The transmitter sends microwave signals to the receiver, and any motion in the detection zone causes a variation in the received signal strength. The signal variations are detected and processed by the receiver, which declares an intrusion alarm when the received signal meets the criteria for a valid target. The transmitter and receiver units are housed in weatherproof enclosures. Each enclosure contains electronic circuitry and an antenna. Both units can be wired to report enclosure tamper alarms. partial coverage full coverage detection zone partial coverage beam centerline mounting height offset area offset area Figure 1 µltraWave microwave detection sensor Site planning & design The amount of site preparation required depends on the level of security. High security applications require more stringent specifications than do applications where only a beam-break alarm is required. Use the following definitions to determine the level of security required: • High Security Zone - detection of an intruder stomach-crawling parallel to the beam. • Medium Security Zone - detection of an intruder crawling on hands and knees. • Low Security Zone - detection of an upright walking intruder (beam-break alarm). The physical specifications for a high security detection zone are: • maximum transmitter/receiver separation distance of 100 m (328 ft.) • terrain must be level to grade ± 7.5 cm (3 in.) • terrain covered with a 10 cm (4 in.) layer of crushed stone (2 cm {0.75 in.} max.) or a paved zone free of vegetation µltraWave Product Guide Page 3 Site planning & design Site planning Conduct a site survey in which you note the physical features of the zone and surrounding area. Include accurate measurements on a detailed drawing. The following is a list of rules to follow when planning a microwave zone: • Line of sight - A direct, unobstructed line of sight is required between the transmitter and receiver. • Depressions and deviations in terrain - Drainage ditches and gullies must be avoided or filled in. These depressions can allow undetected access by an intruder, and occasional water flow can cause nuisance alarms. Significant deviations from level grade can result in gaps in the detection zone and detection shadows. Gaps and detection shadows create unmonitored areas in the zone. • Vegetation - Trees, bushes, shrubs, tall grass and weeds within the detection zone will increase the sensor’s nuisance alarm rate and reduce the probability of detection, especially when the vegetation is wet with rain or dew. • Objects - Any objects (posts, light standards, stored material, parked vehicles, etc.) within the detection zone can result in gaps in the microwave field and detection shadows. • Ensure that there is adequate separation from any object that could be used to jump over or bridge the detection zone (e.g., fences, trees, storage sheds, etc.). • Motion - Movement within the detection zone can cause nuisance alarms (trees, brush, shrubs, weeds, etc.). The detection zone must not include water, which can cause nuisance alarms when moving (e.g., puddles, ponds, streams, lakes). The detection zone must be fenced in to prevent nuisance alarms caused by animals (cats, dogs, rabbits, deer, livestock, etc.). The motion of metallic objects (vehicles, buildings, fences, materials, etc.) that are close to the detection zone can produce nuisance alarms. • Ground surface - The type of ground surface in the detection zone affects the sensor’s operation: Crushed stone is the optimum ground cover. Crushed stone disperses rain and helps to prevent the formation of puddles. In addition, microwave energy reflects off the rocks, thereby increasing the zone’s sensitivity. Paved surface - A paved surface is recommended for detection zones that require snow removal. Accumulated snow changes the characteristics of the detection zone and can provide cover for a burrowing intruder. Other acceptable surfaces for medium and low security applications include closely mowed grass (7.5 cm {3 in.} or less) and hard-packed dirt or clay. Site design Prepare detailed site drawings for the μltraWave system after completing the site survey. Include dimensions, elevations and the locations of any objects noted during the survey. Once the site drawings are complete, carefully plot each microwave zone. Zone placement, zone length, and offsets are critical factors in the design of a microwave sensor system. Note Page 4 The Universal Configuration Module includes a tool that calculates microwave offsets, mounting heights, beam width, and clearance requirements, based on zone lengths. Use the UCM design tool when planning an μltrawave zone. µltraWave Product Guide Site planning & design Zone placement The μltrawave system requires a long, flat, detection zone free of obstacles and depressions. The minimum distance between the beam centerline and any object (fences, buildings, vehicles, trees, bushes, shrubs, etc.) is outlined in Table 1. Separation distances are based on typical conditions and can vary depending on site conditions including zone length, unit mounting height, ground cover, type of obstacle, etc. The following separation distances are minimum values. Increase the separation distance between the beam centerline and any objects whenever possible. transmitter/receiver separation min. required clearance (beam centerline to object) midpoint zone width 30 m (98 ft.) 0.6 m (2 ft.) 1.2 m (4 ft.) 50 m (164 ft.) 1.0 m (3.3 ft.) 2.0 m (6.6 ft.) 75 m (246 ft.) 1.5 m (5 ft.) 3 m (10 ft.) 90 m (295 ft.) 1.8 m (6 ft.) 3.6 m (12 ft.) 100 m (328 ft.) 2.0 m (6.6 ft.) 4.0 m (13.2 ft.) 125 m (410 ft.) 2.5 m (8.2 ft.) 5.0 m (16.4 ft.) 150 m (492 ft.) 3.0 m (10 ft.) 6.0 m (19.7 ft.) 200 m (656 ft.) 4.0 m (13.2 ft.) 8.0 m (26.3 ft.) Table 1 Unit separation/minimum clearance You can calculate the required minimum clearance between the beam centerline and an object by using the following formula: (transmitter/receiver separation) X 0.02 = (min. distance between beam centerline and object) The formula can also be used to calculate the maximum separation between the transmitter and receiver when you know the available clearance between the beam centerline and the nearest object: (transmitter/receiver separation) = (min. distance between beam centerline and object) / 0.02 Zone length The optimum length of each zone depends on several factors: • the required level of security • physical constraints (terrain, trees, fences, buildings, etc.) • available space for the detection zone For a high security zone, the maximum zone length is 90 m (295 ft.) and the maximum distance between the transmitter and receiver is 100 m (328 ft.). For a medium security zone, the maximum zone length is 140 m (459 ft.) and the maximum distance between the transmitter and receiver is 150 m (492 ft.). For a low security zone, the maximum zone length is 200 m (656 ft.) and the maximum distance between the transmitter and receiver is 200 m. Zone height The height of the microwave field is approximately equal to the minimum distance between the beam centerline and an object (see Table 1) plus the unit mounting height. For applications that require additional zone height it is possible to stack two or more units on one mounting post. Stacking μltrawave sensors is described in application note E4DA0109. µltraWave Product Guide Page 5 Site planning & design Microwave offsets The areas immediately above and below the transmitter and receiver antennas are not exposed to the microwave energy. A microwave offset is used to prevent this unmonitored area from being vulnerable to undetected intrusions (see Figure 2). Offsets prevent intruders from crawling under or jumping over a microwave unit to gain undetected access to the protected area. The offset distances in the example drawings are based on a 100 m separation between the transmitter and receiver and a mounting height of 55 cm (21.5 in.) beam centerline to ground. As the mounting height increases a longer offset is necessary. Different types of offsets are shown in Figure 3. partial coverage full coverage detection zone beam centerline 55 cm (21.5 in.) partial coverage required offset 5m (16.4 ft.)

However, the mounting height chart (see Figure 4) can also be used to determine the optimal mounting height for the transmitter and receiver. The horizontal axis of the chart represents the separation distance between the transmitter and receiver. The vertical axis represents the height of the transmitter and receiver from the center of the antenna to the ground’s surface. The node curves (N1, N2, N3, N4, N5 and N6) indicate the recommended locations for coordinating distance (horizontal axis) to mounting height (vertical axis). Coordinate lines that meet on the node curves provide the highest received signal strength. Avoid the mounting height and distance coordinates between the node curves. For high security applications, a mounting height at N1 will provide optimum system operation. Example: The distance between the transmitter and receiver is 85 m (279 ft.). Locate this distance on the height chart's horizontal axis. Plot a vertical line from this distance point across the node curves. These height measurements represent the best theoretical mounting heights for this example. They are 50 cm (20 in.) for the N1 curve, 70 cm (28 in.) for the N2 curve, 87 cm (34 in.) for the N3 curve, etc. mounting height inches 79 75 71 67 63 59 55 51 47 43 39 35 32 28 24 20 16 12 cm 200 190 180 N6 N5 N4 N3 170 160 150 140 130 120 110 100 90 Node curves N1 N2 N3 N2 N4 80 70 60 N5 N1 N6 50 40 30 20 10 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 110 120 130 140 150 160 170 180 190 200 meters 33 66 98 131 164 197 230 263 295 328 361 394 427 459 492 525 558 591 623 656 feet transmitter/receiver separation Figure 4 Mounting height chart µltraWave Product Guide Page 7 Site planning & design Power and ground requirements The μltraWave sensor system consumes 4 W maximum. Both the transmitter and receiver can operate on a wide range of input voltages (12 to 48 VDC). The required gauge of the power cable depends on the power supply capacity, the number of μltraWave units being powered and the lengths of the power cable runs. In locations where AC power may not be stable or reliable, an uninterruptable power supply (UPS) should be used for primary power. Each μltraWave unit requires a nearby connection to a low resistance earth ground. Note Senstar recommends installing a low resistance (5Ω or less) earth ground at each unit. Consult the local electrical codes for grounding information. Alarm data communications Alarm monitoring is site specific and depends on whether you are using relay output alarm communications (Local control mode) or network based alarm communications (Remote control mode). Each unit has two user-configurable Form C relay outputs. In Local control mode, the receiver’s two outputs can be configured to signal alarm, Tx comm link fail, enclosure tamper (transmitter and receiver unit) input power fail, hardware faults (transmitter and receiver unit) and system fail (fail-safe operation). The transmitter unit’s two outputs can be configured to signal enclosure tamper, input power fail, hardware faults and system fail (fail-safe operation). Each receiver unit also includes an auxiliary (Aux) input. The Aux input is not used in Local control mode. To communicate on the Silver Network, a network interface card (NIC) must be installed on the receiver PCB. There are five variants of the NIC available: EIA-422, multimode fiber optic, singlemode fiber optic, mixed media EIA-422 and multimode, and mixed media EIA-422 and singlemode. For network based systems (Remote control mode) alarm data is carried over the network cables and the relays are available as output control points from the security management system. The transmitter’s tamper notification is transmitted to the receiver unit, which notifies the security management system of a tamper condition. In Remote control mode the receiver’s Aux input can be used to report the status of an auxiliary security device to the head end. The transmitters Aux input is not used in Remote control mode. Note It is possible to use relay output alarm communications and setup a Silver Network for maintenance purposes. This enables remote calibration, maintenance and diagnostic access to your μltrawave units from a central control facility. Network wiring Note A network interface card must be installed on the receiver PCB to enable network communications. Transmission media/maximum separation distances between μltraWave receivers using network communications: • EIA-422 copper wire - 1.2 km (0.75 mi.) • Multimode fiber optic cable - 2.2 km (1.4 mi.) - 2 fibers per Channel • Singlemode fiber optic cable - 10 km (6.2 mi.) - 2 fibers per Channel Note Page 8 Senstar strongly recommends the use of low capacitance shielded twisted pair data cable for EIA-422, 62.5/125 multimode fiber optic cable, and 9/125 singlemode fiber optic cable. µltraWave Product Guide Site planning & design Relay contact ratings The dry contact relays are single pole, double throw, Form C, latching, rated for 30 V @ 1 A max. In Remote control mode, you can configure the relays as latching (ON by command, OFF by command), in flash mode (ON-OFF-ON-OFF, etc. by command, then OFF by command), or pulse mode (ON for a period, then OFF). For flash and pulse modes, the relay Active/Inactive times are selectable. In Local control mode the relays remain active for the event’s duration or for the selectable Hold Time, whichever is longer. Cable ports Each μltraWave unit includes two 22 mm (0.875 in.) cable ports. The post-mounting kit (E4KT0300) includes two compression glands for cable sizes 5 mm to 6.4 mm (3/16 in. to 1/4 in.) and two alternate compression glands for cable sizes 11 mm to 13 mm (7/16 in. to 1/2 in.). If required, the enclosure can be fitted with 13 mm (1/2 in.) conduit, in place of the compression glands. Conduit and conduit fittings are not included. Note Mounting posts/surfaces The μltraWave units mount easily on posts with an outside diameter ranging between 4.8 cm and 11.4 cm (1.875 in. and 4.5 in.). The posts must be plumb, firmly set in the ground, and unable to rotate or move. For areas where the ground freezes, the posts must be protected against potential frost heaving. A 2.5 m (8 ft.) post is generally used with 91 cm (3 ft.) of the post buried in a concrete footing. Figure 5 is an illustration of a post-mounted μltraWave unit. µltraWave unit 4.8 to 11.4 cm post power and alarm wiring in conduit ground wire mounting height from center of antenna to ground ground rod ground level buried conduit to alarm panel & power supply 91 cm * (3 ft.) 61 cm rebar concrete footing through post (2 ft.) * Consult the local construction codes for information about using concrete footings in ares where ground freezing occurs. Figure 5 Post installation and unit mounting µltraWave Product Guide Page 9 Site planning & design Senstar recommends hiring a local fencing contractor to install the μltraWave mounting posts. Note Foundation The foundation for the mounting posts in normal soil should be at least 91 cm (3 ft.) deep and 61 cm (2 ft.) in diameter. If soil conditions are such that a non-shifting foundation is questionable, then a larger footing is required. In areas where ground freezing can cause frost heaving, use a truncated pyramid base foundation. When the foundation concrete cures, there is a possibility of it pulling away from the post, thereby, allowing the post to rotate. Installing a length of rebar through the post in the concrete foundation will prevent any rotation. Surface-mount applications The post-mount bracket can also be used to mount an μltraWave unit on a fixed stable surface. The hardware required for fastening the bracket to the surface is not included. If you are considering a surface mount application, the transmitter receiver alignment must be carefully planned, as the mounting bracket cannot be adjusted in the horizontal plane for surface mount applications. mounting bracket µltraWave unit power and alarm wiring in conduit mounting height from center of antenna to ground ground wire ground level ground rod Figure 6 Surface mounting example Page 10 µltraWave Product Guide 2 Installation The μltraWave transmitter and receiver units are almost identical, with only minor differences in component layout.

The mounting height of the transmitter and receiver units is measured from the center of the antenna to the ground’s surface. As an alignment aid, the cover over the antenna includes an embossed X-pattern, that indicates the center of the antenna.The μltraWave units can also be mounted on a wall or other flat stable surface. Both the transmitter and receiver units must be mounted at the same height above ground. After mounting, the two units must be aligned to point directly at each other. Senstar recommends hiring a local fencing contractor to install the μltraWave mounting posts. Note E4KT0300 post-mounting kit Each µltraWave unit includes one set of the following hardware components: mounting bracket post collar compression glands and alternates gear clamp hardware mounting bracket to µltraWave unit Figure 8 Mounting hardware/alignment aid Post-mounting procedure 1. Using an 11 mm (7/16 in.) wrench and the supplied hardware (hex nut, lock washer, flat washer - X4) attach the mounting bracket to the μltraWave unit (see Figure 9 ). 2. Pass the gear clamp through the slots in the post collar. 3. Using an 11 mm wrench and the supplied hardware (bolt, lock washer, flat washer - X4) attach the post collar to the mounting bracket. 4. Wrap the gear clamp around the post and measure the mounting height of the μltraWave unit from the center of the antenna (see Figure 8 ) to the ground’s surface. 5. Aim the μltraWave unit at the second mounting post, and using an 8 mm (5/16 in.) nut driver or socket, tighten the gear clamp with the μltraWave unit at the specified height. 6. Measure and verify the mounting height. 7. Repeat for the second μltraWave unit. Page 12 µltraWave Product guide Figure 9 Post-mounting procedure Post-mount alignment For optimal performance, ensure that the μltraWave transmitter and receiver are aimed directly toward each other, and that the mounting height is correct for both units (see Figure 10 ). 1. Measure and verify the mounting heights of both units. 2. If required, loosen the transmitter’s gear clamp slightly, and then carefully aim the transmitter directly at the receiver. 3. Tighten the transmitter’s gear clamp. 4. If required, loosen the receiver’s gear clamp slightly, and then carefully aim the receiver directly at the transmitter. 5. Tighten the receiver’s gear clamp. 6. If required, loosen the four bolts that attach the post collar to the mounting bracket and aim the units (in the vertical axis) toward each other.

Surface mounted μltraWave units cannot be rotated in the horizontal axis. If required, use shims to adjust the horizontal alignment of surface mounted units. The μltraWave mounting bracket can be used to surface mount the transmitter and/or receiver. The mounting bracket is attached to the μltraWave unit, and then to the post collar. The post collar is rotated 180º so the flat side is facing outward toward the mounting surface. Customersupplied hardware is used to attach the collar to the mounting surface. Surface mounting procedure 1. Using an 11 mm (7/16 in.) wrench and the supplied hardware (hex nut, lock washer, flat washer - X4) attach the mounting bracket to the μltraWave unit. Page 14 µltraWave Product guide 2. Using an 11 mm (7/16 in.) wrench and the supplied hardware (bolt, lock washer, flat washer X4) attach the post collar to the mounting bracket with the flat side of the collar to the outside. post collar mounting bracket Figure 11 µltraWave alignment 3. Hold the μltraWave unit against the mounting surface and measure the mounting height of the unit from the center of the antenna to the ground’s surface (see Figure 8 ). Mark the mounting surface at the centers of the two slots in the post collar. 4. Drill two holes in the mounting surface. 5. Remove the post collar from the mounting bracket, and use appropriate fasteners to attach the post collar to the mounting surface. 6. Re-attach the mounting bracket and μltraWave unit to the post collar. 7. Measure and verify the mounting height. 8. Mount the second μltraWave unit. Surface-mount alignment To ensure optimal performance, it is critical that the μltraWave transmitter and receiver are aimed directly toward each other, and that the mounting height is correct for both units. 1. Verify the mounting heights of both units. 2. If required, loosen the mounting hardware on the post collars, and install shims so that the μltraWave transmitter and receiver point directly at each other (horizontal adjustment). 3. Tighten the mounting hardware. 4. If required, loosen the four bolts attaching the post collar to the mounting bracket and aim the units toward each other (in the vertical axis). Re-tighten the bolts. Transmitter/receiver wiring connections The μltraWave wiring connections are made on removable terminal blocks. The screw terminals accept wire sizes from 12 to 24 AWG, with a 6.4 mm (0.25 in.) strip length. Remove the terminal blocks to make the wiring connections. Reinstall the blocks after the connections are complete, and verified. The DC power input is made on T3 and the input/output connections are made on T6. The Aux input is available only through Remote control mode when using network communications. Refer to Figure 12 for an illustration of the μltraWave wiring connections. µltraWave Product guide Page 15 power input (12 to 48 VDC) T3 AUX input (Remote control mode) input/output connections output 1 output 2 NO COM NC NO COM NC T6 ground connection details machine screw lock washer ground wire external tooth washer PCB ground connection PCB Figure 12 Transmitter/receiver wiring connections T3 - power input The μltraWave units require 12 to 48 VDC to operate. Pin 1 is negative and pin 2 is positive. T6 - inputs/outputs T6 connects to output 1, output 2 and an auxiliary (Aux) input (see Figure 12 for connection details). In Local control mode each output is configured via the UCM to report user-specified alarm conditions (see Alarm data communications on page 8). The Aux input is not used in Local control mode. In Remote control mode the outputs are used by the security management system as output control points. The Receiver’s Aux input is available to report the status of an auxiliary security device. The Aux input on the transmitter is not used. Relay contact ratings The dry contact relays are single pole, double throw, Form C, latching, rated for 30 V @ 1 A max. Auxiliary input In Remote control mode, the receiver’s AUX input is a voltage sensing input. The receiver determines the input’s status via an internal reference voltage, and the configuration of the contact closures and supervision resistors. Any change in the input’s status is reported to the host security management system. Note The contact closure input to the AUX input must be voltage-free. Cable ports Each μltraWave unit includes two 22 mm (0.875 in.) cable ports fitted with compression glands. Remove the compression glands, pull the cables through the glands and into the enclosure. Then replace the compression glands. After making the wiring connections, hand-tighten the compression glands to provide weather protection and strain relief. Page 16 µltraWave Product guide Making the I/O wiring connections 1. Pull the data cable into the enclosure. 2. Prepare the data cable - strip length = 6.4 mm (0.25 in.). 3. Remove the terminal block from T6, make the wiring connections, and then replace the terminal block (see Figure 12 ). Enclosure tamper switch Each μltraWave unit includes a mechanical tamper switch (closed = secure, open = tamper) to indicate if the enclosure cover is removed. Placing a shunt on header T2 overrides the tamper switch (shunt ON = secure). Transmitter/Receiver grounding Note Senstar recommends using a low resistance (5Ω or less) earth ground connection at each unit. Consult the local electrical codes for additional grounding information. 1. Connect an approved ground wire to a properly installed ground rod at the μltraWave unit’s installation location. 2. Connect the ground wire to the ground lug on the transmitter/receiver PCB (see Figure 12 ). Power supply connection WARNING! DO NOT bring AC mains power into the μltraWave enclosure. If a local power supply is being used, it must be installed in its own weatherproof enclosure. Consult the local electrical code for information about the connection of AC mains to your power supply. When a central low voltage power supply is being used for primary power, it should be powered from an uninterruptible AC power source. • To power the system from a central source, run the power distribution cable around the perimeter and tap off to each μltraWave unit. Use a minimum 14 gauge wire for power runs up to 1.2 km (4000 ft.). For longer runs use 12 gauge wire. • At each μltraWave unit, splice the power cable to a lighter gauge pigtail that is approximately 30 cm (12 in.) long. Connect the negative lead to T3-1 (-) and connect the positive lead to T3-2 (+) (see Figure 12 ). Local power supply To use a local DC power supply outdoors, the power supply must be installed in its own weatherproof enclosure. The local supply can be mounted on the same post as the μltraWave unit to keep the wire runs to a minimum. Connect the negative lead to T3-1 (-) and connect the positive lead to T3-2 (+) (see Figure 12 ). µltraWave Product guide Page 17 Silver Network wiring connections A network interface card must be installed on the μltraWave receiver to enable network communications.

The UCM is a window-based software application that performs the calibration, setup, maintenance and diagnostic functions for Senstar’s line of intrusion detection sensors. The UCM connects directly to the μltraWave unit via USB. Network based μltraWave receivers can also connect remotely via the Silver Network Manager. Senstar recommends that the initial calibration be done at the μltraWave unit using a direct USB connection to the UCM. An enclosure tamper condition must exist to enable UCM communication via a USB connection. Note Consult the online help for detailed information on UCM operation. The μltraWave receiver setup requires the following configuration settings: • specify the Locale - FCC for North American applications, ETSI for European applications (transmitter and receiver settings must match) • specify the Frequency Pair (transmitter and receiver settings must match) • enter the Transmitter Serial Number • set the detection Thresholds (velocity response) (use the UCM design tool to calculate the optimum detection Thresholds) The μltraWave transmitter setup requires the following configuration settings: • specify the Locale - FCC for North American applications, ETSI for European applications (transmitter and receiver settings must match) • specify the Frequency Pair (transmitter and receiver settings must match) Once the μltraWave transmitter and receiver are properly installed and configured, you can calibrate the receiver unit. On the receiver’s UCM Status tab, select the recalibrate button and the μltraWave receiver will auto-calibrate to provide the best possible received signal strength (see Receiver calibration on page 26). µltraWave Product guide Page 21 Setup Setup μltraWave setup and calibration must be performed by a qualified technician. Note Connecting the UCM 1. Remove the lower cover from the μltraWave enclosure and use a USB cable to connect the UCM computer to T2 on the transmitter PCB. 2. Start the UCM application and establish a connection. Figure 18 Connecting the UCM The first time the UCM connects to the transmitter/receiver units, you are prompted to select the sensor’s Locale (FCC for North American operation, or ETSI for European operation). Make the selection based on the country in which the unit is installed. The μltraWave will not operate until both the transmitter and receiver have the Locale specified. Note The μltraWave Microwave Detection Sensor complies with FCC standard 15.245 for North American operation, and with ETSI standard EN 300 440 for European operation. Table 3 includes the European countries in which the standard is recognized (CEPT group of nations with the EU members listed in parenthesis). If the country in which you are installing the μltraWave is not included in the table, contact the local Certification Authority before installing the system.
