnects the capac itors and dampe ns the oscillator during t he OFF cycle. This eliminates oscillation past the OFF po int (ringing or dec ay) every time the loop circuit is sca nned, which can result in crosstalk. W hen operating in the Program Mode, t he Model S-1300 Series disp lays t he rea l time loop frequency reading for each channel. T he eight frequency settings ca n be incremented or decremented to p rovide precise frequency readings, removing any guesswork when changing frequency settings to eli minate crosstalk. NOTE: Adjacent loops connected to different c hannels of a non-scanning dete ctor or d ifferent scanning dete ctors should be set to different frequencies with maximum separation.

The Reno A & E Model S-1300 Series utilizes the first major innovatio n in inductive loop detectors since the introduction of digital detecto rs. The programming of all of the detector’s para meters with four normally open pushbutton switches not o nly simplifies setup by removing binary coded DIP switches, but also increases the reliability of the detector by eliminating the dependence on switch contacts during normal operation. The detailed descriptions displayed on the LCD eliminate the interpretation of numerous LED flash rates to determine the detector status. In addition, the Model S-1300 offers t he versatility of softwa re control. Special funct ions are possible with a simple change of the s ocket-mounted microprocessor. Special functions are de fined as unique optio ns (e. g. Opt ion 6, Option 12, etc. ). Special opt ion functions are activated through t he use of the LCD menu option programming.

The Model S-1300 Series is comprised of the following detectors:

S-1300-R For NEMA TS 1-1989 applications calling for a two channel, 120 volt AC,

S-1300-SS For NEMA TS 1-1989 applications calling for a two channel, 120 volt AC,

Section 2 General Characteristics

2.1 LOOP FREQUENCY

There are eight (8) selectable loop frequency settings (nor mally in the range of 20 to 100 kilohertz) per c hannel. The actual loop operating frequency is a function of the loop / lead-in network and the components of the loop oscillator circuit. The d igital display of the actual loop operating frequency for each setting makes it easy to quickly identify and eliminate crossta lk in the most difficult to configure intersections. The frequency display is typica lly very stab le when the loop is vacant and veh icles are not passing nearby the loops. If the reading is varyin g by more than ±1 in the last digit, this is an indication of possible crossta lk betwee n loops.

2.2 SENSITIVITY

There are nine (9) selectable sensitivity levels per channel, plus Continuous-Call and Cha nne l-O f f. T he s ensitiv i t y levels are designed so that a one level increase actually doubles the sensitivity and a one level decrease halves the sensitivity. A unique bargraph d isplayed on t he LCD makes it eas y to quickly set sensitivity at t he ideal leve l for any loop / lead-in network configuration. (See Section 3.4 for actual detection levels at each sensitivity level.)

ONTINUOUS-CALL: Whe n se t t o t he Co nt in uo us -Call state , the c hannel ou tput is co ntinuous ly in t he Call state

regardless of t he presence or absence of vehicles o ver the loop. The loop oscillator is d isabled when in the Continuous-Call state. T his state is indicated b y CALL flashing on the LCD. This option is selected from the Sensitivity menu in Program Mode and is useful for checking co ntroller response and other troubleshooting activities.

HANNEL-OFF: When s et to the Channel-O ff state, the channel output is cont inuously in the No Call state

regardless of the presence or absence of vehicles over the loop. The loop oscillator is disabled when in the Channel-Off State. This sta te is indicated by OFF flashing on t he LCD. This option is selected from the Sensitivity menu in Program Mode and is useful for checking co ntroller response and other troubleshooting activities.

2.3 PRESENCE / PULSE

One of two mutually exclusive modes of operation for each channel is available. Presence or Pulse mode is toggled by momentarily pressing e ither the  (UP) or  (DOWN) button.

RESENCE MODE: Provides a call hold time of at least four min utes (regardless of vehicle size) and typically one

to three hours for an automobile or truck. P

ULSE MODE: An output Pulse of 125 ±10 milliseconds duration is generated for each vehicle entering the loop

detection zone. Each detected vehicle is instantly tuned out if it remains in the loop detection zone longer than two seconds. This enables detection of subsequent vehicles entering the loop detection zone. After each vehicle leaves the loop detection zone, the cha nnel resumes full sensitivity within 0.5 seconds.

2.4 CALL DELAY

Each channel’s Call Delay is ad justab le from 0 t o 255 seconds in one-second steps. Call Delay time starts counting down when a vehicle enters the loop detection zo ne. The remaining Ca ll Delay time i s continuous ly displayed on the LCD . W he ne ver a P has e Gr ee n I np ut ( C all D e lay O ve rr id e) si gna l (p i n J o f t he M S co nne ct or of c ha nne l 1 or

2) is active, the Call Delay func tion for the channel is aborted and the Call Delay time is forced to zero.

2.5 CALL EXTENSION

Each channel’s Call Extension is adjustable from 0 to 255 sec onds in one-second steps. Extension time sta rts counting down when the last vehicle clears the loop detection zone. The remaining Call Extension time is contin uous ly d isp la yed o n the LCD. Any veh icle ente r ing t he lo op de tec tio n zo ne d uri ng t he Ca ll E xtens io n ti me period causes the channel to return to the Detect state, and later, when the last vehicle clears the loop detection zone, the full Call Exte nsion time starts counting down again. (See Option 3, Call Extension Contro l, for an alternate mode of operation for Call E xtension.)

2.6 MAX PRESENCE TIMER

When activated, each channel’s Max Presence timer is adjustable from 1 to 999 seconds in one-second steps. A setting of OFF turns the Max Presence timer off. The Max Presence function is used to limit presence time, by automatically resetting the channel. If this function is enabled (ON), the Max Pre sence timer begins counting down when a call is initiated and t he remaining ti me is continuously displaye d on the LCD. If t he loop becomes vacant before the Max Presence timer reaches zero, the call is dropped and no automatic reset occurs. If the EndOf-Green (EO G) func tion is no t enab led (O FF) and th e call is s till pre sent when the Max Presence timer reaches

889-1908-00 Model S-1300 Operations Manual Rev Apr 2020 Page 2 of 25

Page 9

zero, the cha nnel then is aut omatically reset. If the EOG functi on is e nabled (ON) and the call is still present w hen the Max Presence timer reaches zero, the channel enters a Wait state. The Wait state continues until either the loop becomes vacant or the Phase Green Input signal for a channel (pin J of the MS connector) transitions from green to not green with the call still present. If the loop becomes vacant first, the call is dropped and no automatic reset occurs. If the Phase Green Input transitions from green to not green while a cha nne l is in a Wait state, the channel is automatically reset. The signals on pin J of the MS connectors of channels 1 and 2 are also called Call Delay Overrides. (See Section 3.2, Phase Green Input specification for voltage levels.)

2.7 END-OF-GREEN (EOG)

Each channel’s EOG setting can be toggled O N or OFF b y moment arily pr essing either the  (UP) or  (DOWN) button. The EOG function is used to synchronize resetting of a detector with the termination of t he associated phase green. The assumption is that t his is the sa fest point in t ime to reset the c hannel. T his assumption is based on the premise that at the termination of t he as s ociated p hase green, traffic should be moving, and therefore, a reset would not result in the loss of a ca ll when traffic comes to rest over the loop(s). The EOG function is only available when the Max Presence function is set between 1 and 999 seconds. It is not available when the Max Presence function is OFF. When the EOG function is enab led (ON), the channel will automatically be reset at the same time the Phase Green Input signal (pin J of the MS connector) transitions from the ON state to the OFF state, if the Max Presence Time has counted down to zero and is resting in the wait state. The signa ls on pin J of the MS connectors of channels 1 and 2 are also called Call Delay Override. (See Section 3.2, Phase Green Input specifications for voltage levels.)

2.8 OPTION 1: LOOP INDUCTANCE DISPLAY

Each cha n ne l’s Loo p Induc ta nce D isp la y se tt in g ca n be to gg led O N o r O FF b y mome nt ar il y pre ss i ng e it he r the  (UP) or  (DO W N ) b u t to n. W hen this option is e na b le d (ON), t he LCD d is p lays the to t al lo o p i nd uc t a nc e (a c t ua l loop inductance plus actual lead-in inductanc e) in micro henrie s for lo op ind uctance values in the r ange of 2 0 to 2500 microhenries. By recording the inductance of the loop / lead-in circuit when it is first insta lled, the actual inductance can be compared to the expected ind uctance to help identify defective loop / lead -in circuits. Loop / lead-in inductance can be easily estimated using the simple formulas included in Section 8.7 of this manual.

NOTE: Enabling this option activates i t for both channe ls. Th is option is automat ica lly disabled 15 m inutes after activation or on loss of power.

2.9 OPTION 2: LOOP INDUCTANCE -∆L/L DISPLAY

Each cha n ne l’s Loo p I nd uct a nce -∆L/L Display sett ing can be toggled ON or OFF by momentarily press ing either the  (UP) or  (DOWN ) button. When this o ption is enab led (ON), the LCD dis plays the per centage of induct ance change (-∆L/L value) during the Call state. To fac ilitate the viewing of the maximum amount of change in the -∆L/L value w hile traffic is in motion over the detection zone, the channel holds the peak -∆L/L value for a period of two seconds. NOTE: Enabling t his option activates it for both channels. This option is automatically disabled 15 minutes after activation or on loss of power.

2.10 OPTION 3: CA L L EXTENSION CONTROL

Each cha nnel’ s Cal l Exte nsion C ontro l set ting ca n be to ggled O N or OF F by mo mentar ily pre ssin g eithe r the  (UP) or  (DO WN ) b ut to n. W he n t h is o pt io n is e nab led (O N) , t he c ha n nel w ill e x tend ca l ls f or t he pr o gra mme d extens ion t ime only whe n the Phase Green Input signal (pin J of the MS connector) is active. When this option is OFF, the channel extends ALL calls for the programmed extension time. The signals on pin J of the MS connectors of channels 1 and 2 are also called Call Delay Overrides. (See Section 3.2, Phase Green Input specifications for voltage levels.)

2.11 OPTION 4: NOISE FILTER DISABLE

The detector’s Noise Filter Disable setting can be toggled ON or OFF by momentarily pressing either the  (UP) or  ( DO WN ) b utt o n. W he n Op t io n 4 is e nab led (ON), internal noise filtering is disabled thus provid ing a faster response time. When this option is O FF, internal noise filtering is utilized. W hen the detector is used in speed and/or occupancy applications, the noise filter should be disabled (i.e. Option 4 ON) to provide the most accurate data possible. It is recommended t hat this option not be activated. The factory default setting o f OFF provides stable operation in high crosstalk e nvironments. NOTE: Enabling this option activates it for both channels. Changing the setting of this feature will reset both detector channels.

The Loop Fail Count is not reset when the setting of Option 4 is changed. Also, changing the setting of Option 4 will not cause the prior Loop Fail indication to cease (see Section 5.3, Loop Fail Indications).

Loop A

2.12 OPTION 5: PHASE GREEN LOOP COMPENSATION

Each channel’s Phase Green Loop Co mpensation setting can be toggled ON or OFF by mo mentarily pressing either the  (UP) o r  (DOWN) bu t ton. When Op t io n 5 is e na b le d ( O N) , no rmal loop compe nsation is used until the Phase Green Input signal (pin J of the MS connector) becomes active (low). Once the Phase Gr een Input sign al is active (high), the channel desensitizes the loop. Maximum desensitization is 0.05% (-∆L/L). This desensitization tunes out small changes, such as adjacent lane pickup, therefore minimizing the chance of max timing an empty lane. Note: A small motorcycle may also be tuned out in a short period of time following the star t

of Phase Green. This option is useful in minimizing false detec tion resulting from adjacent lane pickup when a channel must be run with a high sensitivity setting. When Option 5 is not enabled (OFF), normal loop compensation is used.

2.13 OPTION 9: THIRD CAR PASSAGE

Each channel’s Third Car Passage setting can be toggled O N or O FF b y momentarily pressing either the  (UP) or  (DO WN ) b ut to n. O p tio n 9 is a p a ire d cha nne l opt io n. Th is me ans t hat it ta ke s t w o c ha nne ls to imp le me nt the

feature. Therefore, when this option is toggled ON or OFF in one channel, its paired channe l is also set to the same state. In the Model S-1300, Channel 1 is paired with Channel 2. NOTE: Option 9 is mut ually exclusive with Optio n 10. Turning ON one option will automatically turn OFF the other option.

When Op t ion 9 is e nab led (ON ) , t he o utp u t o f the tw o pa ir ed c ha n ne ls a re log ic a lly AND ed t o get he r. Th is mea ns that while the loops for both of the paired channels are occ upied, a call will be output on both channe ls. While only o ne c han ne l is oc cupied, or neither channel is occupied, a c all will not be output for either channel. The first channel with detection will enter a pend ing state w hile wait ing for detect ion on the ot her pa ired cha nnel. While in the pending state, the LCD will show Pnd on the display.

This feature is intended to be used in Pro tected / Permissive left turn situations. The expected ins tallation is a stop bar loop for the left turn lane connected to one c hanne l, a queue detect ion loop (with a s mall amount o f delay ti me programmed) for the left turn lane connected to the other channel, and the output of eithe r channel conne cted to the Vehicle Call input for the protected movement of the traffic controller.

Basic Installation - Loop A is the Queue Detec tion lo op and Loop B is the Stop Bar loop.

Car enters Loop A - No ca ll is o utp ut.

Car proceeds to Loop B - No call is output.

Addit io na l c ars ente r t he left tur n lane - When the bac k o f t he queue reaches Loop A while a car is still over Loop B, a call will be output.

When T hird Car P assage is turned o n, as the f irst vehi cle enter s the lef t turn la ne it will d rive ove r the queue detection loop. Since there is no vehic le over the stop bar loop, there is no call output genera ted. The vehicle advances to the stop bar loop. Still, no output is generated because there is no vehicle over the queue detection loop. If the vehicle traffic in the left turn lane backs up to the queue detection loop, then the stop bar loop and the queue detection loop will both be occupied at the same time. This will cause the detector to generate a ca ll to t he traffic controller to service the protected movement for the left turn. This should help clear the que ue of vehicles in the left turn lane. The spacing between the stop bar loop and the queue detection loop controls the size of the queue needed to generate a call to the protected movement of the controller. The delay time on the Queue Detection loop should be sufficiently long that vehic les driving over this loop to enter the queue do not generate a call.

2.14 OPTION 10: DIRECTIONAL LOGIC

Each channel’s Directional Logic setting can be toggled ON or OFF by momentarily pressing either t he  (UP) or  (DOWN) button. Option 10 is a paired c hannel option. This means that it takes two channe ls to implement t he

feature. Therefore, when this option is toggled ON or OFF in one channel, its paired channe l is a lso set to the sa me

state. In the Model S-1300, Cha nnel 1 is pair ed wit h Cha nnel 2. NOTE: Op tion 1 0 is mut ually e xclus ive w ith Optio n 9. Turni ng ON one o ption will auto matica lly turn O F F the other option.

When Option 10 is enabled (ON), directional logic is enabled. Directional logic starts with a detection on one channel. This channel will go into the pending state, display Pnd on the LC D , a nd N O T output a c a l l. W hen both of the paired channels have dete ction, the last channel to have detection will output a call until the detection for the last c ha n ne l e nd s , e ve n if t h e d e te c t ion ends fo r t he fi rs t c hannel. None of t he t i mi n g f un c t io ns of the f ir s t channe l with a detection will ti me (Delay, Extens ion, Max Presence, a nd Detector Disconnect) a nd the first channel w ill always operate in the Presence Mode regardless of the programming of the channel.

This feature is intended to be used in parking lot applicatio ns where vehicles can e nter or exit from the sa me lane, freewa y ra mp s for wro ng w a y de tec t ion, a nd le ft t urn lane s whe re ot her mo ve men ts in t he inte rs ec ti o n te nd t o cl ip the detection zone of the left turn lane. The expected installation is two loops, one after the other in the same lane, spaced anywhere from slightly overlapping to 6 feet apar t. NOTE: Contact a Field Engineer at Reno A & E regarding proper loop configurations and spacing for specific applications.

When Directional Detect ion is turned on, a vehicle entering the first loop will cause that channel to enter t he pending state. As the vehicle enters the second loop w hile still occupying the first loop, the second channel will enter the Call state while the first c hanne l remains in t he pending s tate. A call is never outp ut on the first c hannel with a detection. Under normal conditions both outputs can never be on at the same time. However, if one of the loops fail, both outputs will come on a nd stay on until the failure is corrected.

2.15 OPTION 11, AUDIBLE DETECT SIGNA L

Each channel’s, Audible Detect Signal setting ca n be toggled ON or OFF by mo mentarily pressing either t he  (UP) or  (DOWN) butto n. Only one channel can be turned ON at a time. Turning this option ON for one channe l automatically t u r ns it O F F fo r t he o t he r channe l. W hen this o p t io n is ena b le d (ON), a n audible signal w i l l be activated whenever the detection zone for the selected channel is occupied. The audible signal indicates actual occupancy of the loop detection zone. Timing a nd disconnect functio ns have no e ffect on t he audible s ignal. T his feature allows a technician to watch the det ection zone on the street and confirm correct detector operation without having to look at the detector display as well. NOTE: This option is automatical ly disabled 15 minutes after

activation or on loss of power.

2.16 OPTION 12: DETECTOR DISCONNECT

Each channel’s Detector Disconnect se tting can be toggled ON o r OFF and the Extension t imer toggled between ON and OFF by momenta r il y pr es sing ei t h er t he  (UP) or  (DOWN) button. The Detector Disconnect feature requires that the Phase Green Input for the channel be connected to the proper controller phase. When the Phase Green I nput is n ot a cti ve (low), the cha nne l s hal l oper ate nor ma lly. W hen t he P has e Gre en I np ut is active (high), the extension timer will start to count down at the end of each detection. If this timer reaches zero before the next detection, this channel will no longer output a call until the Phase Green Input is not active. Since t he extension timer is used as a disconnect timer while in this mode, two different disconnect types are available:

Optio n 12.1 OF F : Extension timi ng stil l o ccurs and the e xt ension timer is also the discon nect timer duri ng phase green. This will cause the call output to remain in the Ca ll state until disconnect occurs. Th is may allow the user to use gap times appropriate for the advance loops without considering the effects on the stop bar loops.

Option 12.1 ON: Extension timing is disabled and the extension timer is used a s the disconnect timer. This will cause the call output to follow the occupation of the loop detection zone until disconnect occurs.

This feature is intended to be used in applications where a loop at the stop ba r is not needed after any waiting queue in the associated traffic lane is movi ng during t he green p hase. The e xpected installatio n is a sto p bar loop

When the signal t urns green, vehicles begin to move and eve ntually the stop bar detection zone is cleared. At the time that the stop bar detection zone is cleared the disconnect timer begins to count down. If another vehic le enters the stop bar detection zone before the disconnect timer reaches zero, the channel outputs the new call to the traffic controller and the disconnect t imer is reset to its initial value. Once the stop bar detection zone remains clear for a time eq ual to the programmed disconnect time, the detector channel is disabled and will not generate any further calls to the traffic controller until after the green has terminated. When the stop bar detection loop is disabled, the green phase can only be extended by vehicles detected by the advance detection loop. NOTE: The dis connect timer will always time an initial gap each ti me that the p hase tur ns gree n.

If Option 12.1 is OFF, the channel will generate an output for the specified extension time at the start of each green phase.

2.17 OPTION 13: TRUE PRESENCE

TRUE PRESENCE can be set from 13.0 to 13.5 by press ing the  (UP) or  (DOWN) pushbutton. When Option 13 is OFF (13.0), the detector operates in the normal PRESENCE mode. When this option is set to 13.1 thro ugh

13.5, TRUE PRESENCE is ON. W hen Option 13 is ON, TRUE PRESENCE will hold the Call as long as the vehicle is present and power is not removed or the detector reset. TRUE PRESENCE time applies only for normal size automobiles and trucks and for normal size loops (approximately 12 ft

2.18 OPTION 14: SENSITIVITY BOOST

SENSITIVITY BOOST can be set from 14.0 to 14.4 by pressing the  (UP) or  (DOWN ) pus hbut ton. When Option 14 is set to 14.0, SENSITIVITY BOOST is turned O FF. When this option is set to 14.1 through 14.4, SENSITIVITY BOOST is ON. SENSITIVITY BOOST increases the sensitivity of the detector once it has detected an object. When setting this option, the digit to the right of the dec imal point indicates the number o f sensitivity levels that the sensitivity will increase after a detection has occurred.

NOTE: The maximum sensitivity level that can be achieved with or without b oost is sensitivity level 9. If a detector channel is set to sensitivity level 9, the maximum boos t setting attainable is 14.0, i.e. no boost. If a detector channel is set to sens itiv ity le vel 8, the m aximum boos t s etting at tainable is 14.1, i.e. one (1) level of boost. If a detector channel is set to sensitivity level 7, the maximum boost setting attainable is 14.2, i.e . two (2) levels of boost. If a detector channel is set to sensitivity level 6, the maximum boost setting attainable is 14.3, i.e. thr ee (3) levels of boost. If a detector channel is set to sensitivity level 5, 4, 3, 2, or 1, the maximum boost setting attainable is 14.4, i.e. four (4) levels of boost.

loop inductance is withi n the acceptable range. If any type of loop failure occurs in one (or more) loop(s) in a group of two or more loops wired in parallel, the detector will not respond with a Fail-Safe output following any type of reset. It is essential that multiple loops wired to a common detector channel always be wired in series to ensure Fail-Safe operation under all circumstances. At the time of a loop failure, the

channel’s LED will begin to flash at a rate of three flashes per second. The LED will continue this display pattern until the channel is manually reset or power is removed. If the loop self-he als, the LOO P FAIL mess age on the LCD will extinguish and the channel will re sume operation in a normal manner; exce pt the LED will continue t he three flashes per second display pattern, thus providing an alert that a prior Loop Fail condition has occurred. Each loop failure for the channel is counted and accumulated into the Loop Fail Memory. The total number of loop failures written into the Loop Fail Memory (since the last power interruption or manual reset) is viewed by stepping through the channel’s functions in Program Mode until the LOO P FAIL message is displayed.

Section 5 Installation and Set-Up

The dete ctor has no DIP switches or jumpers to configure. C onnect the detector to an appropriately wired harness and apply power. If the detector is not new from the factory, it may be advantageous to reset the detect or back to the factory defaults to a void having to check every setting for each channel. To reset the detector to factory defaul t, pres s and ho ld all fo ur pus hbutto n switc hes simu ltaneo usly fo r five s econds . When a ll four b uttons are depressed, the display will start count ing d own fro m five (5). W hen the countdown reaches zero (0), releasing the pushbuttons will reload the factory defaults and reset both channels.

All operating parameters can be adjusted from the front panel. The detector continues to operate normally while it is in the P rogram Mode. The value currently displayed is always the actual value bei ng used. Examp le: If you are changing the delay time, the time displayed at the instant that a vehicle entere d the detection zone for that channel would be the value used for the delay timer.

Pressing the FUNC button enters t he Progra m Mode. The FUNC button has a n auto repeat function. This a llows quick navigation to the desired parameter. T he FUNC button only moves forward through all of the parameters. There is no way to move backwards through the parameters.

While viewing any parameter, pressing t he CHAN button will display the same para meter for the next channel. The currently selected channel is indicated at the bottom of the LCD. Pressing and holding the CHAN button for one seco nd w ill exit the Program Mode and return to the Normal Mode.

5.3 LOOP FAIL INDICATIONS

If the to tal induc tanc e of a c han nel’s loop inp ut net work goes out o f the range specified for the detector, or rapidly c hanges by more than ±25%, the channel will enter the Fail-Safe mode and LOOP FAIL will be displayed on the LCD. The type of loop failure wi ll a ls o be d isp la ye d a s L lo (for -25% change or shorted loop cond itions) or L hi (for +25% change or open loop conditions). This will cont inue as long as the loop fault exists. Fail-Safe mode generates a continuous call in Presence Mode and in Pulse Mode. At the ti me of a loop failure, the channel’s LED will begin to flash at a rate of t hree flashes per second. The LED will continue this disp lay pattern until the channel is manually reset or power is removed.

pattern, thus, providing an alert that a prior Loop Fail condition has occurred. Each loop failure is counted and accumulated into the Loop Fail Memory. The total number of loop failures for the channe l is written into the Loop Fa il Memory (since the last pow er interruption or manual reset) and can be seen by stepping through the channel’s functions in P r ogram Mo de to the LOOP FAIL display.

This is a useful tool to identify intermittent loop prob lems. If the count is extremely high for the pe riod of time observed, the problem is very likely a loose connect ion (check for loose co nnections at the terminal strip and bad

splice s in t he fie ld). The Loop Fail Count is reset when power is removed from the detector. This prevents the Loop Failure Count from moving to another loop, if the detector is moved to a new location.

To view the Loop Fail Count, repeatedly press the FUNC button until the LOOP FAIL display is s hown. The Loop Fail Co un t d is p lay is aft er the OP TI ON d is pla ys . P re ss in g th e  (UP) or  (DOWN) button while the Loop Fail Count is displayed will reset the count to zero.

NOTE: The Loop Fail Count is not r eset when the s etting of Option 4 (Noise Filter Disable) is changed or when the channel’s sensitivity or frequency is changed. The prior Loop Fail indication will continue until the Loop Fail Count is reset to zero.

5.4 SETTING SENSITIVITY USING THE BARGRAPH

The bargraph is a graphical representation of the relative change of inductance as seen by the channel. It automatically takes into account the channel’s sensitivity setting, loop geometry, configuration, lead-in length, etc. The first bar segment rep resents the minimum ind uctance cha nge (s et by t he sens itivi ty leve l) nec essar y for the channe l to o utput a cal l. Eac h addi tiona l se gment t o the r ight repre sents the induct ance c hange in exc ess o f the next se nsitivit y thresho l d . Us ually, the la r ge r t he ve h icle, the g re a te r t he -∆L/L; thus, more and more segments are displayed. The bargraph can be used as a precise indicator to select the proper sensitivity level.

The bargraph below shows the deflection (3 segments) o f a vehicle with Sensitivity set to Level 4 . The ve h ic le in the loop zone is causing a change of inductance greater than 0.32% -∆L/L or Sensitivity Level 2.

The bargraph, below, has the same vehicle in the loop zone causing the same inductance change as above. Since the sensitivity setting was increas ed to Level 7, six segments are now displayed. If the bargraph displays 5 or 6 segments for a vehicle in the loop and motorcycles are not a concern, the sensitivity has been set to the proper

range.

Section 7 Theory of Operation

The Reno A & E Model S-1300 detector digita lly me as ur es cha n ges in t he re so na nt fre q uenc y o f tw o ind ep end e nt loop circuits to determine if a vehicle has entered the detection zone. The Model S-1300 Series detector applies an excitation voltage to each loop c ircuit resulting in the loops oscillat ing at their re sonant freque ncy. T he curr ent flow in the loop wire creates magnetic fields around the loop wire. When a vehicle passes over the loop area, the conductive metal of the vehicle causes a loading of the loop’s magnetic fields. The loading decreases the loop inductance, which causes the resonant frequency to increase. By continuously sampling the loop’s resonant frequency, the magnitude and rate of change can be determined. If the frequency change exceeds a selectable thres hold (se t b y the s ens it ivit y se tt ings) , t he c han nel w il l act iva te a n out pu t sig na l. I f the r ate of c han ge is slo w, typica l of e nv iro nme nta l dr ift, the cha nne l wi ll c ont inuo us ly t rack and co mpens ate fo r t he c hange . T he Mo de l S1300 detector also monitors the loop frequency for out o f range conditio ns such as an open o r shorte d loop circuit.

The Model S-1300 detector is a scanning dete ctor. The scanning method sequentially t urns each channel’s loop oscillators on and off. Each channel’s os cillator circuit supplies the e xcitation voltage that is coupled to the loop circu it by a loo p isolatio n transfo rmer. The channel’ s oscilla tor circu it supplie s the exci tation vo ltage that is coupled to the loop circuit by a loop isolation transformer. The tra nsformer pro vides high co mmon mode isolation between the loop and detector electronics , which allows the channel to o perate on poor quality loops including a single short to ground. The transformer also limits the a mount of static energy (lightning) that ca n transfer to the detector electronics. A spark gap transient suppression device is connected acros s the loop inputs co nnected to the isolation transformer. This device diss ipates static charges before they reach the tran sformer. A network of four capacitors is connected to the detector side of t he isolation transformer. Three of the capacitors can be switched in or out of the oscillator circuit to shift the frequency of the loop oscillator circuit thus providing frequency separation between adjacent loops. The t hree switchable capacitors are electronically switched using FETs and are select ed when p rogram ming parameter values with the front panel pushbutto n switches.

The outputs from the two loop oscillators are tied together and fed into a common sq uaring circuit. This is possible since the detector is a scanning detector that allows only a single loop oscillator to be operating at a ny given time. The sine wave from the loop oscillator circuit is squared to provide a precise zero crossing signal for the input to the microcontroller. Th is sign al is c alled the loo p samp le. T he loop samp le is a n inte gral n umber of co mplete oscillations from the loop oscillator circuit. The number of loop oscillations counted is a function of the selected sensit iv it y se tt in g fo r the c ha nne l. The req u ired number of loop oscillations needed for a loop sample increases as the sensitivity setting is increased. The microcontroller uses the period of the loop sample for accumulating highspeed (32 MHz) crystal clock pulses generated by the microcontroller’s internal high-speed crystal oscillator. The number of crystal clock pulses accumulated during co nsecutive loop samples is compared to the internal reference number of crystal clock pulses stored in the microcontroller’s memory.

When a vehicle enters the loop zone the loop inductance decreases. This decrease in loop inductance causes an increase in the loop oscillator frequency. In turn, an increase in loop oscillator frequency results in a decrease o f the time period for the loop sample. Hence, when a vehicle enters the loop zone the number of crysta l clock pulses accumulated during a loop sample period decreases. By comparing the new count with the reference count, a percentage change can be calculated that indirectly relates to the inductance change. If the magn itude of the change exceeds a selectable threshold (sensitivity setting), the channel activates an output device. The rate of change is also monitored. Slow rates of change caused by environmental fluctuations are tracked and automatically compensated for.

The microcontroller uses the high-speed crystal clock count to calculate the loop inductance, frequency and percentage of change. If selected, the values are displayed on the seven segment LCD. The microcontroller also processes the pushbutton switch selections for the LCD and stores the operating parameters in non-volatile memory. Stored parameters are only changed wit h the front pa nel switches a nd are unaffected by los s o f power or channe l reset. The microcont roller co ntinuously p rocesses the loop samples and the detector ope ration is not affected during the operation of the switches or the LCD. (Note: When either channel’s sensitivity or frequency is change d, that channel is reset .)

In addition, the microcontroller conditions the outp uts based on Phase Green Inputs and the programmed settings of the various t imers (De lay, Ext ension, and Max Presence ) and opt ions (EO G, Optio n 3, Opt ion 4, Opt ion 5, Option 9, Option 10, and Option 12).

Check e ach c hanne l’s s tat us by mo ment ar ily pre ssi ng the C HAN butt on to s tep t hro ugh the cha nnels . Do a ny of the channels display L hi and Loop Fail ?

NO, Do any of the channels display L lo and Loop Fail?

NO, Both channels have tuned up to the existing loop / lead-in circuits and are within

acceptable limits. YES, There is probably a short in t he loop / lead-in circuit. Disconnect the loop from the

terminal bloc k in the ca binet. D oes the s t atus of that channel now show L hi Loop Fail?

NO, The problem is in the cabinet. Replace the detector w ith a known good unit. Does t he status of that channel now show L hi Loop Fail?

NO, The detector is not the problem. Measure the resistance from each loop terminal to the pin in the connector. It s hould read less than 0.5 Ohms for both terminals. Check all wiring from terminal block to the connector in the harness. Also, check that the connector itself is not defective.

YES, The replaced unit was defective.

YES, The problem is in the field, either a short in the loop / lead-in circuit or

insufficient inductance in the loop / lead-in circuit. Leave the loop disconnected in the cabinet. Connect a MegOhm meter set to 500 volts to one of the loop wires and earth g round. Is the resistance greater than 50 megOhms?

NO, There is leakage to earth ground in the loop / lead-in circuit. Disconnect the loop fro m the lead-in cable as close as possible to where the loop enters the pavement. Measure the resistance between one of the loop wires and earth ground. Is the resistance greater than 50 megOhms?

NO, The loop is damaged. Replace the loop. YES, The lead-in cable is defective. Replace lead-in cable.

YES, The problem is insufficie nt inductance in the loop / lead-in circuit.

This i ndicates to o few turns in the loop itself or s ome of the turns are shorted to each other. In either case, the loop must be replaced to correct the problem.

YES, If a cha nne l is not be ing us ed, you wil l se e this dis pla y if the cha nne l has not be en tu rne d of f. Is there a loop connected to this channel?

NO, Chan ge the channel’s sensitivity setting to OFF and the Loop Fail message will no longer be displayed for the channel.

YES, The replaced unit was defective.

YES, The open or high resistance is in the field. With the loop still disconnected,

measure the resistance of the loop / lead-in circuit (from one lead o f the loop to the other). Is the resistance below five O hms?

NO, Measure the resistance as close as possible to where the loop enters the pavement. Is the resistance below two O hms?

NO, The loop is probably damaged. Replace the loop. YES, The lead-in cable is defective. Check all splices. Replace

the lead-in cable if necessary.

YES, The problem is probably excessive inductance. Are there several loops connected in series for the loop / lead-in circuit?

889-1908-00 Model S-1300 Operations Manual Rev Apr 2020 Page 23 of 25

Page 30

NO, This is typica lly caused by having too many turns in a large loop. Replace the loop with one that has an inductance of less than 2000 microhenries.

YES, If possible, connecting each loop to its own c hannel is preferred. Or try a parallel wiring arrange ment for the loops if separate detection channels are not possible.

8.4 TROUBLESHOOTING INTERMITT EN T LOO P FAIL PROBLEMS

Have you been able to see the channel display while the loop failure was occurring?

NO, Loop Fail problems tend to be bad splices in the loop / le ad-in circuit, shorts in the loop / lead-in circuit, shorts to earth ground in the loop / le ad-in circuit, or loose co nnections or bad s older joints in the signal cabinet. If you have any splices that are not soldered and sealed with an adhesive heat shrink or epoxy resin, replace the splice with one that is. Using a MegOhm meter, measure the resistance from one of the loop wires to earth ground. It should be greater t han 50 megOhms. I nspect the loop. Look for exposed wires or debris pressed into the saw cut. Tighten all screw terminals in the signal cabinet that the loop circuit uses. Check solder joints in the loop circuit, especially on the harness itself. Disconnect and reconnect any connector used in the loop circuit and check for loose pins and sockets in these c onnect ors. If your ca binet ha s ligh tning or surge s uppres sion de vices on the lo op inp uts in the cabinet, remove or replace them. Check for places in the field where the loop wire or lead-in cable ma y be pinched or chaffed. Look for wires pinched under j unction box covers and w here the wire enters a conduit, especially where the loop wire leaves the saw cut and enters a conduit. After checking all of the above items, you could swap out the detector but this type of failure is rarely ever related to the detector.

YES, Did t he display show L h i?

NO, The display must have bee n L lo then. This indica tes an intermittent shorted loop or -

25% inductance change. Using a Me gO hm meter, measure the resistance from one of the loop wires to earth ground. It should be greater than 50 megOhms. Inspect the loop. Look for exposed wires or debris pressed into the saw cut. Check for places in the field where the loop wire or lead-in cable may be pinched or chaffed. Look for wires pinc hed under junction bo x covers and where the wire enters a conduit, especially where the loop wire leaves the saw cut and enters a conduit. If y our cab inet has lig htning or sur ge supp ressi on dev ices on the

loop inputs in the cabinet, remove or replace them. YES, This indicates an intermittent open loop or +25% inductance change. If you have any

splices that are not soldered and sealed with an adhesive heat shrink or epoxy resin, replace the splice wit h one that is. Tig hten all screw te rminals in the signa l cabinet that the loop circuit uses. Check solder joints in the loop circuit, especially on the harness itself. Disconnect and reconnect any connector used in the loop c ircuit and check for loose pins and sockets in these connectors.

8.5 TROUBLESHOOTING INTERMITTENT DETECTOR LOCK-UPS

Have you been able to see the channel display while the loop was locked up?

NO, See Troubleshooting Intermittent Loop Fail Problems and follow the path for unable to see the channel display while the loop failure was occurring.

YES, Were more than t wo segments lit in the ba rgraph on the LCD?

NO, Problems of this type tend to be difficult to isolate due to the many pos sible causes and

the sho rt du rat io n o f t he s y mpt o m ( us ual ly le ss t han 30 minutes). If t he problem occurs more frequently in the morning or when raining, s uspect a short to ea rth ground in t he loop / lead-in circuit. This can usually be verified by testing with a MegOhm meter but not always. Vibration can also be a possible cause. Loop w ires may be moving slightly in a conduit due to vibrations from truck traffic. Utility lids in the street near the loop may also be a source of problems. Ensure that lids near a loop are bolted down so that they cannot move. Check that each set of loop wires is twisted to gether in each pull box and that lengths are not excessive. And also see loop failure that displays L lo on the LCD.

YES, See Troubleshooting Intermitte nt Loop Fa il Proble ms and follow the path for a loop failure that displays L lo o n the LCD.

the Delay function now time?

NO, Replace the detector and ensure t hat there is delay time programmed. Does the new channel time the Delay function correctly ?

NO, The problem is in the wiring from the phase green to the wiring harness or the connector itself. The Phase Green Input lead is shorted to ground somewhere.

YES, The channel has a bad Phase Green Input circuit.

YES, The point you are using to get phase green is always at a high pote ntial

(greater than 89 VAC) or the phas e act ually is green all of the time.

YES, Reme mber that t he d e lay funct i o n is o n ly availa b le w hen the Pha s e Gr e e n I nput is be lo w 89 V AC . If you w ant t he delay function available all of the time, disconnect the Phase Green Input. If you are aware of this and the delay function still does not function at the correct times then the Phase Green Input, is connected to the wrong p hase green. Connect the Phase Green Input to an appropriate point.

8.7 THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT LOOPS

Always use a wire with cross-linked Polyet hylene insu lation (insulation type XLPE) for loo p wire. Typical sensing height is ⅔ of the shortest leg of a loop. Therefore, a 6΄ x 6΄ loop will have a detection height of 4΄. The inductance of a conventional four-sided loop can be estimated using the formula: L = P x (T2 + T) / 4 Where: L = Loop Inductance in microhenries

P = Loop Perimeter in feet T = Number of Turns of Wire.

Therefore, a 6΄ by 6΄ loop with 3 turns would have an inductance of:

L = (6 + 6 + 6 + 6) x (32 + 3) / 4 L = 24 x (9 + 3) / 4 L = 24 x 12 / 4 L = 24 x 3

L = 72 microhenries. The inductance of a QuadrupoleTM loop can be estimated using the formula: L = [P x (T2 + T) / 4] + [CL x (T2 + T) / 4] Where: L = Loop Inductance in microhenries

P = Loop Perimeter in feet T = Number of Turns of Wire CL = Length of Center Leg in feet.

Therefore, a 6΄ by 50΄ loop with a 2-4-2 config uration w ould have an induct ance of:

L = [(6 + 50 + 6 + 50) x (22 + 2) / 4] + [50 x (42 + 4) / 4]

L = [112 x (4 + 2) / 4] + [50 x (16 + 4) / 4]

L = (112 x 6 / 4) + (50 x 20 / 4)

L = (112 x 1.5) + (50 x 5)

L = 168 + 250

L = 418 micr ohenries. Loop Feeder cable typically adds 0.22 microhenrie s of inductance per foot of cable. Total inductance of loops connected in series: L Total inductance of loops connected in parallel: L

= L1 + L2 + L3 + . . . + LN.

TOTAL

= 1 / [ (1 / L1) + (1 / L2) + (1 / L3) + . . . + (1 / LN) ].
