FlexPI Product Guide
Setting the climb Time and Window
If the security regulations at your facility mandate a specific climb Time and Window, then adjust
the settings accordingly and monitor the system for nuisance alarms. To customize these
parameters for your site, set the climb Time based on the estimated period of time that it would
take an intruder to gain access to the protected area or facility. Be sure to set the climb Time high
enough to prevent nuisance alarms, but low enough to ensure an intruder cannot gain access to
the site. Set the time Window to include the possibility that an intruder might pause and wait during
an attempted break-in.
Onboard Switch calibration
FlexPI includes five onboard switches that are used to setup and adjust the processor’s detection
parameters, gain, and frequency response filters.
illustrates the switches and the switch
settings. The label on the inside of the enclosure cover also shows the switch settings.
CAUTION
If the Cable Gain is adjusted it will also affect the Cut Alarm Settings.
If the Cut Alarm parameters have already been set, retest, and if
required, adjust the Cut Alarm parameters after changing the Cable
Gain setting.
Note
For settings available via the UCM that are not adjustable using the
onboard switches, the default values listed in the UCM apply.
