1. INTRODUCTION
The patented T-DAR®(Tailgate Detection Alarm and Recording) system uses three-dimensional optical
imaging to detect piggybacking and tailgating through mantraps, security vestibules, sally ports, or person
traps. The Newton T-DAR system detects persons, differentiates them from carts or other objects inside
of the mantrap, and then utilizes stereo machine vision technology to identify and tag each human within
the field of view of the tracking (overhead) camera. Once the status of a passage is determined to be
tailgating or piggybacking, the T-DAR system then actuates any number of possible results, all controlled
and pre-selected from an easy to use user interface (UI). These alarms and signals range from flashing
lights and voice annunciation through remote alarm, real-time delivery of video of the event to security,
and activation of internal or existing DVR systems.

3. TIPS FOR A SUCCESSFUL T-DAR INSTALLATION
To ensure the most accurate detection, it is crucial that the final internal dimensions of a T-DAR-equipped
mantrap adhere to the measurements that an end-user has provided to Newton Security. The design,
performance and price of this system are based upon those specific characteristics.
Mantrap Location
Locate the mantrap as far away from sunlight as possible. Changes in ambient light levels (day-to-night)
in the mantrap may significantly increase false detection and false alarms.
Mantrap Construction
For optimum results the mantrap should be of opaque, solid wall construction.
If a glass wall is used for the installation, Newton Security recommends:
There should be no indirect sunlight in the mantrap. If the potential exists for sunlight in the
environment, do the following test on a bright day when there is full sunlight exposure:
oTurn off all lighting fixtures in the mantrap and in the surrounding area.
oIf you can read this manual or similar text in the resulting available light, there may be
too much sunlight for optimum performance.
oPoint a light meter at the source of the sunlight; it should be less than 10LUX.
Any direct sunlight in the mantrap will cause erratic performance and must be avoided.
For the most consistent performance, use the least amount of glass possible, for the mantrap
walls. Avoid using glass doors in the mantrap, as people standing outside the door (waiting to
use the mantrap) may be detected by the T-DAR cameras.
Avoid using fully glassed walls next to a high traffic area, as people may be detected outside
the mantrap wall.
oWe suggest installing two sections of glass in the wall, running the length of the
mantrap if necessary.
oOne section may be placed higher than five feet above the floor, with the other
section below three feet from the floor.
oThis results in an opaque section, between three and five feet above the floor, and
will prevent the cameras from detecting a person standing on the other side of the
glass.
Mantrap Height
The minimum camera height for proper tracking of the T-DAR cameras is 2600mm (8.5 ft).
Persons taller than 6.3 ft. (1.9m) may receive higher false alarm rates in mantraps with
camera heights lower than 2600mm (8.5 ft).
For ceilings between 2410mm (7.9 ft) and 2600m (8.5ft), camera height extending kits are
available.
For low false alarm rates, mount the camera head at 2750mm (9ft) or higher.
Mantrap Size
The mantrap size is limited by the height and viewing angle of the camera heads. The limits specified
below are rigid and cannot be exceeded. Exceeding the two-head mantrap size limitations will leave a
significant gap in tracking, and security. If the mantrap is built over the specified size, a larger three or
four head T-DAR system should be purchased.
The maximum length of a mantrap with cameras lower than 2740mm (9ft) is 2740mm (9ft).
The maximum width with cameras lower than 2740mm (9ft) is 1450mm (4.75ft).
The maximum length of a mantrap with cameras above 2740mm (9ft) is 3000mm (10ft).
The maximum width of a mantrap with cameras above 2740mm (9 ft) is 1500mm (5ft).

Cameras
Ensure that the cameras are securely mounted and not susceptible to any movement such as:
The opening or closing of mantrap doors, and/or
Vibration of the drop-ceiling caused by air pressure changes within the mantrap
Mount and align the DC200LP Stereo Camera Heads in the proper locations:
oFor camera heights below 2740mm (9ft), space the two camera heads no more than
1400mm (4.5ft) apart.
oFor camera heights above 2740mm (9ft), space the two camera heads no more than
1500mm (5ft) apart.
oFor camera heights below 2740mm (9ft), ensure there is no more than 700mm (2.25ft)
from each camera head (camera center) and all adjacent doors and walls.
oFor camera heights above 2740mm (9ft), ensure there is no more than 760mm
(2.50ft) from each camera head (camera center) and all adjacent doors and walls.
Video Cables
For optimum performance, strong video signals are required.
For the coaxial camera cables, it is highly recommended to use compression fittings rather
than crimp-on fittings. For example: Paladin-brand compression fittings are a good
representative.
Ensure that video cables are well separated from any power circuits and cables, solenoid
locks, automatic door hardware, motors, and vibrations.
All T-DAR video cable runs need to be isolated in steel conduit, not shared with other wiring.
Video cable runs should be un-interrupted, with no junction points or splices
Floor Surface
Avoid reflective or patterned floors within a mantrap.
Use a light shade floor. A light shade floor will provide a good contrast between dark clothing
and the floor.
Install carpeted or mat flooring rather than hard/tiled flooring. This will reduce light reflections
from the floor.
Avoid installing carpet with repeating patterns or stripes
When a tiled or wood floor is part of the mantrap, ensure that there are no highly visible,
repeating seams or patterns.
Use a material that will not show excessive dirt or tracks.
Flooring may be of any color, although we recommend using a color that does not show dirt
or tracks.
Hardware & Finishes
Avoid reflective horizontal surfaces as may exist on door hardware and glass frames. Reflective spots
will degrade the T-DAR tracking ability in the area of the reflection.
When selecting door panic hardware inside the mantrap, select hardware with a black or
bronzed finish if possible. Apply a non-reflective coating on the top surface if necessary.
Avoid large horizontal reflective surfaces on frames around glass walls and windows in the
mantrap. Glass with large horizontal metal frames may reflect excessive light toward the
T-DAR cameras.
Apply a dark or non-reflective coating to horizontal, flat metal surfaces that may reflect light
toward the T-DAR cameras.

5
Lighting
Adequate and consistent downward lighting is required for accurate operation. To detect tailgate
violations, the T-DAR requires adequate and consistent downward lighting. Failure to provide
adequate lighting will result in increased false alarm rates, as well as the possibility of missing a
violation.
To provide consistent light levels across the entire mantrap, use at least one fluorescent
panel per T-DAR camera head. Florescent lighting creates a more evenly lit environment and
reduces bright reflections.
If low-frequency fluorescent lighting is used, a line-lock is required.
oIf the lighting in the mantrap consists of low frequency (older, style-line frequency)
fluorescents, use the AC wall-mounted transformer that is included with the T-DAR
control unit to ensure proper operation of the T-DAR system.
oThis transformer, or another low voltage AC source of 6 to 30VAC, will provide the
correct line locking of the T-Dar system to the building lighting.
The use of direct lighting, such as can-style fixtures, or filament-style bulbs is discouraged,
because the directional lighting of these bulbs may create bright reflections.
If the mantrap has a tiled and/or polished floor, take care that the lighting is highly diffuse.
The minimum acceptable amount of lighting for proper operation of the T-DAR system is
300LUX. Illumination must be added if the levels are below this level.
Record downward light, measured at a level approximately 1m (40 inches) above the floor.
When taking measurements hold the light meter away from the body.
The Illuminating Engineer Society of North America (IESNA) bases lighting specifications on
data for Performance of Visual Tasks. High contrast, calls for approximately 300 to 500 LUX
(30 to 50 foot-candles).
If sunlight is a factor, take all light measurements after dark.
Access Reader Placement
Avoid mounting the access reader(s) between camera heads (in the center of the mantrap).
The access reader should be mounted under the camera on the secure end of the mantrap.
Power
T-DAR requires a 24VDC power supply for operation.
An external 24V DC power supply with an output of 10 Amps is required.
A power supply is NOT included with the T-DAR system.
