3G / 4G Radar Do not install the Halo® pulse compression radar on the same beam plane as a conventional pulse radar. A pulse radar must be set to STBY or OFF any time the Halo® radar is being operated. ¼ Note: Possible interference could be reduced by using the sector blanking feature (see “”... -
Page 14: Considerations For Direct Roof Mounting
Considerations for direct roof mounting When deciding a suitable mounting location for the Halo® Pulse Compression Radar be aware that the vertical radar beam extends to 25° either side of horizontal. With 50% of the power projecting in a beam 12.5° off horizontal. If the radar beams cannot clear the roof line, this will decrease performance of the radar. -
