1.
With radomes removed, apply power to the Transmitter and Receiver.
2.
Be sure the identical modulation frequency, channel A through F, is being used on the Transmitter and
Receiver in Free Running mode or modulation terminals are connected in Tethered mode.
3.
Check for transmitter and receiver operation by monitoring the “POWER” LED on transmitter circuit
board and “PULSE” LED. The LED’s must be illuminated.
4.
Visually aim the Transmitter and Receiver for “bore-sight” alignment. Aim the transmitter and receiver
at each other. Make sure the transmitter and receiver are parallel and perpendicular to the ground plane
that is being secured.
5.
On the Receiver, voltmeter connected to JP1 “ALIGNMENT VOLTAGE” + and - with meter range set
to 1-5VDC can be used to align the link. The alignment can also be done using the UIST II software
program which is recommended.
6.
Swivel Receiver up and down and side to side, to obtain maximum meter reading. Tighten locking nut
on mounting bracket to secure sensor in this position.
7.
Raise or lower mounting height of receiver and/or transmitter as required to obtain maximum meter
reading.
8.
Swivel Transmitter up and down and side to side, to obtain maximum meter reading. Tighten locking
nut on mounting bracket to secure sensor in this position. The minimum alignment voltage for the
MicroWave 330 is 0.5VDC. Although this is the minimum voltage, proper alignment and mounting
height will typically be greater. The peak alignment voltage should range between 0.5 and 5 VDC
depending upon link distance. The further apart the units the smaller the alignment voltage.
9.
Perform site requirement tests (walk, run, crawl, etc) to determine detection pattern, while monitoring
alarm indication by means of the red “Alarm” LED or by the Sonalert on the receiver.
10.
Adjust detection parameters using the UIST II until site requirements are obtained. Adjust the sensitivity
to optimize the sensor performance to meet detection requirements at the lowest setting possible.
11.
Replace radomes using all six screws.
10.0 Preventive Maintenance
MicroWave 330 requires no calibration other than alignment and sensitivity adjustment during installation. To
maintain a trouble free system the following is recommended:
1.
Wax the radomes every 3 to 6 months using a standard automotive wax. (At maximum security
installations, where detection of prone crawling targets is required, wax once a month.)
2.
Keep the isolation area clean and free of tall grass, weeds, debris, washouts and obstructions.
3.
Upon initial installation, establish a zone data chart. Record input supply voltage, zone distance,
transmitter/receiver mounting height, alignment voltage, modulation channel, sensitivity setting, and
battery voltages.
4.
If standby batteries are used, they should be functionally tested every three months.
