1AVDB THEORY OF OPERATIONThe AVDB uses digital signal processing techniques to assess parameters inherent to inductive ground loops in order to evaluate loop status and signal vehicle detection. As a loop operator, this technology affords you the benet of understanding the quality of your loop in real-time with advanced foresight and warning of deteriorating conditions. This allows preventative measures to be taken to avoid down time and situations in which your drive-thru technologies and services are hindered or incapacitated due to a failed or failing loop. While these events are unlikely, the advanced warning system of the AVDB offers peace of mind that drive-thru operations will continue to be uninterrupted.Through continuous measurement of the inductive ground loop, the AVDB determines the inherent electrical characteristics of the loop which include: loop condition, connection quality, and the inductance of the loop. These three parameters are evaluated to determine the Loop Status as seen in Figure 4, page 6. In the case of a deteriorating loop, the AVDB offers insight into the underlying cause and the course of action to help troubleshoot your issue.The vehicle detection portion of the AVDB operates through analysis of loop response to a stimulus provided by the detector, which characterizes the inductance of a loop. The presence of a vehicle over the loop electromagnetically interacts with the loop causing a change in inductance. The AVDB monitors these small inductance changes in order to signal vehicle detection.LOOP FAILURE AND INTERFERENCEInductive ground loops may eventually fail. The AVDB can remove the surprise of failure from operation and allows you to prepare for such an event well in advance. Loop failure is the result of damage to the loop which can include, but is not limited to: damage to area surrounding loop, severed loop or lead in wires, or insulation damage as a result of aging and other environmental factors. In addition, deteriorating connections between the loop and the AVDB can cause detection failure even though the loop itself is in good condition.The AVDB is essentially a large metal detector. Do not install the loop over any metallic object, surface, or area. This includes installing the loop over rebar. Failure to adhere to this installation recommendation will result in unexpected loop behavior.DRAFT
2INSTALLATIONIf you’re replacing an existing board, begin at Step 1. If no previous ADVB board exists, begin at Step 6.1.  When handling the AVDB, wear an anti-static wrist strap to avoid electrical damage to the board.2.  Disconnect the drive-thru audio or timer system power adapter from its electrical outlet.3.  Disconnect the loop cable from TB1 on the existing board to be replaced.4.  Disconnect interconnect cable from its connector (P1) on the base station or control unit circuit board. Note the connector and its location.5.  Remove the existing board by lifting it off the plastic standoffs that hold it in place.6.  Connect the loop cable to TB1 at the upper left corner of the AVDB. See Figure 1, above.7.  Position the AVDB over the three plastic standoffs on the base station or control unit circuit board and press it rmly until the standoffs snap through the holes on the AVDB. See Figure 1 for hole locations.8.  Connect the AVDB interconnect cable to P1, at the lower right corner of the AVDB. See Figure 1. Be certain the plastic catches on the cable connector are aligned with the plastic catches on the P1 connector. The color-coded connector wires must also match the pin positions shown on Figure 1.9.  Connect the other end of the interconnect cable to the circuit board in the base station or control unit per installation instructions from the drive-thru audio or timer system.  hIf the installation instructions are not available, visit hme.com to obtain the manual PDF le or call HME at 1-800-848-4468.10. Reconnect the drive-thru or timer system power adapter to its electrical outlet. 11.  During boot up, “b” (for ‘booting’) will display for a few seconds. The Display on the AVDB should then read “0”, indicating that the loop is signaling properly. If the Display does not read “0”, be certain all connections are tight. If it still does not indicate “0”, see Figure 3, page 6.12. Drive a car onto the loop. The Dot on the Display should illuminate when a car is present over the loop.P1 Pins:3 (black) - Output/Sig2 (red) - +12VDC1 (shield) - GNDHoles for plastic standoffsLoop connector (TB1)Display (reading “0”) Display DotFigure 1.

3REGULATORY LABEL PLACEMENTThe Regulatory Label included in the installation package must be placed on the side of either the Base Station or TSP (depending upon which of the two the ADVB board is installed).TSP Console*Base Station Console**The label may be placed on either side of the console (top, middle or bottom).Figure 2. Regulatory Label PlacementDRAFT
4DIP SWITCH SETTINGSBefore installing the AVDB, the following six functions can be set by switching/moving the switches as indicated below. Refer to Figure 3, below.* = factory settingFigure 3.

Do not change.DRAFT
5TROUBLESHOOTINGRelease Sensitivity hSet to Low if multiple detections or dropouts occur frequently at Normal. hSet to High or Extra High to compensate for improperly positioned loops where run-ons occur. hSet as low as practical. Check for run-ons or dropouts and set for best operation.RESET PROCEDUREIf the detector is stuck indicating a vehicle present continuously or is otherwise unresponsive, follow the reset steps below:With no vehicle present over the vehicle detector loop: hPress and hold the Reset switch in the base station or timer for 1 second and then release. The ADVB display will go blank for a few seconds and then should show “b” for a second or two. hReset is complete when the ADVB display shows a code other than “b” or “F”.DETECTOR FUNCTIONTo verify proper detector board function, disconnect one of the wires to the detector loop and verify that the board display changes to “d”. Then reconnect the wire and the display should change back to one of the normal codes. If the display was originally showing “d”, short the two loop terminals and watch for the display to change to “C”.DRAFT
