MicroWave 330 will alarm on average sized humans walking, running or crawling on hands and knees through the detection pattern. Field adjustments can provide alarm on larger or smaller targets, depending on the specific site requirements. -
Page 7: Range Of Operation
3.2 Range of Operation A single MicroWave 330 may cover a distance of 800 feet (244m). The receiver is equipped with automatic gain control (AGC), which automatically adjusts receiver for the distance to be covered and sets the Path Fault parameter. -

Vertical protection pattern will also depend upon Transmitter-Receiver distance, mounting height and “Sensitivity” setting. Actual patterns will vary somewhat with site topography and surface condition. Typical pattern height is 50 to 75% of pattern width. Approximate vertical protection pattern is shown in Figure 5. For example, at 50 feet (15m) with minimum sensitivity the pattern height is 5 feet (1.5m). -
Page 9: High Security Overlaps
High security applications also use stacked link configurations to meet site requirements. A stacked link may consist of two or more MicroWave 330 links or used in combination with the Model 300B link which operates at X-band frequency of 10.525 GHz. A stacked link greatly reduces the dead zone and increases PD. -

MicroWave 330R Receiver RF Assembly consists of a parabolic antenna (identical to antenna of Transmitter) and a Schottky diode detector. The detector converts modulated K-band energy from Transmitter into a low frequency signal for processing by Receiver Circuit Board. The received audio signal is amplified by an automatic gain control (AGC) preamplifier enabling the preamplifier output to be held to a constant level regardless of Transmitter Receiver distance (distance must be within maximum distance of link). - Page 12 Automatic Gain Control: Link automatically adjusts to slow changes in path loss due to environment. AGC range: -60dB. Cross Modulation: When installed in accordance with following installation instructions cross modulation (interference) from adjacent links will be 25dB below primary signal. 3.0 Transmittal Signal Radiated Power: 33Bm peak EIRP (maximum), square wave modulated.

Page 13: Installation Instructions
4.1.1 Required Area MicroWave 330 must be located in an area which is free of obstructions and moving objects such as chain link fences parallel to the detection field, trees, bushes and large areas of water as shown in Figure 11. Large moving objects within the protection pattern will be indistinguishable from an intruder and will cause nuisance alarms. -
Page 14: Terrain
If there is grass or vegetation in the protected area it must be kept cut to a maximum of three (3) inches (8cm) in Snow accumulation should not exceed three (3) inches (8cm) in height. height. MicroWave 330 should not be operated over open water. 4.1.2.1 Terrain in High Security Applications For maximum-security applications where detection of prone “commando style”... -
Page 15: Physical Protection
Choose the location that will provide best security, yet be free from false nuisance alarms. Always locate MicroWave 330 inside a controlled access area to prevent unwanted nuisance alarms due to random foot traffic, vehicles, or large animals. Typically, units should be mounted 2 ½ to 3 feet (0.76-0.91m) above ground level, and far enough inside fence to provide a clear area of protection as shown in Figures 14 &... -

This should be done in a corner as shown in Figure 15. Alternatively the synchronization capability in MicroWave 330 could be utilized. 4.2 Mounting Microwave 330 Prepare a rigid mounting surface for the MicroWave 330 Transmitter and Receiver as shown in Figure 16. 4" (10.2cm) O.D.

Control Module II (RCM II) as the system controller connected to a Relay Output Module II-16 (ROM II-16) and a MicroWave 330 receiver. The MicroWave 330 is located on the perimeter. The RCM II and the ROM II- 16 are located in the control room for relay output interface to other control room devices. -
Page 22: Synchronized Wiring
Tethered configuration. In the synchronized configuration MicroWave 330 supports two (2) time slots, Phase 1 and Phase 2. This will allow for synchronizing two (2) MicroWave 330 links and up to seven (7) transceivers as shown in Figure 25. Two more links can be added if they are rotated 90° as explained in Section 4.2. -
Page 23: Remote Test
The synchronization wiring is shown in Figure 26 for two (2) MicroWave 330 links and two (2) Model 380 transceivers. The Phase 0 or Phase 1 setting is configured in the UIST II software program. The synchronization line must use a 22 or 24 gauge twisted, stranded, shielded pair wire. The last unit in the synchronization chain must be terminated with a 120 ohm resistor. -
Page 24: Terminals, Switches And Indicators
The “Channel Select Switch” SW1 as shown in Figure 28 is used in the Free Running mode to set the modulated frequency of the MicroWave 330 transmitter. The same channel must be used on transmitter and receiver. If transmitter and receiver are on different channels the “Channel Error” LED will illuminate. -
