It is designed to detect an intruder either climbing or cutting the fence. Vinyl coated or plastic coated fencing does not transmit sound to the cable as efficiently as bare metal fabric. For vinyl coated fences we recommend doubling up the amount of sensor cable used on the fence. We recommend two passes of cable be installed in a zone for vinyl coated fabric compared to the single pass when the fabric is bare metal. The audio feature can be used to help in the assessment of alarms if there is no CCTV video assessment.
Many clients find the audio feature useful in helping to diagnose and rectify nuisance alarm causes.
Please contact Senstar-Stellar Corp. Customer Support for advice. There are a number of ways to protect swinging and sliding gates and to bypass them when they are in use. Intelli-WAVE uses a separate transmitter and receiver and is installed inside of a physical barrier, such as a fence or wall. Microwave sensors require large sterile zones that are flat and free from any moving objects including moving or blowing vegetation. Since the detection field is quite large, the sensor is difficult to avoid or defeat.
