1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Garrett Magnascanner CS 5000 is a high-quality microprocessor-based walk-
through metal detector that provides superior metal discrimination and detection. It fea-
tures a DSP(Digital Signal Processor) that automatically suppresses or eliminates elec-
trical interference associated with x-ray devices, video monitors and communications
equipment, helping to reduce the likelihood of nuisance alarms and ultimately improving
traffic throughput. The Magnascanner CS 5000 offers a diverse range of programs to
meet your security needs. The detector is highly portable and can be operated by
remote console or a battery pack as needed.
A bright, highly visible LED (Light Emitting Diode) bar graph and lights indicating ready
and alarm conditions make it easy for the operator to interpret operating information.
Pacing lights located on side panels of the entrance side indicate whether or not a
patron may enter the walk-through. Pinpoint lights, located on the side panels of the
exit side, comprise 11 distinct pinpoint arrays that help the operator identify the precise
location of a metal object whether it is on the left, right or in the center of the body, or
from head to toe.
The LCD, located in the overhead panel and backlit for easy viewing, reports calibration
and operational information, including program and base sensitivity settings, operator
functions and fault indications. The LCD also provides information on instructions and
control functions, as well as a handy traffic count.
A convenient dual access code system protects calibration settings and eliminates the
need for keys to storage compartments. Calibration settings are further protected by a
non-resettable sequence code that enables the supervisor to monitor any changes
successful or otherwise that are made to the set up or program and base sensitivity.
In addition, a tamper alarm reports any unauthorized access attempts. An automatic
self test begins each time the OPERATE touchpad is pressed. In addition, fail safe,
self-testing circuitry provides information on operational interferences.
Other features of the Magnascanner MS 5000 include superior sensitivity, stability and
noise rejection. All of the electronics are built into the overhead panel, thereby eliminat-
ing the problems often associated with a cable-connected console.

2. CONTROLS & MODULES
2.1. DISPLAY PANEL
2.1.1. LED BAR GRAPH
This LED display at the top of the Control Panel indicates the detection intensity which
is based on the amount and composition of metallic objects passing through the unit.
2.1.2. READY LIGHT
This green light appears when full power has been turned on and the unit is ready to
operate. The light will also indicate when an individual inspection has been completed
by the unit and it is ready to accept the next person. Operators should make certain the
green light is visible before any individual is permitted to pass through the detector.
2.1.3. LCD PANEL
Large alpha/numeric LCD below the Bar Graph reports all operating, setup and diag-
nostic information of the unit. Because the unit is designed to be user-friendly, all reg-
ulation and control functions are self-prompting with necessary commands shown on
the LCD display.
2.1.4. ALARM LIGHT
This red light appears when the unit detects a targeted amount of metal on an individ-
ual, according to specifications of the Program and Sensitivity levels that have been
selected. Operators should be instructed to respond to all alarms. For any detector to
be effective in a security system it is absolutely necessary that the cause of EVERY
ALARM be determined.

2.2. TOUCHPADS
Eight touchpads on the overhead Control Panel perform all control functions:
2.2.1. STANDBY
When this touchpad is pressed, the unit goes into a low power mode, ready to be
returned to full operation when the OPERATE pad is touched. When STANDBY is dis-
played on the LCD, the green READY light is not visible and no processing can take
place in the unit. It is important to remember that the Power Switch located on the
Battery Back-up Module (See Page 42) should be set to its OFF position anytime the
system is being stored and anytime the system is not in use and is not connected to
AC power for more than 24 hours.
2.2.2. OPERATE
Whenever this touchpad is pressed, the Magnascanner CS 5000 activates all circuits,
initiates a self-diagnosis program and places the unit in the Operate Mode within fifteen
(15) seconds. This diagnostic program for instant fault detection can be activated at any
time by touching this OPERATE pad. If any faults are ever found, they will be immedi-
ately reported on the LCD display. (See Page 10.)
2.2.3. COUNTER
When this touchpad is pressed, the traffic count is displayed on the LCD display.
Pressing and holding this touchpad for ten (10) seconds causes the counter to return to
zero (0). Whenever the LCD is displaying information other than the current traffic
count, pressing this touchpad will cause the count to appear along with the Sequence
Number of changes that have been made to Program/Sensitivity settings. CT (Number)
and SEQ (Number) will appear. Each time the Program/Sensitivity Mode is accessed,
the Sequence Code that appears on the LCD will be advanced one number. It is rec-
ommended that a written notation be made on the Operations Worksheet (see
Page 34) whenever this code is accessed, explaining reasons for the access. If the
ACCESS touchpad has been pressed and an improper access code has been entered,
a * will appear before the sequence number (SEQ *37). This indicates that an unsuc-
cessful (unauthorized) attempt has been made to gain access to the
Program/Sensitivity setting.

2.2.4. VOLUME
When this touchpad is pressed, the volume level of the unit s audible alarm will be
shown on the LCD display and the actual volume of the alarm will be heard. The +and
-touchpads can be used by operators to raise or lower the volume. They should then
press OPERATE to return to the operate mode.
2.2.5. + AND -
These touchpads will be used to increase or decrease various numerical settings and
for certain On/Off functions.
2.2.6. PROGRAM
When this touchpad is pressed, the settings for Program and Sensitivity will appear on
the LCD display.
2.2.7. ACCESS
The ACCESS touchpad will be used only by supervisory management personnel. It
permits changing the Program and Sensitivity codes and also is used to control such
functions as synchronization of multiple units, pulse frequency, tone, etc. (See Page
12). The unit further protects security of control settings by maintaining a non-resettable
sequence code that indicates any attempt at seeking access to the settings. When this
touchpad is pressed, audio of the system will chirp and ENTER CODE will be dis-
played on the LCD, prompting the operator to enter an access code. If no attempt is
made to enter a code, the unit will continue chirping for ten (10) seconds and return to
Operate Mode. If the operator enters an incorrect code, audio will sound a Tamper
Alarm and ACCESS DEN ED will appear on the LCD for five (5) seconds. An asterisk
(*) will appear on the Sequence Counter indicating that an unsuccessful attempt has
been made to access the Installation or Program/Sensitivity Modes of the unit.
Operators should never touch this control.
If an operator should inadvertently press the ACCESS touchpad, no further action
should be taken and the unit will return automatically to the Operate Mode in about ten
(10) seconds.
Special Note
The above touchpad functions will be available to operators of the detector at all times.
Additional functions such as program and sensitivity settings and other adjustments neces-
sary only at installation time may be selected by pressing the ACCESS touchpad and enter-
ing a security code.

This switch need be placed in the OFF position only during storage or when the unit is
not being used and is not connected to AC power for more than 24 hours. See Page 42
for installation instructions.
3. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
3.1. SITE SELECTION
The Garrett Magnascanner CS 5000 should be located on a level, stable floor with no
large metal items within three (3) feet. Any nearby large metallic object can interfere
with operation of the detector. Moving metallic objects, such as an escalator or revolv-
ing door, close to the detector can cause false alarms. Such alarms can also be caused
by electrical interference from radio telephones, television monitors, powerful electronic
motors and transformers, power cables and control circuits.
Garrett s special built-in circuitry is designed to suppress much of this electronic noise,
especially X-ray monitor horizontal synchronization signals and closed circuit television.
Multiple frequencies permit several Magnascanner units to operate simultaneously, in
close proximity.
For information concerning the operation of multiple units, see Page 38.
The site for a Magnascanner CS 5000 should be selected with requirements for its
pedestrian traffic and use in mind; i.e. space for waiting lines, operators and areas for
hand-scanning. Although the detector is effective with traffic moving in either direction,
best results are obtained when traffic enters from the side opposite to the control touch-
pads and LCD display.
Locate the archway where it will not be subject to rain, mist or condensation. Protect
the power cable from pedestrian as well as vehicular traffic.
