SAFETY INFORMATION
The
equipment conforms to the following requirements set by EC
regulations, including subsequent modifications, and to the legislation set
by the member states that implement these regulations:
1999/05/EEC Radio Directive
Warning: this equipment is destined f
or use in industrial environments
(Class A apparatus). In residential, commercial and light industry
environments, this apparatus may generate radio interference: in this case,
the user may be required to operate while taking appropriate
countermeasures.
T
he apparatus is sensitive to the presence of external electromagnetic fields,
which may reduce its performance.

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR THE US CUSTOMERS
FCC ID: UFW-HI-MOD
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules:
Operation is subject to the following conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and
2. This device must accept any interference received, Including interference that may cause undesired
operation
Warning: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Operation of this device is restricted to law enforcement, fire and rescue officials, scientific research
institutes, commercial mining companies, and construction companies. Operation by any other party is a
violation of 47 U.S.C. § 301 and could subject the operator to serious legal penalties.
Coordination Requirements.
(a) UWB imaging systems require coordination through the FCC before the equipment may be used. The
operator shall comply with any constraints on equipment usage resulting from this coordination.
(b) The users of UWB imaging devices shall supply detailed operational areas to the FCC Office of
Engineering and Technology who shall coordinate this information with the Federal Government through
the National Telecommunications and Information Administration. The information provided by the UWB
operator shall include the name, address and other pertinent contact information of the user, the desired
geographical area of operation, and the FCC ID number and other nomenclature of the UWB device. This
material shall be submitted to the following address:
Frequency Coordination Branch., OET
Federal Communications Commission
445 12th Street, SW
Washington, D.C. 20554
ATTN: UWB Coordination
(d) Users of authorized, coordinated UWB systems may transfer them to other qualified users and to
different locations upon coordination of change of ownership or location to the FCC and coordination with
existing authorized operations.
(e) The NTIA/FCC coordination report shall include any needed constraints that apply to day-to-day
operations. Such constraints could specify prohibited areas of operations or areas located near authorized
radio stations for which additional coordination is required before operation of the UWB equipment. If
additional local coordination is required, a local coordination contact will be provided.
(f) The coordination of routine UWB operations shall not take longer than 15 business days from the receipt
of the coordination request by NTIA. Special temporary operations may be handled with an expedited turn-
around time when circumstances warrant. The operation of UWB systems in emergency situations
involving the safety of life or property may occur without coordination provided a notification procedure,
similar to that contained in CFR47 Section 2.405(a)-(e), is followed by the UWB equipment user.
Notice: Use of this device as a wall imaging system is prohibited by FCC regulations.

WARNING
CLEANING INFORMATION
Before cleaning any external parts of the apparatus, make sure
that all cables have been disconnected, including the pow
er
supply cable. If a damp cloth is used, make sure it is not too wet,
to avoid any damage to the electrical components of the
equipment. Wait until the equipment is totally dry before
reconnecting the cables.
The Detector Duo should be cleaned periodicall
y using a damp
cloth.
Do not use solvents or abrasive detergents.
Do not apply liquid directly to the electrical contacts of the
various connectors. If a specific spray is used to clean the PC
TFT monitor, make sure it is not flammable; ion any case, do no
t
spray it directly on the screen, instead, spray it onto the cleaning
cloth.

1. HARDWARE EQUIPMENT OF THE HI-MOD AND DUALF-400-900
SYSTEMS
Hi-MOD and DUALF-400-900 systems offers you the possibility to choose up to
four different equipments, matching the number of antennas you want to use. This
handbook shows you the equipment you will receive and guides you through the
configuration of your hardware.
One antenna equipment and configuration ( Fig. 1.1 ) shows you the equipment you
will receive for your mono antenna configuration. The equipment is composed of:
•A Rudder
•Two Wheel frames
•Two Connection pipes
•An Antenna and its cable
•A Battery and its cable
•DAD control unit
•LAN cable

1.1.1 Assemblage instructions
First you have to set the rudder in its mono antenna setting. The rudder has two
free bars and four knobs (Fig. 1.2). The bigger ones must be screwed in vertically
to block the free bars in place while the little ones can be screwed in two different
position: if placed on the inside part of the frame you will get the mono or three
antenna configuration (Fig. 1.3); if placed on the external part of the frame you
will get the two or four antenna configuration (Fig. 1.14).

Fig. 1.3 – Rudder knobs: bigger one on the left, smaller one on the right
Now you have to build the frame carrying the antenna: you will need the
equipment shown in Fig. 1.4. Take one of the wheel frame and screw the two
connection pipes in it, then close the frame with the other wheel part (Fig. 1.5).

Place the rudder into the metallic connections of the wheel frame as shown in Fig.
1.6 then insert the two locking devices shown in Fig. 1.7 in the metallic
connections. The locking devices are the two knobs with a little button in their
centres: you have to push it , insert the knob in place and then release it.

Take the antenna and make it slide in the frame from behind. Remember to put
and remove the antenna always from the rear part of the frame. When the antenna
is in place lock it around the two connection pipes using its four hooks (Fig. 1.8).

Finally put the DAD Control unit inside the box in the middle of the rudder (Fig.
1.9) and the battery in one of the two small black bags .

1.1.2 Wiring
Once the DAD unit is in place you have to connect it with the magnetic encoder,
the antenna, the battery and your laptop.
The magnetic encoder cable is located on one of the wheel frames. Let it pass
through the black strip on the rudder until you reach the first ferrite then link the
connector with the Wheel port of the DAD unit (Fig. 1.10).
