5.Preparation for installation
6
PARVIS MES SMA POLITEC | INSTALLATION MANUAL - VER.2.6
5.1 Preparation of the barrier parts before installation
Since the communication between the barriers can take place wired, via wireless and their alignment
can be done optically, it is advisable to firstly check all the component parts of the barriers and any
accessories before beginning the installation.
5.2 It is advisable to carry out:
•device configuration on a table;
•a check on the operation of the optical and acoustic alignment
•permanent fixing of each device;
•the preparation and carrying out of electrical connections.
In order to avoid errors, operating and installation problems, it is advisable to proceed as follows:
a) Place all the products with the package open on a table;
b) For the low consumption barrier version for wireless models with universal electronic board
housing, insert and connect the radio transmitter, and connect it to the barrier receiver board
c) Power up the barriers and program them
d) Test barrier operation;
e) Place (without fixing) the barriers at the planned points;
f) Place (without fixing) all the other devices at the planned points;
g) Check for each barrier that there is sufficient field for radio communication (for wireless versions);
h) Permanently fix the barriers.
Before proceeding with the installation, it is necessary to check the integrity of the product, the
adequacy of the model chosen and the suitability of the environment intended for installation:
• Check that all conditions of use fall within the "limits of use" and in the "Technical specifications of
the product".
• Check that the environment chosen for the installation is compatible with the total footprint of the
product.
• Check that the surface chosen for the installation of the product is solid so as to ensure stable fixing
and that it is adequately protected from possible impacts or atmospheric agents.

6.Assembly and positioning of the cable pit
7
PARVIS MES SMA POLITEC | INSTALLATION MANUAL - VER.2.6
6.1 Assembly and installation
Insert the edge shown in the figure into the slot on the other wall and fix everything with the screws
Insert the third side in the same way and
tighten the screws
Widen the two opposite walls of the cable pit so you
can insert the last side
Insert and fully tighten the missing screws of
the two sides

8
PARVIS MES SMA POLITEC | INSTALLATION MANUAL - VER.2.6
The positioning of the cable pit for the PARVIS
column, once assembled, takes place through
the masonry keeping the upper edge flush with
the ground.However, it is possible to keep the
upper edge a few centimetres below ground
level, in order to partially cover the base of the
column with earth.
6.2 Positioning of the cable pit
Positioning must take place perpendicular to
the ground.If the base is not perfectly level,
minor adjustments can be made by adjusting
the inserts on the cable pit.By loosening the
insert on the appropriate side to be corrected,
the PARVIS base is raised to achieve the
appropriate vertical alignment.
Incorrect positioning Vertical level correction by insert
adjustment.
POSSIBLE CORRECTION OF INCORRECT CABLE PIT POSITIONING

9
PARVIS MES SMA POLITEC | INSTALLATION MANUAL - VER.2.6
7.Mounting the base on the cable pit
Insert all the connection cables through the cable glands mounted on the cover under the base,
leaving adequate space inside the cable pit and length in the column for making connections to the
terminal board.If you want to finish the column with a light fixture, it is recommended to run the
network cable through the cavity behind the column, up to the top, in order to make the
connections.
Cover under the base with sealing OR, for cable entry with cable glands.
Once the necessary cables have been passed through, the bottom cover is fixed with the screws
supplied along with the corresponding gasket.
At the end of the operation, position the column on the cable pit and secure it with the bolts
provided.

8.Evaluations before installation
10
PARVIS MES SMA POLITEC | INSTALLATION MANUAL - VER.2.6
8.1 Introduction to barriers
These barriers are characterised by two components that send each other infrared beams (or a
transmitter and a receiver depending on the perimeter to be protected); in this way you can create a
barrier invisible to the human eye.
2°
50 m
2 m
View from above
TX RX
Signal interruption:ALARM
An active infrared barrier can contain multiple transmitting and receiving stages inside specific
columns.Infrared barriers have multiple controls that significantly limit false alarms, but if one or
more beams are interrupted, the alarm is triggered.
TX
HEATERS
In conditions of high humidity, the absence of powered heaters can lead to a significant decrease
in the IR signal up to the alarm.

9.Positioning barriers
11
PARVIS MES SMA POLITEC | INSTALLATION MANUAL - VER.2.6
9.1 Precautions before installation
Before placing the barriers outdoors, you must bear in mind that the infrared beam has a conical
shape: the greater the distance between the column, the greater the diameter of the cone when its
arrives.
In order not to generate false alarms, you must place the barriers away from reflecting surfaces, away
from walls or anything that can attenuate the signal.
DO NOT place the barriers if there are plants, bushes or fixed objects in the range that obstruct
the signal and create "grey areas".Leave a corridor of 50 cm for distances greater than 50 m
TX RX
TX RX
DO NOT place barriers close to roads: vehicle lights directed towards the RX could create
disturbances
DO NOT place barriers near automatic gates: photocell signals can create interference.

PARVIS MES SMA POLITEC | INSTALLATION MANUAL - VER.2.6
10.1 Barrier control
All Politec products can be customised according to the installation needs, including column height
and consequently the number of beams inside which can vary in different ways and work in parallel or
crossing.
The barriers can have both TX and RX inside, or they can be terminal barriers that have only TX or RX
inside them.
It is possible to create perimeter protection of any shape and size.

11.Wiring
13
PARVIS MES SMA POLITEC | INSTALLATION MANUAL - VER.2.6
11.1 Type of cable
Wiring requires you to SEPARATE the SHIELDED cable of the 12Vdc power supply plus all the signals
towards the alarm control unit and the synchronism between the columns (e.g.2x0.50 +Nx0.22), from
the power cable of the 24Vac heaters (e.g.2x0.75)to prevent the input of alternating voltage
disturbances on the barrier.
N.B. it is absolutely necessary to shield the cable that supplies the 12 Vdc power supply and to
ground the metal braid.
The sizing of the cables depends on the consumption of the columns and on the resistance of the
cable itself according to the distances involved.
The table shows the cable cross-sections and the relative distances to ensure optimum performance
using the LAR22 power supply (12Vdc-2.5A / 24Vac-300W) and a PARVIS MES SMA column (4TX + 4RX).
The LAR22 can supply up to 4 columns at the maximum extension (4TX +4RX).The LAR22 container is
metallic, so it must be placed inside a room or inserted in a watertight container if used outdoors.A
battery up to 18Ah can be housed in the container.
Alternatively, the LAR18 power supply (12Vdc-0.9A / 24Vac-60W) can be used to power a single
column (maximum configuration 4TX +4RX).The power supply is kept in a PVC container and can offer
IP68 protection if the junction boxes are made with suitable products available on the market.The
LAR18 can be combined with the LARB4 battery housed in a PVC container like the LAR18 but not with
the same IP rating.
N.B.With the PARVIS KIT 220V, connect the mains cable to the fuse terminal board and the battery
positive in the indicated terminal.The wiring of the 12Vdc power supply on the BCPS terminal board
and the setting on the optics, to power the column thermostat control system at this voltage, is done
at the factory. See chap. 12.1.

N.B.:Tighten the joint locking screw after making the adjustment
13.1 Calibration through SMA system
It is possible to improve the calibration by using the supplied filter.
1. Fold the device
following the pre-set
folds
2. Position the filter in
front of the TX optic
inserting the two
hooks on the pins of
the optic fork.The
filter is designed to
refine the search for
the alignment signal
under critical
conditions.
It is sufficient to apply the filter only on the TX, there is no need to repeat the operation also on the
RX.

PARVIS MES SMA POLITEC | INSTALLATION MANUAL - VER.2.6
13.2 Alignment
•Power the unit electrically
•Starting from one of the system columns, press the TEST button on the first RX optic for 3 seconds
or until the buzzer emits an intermittent acoustic signal, accompanied by the equally intermittent
flashing of the long-range high intensity LEDs.
N.B.The frequency of the intermittent flashing is determined by the quality/quantity of signal
received.
•Press the TEST button on the TX optic of the corresponding column for 5 seconds, in this case only
the orange TEST led will light up.
•Orient the TX optic towards the RX optic, vertically and horizontally acting as explained above,
until you find the maximum alignment.
•The maximum alignment condition will be reached when the high intensity LEDs are on steady
and the buzzer will emit a continuous sound, for this reason, it may be necessary to act with small
movements also on the RX optic.
