hidden on the body. When the passengers pass through the device, if
they carried metals more than preset parameters value, the device
would immediately alarms, and display alarm location, let the security
guard find the people with the prohibited metal articles timely.

Installation Environment
1. Stationary Metallic Items
When installing walk through metal detector, it should stay away from
the stationary or fixed bulk metal items 50cm; otherwise it will affect the
sensitivity, causing false alarm. Metal items such as: aluminum alloy /
stainless steel doors and windows, etc.
2. Movable Metallic Items
The big metal items can be moved, should stay away from the device
about 2 meters to avoid false alarm.
3. Floor Vibration
The floor should be flat and fixed, to avoid false alarm after installation by
the movement of people walking or moving and shaking of metal
objects.
4. Electromagnetic Radiation And Electromagnetic Interference
Because the device uses bilateral transceiver technology, therefore, any
electromagnetic interference sources and electromagnetic radiation
source is not allowed to close the device, the recommended distance is
1 meters. The parameters of the distance are determined by the

4 ZK-D2180S User Manual
installation environment, and different installation environments with
different parameters.
The electromagnetic interference sources and electromagnetic radiation
sources as following:
Electrical Control Box, Radio Equipment, Interphone, High Power Motor,
Power Transformer, Ac Power Lines, Thyristor Control Circuit (High Power
Switching Power Supply, Inverter Welder), Engine, Motor etc.
5. Side-By-Side Using
When installing the devices side by side, the distance between two walk
through metal detectors cannot be less than 50cm and the device work
frequency must be different. Specific distance parameters according to
the actual environment and the selection of the work frequency to
adjust.

Detection Zones
A. LCD Display: Display pass count, alarm count, sensitivity settings and
other information
B. Alarm zones display
There are Eighteen unique sets of precise
positioning LED evenly distribution on the door
panels, means 18 detection zones (from bottom
to top is zone 1-3, zone 4-6,zone 7-9, zone 10-12,

Detection Adjustment
1. The device must be in a stable status to achieve the best detection
effect (refer to the "Installation Environment"), to check whether the
device in a stable status, the steps as follows:
a. The device is not shaking after power ON for 1 minute.
b. The device would not alarm when the tester did not carry any
metal items walk through the detector.
2. Excluding small portable metal objects such as rings, key, belt
buckle, shoes and so on, according to the following steps to adjust:
a. Choose a small metal as the sample, such as keys.
b. Increasing the sensitivity, so that when the tester carry the
sample and pass through the device, the detector would
alarms.
c. Decreasing the sensitivity a little, carry the sample pass through
the device again, if it still alarms, once again to reduce the
sensitivity, until the device not alarm when the sample passed
through.
Note: If you want to decrease the sensitivity in a certain zone, only have
to adjust the sensitivity of relative zone. After finished the above
