How to connect the Loop Detector to open barrier gate via XP-M1000iv2 / XP-M1300i controller

Description:

A guide to connect the loop detector to trigger barrier gate with XP-M1000iv2 / XP-M1300i controller when car passed by.

In this section, we shall briefly explain the benefits of installing a loop detector with barrier gate. Please take note the loop detector is part of the barrier gate. Barrier gate is a quick and easy solution for vehicles to enter and exit a facility, maintaining security whilst keeping traffic flowing freely. It used to provide security to property by restricting access.

With a loop detector, the vehicle will trigger the barrier gate or access controller system when it goes over the inductive loop, which is usually hidden in the ground. It allows the gate to open when the loop send a signal after detecting a vehicle, and can also help to prevent the gates from closing when the vehicle is still near the barrier gate.
