STEP 1: Install the IMD-3101 Target Viewer
 The soware package can be downloaded from our website at
hps://www.innosent.de/en/downloadportal/
 Open the setup le of the IMD-3101 Target Viewer soware package:
IMD-3101 -> GUI -> TargetViewer - IMD3101_V1.xxx.exe and follow the instrucons of the installaon on your
Windows PC.
STEP 2: Mount the IMD-3101 sensor in a staonary posion, e.g. on a tripod
 Align the sensor in one direcon.
 Check the correct orientaon and mounng angle of the sensor for your required Field of
View (FOV).
STEP 3: Connect the module to your PC
 To connect the sensor to your PC via USB-port, use a TTL-232R-3V3 cable from FTDI. The
connector is compable with the UART-USB-Converter. The cable is not included in the
evaluaon kit.
 The orientaon must be according to this picture.
You can nd informaon about the sensor’s pinout in its data sheet.
 Congure cable latency in Windows device manager to 1ms. Pay aenon to the COM-Connecon-Port
you placed the sensor.

STEP 4: Connect the TargetViewer to the sensor
 Press the connect-buon in the top le corner
 Choose the correct COM Port and click OK
STEP 5: Observe moving detecons
 Detecons are output in a target list via UART
 Detailed informaon about a target is displayed in the target list in the lower area of the soware
- Red indicates targets moving toward the sensor
- Green indicates targets moving away from the sensor
The environment is set up properly and ready for operaon.
The sensor provides further lter sengs. If you want to take advantage of them progress with the next steps.

STEP 6: Sensor sengs
 The sensor sengs are placed on the le side right below the toolbar.
If you close the window unintendedly you can open again via
“View —> Parameter”.
You have the possibility to set 2 lters to create dierent types of alarm
zones. The seng opons for Filter 1 and Filter 2 are the same:
Velocity Filter: Targets in-between min and max velocity thresholds
pass this lter. The velocity Filter can be set 0 up to 7,80 m/s.
Range Filter: With the range lter you can create “alarm zones” were
the detecon is acve. Only targets in-between min and max range
thresholds pass this lter.
Signal Filter: Congure min and max signal strength. Targets in-between min and max signal strength thresholds pass
this lter. This Filter depends on RCS of targets. Note: This value is not corrected by distance
Direcon: The direcon selector lets you determine how the velocity lter should be applied. Therefore you have three
opons:
 v_both (Standard): Choose v_both and both parameters (v_neg and v_pos) will be traced. E.g. if you set the velocity
lter 2m/s to 5m/s the negave (-2m/s to -5m/s) and posive (2m/s to 5m/s) values will be considered.
 v_neg: Choose v_neg and only negave values (coming) will be considered.
 v_pos: Choose v-pos and only posive values (leaving) will be considered.
Trigger Filter for Target List Filtering: Set Counter n/m to trigger the
number of detecons in a specic range.
n = Counter of acons that sasfy the lter sengs
m = Counter of measurement cycles. Update me for 1 cycle is 100ms. If
the sensor detects n acons within m cycles, the open collector is acve.
The standard seng is n=2 acons within m=5 cycles.
Turn o delay: This seng turns o the open collector and set the sta-
tus to inacve.
Frequency Channel: Choose a frequency channel if operang several
sensors to prevent interference.
False Alarm Supression: Enable false alarm suppression to lter out
spurious detecons occurring randomly. This is another possible way to
decrease false alarms, addionally to threshold SNR.
Sensivity Threshold: To decrease false alarm rate, set the threshold.
Targets must exceed this value to be provided in target list.
Note: The higher this value, the more the sensivity / possible detecon
range decreases. This value sets the parameter threshold.

Combinaon of Filter:
 Target List Filtering: Filter 1 and Filter 2 can be combined.
But please consider all ltered values will inuence the target list.
1. Alarm Zones: You can create dierent Alarm Zones by using Filter 1 and Filter 2 together. E.g. range lter in
Filter 1 ist set min. 2 m and max. 15 m. Range Filter in Filter 2 could be set from min. 15m to max. 30m or
more.
2. Use Velocity Filter to set detecon of targets with dierent velocies. E.g. Detecon of targes in Alarm
Zone 1 with a velocity between 2 m/s up to 4 m/s and in Alarm Zone 2 between 4 m/s up to7,8 m/s.
Together with the direcon selector you can determine the exact applicaon. Therefore you have three
opons:
 v_both (Standard): Choose v_both and both parameters (v_neg and v_pos) will be traced. E.g. if you
set the velocity Filter 2m/s to 5m/s the negave (-2m/s to -5m/s) and posive (2m/s to 5m/s) values
will be traced
 v_neg: Choose v_neg and only negave values (coming) will be traced
 v_pos: Choose v-pos and only posive values (leaving) will be traced.
3. Use Signal Filter to detect targets by RCS. The signal lter can be used similar to the velocity lter.
Note: The Signal Filter depends on RCS of target.
Note: If you do not want to use 2 Filters, the values of Filter 2 must be the same as set in Filter 1.

STEP 7: Write sengs to sensor
 Aer you set the conguraon, send the conguraon to the sensor:
If the conguraon has been sent successsfully, the following message appears:
STEP 8: Verify your conguraon
Aer seng the conguraon, you can verify it by checking the plot.
 Only targets within the chosen limits of the lters will be processed and output by the sensor. The
sensor outputs a maximum of 20 targets.
 Targets will be shown in the plot:
