  • Page 4: Safety

    The RF-360 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-360 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 via mobile data or local network connection, along with an alert to the DroneTracker System.

  • Page 5: Safety Information

    When the RF-360 is plugged into an AC power source, there is always voltage applied to the internal electronics. Unplug the devices from the power source by disconnecting the AC cable and patch cable immediately.

    The RF-360 is a passive, network-attached or cloud connected sensor for the detection and direc- tion finding of radio frequencies (RF) and Wi-Fi signals. In combination with two or more RF-360 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 via LAN or mobile data to the DroneTracker System.

  • Page 7: Scope Of Delivery

    The position of the RF-360 has strong impact to the detection and direction finding range and ac- curancy. The RF-360 is intended for an installation on top of a pole. Make sure that a suitable pole is available (diameter between 1.2 in to 3.1 in (40 mm to 80 mm)).

  • Page 8: Direction Finding And Localization Conditions

    (see chapter Mounting Surface, page 9). The position is determined by the intersection of at least two bearings. Therefore minimum two RF-360 sensors are required for localization, but we recommend at least three RF-360 sensors as this significantly reduces localization errors.

  • Page 9: Mounting Location

    The third RF-360s can always varify the area of intersection. Distances between the RF-360s The distance between the RF-360 usually should be 330 ft to 1,300 ft (100 m to 400 m). 330 ft to 1,300 ft (100 m to 400 m)

    National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No.70). 6 Installation 6.1 Power Supply The RF-360 can use two kinds of power supplies: • AC power supply with the supplied power plug via a socket (AC 100-240V 50/60 Hz). Make sure that the power socket is grounded.

  • Page 11: Cable Requirements

    External Diameter 3.5 mm – 7.5 mm 6.3 Cable Preparation for LAN connection For a weather resistant connection to the RF-360, it is necessary to put on the supplied outdoor housing to the prewired RJ45 cordset. Procedure: Put the gland nut onto the cable. Thereby make sure that the thread shows to the plug.

  • Page 12: Install The Sensor

    Installation Dedrone 6.4 Install the Sensor Desired mounting place fulfills the requirements (see chapter 5 Select the Mounting Place, page 7). Diameter of the pole: between 1.2 in to 3.1 in (40 mm to 80 mm) Procedure: Open the carton, remove the upper foam.
  • Page 13 The fall protection must be dimensioned according to installation height in terms of thickness and length. Place the RF-360 on the pole mount • Slide the fixing screws in the screw guides of the mounting plate (1). Thereby make sure that the two flaps of the pole mount slides in the slot of the RF-360.
  • Page 14 Installation Dedrone To connect the RF-360 to your local network, connect the patch cable with the outdoor housing to the network socket: • Remove the protective cap from the plug. • Plug the Ethernet cable with the outdoor housing into the plug (1). Make sure that the plug orientation fits the socket.

    To connect to the RF-360 DHCP-Services are required that automatically assign an IP address to the RF-360. If the RF-360 and the DroneTracker Server are in the same Layer2 network they can be connected directly. If the RF-360 and the DroneTracker Server are in different networks refer to the Dedrone Planning Manual or consult your network administrator.
