Page 4: Safety
The RF-300 is a passive, network-attached sensor for the detection and direction finding of radio frequencies (RF) and Wi-Fi signals. In combination with two or more RF-300 it is able to determine the position of a drone by the RF signals. The RF sensor detects targeted radio signals, identifies their direction and sends the data, along with an alert to the DroneTracker System. -
Page 5: Safety Information
Despite careful construction, electrical devices can cause fires. Do not mount the RF-300 in areas containing highly flammable materials or gases. Do not mount the RF-300 in a potentially explosive atmosphere. Do not install product near any heat sources such as radiators, heaters, exhaust air systems or other equipment (including amplifiers) that produce heat. -

Page 8: Select The Mounting Place
5 Select the Mounting Place 5.1 Mounting Location The position of the RF-300 has strong impact to the detection and direction finding range and accurancy. The RF-300 is intended for pole mounting. Make sure that a suitable pole is available (diameter between 1.2 in to 8.66 in (40 mm to 220 mm)) and the Antenna Cover extend beyond the pole. -
Page 9: Direction Finding And Localization Conditions
Conditions (see 5.1.1 Detection Conditions, page 8). The position is determined by the intersection of at least two directions. Therefore minimum two RF-300 sensors are required for localization, but we recommend at least three RF-300 sensors as this significantly reduces localization errors. - Page 10 Distances between the RF-300s The distance between the RF-300 usually should be 330 ft to 1,310 ft (100 m to 400 m). 330 ft to 1,310 ft (100 m to 400 m) 330 ft to 1,310 ft...

Page 11: Overvoltage Protection
For safe mounting in an exposed position overvoltage protection must be observed. Ensure that the pole is connected to the lightning conductor of the building. The RF-300 itself must not be grounded directly. The lightning conductor must be installed at least 1.5 m above the RF-300. -

Page 13: Cable Requirements
3.5 mm – 7.5 mm 6.4 Cable Preparation For a weather resistant connection to the RF-300, it is necessary to crimp the supplied environmentally sealed Ethernet connector to the patch cable. Cut the RJ45 plug off the laid cable. Keep the cut off plug, to check the wiring standard later. -
Page 14: Installation With Pole Mount
Diameter of the pole: between 1.2 in to 8.66 in (40 mm to 220 mm) Procedure: Loosen the knurled head screws on both sides of the RF-300 and unhook the RF-300 from the RF Mounting Plate. Screw the RF Mounting Plate onto the Pole Mount. - Page 15 RF Mounting Plate does not deform. Screw the antenna on the screw thread at the bottom of the RF-300. Do not bend the antenna, it should be aligned to the ground. An accurate alignment of the sensor is a prerequisite for a good direction ...

Page 16: Integrate Rf-300 In Your Dronetracker
Dedrone 7 Integrate RF-300 in your DroneTracker To connect to the RF-300, it is necessary to know the IP address of the RF-300. When the RF- 300 is connected to your network, the router or DHCP-Server automatically assigns an IP address to the RF-300. -
Page 17: Cleaning
For an approximate positioning and alignment of the sensor, drag and drop the symbol or arrow and move it to the desired position. To lock the settings, choose the option Lock settings. To sort the RF-300 in the Site Explorer, drag and drop the element to the desired position. Choose [Save changes]. -
Page 18: Decommissioning
By disconnecting the cable without shut down the RF-300, the RF-300 could break. • Always shut down the RF-300 before disconnecting the cable. You have the possibility to shut down the RF-300 via the DroneTracker user interface or directly on the sensor. Shut down via DroneTracker user interface: Log in to the DroneTracker UI. -
