The Home Unit, the Transmitter and the STaR Unit are just a few of the unique elements of the Electronic Monitoring System. The monitored individual wears a body secured Transmitter. For effective supervision, the monitored individual is assigned with a personalized curfew schedule and a zone limitation program

(hot zones). The STaR Unit is a mobile monitoring device that reports on locality and infractions, helping to ensure absolute compliance in accordance with the monitored individuals appointed monitoring program. While in the curfew location (e.g. home or hostel), the STaR Unit is placed next to the Home Unit. The Home Unit extends the STaR Units reception capabilities in such a way as to cover the entire curfew location. When leaving the curfew location, the monitored individual must carry the STaR Unit on his or her person. An alert is activated if the Transmitter and the STaR Unit are separated. Once on the move, the STaR Unit automatically acquires a GPS position fix and activates continuous location data collection. The STaR Unit communicates with the monitoring center, via the cellular network, reporting on location and violations. Reporting is based on the monitored individuals assigned program and schedule. 1 2 Getting Started About This Manual The STaR Unit and Transmitter Installation and Operational Guide has been created for the installation expert and is meant as a guide through the STaR Unit & Transmitter installation and operational procedures.
