water, large waves and other disturbances in the surface of the water might be
interpreted by the radar as moving targets.

Note that in similar to all transmitting/receiving antennas and devices, the SR-Series
sensors also exhibit low gain to areas outside the stated coverage area. This results
in some wanted and unwanted phenomena for example:
o Zero range detection: even when installed on very high (>10m) poles with
zero tilt angle – the radar will probably still detect targets moving on the
ground directly below it (allegedly increasing coverage in elevation to 90
degrees below the horizon).
o Near range disturbances: large moving targets (or metallic objects acting as
reflectors) in the near vicinity of the radar (up to 10 meters away from it for
human targets) outside the area of coverage and even directly behind the
radar might be detected by the radar and falsely interpreted as targets
moving within the coverage area.
Mechanical Installation
SR-Series sensors have four mounting holes for attaching the unit to designated
adaptors/brackets. It is strongly recommended to use Magos mounting brackets. This
section includes full details for the mechanical mounting of the sensors.
Important!
The warranty does not cover water damage caused to the connector. In order to
avoid such damage, the cap must be attached whenever a cable is not plugged in.
Whether using the cable or the cap ensure that they are securely connected by twisting them
until firmly locked.
Sensor Mounting
Figure 3 and Figure 4 outline the mechanical dimensions of the various sensors and the
with ¼''-20X1/2 screws. Screws and mounting brackets can be purchased separately from
locations of the mounting holes (identical in all SR-series models). Holes are compatible
Magos. These include tilt adjustable brackets, and adaptors for wall, corner, and pole
installations as depicted in.

Ensure all 4 screws are used. During installation make sure all screws are properly
-
fastened and are installed with spring washers and washers. Otherwise, Magos is not
responsible for damage caused to the unit or people that might result from the
detachment of the sensor unit under harsh wind conditions.
