Configuration settings
Before the system is ready to use it must be configured and the parameters must
be set to suit the site requirements. This section provides instructions to
configure the system using the Configuration module.
The Intelli-FLEX system is shipped with factory preamplifier gain preset and
parameter settings that are based on the “average” chain link fence for “typical”
threat level scenarios. In many cases these settings can be used as supplied. If the
fence type varies from the average, or if the threat is perceived as non-typical, the
processor configuration parameters may be changed to accommodate these
differences. These changes can be made using the Configuration module.
This initial calibration procedure must be performed
before the system can be ready for use.
Preamplifier gain setting
The preamplifier gain is set at the factory to give good detection of intrusion
activity on a typical chain link fence, while preventing nuisance alarms caused by
bad weather. The gain setting may be changed if the fence characteristics vary
substantially from that of a typical chain link fence, or if the user requires intruder
response characteristics that vary substantially from a typical installation.
Gain setting procedure - Zone 1
To check and adjust the gain for zone 1 proceed as follows:
1. Connect the Configuration module.
When the Configuration module is first connected,

opened.
2. Press
