M-GAGE® S18M — Vehicle Detection Sensor  
Approved Applications  
The M-GAGE sensor provides a direct replacement for inductive loop systems, and needs no external frequency controller box.  
Unique mounting solutions allow an M-GAGE sensor to be replaced easily without disrupting or re-cutting the pavement.  
Car Wash Entry/Exit  
The Banner M-GAGE vehicle detection sensor will reliably  
detect vehicles in and around car wash bays. It will  
reliably detect the presence or absence of a vehicle to  
provide collision avoidance at the exit of a conveyorized  
tunnel, provide an entry or exit-door trigger, or trigger an  
undercarriage wash.  
Overhead Door  
The Banner M-GAGE sensor can be used to trigger the  
opening and closing of high-traffic internal overhead doors.  
Mounted in the floor, it will reliably detect forklifts or trucks  
as they approach the doors. Banner’s applications engineers  
are available to help determine proper sensor placement for  
specific door-trigger applications.  
Drive-Up Kiosk  
The Banner M-GAGE sensor reliably detects vehicles at  
drive-through systems or other drive-up kiosks. It will  
reliably detect a vehicle to trigger personnel that a vehicle  
is present, and to initiate a timing system.  
Loading Dock  
The Banner M-GAGE sensor provides multiple advantages  
for loading docks. It will reliably detect the presence of  
a vehicle as it backs into a dock, triggering a light on the  
interior of the building to notify the dock attendant that a  
vehicle is in position for loading/unloading. The M-GAGE  
can also be used to trigger dock/ramp leveling systems.

Procedure  
Figure 2. Below-grade installation  
Procedure  
1) Lay out 2" (or 1.5") PVC in the desired configuration. For  
the best sensor performance, the sensing location (located  
at the end of the conduit run) should be 6" below the final  
surface. Provide an access point where the PVC comes  
above grade (where the sensor and flex conduit can be fed  
in or pulled out, as required).  
1) Mount the PVC electrical conduit from the sensing point  
to the control panel. Plastic conduit should be used for at  
least the first 6.1 m (20') from the sensing point; metal or  
flexible conduit may be used the remainder of the distance.  
2) Thread the S18M sensor into the threads of the SMP2  
conduit plug.  
3) Feed the fishtape into the conduit, from the control panel  
towards the sensing point.  
4) Pull the sensor cable back through the conduit, until the  
sensor almost reaches the end of the plastic conduit. Do  
NOT pull sensor into conduit.  
2) Secure the end cap to the PVC, at the sensing location.  
3) Measure the overall length of the PVC run, from the  
sensing location to the control panel.  
5) Apply a small amount of silicone adhesive to the outside of  
the conduit at the sensing point end.  
4) Cut a section of ꢀ" flex conduit to span the total distance  
from the control panel to the sensing location.  
6) Press the conduit plug into the end of the conduit.  
5) Thread the sensor into the SMP1 conduit plug. Feed the  
sensor cable into the flex conduit, until the sensor and plug  
are snugly seated in the end of the flex conduit.  
7) After the sensor is configured (see following section), wire  
the sensor into the control device and power supply per the  
wiring diagram on page 8.  
6) Feed the flex conduit by hand, sensor-end first, into the  
PVC access point until the sensor reaches the PVC end cap.  
7) Secure the remaining flex conduit from the access point to  
the control cabinet.  
8) After the sensor is configured (see following sections), wire  
the sensor into the control device and power supply per the  
wiring diagram on page 8.

M-GAGE® S18M — Vehicle Detection Sensor  
Sensor Configuration  
For most applications, configure the M-GAGE sensor remotely, via the DPB1 Portable  
Programming Box, which provides programming access to an underground or  
otherwise inaccessible sensor. For optimum performance, the sensor must be fixtured  
so that it will not move either during or following configuration.  
Configuration using the sensor’s built-in push button is useful primarily for  
demonstration and troubleshooting purposes.

Configuration via the DPB1 Portable Programming Box  
Set Background Condition (No Vehicle Present)  
Push Button  
Wire the M-GAGE sensor to the DPB1 as shown in Figure 4. Remove all vehicles and all other  
metal objects temporarily in the sensing area, before setting the background condition.  
Configuration  
• “Click” the DPB1 TEACH push button once.  
Result  
• Sensor learns background.  
• Output indicator LED flashes  
approximately 12 times, while  
background is taught.  
• Sensor returns to RUN mode.

Set Sensitivity Level (6 sensitivity levels; level 1 least sensitive, level 6 most sensitive)  
Configuration  
• “Double-click” the DPB1 TEACH push button.  
Result  
• Output LED flashes every 2 seconds;  
sensor is at sensitivity level 1.  
(When using the DPB1, the sensor  
always reverts to sensitivity level 1.)  
• To increase the sensitivity in increments,  
“click” the push button again;  
continue until desired  
• Output LED will flash from 1 to 6  
times every 2 seconds to indicate  
sensor’s sensitivity level (e.g., twice  
to indicate level 2).  
sensitivity level is reached.  
• “Double-click” push button  
to save setting.  
• Sensor returns to RUN mode  
• Drive a vehicle past/over sensor to trip the  
output; verify Output LED comes ON as  
expected. Use a small/light vehicle to ensure  
larger vehicles will be detected later.  
• Adjust the sensitivity as needed.  
• Disconnect DPB1 and hardwire sensor to  
permanent power supply/output device (user-  
supplied). See page 8.

Excess Gain vs Sensitivity Level  
(Assumes Level 5)  
Excess Gain

Excess Gain Multiplier  
Typical Target Excess Gain Curves  
Once the sensor has been securely mounted and is configured, it is ready to operate.  
The following two example applications show typical responses for the M-GAGE  
sensor.

2
0.33  
0.4  
3
0.5  
Example 1 describes mounting the M-GAGE 1 meter above the ground to sense an  
automobile; see Figure 5. The graph in Figure 5 shows the excess gain for a typical  
car. Excess gain is a measure of the amount of “extra” signal detected by the sensor  
over and above the level needed to detect the target. This example assumes a level  
5 sensitivity threshold. The table at right compares the change in excess gain if the  
sensitivity level changes.  
4
0.66  
1.0  
5*  
6
1.3  
*Factory default setting  
If the sensitivity is at level 6, then the excess gain at a given distance would be  
1.3 times larger than for a level 5 sensitivity. Conversely, if the sensitivity threshold is  
level 1, then the excess gain would be one third as big as for level 5.  
Example 2 (see Figure 6) illustrates a typical vehicle passing over a sensor mounted  
underground. Note that excess gain is greatest when the bulk of the vehicle (the rear  
axle) is positioned directly over the sensor.
