JSC “Forteza” “Forteza Tribo‐M” operation manual 2. DESIGN AND PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION 2.1. Principle of Operation The basis for the guard alarm operation is generation of electrical signals in the sensor and at its stress centers (points of the sensor rigid fastening to the fence) under mechanical action on the fence components and their subsequent detection by the signal‐processing unit. 2.1.1. Sensor The sensor mounted on the fence is meant for electrical signal generation under unauthorized mechanical actions on the fence. It is a good practice to use tribocable as a sensor. The sensor length depends on the guarded zone length, the fence height, number of supports, and the selected way of the sensor mounting on the fence. 2.1.2. SignalProcessing Unit The signal‐processing unit (SPU) is used for the sensor signals detection and the alarm signal generation. SPU is designed in the metal case. Located inside the case is an electronic board arranged around which are in‐circuit elements of the signal‐processing unit, RS485 connection, terminals for the external circuits connection, and the guard alarm controls. Provided on the SPU case are fasteners meant for its installation. 2.1.3. Adapter and Coupling The adapter is meant for connecting the sensor together with its connecting cable to the signal processing unit and for the connection point shielding and sealing. In equipping gates and wickets use should be made of an extended adapter permitting to fix a spiral wrap hose for the connecting cable protection. The coupling is used when needed to connect two separate portions of the sensor and for the connection point shielding and sealing. The coupling is equipped with nylon ties needed for its fastening to the fence. 2.1.4. Terminal Unit The terminal unit provides a continuous monitoring of the sensor and the SPU connecting cable integrity. It is also meant for the sensor end point shielding and sealing. ...
