Precautions

1.3. PART IDENTIFICATION

Main unit
Service lid screw (M3x8 mm)

1.4. PREPARING TO MOUNT THE LASER SENSOR

1. Do not stare directly into the red alignment laser. Do not leave the red alignment laser turned on after installation process
is complete.
2. Use wall brackets and tripod with compatible mounting only.
3. Install the product on a solid surface.
4. Install the product so that the detection line is not obscured by interference from tall grass or tree branches waving in
the wind.
5. For perimeter protection, the unit should be placed at an optional detection height and parallel to ground.
6. Do not install or leave the product in a location exposed to heat, vibration or impact.
7. The SiteWatch™ laser sensor is compatible with a number of conventional wall brackets used for surveillance cameras, all
standard accessories, such as pole mounts, corner mounts etc., can be used.
8. When using the product for mobile applications, the threaded UNC 5/8" - 11 hole is compatible with most surveyor
tripods.
9. Using the mounting accessory, mark and drill all necessary holes in the mounting surface.

1.5. CABLING THE LASER SENSOR

The SiteWatch™ laser sensor is powered with PoE and all communication is made with TCP/IP. For applications that require cables
over 328ft (100m) between unit location and nearest switch or router it is necessary to use network extenders or fiber optics.
1. Remove the shell and service lid.
2. Insert the network cable without a connector through the cable gland. Crimp RJ45 connector to the cable then plug into
the RJ45 jack.
Power input
Power over Ethernet (48V DC) or 12V DC
Power consumption
4W, class 2
3. Tighten the cable gland to secure the cable and seal the casing.
4. If the relay is desired to be used, replace the plug on the
backside with supplied cable gland.
5. Connect the signal cable to the terminals. Choose
connection for desired function, normally open (N/O)
or normally closed (N/C).
6. Replace the service lid and shell.

NOTE: The sensor must always be mounted on
a steady foundation, such as a wall or a
pole that is well secured to minimize risk of
misalignment due to vibrations.
NOTE: The sensor has a maximum detection range
of up to 1640.42ft (500m). Recommended
range for demanding applications is
984.25ft (300m) to ensure detection of
small objects such as people, even in difficult
weather conditions.
