Advanced Tests

For perimeters protecting critical assets and/or personnel, additional testing may be
required. Tuning the system for some or all the following intrusion types will confirm the
system's ability to detect.

Crawl Testing:

Crawl intrusions should be done with the tester's torso in close proximity, roughly 2.5 – 15
cm (1 – 6 in) to the ground. This position is often referred to as a military or commando
crawl. Crawl intrusions should not be done with the torso lifted on hands and knees, similar
to a baby crawl which is more easily detected.
Because crawling intrusions can be difficult, the test can conclude at the alarm
annunciation.
The crawling pace should be approximately 15 cm/s (6 in/s). The speed of the crawl should
be as consistent as possible. The test intruder should continuously crawl through the area
until being detected or reaching the protected side of the perimeter outside of the detection
field.
Intrusion attempts should be towards the protected resource or perpendicular to the line of
detection.
