Premier Guard Installation Manual  9  Quick Start for System Connections  A Premier Guard system consists of a stepdown transformer, a Premier Line Control Unit (PLCU) and a transceiver (antenna).  The transformer box has two 24vac outputs that can power both the PLCU and transceiver. A single transformer box supports one PLCU and transceiver.   The PLCU is powered by the stepdown transformer via a single 24vac power input. The PLCU has two types of connections for the transceiver. One is a transmit control signal connector and the other s a receive signal connector. Both the TX and RX cables will connect from the PLCU to the transceiver. The PLCU case is constructed to facilitate wall mounting.  Before permanently connecting the pedestal, place it at the location you intend to install it, and then arrange the cables from the PLCU directly to the pedestal. You will have to remove the pedestal base cover to connect the cables.  Additional installation procedures are shown in greater detail in the following sections.

One is that system picks up tags and labels poorly. The other is that system false alarms (or causes other system to do so) without tags or labels in detection zone.  Low Pick up Rate 1.  Check noise “D” (ranging from 0-999, >100 or so is big noise & >400 is heavy noise). 2.  Adjust MIN, GN & RE to increase sensitivity (see diagram below). 3.  Adjust POT for Rx signal pre-process sensitivity on TX board (see page 18). 4.  Shorten pedestal separation or use stronger tags (e.g. Super Pencil).  Interference with or by other systems               1.  Swap L & N terminals on power plug of control pack. 2.  Adjust SYN “B” step by step to align up with other systems.  Please open and tune the systems one by one if there are multiple systems installed.  It will help determine which system is causing the problem. PROBLEMS SOLUTIONS The diagram below explains how the major three tuning parameters influence system performance.

Premier Guard Installation Manual  29  Noise Condition Display Configuration Table Value  Function Description  Detection Purpose 0  Shut down tag or noise window display.   D1  Tag window display for channel one.  Detect tag entering vertically. D2  Tag window display for channel two.  Detect tag entering horizontally. D3  Average noise window display for channel one. D4  Average noise window display for channel two.  Monitor average noise.  Note: The average noise level (D3 & D4) is also weighted by the Minimum Signal Adjustment value. Therefore, if MIN (H value) is increased to be larger than the average noise level, D3 or D4 will only show the H value instead of the average noise value.   Key ID H:  Minimum signal Adjustment (Suggested increment: 20; practical range: 0-200) Decreasing this number will increase system sensitivity but also at the risk of false alarming. Vice versa, increasing the value will lower system sensitivity to avoid false alarms caused by uncontrollable environment noise. There is also an auxiliary POT for RX signal pre-process sensitivity adjustment (see page 18 and Addendum 1).  There are two antenna channels. Channel 1 is related to vertical orientation and Channel 2 is related to horizontal orientation. H1 (MIN1) sets the minimum signal of Channel 1, and H2 (MIN2) sets the minimum signal of Channel 2. •  Press [MIN] – panel displays as per Figure 7. •  Input the parameter number. •  Press [CON] to accept the parameter.

Premier Guard Installation Manual  30  After confirmation of H1 or H2 values, the panel will display the average noise level weighted by the minimum signal adjustment for both antenna channels as follows. (See NSE noise display entry. It’s the same value with D3, D4)  D3 reflects the average noise level weighted by H1 (MIN1) in antenna channel 1. D4 reflects the average noise value weighted by H2 (MIN2) in antenna channel 2.

Premier Guard Installation Manual  33 Addendum 1 Pedestal Sensitivity Adjustment Guide   1. Two Methods to Adjust Sensitivity There are two ways to adjust system sensitivity, and each method has a different effect on the system. A. Handheld Remote – Change the value of H (Minimum Signal Adjustment) at the PLCU using the handheld remote (Ref pages 27). B. POT Adjustment – Tune the antenna coils by adjusting the potentiometers on the transmitter board located inside the pedestal base (Ref page 12).                                     A. Handheld Remote Control BoxReceiver Board in Control Box H1H2 B. Pot Adjustment Loop Coil or Figure-8 Coil Transmitter Board POT 1POT 2Pedestal  Antenna Coil Set Loop Coil or Figure-8 Coil Pedestal Connected to RXA & RXB Affected Pedestal Pedestal Connected to RXA & RXB Note:  Because sub-ports RXA/RXB are mapped into Channel 1 (H1 controlled) andRXC/RXD are mapped into Channel 2 (H2 controlled), adjustment of either H1 or H2will affect both of the mapped sub-ports (RXA/RXB or RXC/RXD), thus affecting thepedestal(s) connected to the mapped sub-ports.
Premier Guard Installation Manual  34                       The tuning POTs only affect a single pedestal. Depending on the specific model of Premier or Plus Line product, the specific POT (1 or 2) will affect a different antenna coil set:  a.  POT 1 corresponds to the Figure-8 Coil (vertical orientation) and POT 2 corresponds to the Loop Coil (horizontal orientation); -- or -- b.  POT 1 corresponds to the Loop Coil and POT 2 corresponds to the Figure-8 Coil. c.  POT 1 corresponds to the Loop Coil and POT 2 corresponds to ferrite rod antennas.   Note: “Figure-8” and “Loop” are names that identify the two antenna coils inside the pedestal. The Figure-8 Antenna Coil detects vertical orientation signals and the Loop Antenna Coil detects horizontal orientation signals.      ***            Antenna Socket 1 Antenna Socket 2 POT 1POT 2
