3 Setup and calibration
μltraWave setup and calibration is done using Senstar’s Universal Configuration Module (UCM).
The UCM is a window-based software application that performs the calibration, setup,
maintenance and diagnostic functions for Senstar’s line of intrusion detection sensors. The UCM
connects directly to the μltraWave unit via USB. Network based μltraWave receivers can also
connect remotely via the Silver Network Manager.
Senstar recommends that the initial calibration be done at the μltraWave unit using a direct USB
connection to the UCM. An enclosure tamper condition must exist to enable UCM communication
via a USB connection.
The μltraWave receiver setup requires the following configuration settings:
•specify the Locale - FCC for North American applications, ETSI for European applications
(transmitter and receiver settings must match)
•specify the Frequency Pair (transmitter and receiver settings must match)
• enter the Transmitter Serial Number
•set the detection Thresholds (velocity response)
(use the UCM design tool to calculate the optimum detection Thresholds)
The μltraWave transmitter setup requires the following configuration settings:
•specify the Locale - FCC for North American applications, ETSI for European applications
(transmitter and receiver settings must match)
•specify the Frequency Pair (transmitter and receiver settings must match)
Once the μltraWave transmitter and receiver are properly installed and configured, you can
calibrate the receiver unit. On the receiver’s UCM Status tab, select the recalibrate button and the
μltraWave receiver will auto-calibrate to provide the best possible received signal strength (see
Receiver calibration on page 26
).
