Ed. 1.2  Installation Handbook  Page 2 of 36 ERMO 482X3 PRO  1 DESCRIPTION 1.1  Description The ERMO 482X3 PRO equipment is a digital microwave barrier of CIAS, for internal and external volumetric protection. Such a system can detect the presence of somebody or something moving within the sensitive field present between a transmitter (Tx) and a receiver (Rx). The received signal is processed in digital way and analysed with “Fuzzy” logic in order to obtain maximum performances and a minimum of false alarm rate. The ERMO 482X3 PRO equipment is available with the following field range:    -   ERMO 482X3 PRO 050       Range   50 meters   -   ERMO 482X3 PRO 080       Range   80 meters   -   ERMO 482X3 PRO 120       Range 120 meters   -   ERMO 482X3 PRO 200       Range 200 meters   -   ERMO 482X3 PRO 250       Range 250 meters   -   ERMO 482X3 PRO 500       Range 500 meters

  CIAS Elettronica S.r.l.    Ed. 1.2  Installation Handbook  Page 4 of 36 ERMO 482X3 PRO 2 INSTALLATION 2.1  Preliminary Information  Due  to  the  various  types  of  ERMO  482X3  PRO  barrier,  there  are  some  different  kinds  of installation and fixing unit types related to user requirements. 2.2  Number of Sections Having to design protection with volumetric barriers of a closed perimeter, besides having to split the perimeter within a certain number of sections that take into account the management need of the entire plant, it must be remembered that it is always preferable to install an even number of sections. This consideration is bound to the fact that the likely reciprocal interferences between adjacent sections are annulled should at the vertices ( cross ) of the polygon, resulting from the installation  of  the  various  sections,  be  installed  two  equipment  with  the  same  name,  two transmitters or two receivers. It is evident that this might occur only if the number of sections is even.  Should  it  not  be  possible  to  have  an  even  number  of  sections  then  some  careful considerations must be made on interferences that might likely occur in order to find the vertex point where retained best to place the transmitter near the receiver. The following pictures show some typical cases for which the most correct solution is given (see figure 1).  CORRECT CORRECTWRONG WRONGCORRECT CORRECT Figure 1
  CIAS Elettronica S.r.l.    Ed. 1.2  Installation Handbook  Page 5 of 36 ERMO 482X3 PRO 2.3  Ground conditions  It is inadvisable to install the equipment along sections with tall grass (more than 10 cm), ponds, longitudinal waterways, and all those types of grounds whose structure is rapidly mutable. 2.4  Presence of Obstacles   The fences, are generally metallic therefore highly reflecting hence causing various problems, for this reasons some precautions are suggested: -  first of all, make sure that the fence has been properly fixed in order that the wind does not move; -  if it is possible the microwave beam should not be placed in parallel to a metallic fence, is necessary to create a corner with it;  -  metal fences placed behind the equipment night cause distortions to the sensitive beam especially, and  might  cause movement  detection in unexpected spots, with subsequent likely generation of false alarms; -  in case of Mw barrier should be installed in a corridor between two metallic fences, the width of the corridor should be not less to 5 m; if less contact CIAS technical assistance Along the section, within the area of the protection field, are allowed pipes, poles or similar (e.g., lamp  posts)  as  long  as  their  dimensions,  with  respect  to  the  protection  beam,  are  not  too excessive. The trees, hedges, bushes in general, need very great attention if near or within the protection beams. These obstacles vary in size and position, in fact they grow and they can be moved by the wind. Therefore, it is absolutely inadvisable to tolerate the presence of the cited obstacles within the protection sections.   Figure 2  It is possible to tolerate the presence of these elements near the protection sections only if their growth  is  limited  through  routine  maintenance,  and  if  their  movement  is  stopped  through containment  barriers.  Various  Obstacles  might  be  present  along  the  protection  sections.  For them  there  is  the  need  to  make  the  same  considerations  and  take  the  same  necessary precautions  adopted  for  the  above  cases.  This  cause  of  Dead  zones  not  protected  and Hypersensitive zones which cause false alarm.

Ed. 1.2  Installation Handbook  Page 6 of 36 ERMO 482X3 PRO 2.5  Amplitude of the Sensitive Beam   The amplitude of the Sensitive Beam depends on the distance between the transmitter and the receiver, on the antenna type and on the sensitivity adjustment set. The figures below state the diameter half-way of the sensitive beam section (based on the length of the section) in case of maximum and minimum sensitivity (see next figures).   123456789105 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50Half rangesensitive zonediameter [m]Range [m]MaximumsensitivityMinimumsensitivity Figure 3  Diameter of sensitive beam  at the half-section length (ERMO 482X3 PRO 50)  20 40 60 80 100 120 140 160 180 2002468101214161820 Half rangesensitive zonediameter [m]Range [m]MaximumsensitivityMinimumsensitivity  Figure 4 Diameter of sensitive beam at the half-section length (ERMO 482X3 PRO 80-120-200)

The higher the pre-alarm threshold the lower the sensitivity, and vice versa. It’s important to keep in mind that the pre-alarm threshold determines the beginning of the intelligent analysis: all signals below this threshold, are considered noise, and anyway of low importance. All the signals higher this threshold are analyzed following Fuzzy rules. The prealarm and alarm thresholds, are settable both with software WAVE-TEST2 and with  rotary  switches  on  board  on  each  receiver.  Default  setting  corresponds  to  a medium sensitivity fightable for most of the cases.
  CIAS Elettronica S.r.l.    Ed. 1.2  Installation Handbook  Page 8 of 36 ERMO 482X3 PRO 2.6  Length of the Dead Zones near the equipment  The length of the Dead Zones near the equipment is based on the distance of the equipment from ground, on the sensitivity set on the receiver and on the type of antenna used. With regard to the considerations stated above, and based on plant requirements, the equipment must be installed at a certain height from ground. In mean plant the height must be 80 cm. from the ground and the centre of the equipment  (90cm  for 50-250-500m barriers). With medium sensitivity setting, the suggested crossing overlap is 5m., for the 80-120-200m. 12,5m for 250-500m barriers versions and 3,5m. for the 50m. version.  203010405060708090100203010405060708090100123 4 5 67 8 9 10Antenna centreheight  fromground [cm]Dead Zonelenght [m]Maximumsensitivity Minimumsensitivity Figure 6  ERMO 482X3 PRO 50: Dead zone length near the equipment versus installation height.   203010405060708090100203010405060708090100123 4 5 67 8 9 10Antenna centreheight  fromground [cm]Dead Zonelenght [m]Maximumsensitivity Minimumsensitivity Figure 7  ERMO 482X3 PRO 80-120-200: Dead zone length near the equipment versus            installation height.

  CIAS Elettronica S.r.l.    Ed. 1.2  Installation Handbook  Page 10 of 36 ERMO 482X3 PRO  2.8  Microwave working plane The  working  plane  is  the  surface  which  supports  the  microwave  beam,  granting  the  proper functioning of the barrier.     Distance  between  the  center  of  the  antenna  and  the  working  plane  is  called  height  of  the barrier and must be chosen depending on the type of ground surface (asphalt, concrete, self-locking, grass, etc.).  •  The working plane MUST necessarily be one. •  Near a wall or metallic fence it could happen that the microwave "consider" two planes, i.e. the wall/fence and the ground.  •  The correct height is obtained through the incorporated alignment tools.    •  Microwave field stability is required.  1° Example      Pole on the same level of microwave working plane    This  is  the  simplest  solution  for  installation,  because  the  working  plane  is  flat  and  the poles are at the same height.   2° Example (on a flowerbed or on a sidewalk)      Pole on a different level from the microwave working plane    The  head  is  mounted  on  a  flowerbed  at  a  higher  level  to  facilitate,  for  example,  the installation of a pole. The microwave lobe will then work on a different working plane.
  CIAS Elettronica S.r.l.    Ed. 1.2  Installation Handbook  Page 11 of 36 ERMO 482X3 PRO  3° Example (changing slope)      Pole on a different level from the microwave working plane      The head is installed on a changing slope or a valley; the microwave lobe will then work on a different working plane.   4° Example (changing slope, suggested installation)     Pole on a different level from the working plane, for installation on not-aligned working planes.       Tx1 is on a different working plane from Rx1 placed instead on the working plane of barrier 2.   5° Example (changing slope, suggested installation)      Pole on a different level from the working plane, for installation on not-aligned working planes.      Tx1 is on a different working plane from Rx1 placed instead on the working plane of  barrier 2.   6° Example (changing slope, installation not suggested)      Pole on a different level from the working plane, for installation on not-aligned working planes.      You can use a single pole, but resulting dead zones must be protected with two sensors.
  CIAS Elettronica S.r.l.    Ed. 1.2  Installation Handbook  Page 12 of 36 ERMO 482X3 PRO  7° Example (Change of slope in steps, not aligned working planes)    Barrier 1 is located on a different working plane than barrier 2. In this case, since the change of slope is a step, you must install two separate barriers and consider two different working planes, always protecting dead zones resulting between Rx1 and Rx2 with two additional sensors.   8° Example (Strong dip in the ground)        The strong dip in the ground creates a considerable dead zone that has be protected with an additional sensor.
  CIAS Elettronica S.r.l.    Ed. 1.2  Installation Handbook  Page 13 of 36 ERMO 482X3 PRO 2.9  Wall installation  Besides perimeter protection, another possible application for MW barriers is wall installation for protection  of  windows,  doors,  front  gates,  driveways  to  villas,  warehouses,  and  in  general  all those kind of facilities or facades for which that kind of protection is suitable.     The facade/wall becomes the working plane for the barrier: take care to have just one working plane.     Take care of the following before installation:   • Use the right bracket according to distance • Choose the right height according to kind of application (protection of windows or walls) • Place the barrier taking into consideration the volume of its beam and relevant dead zone • Check if the surface of the wall is free or with any obstacles (columns, drainpipes, gutters, window sills or else) • Check on vegetation along the whole segment  We  recommend  to  contact  CIAS  SERVICE.  We’ll  be  glad  to  provide  you  all  required support and the relevant guide for wall installation.

The connection between the transformer and the 230 V~  mains will be as that of the previous one.The power supply  cables  connecting  transformer  with  equipment,  must  be  of  shielded  type  with  shield connected to ground. The connection between unit and the power supply must be realised with cables of correct section, the cables section must be computed keeping in account connection length and unit current absorption. For the power supply connection (Alternating Current ) 19V~, to make connect term 1/3 on the terminal strep MS6 (for Tx circuit) or MS4 (for Rx circuit).   The protection fuse is F2 and it is a 1.85 A resettable fuse. Use only safety transformers with the following characteristics: •  primary voltage:    230 V~ •  secondary voltage    19 V~ •  minimum power    30 VA  Remark: use only safety transformers (example Certified EN 60950)  Make sure to connect the body of the transformer to hearth tap.  The transformer connection to the main (230 V~), must be carried out through      one circuit breaker having the following characteristics: •  bipolar with minimum distance between contacts equal to 3 mm •  provided in the fix part of cabling •  easily accessible However laws and standards concerning installations of devices permanently connected to the main (230 V~), must be strictly respected (in Italy Law 46/90 and standard CEI 64-8).  Remark: if the barrier power supply is an external dc voltage (13,8V ), to avoid the activation of the fault contact, due to main missing for more than 3 hours, it’s necessary to connect the positive incoming voltage (13,8V ), also to the terminal 1 or 3 of the terminal block MS6 on transmitter or terminal block MS4 for receiver PCB.  3.2.2 Connection of stand-by Battery Into  each  equipment  heads  there  is  the  housing  for  an  optional  rechargeable  back-up  lead Battery 12 V  – 2 Ah (optional). The battery is charged by the internal power supply, through the red and black faston and wires connected to the terminals 1 and 2 of the terminal block MS5 of the  Rx  and  Tx  circuit.  The  provided  protection  fuse  (against  overload  and/or  battery  polarity inversion) is a 1.1 A resettable fuse. The back-up lead battery allows to the barrier head (TX or RX), at least 12 hours of perfect working, in case of mains missing.  Remark 1: package, of the optional standby battery, must have a flame class equal or better than HB     (UL 94 Standard). We recommend to use quality batteries and programmed maintenance every six months. Remark 2: both  the  Tx  and Rx boards have an  automatic control of  the  standby battery  status. This check takes place every Monday at 8:30 am for both boards but, in the Tx, only if the standby battery  is  present  while in the RX  you can  enable or disable it  through  the function switch SW1. At the end of the test, if the battery should be exhausted, it will no longer be recharged.

These Relays are static with dry contacts normally closed. By means of these contacts it’s possible to communicate to the control panel the following conditions:  • ALARM, TAMPER, FAULT  There are also 3 inputs to activate the following functions: • Test (TX and RX) • Stand-by (TX and RX) • Synchronism (only TX)  The output contacts for alarm, tamper and fault, both on transmitter and receiver, are made by Static Relays with maximum current of 100 mA.  Remark:  in closed condition the resistance of these contact is about 40 ohm.   The connections to control panel must be made by means of shielded cables.   The relays are activated for the following reasons:  - ALARM RELAYS  1-  Stopped target alarm on receiver ( Remark1 ) 2-  Intrusion alarm on receiver  3-  Receiver masking condition alarm 4-  Alarm of external detector connected at Auxiliary Balanced Line 5-  Successful result of test procedure operation on receiver 6-  Insufficient received signal (V RAG > 5,5V)  7-  Channel alarm ( Remark2 ) - TAMPER RELAYS  1- Cover removing (radome) (TX and RX) 2- Tilt Bulb position (TX and RX) 3- Tampering of external detector connected at Auxiliary Balanced Line 4- Cut of Auxiliary Balanced Line 5- Short circuit of Auxiliary Balanced Line. - FAULT RELAYS 1- Battery voltage low (< +11V ) 2- Battery voltage high (> +14.8V ) 3- Temperature low (< -35°C internal) 4- Temperature high (> +75°C internal)  5- Fault of external detector connected at Auxiliary Balanced Line 6- RF (radio frequency) or BF (low frequency) Oscillator fault on Transmitter  7- Mains missing or power supply fault (more then 3 hours)  Remark  1: if  the  intrusion  signal,  after  overcoming  the  pre-alarm  threshold,  stays  for  40  sec between pre-alarm  and  alarm  threshold,  the  barrier  gives  a  “Stopped target alarm” event, and the alarm output is activate (the contact become opened).  Remark 2:  if transmitter is set-up on channel F, the alarm won’t be given.

Ed. 1.2  Installation Handbook  Page 22 of 36 ERMO 482X3 PRO  3.3.2  Synchronism connection For the Synchronism operation between two Transmitters, it is necessary to interconnect the terminals 2 “SYNC” and  1 “GND” of terminal block MS1 of both Transmitters.  It is also necessary to select one Transmitter as “Master” and the other as “Slave”, by means of jumper Jp1. •  Jp1 = “IN” position, the terminal 1 of MS1 is the input for an external synchronism signal, so the Transmitter is “Slave”. •  Jp1  =  “OUT”  position,  the  terminal  1  of  MS1  is  the  output  for  the  synchronism  signal internally produced, so the Transmitter is “Master”   Remark: the cable connecting the two transmitters, must be as short as possible and not more than 10 meters. If cables longer than 10 meters are required, it is necessary to use the synchronism repetition circuit mod. SYNC 01.  3.3.3 Stand-by connection For the Stand-by function activation, it is necessary connect to ground the terminal 7  “STBY” of MS1 terminal block for the receiver circuit and connect to ground the terminal 7  “STBY” of MS2 terminal block for the transmitter circuit.  Remark:  the  Stand-by  operation,  doesn’t  inhibit  the  barrier  functionality,  but  deactivate  the record of events into “historical file” (TX and RX) and in the monitor file (RX).  3.3.4 Test connection  The  Test  function  will be  activated  connecting to  ground  the terminal  8 “TEST”  of  the terminal block MS2 on Transmitter circuit. If the test procedure is successful done, the alarm relays on Receiver circuit will be activated later 10 second.  Remark:  for high risk protection it’s necessary a Periodic Test for the  equipments. Performing tests, the control panel will be able to detect tamper action.    3.3.5 Balanced Line connection Either on transmitter and receiver PCB is provided a Balanced input were it’s possible to connect an  external  detector  and  manage  its  activity  trough  each  head  (TX  or  RX).  To  activate  this function on the TX PCB, it’s necessary to open Jp4 tinny jumper. To activate this function on the RX  PCB,  it’s  necessary  to  end  the  alignment  procedure,  leaving  the  function  selector SW1 in position  F.  The  balanced  inputs  are  provided  at  terminals  10  (ING) and  9 (GND)  on  terminal block MS2 of the transmitter PCB, and MS1 of the receiver PCB. By these inputs it’s possible to manage the following conditions of external detectors: •  rest condition of external detector •  alarm condition of external detector •  tamper condition of external detector •  fault condition of external detector
  CIAS Elettronica S.r.l.

For longer distances use one or more interface Regenerators (BUS REP). The way of laying down the cable must be of BUS type, and the derivations for units connection as short as possible. It is possible to lay down the cable in different manner: full stellar; mixed, stellar and BUS type, using Repeaters / Regenerators and interface multipliers BUS REP (see figures pag.62). The total number of units (Tx and Rx) that can be connected to the line are 32, for an higher number of units, it is necessary the use of one or more line regenerator RS 485, this is true also in case of cable length lower than 1200 metres. Screen connection continuity must be guaranteed to properly protect the cited line from induced noise. To this concern the screen will have to be GROUNDED only in one point, i.e., near the power supply unit. The power supply voltage to the RS485 / RS 232 interface converter must be delivered by a local power supply unit, which will have to be placed near the converter proper for the central COM-BS connection, the serial line coming from the barriers can be used directly without any conversion.

This  is  a  very  useful  system  both  for  installation  and  periodical maintenance.  4.1.1 Transmitter Setting-up   To remove the radome unscrew the 6 screws until they turn loose, then release them out gently without remove them completely. Rotate the radome anticlockwise (about 20°) and release it. To close the MW head, fit the radome to it keeping the central logo rotated 20° anticlockwise. Rotate the radome clockwise till the central logo is correctly positioned and then tight the 6 screws. •  Check the a.c. power voltage (19 V~) or d.c. (24 V ) at terminals 1 and 3 on terminal block MS6 (Fig. 9). •  Disconnect  the  battery  and  check  on  the  “faston”  the  d.c.  power  supply  voltage  presence (13.6V ). •  Reconnect the “faston” to the battery paying attention to the polarity: Red wire (terminal 1 of MS5) to battery positive terminal Black wire (terminal 2 of MS5) to battery negative terminal.  Remark: any battery polarity reversal, blows the relative fuse (F3). The equipment will operate properly after having correctly inserted the “faston”.  • Select, one of the 16 modulation channel available, by the hexadecimal switch (within 0 and F).  To  increase  the  resistance  to  tampering  actions,  it  is  a  good  rule  to  preset  different channels  for  the  different  barriers  installed  in  the  same  site.  The  use  of  different  channel doesn’t affect the detection ability of the barrier. By setting up the rotator switch on F Channel, if condition of channel alarm occurs it will not generate any alarm event.  Remark: if one RX receives MW signal from its own transmitter and from another interfering transmitter (for example due to reflections or any other field reason), it is necessary to synchronize the two transmitters, selecting one as Master and the other as Slave. In this case the modulation channel, for the slave transmitter, is the same selected on the Master regardless its own selection.  • It‘s possible to address each transmitter head in two ways:  1) Local numbering– no change possible from remote. Assigning (writing) the barrier number: •  Select a number from 1 to 99 on the proper decimal switches SW2 (units) and SW3 (tens). The value 00 means barrier 100.  If decimal switches SW2 (units) and SW3 (tens) should be positioned on 00, for the first time it’s necessary to push the button S1 after setting up a barrier number different from 00. Reading the barrier number: • It’s enough to read the setting up of rotary switches SW2 and SW3.
  CIAS Elettronica S.r.l.    Ed. 1.2  Installation Handbook  Page 27 of 36 ERMO 482X3 PRO  2) Assigning the barrier number locally, with possibility of changing from remote. Writing the barrier number:  • Rotate  the  decimal switch SW2 on position 0, rotate the  decimal switch SW3 on position 0. •  Push the button S1. •  Set a new value (from 1 to 99) means of the two switches SW2 (units) and SW3 (tens),  •  Close the micro switch “Tamper”. In this phase leds of  Fault (D8) and Tamper (D9) turn on for 3 seconds, confirming the  acquisition of the new value, after that they will turn off for 3 seconds, to go back at their normal functioning. Open up the micro switch “Tamper” NB:if you wish to prevent possibility of changes from remote of number of barrier number set, push S1 Reset button.  Reading the barrier number:  •  Rotate the decimal switch SW2 on position 0, rotate the decimal switch SW3 on position 0. •  Press and then release the S1reset button,  •  Rotate the decimal switch SW2 (units) until the green led D9 becomes on •  Rotate the decimal switch SW3 (tens) until the green led D8 becomes on The reading values will be included between 01 and 99 and will correspond to the actual barrier number.   NB: in case you should decide NOT to change the number just visualized, it’s necessary to close the radome without changing position of decimal switches SW2 and SW3.  •   Prepare one of the 16 modulation channels available turning the hexadecimal rotary switch "SW1" in a position between 0 and F. The use of a modulation channel rather than another does  not  alter  the  operation  of  the  barrier,  however,  it  is  good  practice  prepare  different channels for different barriers of a plant, in order to increase sabotage qualities. By setting the switch on channel F, if the barrier is in channel alarm condition it would not generate the alarm event. Remark. potentially interfering barriers, due the MW signal of one which can be intercepted on the other (i.e. for installation reasons), it will be necessary to synchronize the transmitters by ensuring that one (Master) provide to the other (slave) the synchronization signal. In this case the modulation frequency of the transmitter slave does not depend on the position of its switch, but only by the synchronization signal.  •  Close the radome. To do this operation place the Radome near the back cover, keeping the central logo rotated anticlockwise of 20°. Before to close the head ensure that the tilt switch is vertically positioned. Then fit the front cover to the back cover and rotate it clockwise until the central logo will be correctly positioned and tighten the screws.

The equipment will operate properly after having correctly inserted the “faston”.  •  To  make  the barrier  alignment  and parameters  setting of the  barrier  using  the  built in  tool, make a preliminary visual mechanical alignment see the following instructions:  a. Be sure that the tamper switch is activated (Open circuit)   b. Select by the “function switch” SW1 position 1. The electronic alignment phase is activated.   c. Push  S2  button.  This  action  adjust  the  signal  level  and  freeze,  after  some  seconds,  the Automatic Gain Control. In that condition red leds D13 and D12 will be ON and green leds D6, D 7, D8 will be OFF, and the buzzer BZ1 will produce a pulsed sound, this means that the field signal has reached the proper working level.   d. Unscrew lightly the bracket screws and move the horizontal alignment of the receiver, looking for the maximum received signal.  e. If, during the alignment, one or more green leds become ON means that the received signal level is increased compared with the previous. In this case also the pulse frequency of the sound produced by the on board buzzer, increase. Push again the button S2 and when the green leds become OFF (proper working level), move horizontally in the same direction.  If during the movement for the alignment, instead of become ON the green leds, become OFF one o more red leds, and the pulse frequency of the sound produced by the buzzer, decrease, means  that  the  received  signal  level  is  decreased  compared  with  the  previous,  so  it  is necessary to move back in the other horizontal direction and look for a better received signal. If there is not a new maximum level, means that the present horizontal alignment is the best.  f.  Unscrew  lightly  the  bracket  screws  of  the  transmitter  and  move  the  horizontal  alignment, looking for the maximum received signal on the receiver head like indicated in the previous point “e”.  g. Once the best alignment is reached (maximum signal  available), screw strongly the bracket screws, both on transmitter and receiver, to block the horizontal movement.   h. Unblock the vertical movement of the receiver and move it slightly upward. Push S3 button and  then  move  the  head  downward  looking  for  the  maximum  signal  like  indicated  in  the previous point “e”.
  CIAS Elettronica S.r.l.    Ed. 1.2  Installation Handbook  Page 29 of 36 ERMO 482X3 PRO  i.  Unblock the vertical movement of the transmitter and repeat the operation described for the receiver  vertical  alignment.  Once  the  best  vertical  alignment  is  reached  (maximum  signal available), block the vertical movement both on transmitter and receiver.  j. Select  by  the  “function  switch”  SW1  position  2.  The  acquisition,  of  the  installation  values, phase is activated. The installation values are the AGC voltage (V RAG) and the modulation channel number. To complete the phase it is necessary to  be sure that nothing change the MW  field  state  (for  example  the  installer  himself),  then  push  the  button  S2  and  wait  few seconds. When only the three green leds become ON, the phase is successfully completed. If also the two red leds become ON means that the barrier will works but the signal received was bed (too much noise or something interfering in the MW field). Push again the button S2 been sure  that  nothing interferes.  If  only  the  three red leds become  ON the phase  is completely aborted,  it is necessary to repeat the alignment phase, starting  from  the  previous  point  “e”, being sure that no obstacles are present in the MW field. k. Select by the “function switch” SW1 position 3. The prealarm thresholds adjusting phase is activated.  The  two  prealarm  thresholds  are  set  under  and  over  the  rest  field  value.  The analysis process begin when the field value, overcomes one of them. If the field value remain between the prealarm and the alarm threshold continuously for about 40 seconds, a prealarm event is generated and the alarm relay is activated. To read the present prealarm threshold value operate as follow: •  Rotate decimal switch SW3 (tens column) until the first red led (D13) becomes ON. •  Rotate decimal switch SW2 (units column) until the second red led (D12) becomes ON.           The reading values will be included between 05 and 80 (default value 15)  Decreasing the threshold value the sensitivity increase like the beam dimension.  To modify the present value increasing the sensitivity it is necessary to set, by means of the two switches SW3 and SW2 a lower value and then push the button S2. To decrease the sensitivity, it is necessary to set by means of the two switches SW3 and SW2, a higher value and then push the button S2. l. Select by the “function switch” SW1 position 4. The alarm thresholds adjusting phase and the walk test phase are activated. The two alarm thresholds are set under and over the rest field  value.  They  are  higher  compared  with  the  corresponding  prealarm  threshold,  and  are used to evaluate, at the end of the analysis process, if the field value change is enough to generate an alarm event.  To read the present alarm threshold value operate as follow: •  Rotate decimal switch SW3 (tens column) until the first red led (D13) becomes ON. •  Rotate decimal switch SW2 (units column) until the second red led (D12) becomes ON.           The reading values will be included between 05 and 80 (default value 30) Decreasing the threshold value the sensitivity increase like the beam dimension.  To modify the present value increasing the sensitivity it is necessary to set, by means of the two switches SW3 and SW2, a lower value and then push the  button S2. To decrease the sensitivity, it is necessary to set, by means of the two switches SW3 and SW2, a higher value and then push the button S2. During this phase (SW1 position 4) it is also possible to make the walk test. The barrier  works using the present thresholds, and any  change in MW field strength received (for example due to an intruder moving in the sensible beam), causes the activation  of  a  pulsed  sound  produced  by  the  on  board  buzzer.  The  pulse  frequency  is proportional  to  the  level  change  of  the  received  microwave  signal.  If  the  pulse  frequency increases it means that, the level change of the received microwave signal, is increased and therefore, it means, that  the intruder is penetrated, deeply, in the protection beam. If at the end of the analysis process, an alarm event is generated, the sound of the buzzer become continuous (not pulsed). This allow to check the actual dimension of the protection beam an also  to  verify  if  something  movable  in  the  protected  area,  like  not  well  fixed  fences,  can produce some trouble.
  CIAS Elettronica S.r.l.    Ed. 1.2  Installation Handbook  Page 30 of 36 ERMO 482X3 PRO  m.  Select by the “function switch” SW1 position 5. The masking thresholds adjusting phase is activated. The two masking thresholds are set under and over the  installation absolute field value (VRAG) memorized during the phase 2 (see previous point j). They are used to check if the changes of the absolute microwave field received are so large to decrease or cancel the detection  ability of  the barrier.  A  thick  layer  of snow can  produce  this kind of changes, but someone can produce them intentionally, in order to mask the receiver.   To read the present masking threshold value operate as follow: •  Rotate decimal switch SW3 (tens column) until the first red led (D13) becomes ON. • Rotate decimal switch SW2 (units column) until the second red led (D12) becomes ON.           The reading values will be included between 05 and 80 (default value 60) Decreasing  the  threshold  value  the  sensitivity  of  the  anti-masking  evaluation  increase.  To modify the present value increasing the sensitivity (smaller changes produce masking alarm) it is necessary to set, by means of the two switches SW3 and SW2, a lower value and then push the button S2. To decrease the sensitivity (bigger changes produce masking alarm), it is necessary to set, by the two switches SW3 and SW2, a higher value and then push the button S2.   n. Select  by  the  “function  switch”  SW1 position 6.  The higher prealarm  threshold adjusting phase is activated. During the phase k the two prealarm thresholds are positioned at the same value.  Increasing  the  value  of  the  higher  prealarm  threshold,  it  is  possible  to  activate  the Fuzzy Side  Target Discrimination  (FSTD),  system.  This  unique  system  present  in  ERMO 482X3  PRO  barriers,  allows  to  filter  or  completely  reject,  signals  generated  from  something moving on both side of protection beam, for example: not well fixed fences or bushes.  The resulting beam has an ellipsoidal shape.      To read the present higher prealarm threshold value operate as follow: •  Rotate decimal switch SW3 (tens column) until the first red led (D13) becomes ON . •  Rotate decimal switch SW2 (units column) until the second red led (D12) becomes ON .           The reading values will be included between 05 and 80 (default value 15), and is the same set at point k.  Increasing the higher prealarm threshold value the side sensitivity decrease like the side beam dimension. To decrease the side sensitivity, it is necessary to set by means of the two switches SW3 and SW2, a higher value and then push the button S2.   o. Select by the “function switch” SW1 position 7. The higher alarm threshold adjusting phase is activated. As at previous point “n”, to activate the Fuzzy Side Target Discrimination (FSTD) system, it is necessary increase also the higher alarm threshold (generally the same quantity changed in previous point)      To read the present higher prealarm threshold value operate as follow: •  Rotate decimal switch SW3 (tens column) until the first red led (D13) becomes ON . •  Rotate decimal switch SW2 (units column) until the second red led (D12) becomes ON .           The reading values will be included between 05 and 80 (default value 30). Increasing the higher alarm threshold value the side sensitivity decrease like the side beam dimension. To decrease the side sensitivity, it is necessary to set by means of the two switches SW3 and SW2, a higher value and then push the button S2.  p. Select  by  the  “function  switch”  SW1  position  8.  The  barrier number  setting  phase  is activated. To communicate by the standard RS 485 serial interface provided on receiver of the ERMO  482X3  PRO  barrier,  it  is  possible  to  select  one  different  barrier  number  for  each receiver installed in the specific site. This allows to communicate through the same bus with the different barriers.
  CIAS Elettronica S.r.l.    Ed. 1.2  Installation Handbook  Page 31 of 36 ERMO 482X3 PRO  To read the present barrier number selected operate as follow: •  Rotate decimal switch SW3 (tens column) until the first red led (D13) becomes ON. •  Rotate decimal switch SW2 (units column) until the second red led (D12) becomes ON.           The reading values will be included between 01 and 99. The value 00 means barrier 100, this is  the  default  value,  used  when  a  fatal  error  occurs  and  the  default  parameters  are automatically used.  To modify the present barrier number it is necessary to set, by means of the two switches SW3 and SW2 a new value and then push the button S2.  q. Select  by  the  “function  switch”  SW1 position 9. The monitor threshold adjusting phase is activated.  The  two  monitor  thresholds  are  set  under  and  over  the  rest  field  value.  They  are necessary to determine the start “save event” phase in the file of the monitor receiver. When one of these two thresholds is exceeded by the variation of the received signal, the recording starts. To read the present monitor threshold value operate as follow: •  Rotate decimal switch SW3 (tens column) until the first red led (D13) becomes ON. •  Rotate decimal switch SW2 (units column) until the second red led (D12) becomes ON.
