CSB - 60
Microwave barrier
Outdoor Detector 60 Range

2
The CSB-60 is a bi-station microwave detector for outdoor applications. It
comprises a transmitter (T) and receiver (R) which, when mounted facing each
other, create a perimeter protection with coverage of up to 60m. The dimensions of
the antenna’s lobe vary according to the chosen antenna, the distance between the
two units and the selected system sensitivity.
The CSB-60 Microwave barrier is an advanced detector utilizing state of the art
Microwave technology eliminating false alarms while maintaining high security
standards for the detection of human intruders into a protected area.
The CSB-60 is designed to protect large areas and can easily be installed on any
type of fence or pole in order to provide a solid barrier protection and block all
perimeter activities; this barrier rejects interferences of birds and small animals due
to its original method of false alarm elimination.
Several CSB-60 systems can be combined in order to provide a complete perimeter
protection with unlimited space or shape.
The CSB-60 is designed for continuous round-the-clock operation and keeps its
characteristics within a wide temperature range of -40°C up to +60°C and a relative
humidity of up to 98%.
Features:
•Detection Range: Up to 60m
•Operating Temperature: -40°C to +60°C
•Power Input: 12 ~ 30 Vdc
•Detect human intruders walking, running or crawling.
•Quick and easy installation on pole, fence or wall.
•No maintenance required.
•High RFI/EMI Immunity.
•Protection from: Power supply failure, direct sunlight, wind up to 30 m/sec, snow
and rain, small animals, ground precipitation, snow and grass up to 0.5m,
removing the top cover, housing destruction, electromagnetic masking of the
receiver.

Installation instructions.
Selecting mounting location
The installation of the CSB-60 requires that the transmitter and the receiver face
each other, so that the two antennas may be correctly aligned.
The two units must be positioned in direct line at the edge of the area. Local
conditions of the protected zone must be free from obstacles like walls, fences,
trees and ditches or other microwave detectors and systems of anti-intrusion
surveillance.
In order to ensure suitable operation of the CSB-60 type of ground should be one of
the following: Asphalt, Cement, Soil, Clay, Gravel or Grass (mown).
Avoid the following locations.
Avoid installation of CSB-60 on the following type of ground: Thick vegetation,
Grass (unmown), Water, Sand and a Metal.
The ground must not have movable parts near the sensitive zone, any grassy areas
must be frequently mown, there should not be any flowing water, especially
longitudinally, ground where structural features may be changed.
The installation site should satisfy the following requirements (see fig. 1):
•The surface of the site should be leveled with a maximum slope angle of 15°.
•No obstacles as bushes or group of trees within a distance of 1m from the
centerline between two units.
•Depth of snow on the ground should not be more than 0.5m.
•Height of a grass on the ground should not exceed 0.3m. It is important to mow
the grass regularly to avoid its movement interfering with the microwave
signal.

Maximum height of grass on
the ground = 0.3 m
Maximum depth of snow on the

Mounting the detector
Installation on Pole
Use metal or cement poles with a diameter of 90 ~ 100 mm as the support. It is
allowed to install two units on a single support; the two units must be identical (Two
transmitters or two receivers).
Installation height of R and T units should be in a way that the bottom surface of the
plastic housing will be 0.9 ~ 1m above the top of surface (ground and grass).
For pole installation use the two bands connected to the bracket and ensure reliable
fastening of the bands. The unused part of bands may be cut off.
Connect the plastic housing to the bracket using the nuts with the spherical support.
Top installation.
The CSB-60 can be also installed on top of fence or wall.
Installation height of R and T units should be in a way that the bottom surface of the
plastic housing will be 0.3m above top of fence or wall.
The support should be mechanically connected to the fence to ensure reliability.
Cross installation.
In order to avoid “dead zones” under aerials, and to increase the protected area, it is
possible to install multiple CSB-60 systems connected together with overlapping.
Overlap configurations are performed with the units located at the angles of
protected area. The minimum overlap for sufficient coverage must be at least 1.5 ~
2 m, (depending on the sensitivity set and installation height). It is recommended to

5
install an equal number of CSB-60 systems (T and R) in order to close the perimeter
completely. The optimal way is to install transmitters (T) only or receivers (R) only at
the point of overlap.

TEST AND TUNING
For preliminary set-up, focus the receiver and transmitter as if a virtual direct line
connects the receiver and the transmitter.
Make sure that the antenna’s radiating surfaces of R and T are parallel (radiating
surface is perpendicular to the virtual direct line).
1. Take off the cover from receiver - R (fig. 7) and transmitter - T (fig. 8) units.
2. Make sure you switched on the power supply and outgoing electric circuit of the
sensor correctly as shown in fig. 6.
For initial operation, set the sensitivity jumper on the receiver board to position 2
as shown in fig. 5.
To increase the sensitivity set jumper to position 1.
To decrease the sensitivity set jumper to position 3.
3. Adjustment of the aerials receiver and transmitter.
For the optimum operation, adjust the angle and azimuth of the units.
Switch on the power supply to receiver and transmitter.
ALARM LED must be ON.
4. Wait for 2 minutes warm-up time. No moving objects must be in the protected
area during this time. Wait until ALARM LED turns OFF (end of warm-up time).
5. Cross the middle part of the protected area. The ALARM LED will turn ON and
the relay will switch over for 3 Sec.
6. Replace the cover on receiver and transmitter units.

Test procedure
Walk Test
After tuning the sensitivity, connect 12Vdc power to the system.
Allow 2 minutes warm-up time.
Make sure that the protected area is cleared of all people.
Cross the middle part of the protected area.
An alarm signal should be received in the control unit for 3 Sec.
NOTE: Walk Test procedure should be conducted, at least once
a year, to confirm proper operation and coverage of the
detector.
Remote Test
Apply 5-30 Volts from control unit to the terminal marked TEST (on the transmitter
unit).
An alarm signal should be received in the control unit for 3 Sec.
NOTE: During regular operation it is recommended to conduct
remote test every day to confirm proper operation of all
system.
