Re: Driveway Alarm Module?

[jmjones@xxxxxxxxx]

I worked for a traffic signal company for over 20 years.  They no
longer use the inductive loops - it's all video today.

That said, the inductive loops worked pretty well, and would not pick
up any deer.  I have a couple new digital ind. loop amplifiers in my
shop, but I opted for the easy Cartell next to the drive installation.

At my home the Cartell works perfectly, only giving false trips during
severe electrical storms.  I highly recommend it.  Far easier to
install that the inductive loop being recommended.
