Cautions
•
•
•
•
•
•
Read the operators manual completely before installing or using the walkthrough detector.
Using the detector in a manner for which it has not been specified may result in damage to
property, injury to persons, or the passing of metal targets that should be detected.
Walkthrough metal detectors should only be used as part of an overall security scheme.

The MZ software includes features to defeat tampering and unauthorised adjustment. The MZ is
compatible with all mains supplies and can be operated with or without mains power.
Physical description
The MZ detector consists of two Side panels , one a control box
Each side panel contains a set of detection coils, target / detection / exit LEDs, and traffic / entry/
pacing LEDs.
All the electronic systems including the battery and speaker are contained within the control box with
the LCD, the level LED’s , and the keypad on the front panel.
Detection indications
The detection of metal is indicated by the following:
a)
b)
c)
d)
e)
an audible alarm is sounded.
the target LEDs corresponding to the detection zone are illuminated.
the alarm LED on the control box is illuminated.
the amount of metal detected is indicated on the level LED display.
the pacing lights on the detector change from Ready (green) to Wait (red)

down once the battery is drained out .
AC supply in : glows only if AC supply is coming to detector else does not glow
Walk / stop indication : this indicates the traffic light of the detector . When detector doing
detection , turns red. Once detector is ready for next detection, turns green. One person should pas
the archway of detector at a time . If person passes through archway when traffic lights are red, the
person will go undetected .
Traffic LED’s : Green : ready for detection Red : undergoing detection .
CONTROL POINTS
Above is the snapshot of User interface viz. there are one LCD unit for displaying the information and six
touch keys for accessing and changing the DFMD settings.
Functions of touch keys:
Operate/Pause Key: This key has two functions. When pressed while in programming mode then it returns
the system to main screen. When pressed while in main screen then it pauses the DFMD and traffic LEDs will
become red and if any person enters the DFMD it starts giving distress beap.
Detection of detector only happens when traffic lights are green. Enter the archway only when traffic
lights are green .
ON/OFF Key: This key is for switching on and off the DFMD unit.
SEL/PROGRAM: When this key is pressed while system is in main screen then it goes into program mode.
After entering the authentic password it shows first main setting. Now the fuction of this key is to browse the
selected setting into more details for changing its parameters.
VOLUME Key: volume key is for displaying the alarm volume of DFMD so as to change it from +/ ‐ keys.
UP(+) Key: This key has two functions. When system is in program mode and main setting screen is displayed
then this key selects the next setting’s main screen. In all other modes this key has the function to increment
the selected parameter.
DOWN(‐) Key: This key is for decrementing the selected parameter.
Program Mode:
Program Mode is for changing the setting of DFMD.
Browsing Through Settings Main Menu
PRESS
SEL/PROGRAM
Select Password First Digit by pressing +/‐ buttons and then enter it by pressing SEL/PROGRAM button
to go to next digit of password . Similarly enter the remaining three digits of the password.
If password is correct, you will reach the settings menu for selection of various options . If any digit of
password is wrong , settings menu cannot be accessed.
If the password is authenticated ( correct ) then System will display the first setting type: Security Level
Now Press UP key to go to the next type of setting and so on
Main Menu Setting Details:
