1.1. CABLE PIT POSITIONING
The placement of the cable pit for MANA columns, after assembling, have to be done in the following way:
cement all around the cable pit keeping the top edge of it at same level of ground.
POSSIBLE CORRECTION OF THE INCORRECT POSITIONING
Placement should be perpendicular to the ground. If the base is not in perfectly at ground level, is possible to
adjust it through the insert regulation of cable pit.
On the side that must be corrected loosen the insert in order to get the right inclination.

1.1. Installations Problems:
Number of sections
Having to design protection with volumetric barriers of a closed perimeter within a certain number of
sections that take into account the management need of the entire plant, it must be remembered that it is
always preferable to install an even number of sections. This consideration is bound to the fact that the
likely reciprocal interferences between adjacent sections are annulled should at the vertices of the
polygon (cross), resulting from the installation of the various sections, be installed two equipment with
the same name, two transmitters or two receivers. It is evident that this might occur only if the number
of sections is even.Should it not be possible to have an even number of sections then some careful
considerations must be made on interferences that might likely occur in order to find the vertex point
where retained best to place the transmitter near the receiver. The following pictures show some typical
cases for which the most correct solution is given.

Particolar conditions
1. Ground conditions: It is inadvisable to install the equipment along sections with tall grass
(more that 10cm), ponds, longitudinal waterways, and all those types of grounds whose structure
is rapidly mutable.
2. Obstacles: the fences, are generally metallic therefore highly reflecting hence causing various
problems, for this reasons some precautions are suggested:
First of all, make sure that fence has been properly fixed in order that the wind does not
move.
If it is possible the microwave beam shouldn’t be placed in parallel to a metallic fence, is
necessary to create a corner with it
Metal fences placed behind the equipment night cause distorsions to the sensitive beam
especially, and might cause movement detection in unexpected spots, with subsequent
likely generation of false alarms.
In case of Mw barrier should be installed in a corridor between two metallic fences, the
width of the corridor should be necessary not less to 5m.
Along the section, within the area of the protectiion field, are allowed pipes, poles or similiar as long as
their dimensions, with respect to the protection beam, are not too excessive. The trees, hedges, bushes in
general, need very great attention if near or within the protection sections.

CONNECTIONS NOTE
Connection to the mains:
Columns can be powered by 19V AC to 13.8V DC, but is preferable by the last.
Connection:
The connection between the transformer and the 230 V ~ must be made with cables whose section
is approximately 1.5 mm ². It is strongly recommended to use an upstream fuse 1 A delayed. The
cable that carries power from the transformer to MANA will be as short as possible, should come
with shield grounded. The two wires must be connected to terminals 1-2 of the "power
connector”. The transformer used must have the following characteristics:
Primary voltage = 230 V~
Secondary voltage = 18 o 19 V~ 1 A
Secondary voltage = 24 V~ 6 A
Minimum power = 160 VA
NB: Use only safety transformers with a certificate, such as 60950. Must be given good
grounding of the housing processor. Connecting the transformer to 230 V ~ must be made
through a device that has the following characteristics:
1. Bipolar with minimum distance between the contacts of 3mm
2. Provided in the fixed installation
3. Easily accessible
In any case, you should carefully follow the requirements contained in the related law of
fixed devices permanently connected to the mains as the Law 46/90 and CEI 64-8.
In the case of mains very disturbed to add an effective filter 230V 1 A
Connection to the Emergency supplier:
Within each column is provided space to house a rechargeable Lead 12 V - 1.9 Ah. The internal
battery is normally recharged from food through a current limiter.
NB: The casings of the battery used, shall have a flammability class HB or better (UL 94)

POLITEC S.r.l. | Manual MANA MW –Ver. 2.2.2

Connection to the central
Connections to the central processing must be made through shielded cables.
C / o contact Alarm:
The outputs of the devices consist of relay contacts normally closed for reporting states and
tampering alarm.
The contact output to alarm consists of a static relay with a range from 12V 1A.
Tamper output contact is given by the microswitch, with scope 100mA max.
The outputs are enabled for the following reasons:
Alarm Output
1. Intruder alarm on Rx
2. Alarm Channel on Rx
Tamper Output
1. Opening the cap of barriers
NBThe High Risk Protection is essential that the detectors are tested with adequate
intervals to Test Operational. In this way the control unit will be able to detect attempts to
circumvent.

SENSITIVE ZONE
The sensitive area depends on the distance Tx Rx, the sensitivity and the type of antenna. The diagram
below illustrates the sensitive area of diameter at half length as a function of total distance and
sensitivity.
L’altezza consigliata per installazioni di tipo classico è di circa 70 cm dal centro dell’antenna al suolo, con la
sensibilità media impostata.
NB: remember to adjust the sensitivity of "MANA" according to
half width of the beams is desired. As the threshold is higher, the lower the sensitivity and
vice versa.

circuit.
1. Check the various connections: the power transformer to the circuit, the battery, the power
circuit to circuit and transmitter cavities TX (See pp. 9, 12-13).
2. Power board, check the LED lights on Mains power adapter and three power LEDs with V-Test
jumper inserted in position 1-2 (see pp. 12-13).
3. Turn OFF the switch which is on cavity TX. (See page 14).
4. Verify that is in position ON one of the four switches of the "channel selector" tab, TX (same as
RX) See page. 9.
5. Insert the jumper in position 2-3 to verify that LEDs output and VCC (see page 10).
6. Replace the two jumpers in the resting position.
