Introduction
SentryHound-Pro™ Ferromagnetic Contraband Portal is a dual or single pole solution to detect unauthorized
or illegal PEDs (Personal Electronic Devices) including cell phones, tablets, laptops, smartwatches, wearables
and even weapons including guns and knives. SentryHound-Pro’s ferromagnetic inspection zones are highly
sensitive to trace amounts of ferrous material found in plastic cell phones and miniaturized electronics. These
same devices slip through regular metal detectors without detection but not SentryHound-Pro because of its
sensitivity, unique motion detection and enhanced false trigger rejection. This allows for a rapid security
checkpoint of pockets, bags, purses, clothing and even body cavities.
• Ferromagnetic Contraband Portal (2 poles included) for the quickest & most accurate ferromagnetic
inspection security checkpoint
• Single pole setup anywhere in under 30 seconds
• Lightweight, versatile & all day battery power

Unpacking Your Unit
SentryHound-Pro ships in a protective carton designed specifically for the hardware. Be sure to keep this box
and all packing materials in case unit needs to be sent back to factory for repairs or updates. Once you have
unpacked all items and have made yourself accustomed with SentryHound-Pro features, typical setup for the
unit can be accomplished in only 30 seconds.
Powering Up Unit
Be sure to keep the unit charging using the included charger in case you need to move it into an area where
there are no nearby power outlets. It can take several hours to fully charge. When you first power the unit on, it
will automatically enter into a calibration procedure taking approximately 30 seconds to complete.
SentryHound-Pro self calibrates so you do not need to calibrate manually unless the unit is moved to a different
location. After the unit has been moved, you should always press the CALIBRATE button and wait 30 seconds.
While the unit calibrates, do not stand within 5 feet of it and make sure there is no movement of large ferrous
objects in the area. If calibration is interfered with in any way, you can simply press the CALIBRATE button
again.

Controls and Alerts
SentryHound-Pro is housed in a rugged aluminum chassis with weather resistant seals and
buttons. The internal 12V sealed lead acid battery takes approximately 3 hours to fully charge
and lasts approximately 24 hours under normal operation. The unit includes 5 color-coded
buttons, a physical lock and key, dry trigger contact and USB port on the top of the base.
The front side (product name etched in this side) of the base includes a motion sensor that
only triggers the alarms if ferrous material is detected while someone is moving past this
sensor. On the bottom left of the front side of the base is the power input connector for
charging the internal battery.
The rear side of the base includes a motion sensor just like on the other side of the base and
also an infrared sensor for communication between two pole configurations. This is useful for
setting up various configurations detailed later in this user manual.
Then pole contains (4) alert zones that detect ferrous material all the way from the floor up to
over the top of the alert dome on the top of the pole. This ensures that the tallest subjects
passing through the poles cannot hide contraband in their shoes or any kind of headwear.
Each zone blinks to indicate the approximate area where the ferrous material is detected. The
dome light on top of the pole blinks for alerts but also to indicate the u it is ready for the next
ferrous scan. All LEDs on the pole can change color to indicate the current mode or setup or
operation.

Beacon Alert Colors
The light atop the sensor pole can indicate modes independently of other visual alerts and sounds. Make note of
the beacon’s color and/or blinking to understand the corresponding modes.
Solid green indicates that the unit is ready for detection. Always wait for solid green before
letting anyone pass by the unit.
Blinking red (adjustable duration using ALERT button) indicates positive detection of ferrous
material. Red LED alert zone clusters in sensor pole stay solid to indicate area of ferrous
detection.
Solid yellow indicates calibration in progress. Allow the unit to fully calibrate (about 30
seconds) without any nearby (about 5 feet away) ferrous movement. Once the beacon turns
green, allow foot traffic to resume for detection.
Blinking blue (same duration as positive detection) indicates that subject needs to be screened
again. This indicates detection of high background noise during the first pass. Once beacon
light goes back solid green, subject must pass by unit again to properly check for ferrous
material.

Controlling SentryHound-Pro
SentryHound-Pro buttons are color-coded to match the color of the LED alerts and configuration modes in the
pole. Some of these buttons require holding down in combinations to enter into different detection
configurations. Consult this manual fully or the included quick start guide for more details.
ON/OFF Button – Push this button to power on SentryHound-Pro. Hold button in for 3 seconds to
power the unit back off.
BATTERY LEVEL – Push this button to check the level of the internal battery. The alert zones
on the pole light up to from the bottom to the top to indicate 25%, 50%, 75% or 100% capacity.
CALIBRATION – Push this button to calibrate the unit at any time. The process takes about 30
seconds. You should also push this button if the unit is moved to a different location while still
powered on.
SENSITIVITY – Push this button adjust detection sensitivity. The higher the sensitivity setting
(more LEDs lit on the pole) the more the unit is prone to false triggers.
ALERT – Push this button to cycle through various alert audio and visual durations.
KEY – Turn and remove this key to lock or unlock the unit to prevent tampering. When in the
locked position, all settings are static (including main power) and cannot be changed until key
is inserted and turned back to the unlock position.
DRY TRIGGER CONTACT – Connect this contact to an external speaker, camera, DVR or
visual alert to add additional functionality each time the unit is triggered by ferrous detection.
USB – This port allows the unit firmware to be updated. Be sure to consult with
[email protected] for upgrade steps before performing any update to your unit.
MOTION SENSOR / INFRARED SENSOR – Be sure that unit bases (single or dual pole
configurations) are free from obstructions so that these sensors can detect motion and
communicate between bases during setup procedures.
POWER INPUT – Use only the provided AC adapter to power and charge the unit here.

MORE ABOUT FERROUS DETECTION
Ferrous detectors are used to detect changes in the earth’s omnipresent magnetic field in a space. The detector is
initially conditioned to the earth’s magnetic field and its immediate surroundings. Many variables can change the
magnetic field measured by a ferrous detector such as the introduction of ferrous material around the detector or
physical movement of the ferrous detector itself.
Ferrous materials are materials that can be magnetized and also known as ferromagnetic material. They are mostly
iron, but can also be nickel, cobalt and some alloys of rare-earth metals, or common magnets. Some common
non-ferrous metals are copper and aluminum. Depending upon the composition and purity of material, brass and
stainless steel might have some trace of ferromagnetic material in them even if they do not appear to be
magnetizable.
Introduction of nearby ferrous material causes perturbation in the earth’s magnetic field, and that change is picked
up by the ferrous detector. Digital signal processing is applied to the detected change and a visual/audio alert is
issued. There are four ferromagnetic sensors in each SentryHound-Pro pole, linearly arranged and equidistant
apart from each other so that the sensor with the strangest signal will be visually indicated.
Please note that the following items (not exhaustive list) might have enough ferrous material to trigger a ferrous
detector: rolling office chairs, large trucks moving outside, metal eyeglass frames, belt buckle, shoes,
wristwatches, metal zipper, metal buttons or studs within fabric. Another potential source of interference are
power supplies in close proximity to the system. Keep power supplies for any electronics and power supply cables
of any electronics away from the system. Awareness of these materials will help isolate contraband vs. false
triggers which will accelerate screenings and security checkpoints.
Physical stability of the SentryHound-Pro system is very important for proper operation. As noted above, any
movement or vibration of the system during operation might disturb the magnetic field and potentially trigger the
detector. SentryHound-Pro should NOT be used on any carpet or flooring that has the slightest give when someone
walks nearby. If a system is moved at all, it should stabilize after 5 seconds or so to resume detection. However,
in certain instances, the extreme movement of the system could trigger a full calibration procedure (as indicated
by yellow beacon light on top of pole), and after about 30 seconds, the system will again be ready for detection.
Users can, at any time, initiate this calibration manually by pressing the CALIBRATE button.

Operational Modes
There are six unique modes of operation:
MODE 1: Free standing gated tethered portal
MODE 2: Free standing gated untethered portal
MODE 3: Wall‐mounted unidirectional
MODE 4: Free standing unidirectional
MODE 5: Free Standing omnidirectional
MODE 6: Free standing bidirectional
Modes 1 and 4 are the most commonly used so this manual will focus mostly on them but all modes are
supported using the dual pole configuration. By default, the single pole SentryHound-Pro ships supporting
modes 3 and 5. If you have received the dual pole configuration, the default modes are 1 and 2. Modes 4 and 5
require a button combination to activate.
Mode 1: Free standing gated tethered portal
In this mode, two SentryHound-Pro poles are used as a
tethered portal in order to guide foot traffic and increase
detection distance up to 64 inches between poles. Be sure
that both units are placed on solid, level flooring
(preferably concrete or tile) with no give or else they might
falsely trigger. Once the poles are linked, even small
amounts of ferrous material passing anywhere in between
the two poles, from ground level up to 75 inches above the
ground, will trigger an alert. Poles will only trigger while
someone is moving between them meaning security staff
can move freely around the portal without triggering any
alert.
Setting up this configuration is simple. Be sure both units are placed a few feet apart (you can adjust final
spacing later) and that the IR sensors are facing each other. The alert LEDs on one side of the poles, the buttons
and the SentryHound-Pro etching on the base should all be viewable and easily accessible from the outside of
the portal allowing only foot traffic within the portal to be detected as they pass through.
Once aligned, pressing the POWER button on both units within 4 seconds of each other will automatically link
the two poles. The first unit powered on will automatically become the master pole making the other unit the
slave. The master unit ALERT button will blink 3 times to indicate that tethering is successful.
Note: If ferrous material passes through the portal at the same time that someone else moves near the portal,
there is a risk of false detection. SentryHound-Pro should always be setup in an area with minimal
ferromagnetic activity. This activity can include large moving ferrous objects such as wheeled office chairs,
filing cabinet drawers, steel doors and even large trucks in a nearby parking lot.

9
Mode 2: Free standing gated untethered portal
In this mode, two or more SentryHound-Pro poles
can be used as a row of multiple untethered portals in
order to guide foot traffic through a virtual gate or
wall. In this configuration, units allow for foot traffic
on either side of the unit without the need for
tethering to each other. Be sure all units are placed
on solid, level flooring (preferably concrete or tile)
with no give or else they might falsely trigger. Once
the units are powered on, even small amounts of
ferrous material passing anywhere in between the
units, from ground level up to 75 inches above the ground, will trigger an alert. Poles will only trigger while
someone is moving between them meaning security staff can move freely around the portal without triggering
any alert.
Since this configuration does not require any tethering, units may be powered on at any time and do not need to
be facing in any particular direction. Press the POWER button on the first unit and wait a few seconds for the
ALERT button to blink. Next, turn on the second unit and wait for that ALERT button to blink. Continue doing
this to as many units as you would like to align for a full gated effect.
Note: If ferrous material passes through the portal at the same time that someone else moves near the portal,
there is a risk of false detection. SentryHound-Pro should always be setup in an area with minimal
ferromagnetic activity. This activity can include large moving ferrous objects such as wheeled office chairs,
filing cabinet drawers, steel doors and even large trucks in a nearby parking lot.
