1. GENERAL INFO
1.1. DESIGN
MAMBA perimeter system is primary designed tosecure perimeter of the objects, especially fences. It can be used for
underground installaon, concrete walls, the protecon of solid objects such as solar panels etc.
This alarm system generates an alarm when intruder trying toovercome a fence or any aempt of intrusion. System
alsotesting constantly overall integrity of the cable (disconnecon, short-circuit).
1.2. PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The general principle is based on fact that the detecon cable
generates small triboelectric signal. This signal (stac
electricity) is due tofricon between the dielectric and the
copper core of the cable. Deformaon of the cable and
fricon in the cable will generate signal in the moment of the
intrusion. If the cable is well connected tothe fence all fence
working like sensive intrusion detector.
Whenever the intruder will aempt tohandle any fence or
cable, the system immediately generates an alarm signal.
The sensoris typically mounted directly tothe fence or fence posts (see. Chapter 1.4 Installation requirements and
procedures). Sensing cable is securely fastened tothe fence using a plasc or metal cable es. The number of strips is
an important parameter for the overall system behaviour and sensivity. Generally: smaller number of the strips is
used to fix the cable it will decrease the sensivity of the system and it may cause false alarms.
System is proofed a recommended touse with shielded cable category5 – it means cable “FTP Cat 5E“ or “STP Cat
5E“. They can alsobe used in other types of communicaon cables that are suitable for its characteriscs parcularly
resistance in an outdoor environment and alsotheir construcon. The system alsosupports a special kind of sensing
cable called “vibrocable” which is typically used for fixed concrete fences or underground installaons. Vibrocable and
other non-recommended cable consult with your supplier.
The system consists of the following components (see. Fig. 1):
sensor MAMBA (1)
non sensive cable (2)
cable juncon box (3)
sensive cable (4)
terminaon (5)

1.4. CABLE INSTALLATION REQUIRMENT
For mounng on the fence, use plasc or metal straps with UV
resistance at a distance of 20-30 cm. Right and stable coacon
tothe fence is one of the most important parameter of
stability of the system. Cable and the fence has tobe one
compact unit. Important is alsoImportant is a sufficient cable
tension and uniform strength of ghtening strips. It is
advantageous touse a special mounng strips tongs. If the
cable is routed through a column or other reinforcement,
set higher tension level on the tongs.
Do not connect detecon cable directly tothe Mamba unit, use non-sensive cable connected in the juncon box
(see. Figure 1 - Diagram of the system). Non-sensive cable is typically a coaxial cable type RG59 without aluminium
foil shielding. Best non-sensive cable is the RG59 cox with cooper mesh dielectric shielding.

Installaon manual – Mamba II
Do notstress cable when crossing fence posts (see. Fig. 3). In this case, leave the cable non-
stressed due todilataon of the cable and the movement of blocks of the fence.
Make sure that non-sensive cable RG59 is hidden and possibility of sabotage is eliminated to
the minimum.
2. FENCES
2.1. TYPES OF THE FENCES
System is able to work properly with following types of the fences:
Knitted wired fence
Wired fence
Concrete fence or wall
Solid metal fence
Wooden fence
Barber fence
There is possibility touse standard mounng method in most cases for the wired fences. If you would like toinstall
system tothe concrete or other solid fence, please contact producer or distributor todiscuss installaon method.
2.2. INSTALLATION OPTIONS AND TIPS FOR ASSEMBL Y
Install the sensor directly tothe fence post.
Wired fence has tobe strong around the complete perimeter and the strips has tobe stressed everywhere in the
same tension. Try tokeep same installaon condion in full length of the fence.
Do not install the sensor on the damaged fence.
Fig.4: Bad installation conditions
Fig. 3: Crossing the fence post

Installaon manual – Mamba II
Individual segments of the fence must be stable alsobetween each other. Sensive cable must never be free - always
has tobe firmly aached tothe fence.
When the system is properly installed, the alarm is generated when the fence is deformed, such as an aempt to
overcome or any other aack.
Within eliminaon of false alarms try tosecure the fence toprevent movement in the wind.
3. INSTALLATION
3.1. INSTALATION OF THE D EVICE
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Please pay aenon tothe grounding of the sensor.
Detector should not be grounded more than once. Please
ground the sensor in one place possible shortest cable
(minimum diameter of 1 mm) - see. Fig. 5.
Minus pol (-) of power supply IS NOT grounding of the
sensor.
Before connecng the sensor tothe installed cable, be sure
that the impedance between the cable shield and wires is
more than 20 MΩ.
Do not install the system in bad weather condion with high humidity (rain and snow). It is very important not to
leave the stripped cable in water and is necessary toavoid any penetraon of humidity intothe cable. In these cases
are helpful usage of lubricant, which prevents the penetraon of moisture and displaces it.
If you want toincrease system robustness against sabotage place sensor in another plasc or metal juncon box. It is
alsopossible to fit it intoother elements of the system (emergency buon, backup
power supply, the source backup, security system concentrator, etc.) - see. Fig. 6.

3.2. CABELING
For wire fences manufacturer recommends using a standard shielded cable FTP Cat 5E for outdoor use with resistance
to UV radiation. For fixed fences and underground installation is necessary to use special VIBRO cable.
Connection of the cable and the sensor
Use the special joints for connecting cables and sensor MAMBA.
There are two types of cable connectors. The first is for transform sensitive cable to non-sensitive and the second type
is for terminating of cable.
Fig.8: Cable connection
Cable joint (see.Fig.9) is designed to transform sensitive cable (FTP Cat5) to non-sensitive (RG59). It can be also used
for repairing a damaged cable.
Fig.9: Cable joint

Installation manual –Mamba II
PREPARATION OF RG59 CABLE
When preparing the cable RG59 follow Figure 10:
unscrew the end of the joint;
put the rubber seal from the cable gland;
remove the isolation of the cable RG59 at distance 42 to 44 mm;
split shielding to separate wires;
wrap the shielding by tinned wire and keep 35-40 mm for
connection to a terminal;
remove the centre cable isolation and keep 15-20 mm;
fold the centre cable in half due to the amplification of diameter
of the cable. Keep about 12 mm because of terminal connection;
ensure that the length of both ends is at least 6 mm.
PREPARATION OF SENSTIVE CABLE
Preparation of sensoric cable describe following Fig.11):
unscrew the end of the joint;
put the rubber seal to the cable from the cable gland;
remove the isolation from 35 to 40 mm;
cut off the isolation foil about 9-11 mm from the left edge of
isolation;
cut off the shielding wire about 9-11 mm from the left edge of
isolation;
bend the cable shield (including foil) toward the existing
isolation;
wrap the shielding with tinned wire for a distance of 35-40 mm;
remove the isolation of all central wires at around 30- 32 mm;
put all centre wires together;
ensure that the length of the central wires are at least 6 mm.

ROTARY SWITCH
To accurately sensitivity settings, use the rotary switch 0-9. To set the lowest sensitivity set to 0 and the highest
sensitivity in the range, set 9. If you change sensitivity in the control software, system will store this setting up to next
change using a rotary switch. The last position is always written into an EPROM - whether hardware or software.
To set the detection methods for different types of fences and installing it is necessary to use the programming
software (see. Chapter 4. Programming SW)
3.4. TESTING MODE
The device has a built-in alarm signal level, which will be very helpful for set up of the system. To activate it, turn DIP
switch no. 2 to the ON position.

Address for RS485 BUS
In this mode, the following LEDs on the board has different meaning:
AL
Alarm
T1
Prealarm
T2
Not used in test mode
Green
Not used in test mode
When adjusting the sensitivity, proceed as follows:
Switch ON Test mode
Turn off extra sensitive mode (DIP switch no. 1).
Set the rotary switch to the middle sensitivity.
Check the signal level by mechanical deformation of sensoring cable. Signal indicator shows the level of signal -
the more green lights on the bar chart means the greater signal level. The yellow LED T1 indicates Prealarm and
red AL indicates an alarm signal.
The sensor needs always 10 seconds after an alarm to regenerate and calibrate the detection algorithm.
Therefore, make individual tests always with a slight time spacing!
Now you can test the sensitivity of the system: throw the object with approximate weight of 2 kg on the fence
(not directly on the cable) and the system should not raise the alarm - red LED AL does not light. Is necessary to
always watch level on the indicator bar.
When the fence is loaded by object with weight more than 25 kg system must raise the alarm - red LED AL lights.
Is necessary to always watch level on the indicator bar.
Adjust the sensitivity by rotary switch or use DIP switch no. 2, until you met the previous two terms.

Installation manual –Mamba II
Resistance to strong winds can be observed in the test mode in windy weather. The signal level indicator should
remain spontaneously in the wind at more than 3 pieces of signal. You can check in the windy weather also the
stability of the tension mesh fence and stability of all parts of the fence. Remove the mechanical deformation of
the cable.
3.5. FIRST START
Switch ON the sensor
When the power supply is connected –first is green LED light, then blink yellow and finally red LED.
Now is a slight delay (about 1 second) tested the integrity of the sensor and cable.
If the cable is connected, integrity of the cable is OK and is properly terminated, after a while, the yellow LED goes
out.
If the sensor is working properly, the red LED will also be illuminated for approximately one second.
Now is system ready for use.
The described behaviour is valid if the sensor in the factory setting. The control software can change the
configuration of fault LEDs. Setting fault diodes is derived from the software settings.
The described behaviour is valid if the sensor in the default factory setting. The control software can change the
configuration of trouble LEDs. Software settings can change status of trouble diodes.

connect locally or via RS485, locate the transmitter in the list of loaded devices. The software automatically
detect all devices connected to your computer. This procedure working only when the software starting, so
your converter has to be connected to a PC before start of the software.
Setting the address of the sensor is described in chapter 3.3. Controls
Speed of communication BUS is in default set to 19 200 Baud –do not change this setting. Is necessary to set
right address on RS485. This setting has to be realized by hardware DIP switch 4-8.
2. Connection to the sensor –Press Connect to connect the sensor and the software automatically retrieves all
values from the sensor EPROM memory. After this operation, all settings in the menu start to available and
status of the sensor will be displayed.
WARNING!!!
All the values that you set in control software, rewrite manually adjusted values of the rotary switch on the
mainboard. And opposite - Each additional manual change on the rotary switch rewrites the software set
parameters. The software always reads the last set values from EPROM memory either HW or SW.
