Security Escort
To enter a location description, place the cursor in the Location text box, click the mouse, and
begin typing. SE receiver location names are important because they are used for directing
response to an alarm and aid service personnel in identifying the device in the event of a
problem. The Problem Reports displayed on the Central Console and printed by the hardcopy
printer contain the device location descriptions that are entered in the Location field.
The Map field defines which map to display for this SE receiver when an alarm is closest to it.
The default map is 0, which corresponds to the bitmap file "MAP0.EDB" stored in the Security
Escort sub-directory. Map 1 would correspond to the bitmap file "MAP1.EDB". Up to 100 maps
(0 to 99) can be defined for each Security Escort system.

Adjusting the sensitivity (SA%)
Security Escort software allows individual SE receiver sensitivity to be set in the Transponder
database. SE receivers' sensitivity can be adjusted from 50% to 149% of their normal setting.
No physical SE receiver changes or upgrades are required. This setting should only be changed
if there are known location accuracy problems in the area of this SE receiver. Settings of 50 to
99 desensitize the SE receiver to 50% to 99% of the actual received signal strength. Settings
of 1 to 49 increase the sensitivity to 101% to 149% of the actual received signal strength. Try
changing the sensitivity of SE receivers one at a time while testing the alarm location
response.
For example, if alarms are being pulled towards a particular SE receiver, lower its sensitivity in
10% increments and retest. If the area can be corrected using this method, verify the
surrounding areas to make sure they have not been adversely affected. Generally, it is better if
the correction is done in small steps while verifying the adjacent areas, rather than trying to
correct the entire error in one step. The sensitivity adjustment option is only available if the
Enable algorithm tweaks checkbox is selected in the System Preferences dialog.
In the Transponder database, the Algorithm drop-down list also allows the selection of
"Default", "Classic", "Linear", "Low", "Medium", or "Strong" pull location algorithms for each
SE transmitter. The point reporting the best reception level determines the actual algorithm
used for the location on any event. If programmed for "Default", the algorithm used is "Linear"
for points programmed as outdoor or tunnel. All other points use "Low". If the point that
reports the best reception level is not programmed with the "Default" algorithm, the location
calculation uses the programmed algorithm.
