OpenGate System

WDS Breakdown

WDS is comprised of 3 components

1. Controller iPad - LiDAR, High Resolution Camera, and processing power, either mounted on the wall, hanging from the ceiling, or on a designated stand.

2. Operator iPad (optional) - Used by security personnel for reviewing alerts and completing IRRs, as needed. Location is based on customer needs and walk-through documentation (ref. Pre-Setup)

3. CEIA OpenGate system - Third-party metal detection poles. Reference WDS Installation section for CEIA specifications for placement and use.

WDS Installation

• Set poles 27.5 to 36 inches apart (28-32 inches preferred), with the handles pointed in the direction of the Controller iPad.

• Install batteries, and power on the OpenGate poles via the switch under the battery cover on each pole

• If poles do not boot to green lights after one minute, troubleshoot or contact Support

• Place the Controller iPad four to twelve feet from the OpenGate and four to ten feet from the ground, in a slightly diagonal position on the exit side of the poles

• Place the Operator iPad where a Security Officer will be positioned to handle alerts

• Setup Controller iPad

  • Open Operator App.

  • Align pole view to provide the highest possible accuracy percentage.

  • Zoom view to acquire the most landmarks as possible while still accommodating subjects of varying heights.

• Setup Operator App

  • Open Operator App.

  • Ensure connection to the Controller iPad.

  • Test that the Operator is receiving data when a subject passes through the OpenGate.

CEIA OpenGate Details

Screening Operation

• The Screener should be standing 5 - 8 feet away from the poles

• If the lights on the poles remain green, the individual is clear and can proceed through the checkpoint

• If the lights turn red then the individual needs to be sent for secondary screening. An auditory alarm may also be enabled.

Secondary Screening

• Choose what method is best for your organization

  • Circular carousel method

  • Separate and wand

• At secondary screening the individual should empty their pockets and their bags should be checked to determine the source of the alarm

Portability

• Both the iPads and OpenGate are highly portable, with the poles weighing approximately 25 lbs. each

• When relocating the WDS, considerations should be made concerning interference, such as moving metal and electronic noise (e.g. metal doors, wheel chairs, etc.)

(Each pole is approx. 25 lbs, +5 per battery inserted)
