BallistiSCAN V3 support library.

Training footage and reference documents for fielded BallistiSCAN V3 units. BallistiSCAN is plug-and-play — the unit auto-calibrates to the doorway on power-up — so these videos are for operators who want a deeper understanding of setup, placement, threshold behavior, and field use. The V3 operator's manual and the comparative sensing chart are below.

Plug-and-play

Auto-calibrating at the doorway

BallistiSCAN is designed to be stood up by the operator — power on, and the unit calibrates itself to the environment. No on-site technician or factory tuning visit required.

Training video library

Nine training videos.

Short-format training originally produced for the BallistiSCAN University onboarding program. Watch in any order. Videos play inline below.

01 · Quick start

Getting started with BallistiSCAN V3

Walks through the contents of the field case: sensor discs, mounting brackets, cabling, alarm tower, and controls. Start here on day one.

02 · Deployment

Deployment and lane setup

How to choose the doorway, place the sensors, and position the lane for reliable passive reading.

03 · Sensor setup

Sensor mounting and alignment

Fine-tuning sensor position, alignment, and separation for the target entrance geometry.

04 · Alarm threshold

Understanding the alarm threshold

How the auto-calibrated threshold behaves, and how to read it against the site's risk profile and expected foot traffic.

05 · Reading the values

Discover your values

How the unit’s auto-calibrated values present on screen, and how to read them for your site.

06 · Ferromagnetic detection

How ferromagnetic detection works

The physics of the passive sensing element. Why it reads ferromagnetic mass, what that covers, and what it does not.

07 · Science

The science behind the sensor

A deeper look at the measurement principle and why puck-sized sensing is enough to cover a doorway.

08 · Use cases

Deployment use cases

School entries, houses of worship, healthcare lobbies, memorials, and government receptions. Where puck-sized sensing fits.

09 · Edge cases

Handling edge-case detection

Working example of a specific detection scenario encountered in the field, and how the unit responds.

Comparative sensing chart

How BallistiSCAN compares.

A side-by-side reference of BallistiSCAN's passive ferromagnetic sensing versus the conventional walk-through category. Use this as a starting point for specifying against an RFP.
