1 INTRODUCTION
This manual describes the Perimeter Surveillance Radar (PSR) system operation. The Operator Manual is intended for an audience of technically qualified personnel. For installation and configuration of the radar system, or for more advanced functions, please refer to the installation manual of your specific radar.
Note
Please note that the generic product name “radar” is used throughout this manual for ease of reading. The given information is valid for products Ranger R1, R2, R3, R3D, R5, R5D, R4SS-X, R6SS-X, R8SS-X and R20SS unless noted otherwise. Also, the -X in R4SS-X, R6SS-X and R8SS-X refers to the 3 possible variants of each radar, for example R6SS-X can refer to R6SS, R6SS-U or R6SS-3D.
1.1 SAFETY ISSUES
This equipment generates Radio Frequency energy and is intended for outdoor installations only. Based on limits specified by the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) on Radio Frequency (RF) Emissions, findings from tests conducted conclude that the R1, R2, R3, R3D, R5, R5D, R4SS-X, R6SS-X, R8SS-X and R20SS do not represent any safety hazards and are therefore safe for human exposure, provided the following conditions are met:
Caution!
The installation must provide a separation distance from all persons and must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antennas or transmitters. This safety distance complies with the FCC Limits for Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) for general population / uncontrolled exposure.

2.2.4 Regular Scan Mode Change (applies only to R4SS-X, R6SS-X, R8SS-X and R20SS radars)
When equipped with a pan/tilt positioner, the R4SS-X, R6SS-X, R8SS-X and R20SS supports 3 different regular scan modes: fixed, continuous and alternating. In order to access those modes, the radar must first be configured to activate the pan/tilt positioner. The parameter that enables the pan/tilt positioner is called "Moving_base_config" (see Figure 11). Please refer to section 2.2.10 for instructions on how to modify a configuration parameter.

2.2.4.2 Continuous Mode
This mode is used to continually scan the radar between two fixed positions in azimuth and tilt angles. The radar azimuth pan speed can also be configured. To enable a continuous rotation, the az_1 and az_2 angles should be set to 0 and 360 respectively. In that case, the tilt angle tilt_1 only will be used.

2.2.4.3 Alternating Mode
This mode is used to sequentially alternate between up to 5 fixed sectors in azimuth and tilt angles. When covering a 360° area around the radar, it is recommended to use either one of the following:
To optimize coverage: use 5 sectors spaced at 72° intervals, with a minimum duration of 12
seconds per sector
To minimize scan time: use 4 sectors spaced at 90° intervals, with a duration of 11 seconds
per sector

2.2.5 Editing Zones
The PSR Radar System supports two (2) types of zones: Contact and Intrusion Zones.
2.2.5.1 Contact Zones
A Contact Zone is an area where low-level radar detections are processed to identify potential targets. An exclusive contact zone is a zone in which processing of low-level radar detections is inhibited. The radar uses the contact zones to establish the detection thresholds. FLIR Radars recommends the use of the default configuration (no contact zone defined). In this case the entire radar coverage area will be used.
If a particular area is generating false or unwanted targets, such as a highway with automobile traffic, a wind turbine, etc., it may be desirable to establish one (1) or more contact zones that include all areas to be monitered except the problematic ones. Alternatively, you can establish only exclusive contact zones covering the problematic areas.
2.2.5.2 Intrusion Zones
An Intrusion Zone is an area where the targets are considered potential threats and classified as intruders. An exclusive intrusion zone is an area in which classification of targets as intruders is prevented. Since intruders trigger alerts (red circle in radar icon – see above) and are sent out through XML, it is important to carefully define intrusion zones to minimize nuisance alarms. In order to provide prompt detection of intruders, it is very important that all intrusion zones be completely contained in contact zones with a sufficient gap (typically > 100 m).
To prevent a particular area from generating false or unwanted intruders, such as a private road within the surveillance area, a main entrance in a building, etc. either:
1. Establish intrusion zone so as not to include that area, or
2. Establish an exclusive intrusion zone on that area.
