Instalation

Figure 2.11: Block diagram of the Waveguide 5 Direction. The three sensors A, B
and C are connected to the local network as well as the processing unit. This diagram
assumes the processing unit and the radars to be powered by a single power supply.
For the system to function, the three radars and the processing unit must be powered and
connected through an Ethernet network. The processing unit provides the option to export
data over Ethernet and/or via RS232 serial ports. It also allows the storage of data on a
USB drive. Additionally each of the radars has internal data storage.
Depending on the installation site a junction box and a network switch could be used to
reduce the length of required cable.
The following sections explain how to connect the radars and the processing unit.
