How do I program delay or extend times on the LMD222?

This article discusses how to program delay and extend times on the LMD222.

The video below explains how to configure and troubleshoot EDI LMD Series inductive loop detectors, covering sensitivity, frequency, output modes, and open/short circuit faults.

  • Sensitivity: Set each channel to a suitable level using a standard passenger car over the loop. Confirm the detector activates reliably.
  • Frequency: Select from four frequency settings. Keep nearby loops sufficiently separated in frequency (the presenter recommends roughly 5–10% difference) to reduce cross-talk.

    Output modes:

    • Short: Presence detection up to 30 minutes.
    • Long: Presence detection up to 120 minutes.
    • Pulse: Brief output pulse of approximately 100–120 milliseconds.
    • Call: Continuous detection output, regardless of vehicle presence.
    • Off (–): Disables the detector.
  • Fault detection: An open circuit triggers a fault indication and continuous call to the controller. A short circuit also triggers a fault.
  • Fault reset: Restore the wiring, then press Mode + Frequency simultaneously or power-cycle the detector to clear the fault history.

Proper sensitivity and frequency settings help ensure reliable vehicle detection and minimize interference between adjacent loops. Understanding the output modes and fault indicators makes field troubleshooting faster.
