The wall and pole for installation can sustain eight times the weight of the Radar and its mounting components. For wall mount, the wall shall be thick enough to install expansion bolts. No large areas of metals or glass objects are within the Radar detection range; otherwise mirrored alarm sites might occur. If the metal or glass object cannot be removed, do not let it face the front side of the Radar during installation. Because radar electromagnetic wave cannot penetrate objects such as buildings, rocks, and glasses, a blind zone might be formed behind these objects. No weed and swaying branch exists within the Radar detection range, and trim regularly if any. No interference devices with strong electromagnetic or periodically rotating objects are near the Radar installation location or within its detection range, such as outdoor air conditioners and wind-driven generators. Make sure that the Radar is installed securely and stably. Swaying will reduce its detection precision, or cause misinformation which influences the normal usage of radar. 2.1.2 Installation Tools and Cables Except for the accessories provided, you need to prepare the following tools and cables before installation: Power cord, lightning protector, distribution box, air switch, PoE switch (optional), electric screwdriver, network cable, ladder, insulating gloves, and other things as needed. Detection Range Horizontal Direction Make sure that the front side of the Radar faces the central part of the detection area. 5 Horizontal direction Quick Start Guide In Figure 2-1, number 1 represents detection area and number 2 represents horizontal detection angle. Detection Range Blind Zone for Short Distance Due to the microwave feature, the detection distance of margins is shorter than the central detection distance. See Figure 2-1. The height of central point of the equivalent reflection interface of detected objects such as human and vehicle is above 1 m. Radar's maximum distance of blind zone is shown in Figure 2-2. For other maximum blind zone distance with typical parameters, see Table 2-2. 6 Max blind zone distance Quick Start Guide Table 2-1 Max blind zone distance No. 1 3 Name No. Installation height 2 Max. detection range Name Blind zone Installation height (h) 2.0 m (6.56 ft) 3.0 m (9.84 ft) 4.0 m (13.12 ft) Table 2-2 Max blind zone parameters (60 m radar) Pitch Angle () Blind Zone Max Detection Range 03 03 03 3.0 m (9.87 ft) 60.0 m (196.85 ft) 5.0 m (16.40 ft) 60.0 m (196.85 ft) 8.5 m (27.89 ft) 60.0 m (196.85 ft) Unpacking the Box After unpacking the box, check if there is obvious damage to the appearance of the Radar, and make sure that the components are complete against the packing list.

When the Radar is powered on, the power indicator light will glow. If not, check whether the power cord is firmly connected. Check whether the polarity of the power cord is correct, the supply current and voltage conform to the Radar label, and PoE (802.3at) power supply is normal. Power supply is normal but Make sure that radar's installation direction is correct. See "2.2 the Radar cannot detect Detection Range" and "2.4 Installation". objects. Check whether the network port is connected. No object is found in the detection area but there are detection signals. Check if the Radar installation direction faces the detection region, and there is no intense electromagnetic equipment in the detection region to interfere the Radar. The pole with the Radar installed on is not swaying. No weed or swaying branch in the detection region. If any, prune them regularly or draw a shield area around them. Does a target behind a solid Electromagnetic wave of the Radar cannot penetrate objects such object can be detected by as cement, rocks, glasses, and metals. If any, a blind zone will be the Radar?

shows. No. The detection distance in front of the Radar is farther than the sector shows, but for the margin area, it is shorter than the sector Targets close to the Radar cannot be detected. How does the Radar perform in severe weather?
Due to limitations of installation height and horizontal detection angles of the Radar, a blind zone will be formed close to the Radar. The vertical detection angle of the Radar is (Generally, if signal strength is 3 dB, is 10). For detailed maximum blind zone distance, see Figure 2-2. Electromagnetic wave of the Radar can detect the target in blurry visual conditions such as heavy fog. In foggy or rainy days, radar's detection range might decrease slightly for the reason that electromagnetic wave might be damaged more or less. However, there is certain redundancy for the Radar performance when it leaves the factory, so it can conform to the standard requirements even though it is influenced by adverse factors. A false alarm might occur in areas with hail or heavy snow. 23 Cybersecurity Recommendations Quick Start Guide Cybersecurity is more than just a buzzword: its something that pertains to every device that is connected to the internet. IP video surveillance is not immune to cyber risks, but taking basic steps toward protecting and strengthening networks and networked appliances will make them less susceptible to attacks. Below are some tips and recommendations on how to create a more secured security system. Mandatory actions to be taken for basic device network security:
1. Use Strong Passwords Please refer to the following suggestions to set passwords:
The length should not be less than 8 characters;
Include at least two types of characters; character types include upper and lower case letters, numbers and symbols;
Do not contain the account name or the account name in reverse order;
Do not use continuous characters, such as 123, abc, etc.;
Do not use overlapped characters, such as 111, aaa, etc.;
2. Update Firmware and Client Software in Time According to the standard procedure in Tech-industry, we recommend to keep your device (such as NVR, DVR, IP camera, etc.) firmware up-to-date to ensure the system is equipped with the latest security patches and fixes. When the device is connected to the public network, it is recommended to enable the auto-check for updates the function manufacturer. firmware updates released by information of to obtain timely We suggest that you download and use the latest version of client software.
"Nice to have" recommendations to improve your device network security:
1. Physical Protection We suggest that you perform physical protection to device, especially storage devices. For example, place the device in a special computer room and cabinet, and implement well-done access control permission and key management to prevent unauthorized personnel from carrying out physical contacts such as damaging hardware, unauthorized connection of removable device (such as USB flash disk, serial port), etc. 2. Change Passwords Regularly We suggest that you change passwords regularly to reduce the risk of being guessed or cracked. 3. Set and Update Passwords Reset Information Timely The device supports password reset function. Please set up related information for password reset in time, including the end users mailbox and password protection questions. If the information changes, please modify it in time. When setting password protection questions, it is suggested not to use those that can be easily guessed. 4. Enable Account Lock The account lock feature is enabled by default, and we recommend you to keep it on to guarantee the account security. If an attacker attempts to log in with the wrong password several times, the corresponding account and the source IP address will be locked. 24 Quick Start Guide 5. Change Default HTTP and Other Service Ports We suggest you to change default HTTP and other service ports into any set of numbers between 1024~65535, reducing the risk of outsiders being able to guess which ports you are using. 6. Enable HTTPS We suggest you to enable HTTPS, so that you visit Web service through a secure communication channel. 7. MAC Address Binding We recommend you to bind the IP and MAC address of the gateway to the device, thus reducing the risk of ARP spoofing. 8. Assign Accounts and Privileges Reasonably According to business and management requirements, reasonably add users and assign a minimum set of permissions to them. 9. Disable Unnecessary Services and Choose Secure Modes If not needed, it is recommended to turn off some services such as SNMP, SMTP, UPnP, etc., to reduce risks. If necessary, it is highly recommended that you use safe modes, including but not limited to the following services:
SNMP: Choose SNMP v3, and set up strong encryption passwords and authentication passwords. SMTP: Choose TLS to access mailbox server. FTP: Choose SFTP, and set up strong passwords. AP hotspot: Choose WPA2-PSK encryption mode, and set up strong passwords. 10. Audio and Video Encrypted Transmission If your audio and video data contents are very important or sensitive, we recommend that you use encrypted transmission function, to reduce the risk of audio and video data being stolen during transmission. Reminder: encrypted transmission will cause some loss in transmission efficiency. 11. Secure Auditing Check online users: we suggest that you check online users regularly to see if the device is logged in without authorization. Check device log: By viewing the logs, you can know the IP addresses that were used to log in to your devices and their key operations. 12. Network Log Due to the limited storage capacity of the device, the stored log is limited. If you need to save the log for a long time, it is recommended that you enable the network log function to ensure that the critical logs are synchronized to the network log server for tracing. 13. Construct a Safe Network Environment In order to better ensure the safety of device and reduce potential cyber risks, we recommend:
Disable the port mapping function of the router to avoid direct access to the intranet devices from external network. The network should be partitioned and isolated according to the actual network needs. If there are no communication requirements between two sub networks, it is suggested to use VLAN, network GAP and other technologies to partition the network, so as to achieve the network isolation effect. 25 Establish the 802.1x access authentication system to reduce the risk of unauthorized Enable IP/MAC address filtering function to limit the range of hosts allowed to access access to private networks. the device.
