Figure 18: PIR Alignment on Fenceline
It is important that the PIR curtain is aligned approx 0.5m (2ft) inside the fence when a long range
PIR is used next to a fence line (the previous figure illustrates this). The PIR can be aligned using
previously described methods. Confirm correct alignment, with a walk test performed
immediately adjacent to the fence, ensuring that detection does not occur in the 0.5m (2ft) area
directly next to the fence.
It is important to ensure that the extents of the PIR detection are within the FOV of the camera,
i.e. if a wide angle type PIR is used, the camera FOV must overlap the PIR detection area. To
confirm this, the alarm output status (or the test output using the PIR tester software) of the PIR
should be monitored as a person walk tests the site. Ensure the person remains within the FOV
of the relevant camera.
2.6.3 Instrument Racks and Cablings
There are a number of standard procedures that should be followed while installing any electrical
equipment including a rack mounted Presidium:
• Ensure all local safety regulations regarding installation of electrical equipment are
followed.
• All cables should be routed neatly and held in place using routing trays, channels or ties.
• All cables should be labelled for future reference and the identifiers marked on cabling
diagrams or plans.
• Adequate space should be allocated between all equipment in the rack to provide
ventilation.
Once all equipment has been installed and operating in the rack, the temperature in the rack
should be monitored to check that the equipment is operating within specified limits (operating
range 0°C - 40°C). Even though equipment may be operating within specified limits, reducing the
temperature will increase the operable life of all equipment in the system.
Note: Do not stack Presidium Mini units on each other due to heat transfer between
enclosures.
