d. Sensor location. Beam breaks are IP69 rated and can (but
don’t have to) be positioned in outside/wet environments, these are
best positioned to detect any ‘prior to entry’ movement thus
preventing damage to locks, doors etc., a simple cover will prevent
accidental triggering by birds.
PIR sensors should be positioned so
they cover areas of possible entry whilst avoiding areas of flashing
sunlight which can cause false sensing.
Magnetic Contact sensors
can be fitted to opening hatches and doors, consider the routing of
cable to the contacts.
When using wireless sensors , it is
recommended that they are mounted within 20m of the alarm
control box and that there are no metal bulkheads between it and
the control box
e.
Siren, external LED & external beeper location, to have the
maximum effect in alerting others around that there is an intruder
the siren needs to be positioned so that it is not muted by enclosure
or other sound barriers,
positioned inside an external vent allows
good external sound travel and maximum discomfort to any intruder
whilst restricting access thus preventing disablement of the siren.
A second siren can be fitted (if our high output sirens are used) to
sound inside and out. If other sirens are used they must not draw
more than 1A collectively this would overload and damage the
system, use of a relay would enable the operation of more powerful
sirens. The external LED (used to indicate GSM & GPS Signal) should
be positioned so that it can be easily monitored without the
continuous flashing becoming an annoyance. The external beeper
should be positioned so as it can be heard whilst boarding and
alighting the boat but does not have to be in line of sight so can be
discreetly mounted.
f.
Microphone & Speaker location, will, depending on their
purpose, require mounting discreetly or conveniently.
Consideration should be given to protection from the elements,
back ground noise, intended purpose and ease of use. The system is
not primarily intended to be used as a phone it cannot be used to
dial out (only receive calls), its primary purpose being to listen to on
board activity to confirm if someone is legitimately on board and
inform anyone on board that you are aware of their presence. When
the system is called if a speaker is fitted there will be three rings and
the call will automatically be answered.
