Page 12 Metor 900M P/N 101023281 Installation and Operating Manual 3 Rev. 0.5 INSTALLATION When planning the installation of a WTMD there are a few important things that should be considered. The optimum operation of the WTMD as well as maximum traffic flow at the security checkpoint can be ensured only when these factors have been taken into account. 3.
P/N 101023281 Rev. 0.5 Page 13 Metor 900M Installation and Operating Manual Moving Metal Moving metal objects Large moving metal objects outside the WTMD should be kept at least 0.5 - 2 m (20 - 79 in) away from the WTMD to avoid false alarms. The required distance between the moving metal and the WTMD varies depending on the size of the metal object and the sensitivity setting of the WTMD.
Page 14 Metor 900M P/N 101023281 Installation and Operating Manual 3.3 Rev. 0.5 Side-by-Side Operation Side-by-side operation means that two or more Walk Through Metal Detectors operate close to each other. When operated side-by-side, WTMDs may interfere with each other to some extent. The level of interference depends on the distance between the units, their operating frequencies and selected detection sensitivity.

P/N 101023281 Rev. 0.5 Metor 900M Page 33 Installation and Operating Manual APPENDIX A: Definition of Terms Some special terms used in this manual are explained below. WTMD - Walk Through Metal Detector Sensitivity - Parameter for defining the size of the metal items that will generate an alarm. When sensitivity is increased smaller metal items will be detected. Discrimination - The WTMD’s ability to differentiate harmless items from weapons.
Page 34 Metor 900M P/N 101023281 Installation and Operating Manual Rev. 0.5 Detection uniformity - The ability of a WTMD to maintain uniform sensitivity throughout the whole detection area regardless of the shape and orientation of the metal item. Detection uniformity directly affects the discrimination capability of a WTMD. The sensitivity of a WTMD is usually set according to the weakest position of the detection area.
