This article discusses the most common Diablo Controls detectors and probes questions.

Question Answer

Are the following different products or the same?

  • Mini Exit Probe
  • Free Exit Probe
  • Mini Loop Probe
  • Magnetometer
Yes, they are all the same.
Does regenerative braking distort the inductive field or causes false triggers in loop detectors? Regenerative braking systems can raise or distort the inductive field, causing detectors to think a vehicle is already present. Diablo Controls detectors include features specifically designed to counteract the effects of regenerative braking.
Will Free Exit Probes work with another brand of detectors? No, it will only work with Diablo Controls detectors.
Will a Reno BT-AVI work with a Diablo AVI-SD and AVI-X or can I replace Reno AVI-XS1 with Diablo Controls AVI-X (puck) and AVI-SD (provides power puck with vehicle)? Yes, as long as the transmitter is configured correctly.
Can the DSP-14M/DSP-14S be used for safety loops? Yes, you can use our DSP-14 for Safety and Free Exit Loop.
Can you connect a Free Exit Loop to DSP-14M, or can you connect a DSP-14S to any other detector? No. DSP-14M and DSP14S are made for each other. No mismatch with any other loop or detector.
Can connect a Diablo Free Exit Probe with an AVI-40? No.
