T.Rex Request to Exit Detector
The smart exit detector
The T.Rex creates a new standard and provides a complete solution to exit
detection and door surveillance for access control applications. Outstanding
innovations such as X-Y Targeting™ and Digital Signal Processing (DSP)
implementation make the T.Rex the fastest and most reliable exit detector on
the market.
X-Y Targeting targets a specific area of detection
While some exit detectors on the market offer adjustments of the detection
pattern with masking or horizontal alignment, the T.Rex is the first detector
to offer vertical detection targeting using two adjustable louvers located
in the detection chamber. The installer "trims" the
detection area by adjusting these louvers from 90° down to 5°.
Horizontal adjustment is provided by rotation of the lens.
Added security
These two adjustments allow the installer to mount the detector so that the
detection area will not "hit" the floor along the door jamb. This defeats attempts
to circumvent door supervision by sliding objects underneath the door. Such
objects would be detected by sensors mounted in a traditional way.
DSP prevents "Door Forced Open" alarms
Kantech's T.Rex utilizes infrared detection coupled with DSP sampling specifically
designed for access control applications. There is a substantial operational
difference between T.Rex and a common infrared intrusion motion detector.
A typical intrusion detector operates at low sensitivity levels and is looking for the positive presence of a human. An exit detector such as T.Rex, however, must detect the extremely fast movement of a hand (the target) about to push the door or turn the door handle. A failure to detect this movement prior to an exit application will actually cause a "Door Forced Open" alarm.
