• Manufactured from high quality components
• Quick field installation
• 12 month warranty
• IR beam units are mounted on custom brackets with pc board for RJ-45 socket, LED indicator, audible alarm and intelligent control
• Control unit is microcontroller based and houses an audible and visual alarm
• Standard LaneMinder will span up to 40 lanes - higher power IR units are available for larger lane areas
• The LaneMinder is currently installed in more than half of bowling centres in Australia including all AMF centres. Many more units are installed in the UK, Europe and the US.
• Control Unit has provision for Beam 1 (infra-red beam transmitter and receiver pair positioned about 5 feet past foul line) and Beam 2 (optional infra-red beam transmitter and receiver pair positioned about 5 feet in front of mask units). See below for more detail.

LaneMinder 2 Standard
Beam 1 transmit (Tx) and receive (Rx) units are fixed to the side walls of the centre, one at each end, at somewhere between 5 and 15ft down the lanes.
Height of the beams over the lanes should be about 18 inches to 2 feet, so that a lane machine can just slip under it. This should catch anyone, including a child who tries to walk down the lane.
Buzzers sound and a high intensity LED array flashes on the control unit when Beam 1 is broken.

LaneMinder 2 Plus
is a LaneMinder 2 Standard plus.....
...... additional (Beam 2) transmit and receive modules (supplied with LaneMinder 2 Beam 2 kit) which should be fixed to the side walls at about 50 to 55 feet down the lanes.
When Beam 2 is broken in sequence after Beam 1, the buzzers increase in intensity and the Cut-out modules shut down the pinspotter or pinsetter machines.

Some bowling centre operators may think that it would be an inconvenience to have all lanes shut down if that second beam were to be broken by a patron. The machines will only be shut down if Beam 2 is broken in sequence after Beam 1 and only if the control unit has not been reset after Beam 1 is broken. Consider the inconvenience if a person were injured by a pinspotter or pinsetter.

Contact your public risk insurer and ask if they give premium discounts where a public safety device such as LaneMinder 2 is installed.

Customers can order this kit without Cat-5 cables to significantly reduce shipping weight.

• Top Left: Cutout-2 Module - connects with Managers Control or Mask Switch to shut down machine pair
• Top Right: Cutout Control Module - controls operation of Cutout-2 Modules. Has "Lanes" and "Reset" buttons to duplicate those on main Control Unit. Optional Remote Control plugs into this Module
