2The Multi Sensor
The Multi Sensor is a network-attached multi-sensor system, which detects civil drones and
triggers an alarm. An alarm can be send to the network and is shown in the user-interface,
known as the DT Control Center.
Parts of the Multi Sensor
A Audio Sensor D Near Infrared HD Camera
B Multi Sensor E DT Mounting Plate
C HD Camera F DT Heat Sink
With the interacting sensors the Multi Sensor is able to detect all kind of civil drones. Based on
multiple parameters such as noise, shape, and movement patterns, the detection rate is
optimal. Depending on the environmental, weather conditions, drone type and drone size, the
detection rate varies significantly.
In case of a drone alert the built-in camera saves videos in HD quality and the audio sensor
saves the sounds, providing evidence of the threat intrusion.

5Installation
5.1 Select the Mounting Place
5.1.1 Mounting Location
Select a secure installation location and mounting position for the device. Ideally, this is a
location where the device cannot be interfered with, either intentionally or accidentally.

Sonic and ultrasonic noise can disturb or disable the acoustic detection.
Mount the Multi Sensor as far away as possible from any source of noise, e.g.:
•Fans
•Radiators
•Converters
•Speakers
•Electrical motors
•Capping power supplies
•Trees (moving leaves producing ultrasonic noise)
Ensure that the location has the appropriate clearance from power and lightning conductors,
in accordance with NEC725 and NEC800 (CEC Rule 16-224 and CEC Section 60). Do not install
the device near the following object:
•Any excessive heat sources
•Any overhead power lines, power circuits, or electrical lights, or where there is a chance
of electrical discharge.

Note the properties of each Multi Sensor.This is needed for service and for correct
configuration. You can find all information on the type label on the backside of the
Multi Sensor.
We recommend to use the table in this manual (see chapter 12 Overview
Multi Sensor Installations, page 25). The following information is important:
•Serial Number
•MAC Address Video
•MAC Address Audio
•Type of Lens
•Position and Orientation

5.1.2 Mounting Surface
Make sure the selected mounting surface is capable of supporting the combined weight of the
Multi Sensor and mounting hardware (sold separately) under all expected conditions of load,
vibration, and temperature.
5.1.3 Mounting Orientation
The Multi Sensor is designed for installation like the picture below, facing away from a vertical
surface. The maximum inclination is 28° to the vertical. Ensure that the rain and sun cover of
the camera is orientated above the camera.
Correct and incorrect mounting orientations

5.1.4 Power Supply, Cable Requirements and Required Tools
Power Supply
The Multi Sensor does not need any additional power supply connection. The power supply is
provided by the patch cable over active PoE+ (802.3at).
•Make sure, that your network has activated active PoE+ (802.3at).
•We recommend installing additional overvoltage protection between the sensor and the
switch.
Cable Requirements
Type Cat-6 Patch Cable
Recommendation: Cat-7 Patch Cable
Maximum Length 100 m (328 ft)
For longer distances a PoE extender is required
External Diameter 3.5 mm – 7.5 mm
For a weather resistant connection to the Multi Sensor, it is necessary to crimp the supplied
environmentally sealed Ethernet crimp connector to the patch cable (see 5.2 Cable Preparation
(Crimp), page 12).
Required Tools
•drilling machine
•screwdriver
•suitable screws for the underground
•depending on the mounting location a ladder or lift truck
•crimping tool. For an environmentally sealed connection to the Multi Sensor, it's necessary
to crimp the supplied connector to the patch cable.
•hex key: size 4 mm
•wrench: size 13 mm

5.1.5 Mounting Device
The Multi Sensor is delivered with the DT Wall Mount or the DT Pole Mount.
To mount the Multi Sensor with another mounting equipment, note the following
requirements for the mounting equipment:
•licensed for outdoor use
•safe and stiff load of 8.4 lb (3.8 kg
•matching for the holes of the DT Mounting Plate
Dimensioning of the holes of the DT Mounting Plate

5 Installation Dedrone

5.2 Cable Preparation (Crimp)
For a weather resistant connection to the Multi Sensor, it is necessary to crimp the supplied
environmentally sealed Ethernet connector to the patch cable. The used patch cable must
comply the defined cable requirements (see 5.1.4 Power Supply, Cable Requirements and
Required Tools, page 10).
Procedure:
1Cut the RJ45 plug off the laid cable. Keep the cut off plug, to check the wiring
standard later.
2Thread the gland nut and the connector body
on to the cable.
3Remove the cable jacket carefully. Therefore take care not to damage the braid and
foil.
4Fold back the braid and foil over the cable jacket.
Note: 25 mm (1”) of free conductors are needed.
5Unravel the conductors, sort the conductors in
the required wiring standard (568-A or 568-B)
and push the conductors all the way in the plug.
The required wiring standard can be checked on
the previous cut-off RJ45 plug.

5.3 Installation with DT Wall Mount

Install the Multi Sensor together with another person. To handle the Multi Sensor,
mounting equipment and precise alignment and without dropping, it is recommend
that more than one person is used for installing each Multi Sensor.
Procedure:
1Screw the wall mount to the desired position. Therefore use suitable screws for the
underground (not included in the scope of delivery).
2Unscrew the DT Mounting Plate from the Multi Sensor with the 4 screws at the arms
of the Multi Sensor.
3Screw the DT Mounting Plate onto the wall mount. Therefore note 2 things:
•Be sure, that the hole for the cable connection is at the lower right corner
(looking from the front), and the contact field for the DT Heat Sink shows to the
front.
•Put a flat washer between the screw head
and the DT Mounting Plate.
•Put a lock washer between nut and
DT Wall Mount.
4Position the Multi Sensor carefully on the DT Mounting Plate and screw down the 4
screws.
5Adjust the Multi Sensor in the desired angle. Note the maximal inclination of 28° to
the back.
6Connect the crimped patch cable (see 5.2 Cable Preparation (Crimp), page 12) to the
Multi Sensor and screw down the connector.
If the patch cable is connected to the network, the Multi Sensor boots
automatically and after approximately 1 second the blue button at the
Multi Sensor illuminates, indicating that the hardware is ready.
The patch cable is connected to the network and the Multi Sensor does not boot
automatically after approximately 1 second?
Push the blue button and wait for it to illuminate.
Make sure, that active PoE+ (802.3at) is activated in your network.

5.4 Installation with DT Pole Mount

Install the Multi Sensor together with another person. To handle the Multi Sensor,
mounting equipment and precise alignment and without dropping, it is recommend
that more than one person is used for installing each Multi Sensor.
The DT Pole mount, delivered by Dedrone, can be used for poles or masts with a diameter
between 3,94 in to 8,66 in (100 mm to 220 mm).
Procedure:
1Unscrew the DT Mounting Plate from the Multi Sensor with the 4 screws at the arms
of the Multi Sensor.
2Screw the DT Mounting Plate onto the pole mount. Therefore note 2 things:
•Be sure, that the hole for the cable connection is at the lower right corner
(looking from the front), and the contact field for the DT Heat Sink shows to the
front.
•Put a lock washer between the screw head
and the DT Mounting Plate.
•Put a lock washer between the
DT Pole Mount and the nut and screw it
down.
3Run both straps through the slashes of the DT Pole mount.
4Hold the DT Pole Mount at the desired height of the pole, lay the straps around the
pole, put the strap in the slash under the screw of the strap and tighten it
appropriately.
5Position the Multi Sensor carefully on the DT Mounting Plate and screw down the 4
screws.
6Connect the crimped patch cable (see 5.2 Cable Preparation (Crimp), page 12) to the
Multi Sensor and screw down the connector.
If the patch cable is connected to the network, the Multi Sensor boots
automatically and after approximately 1 second the blue button at the
Multi Sensor illuminates, indicating that the hardware is ready.
The patch cable is connected to the network and the Multi Sensor does not boot
automatically after approximately 1 second?
Push the blue button and wait for it to illuminate.
Make sure, that active PoE+ (802.3at) is activated in your network.
