Each radar sensor requires a power and a network connection. The power and network connections run from the sensor to a local junction box (e.g. at the base of the a post) where the power supply is situated. Remember to ensure that the maximum cable lengths remain within the capability of the selected cabling and infrastructure.

To connect power and network
- Remove the protective cap from the Ethernet connector and attach the RJ45 plug. Ensure that the weatherproof shroud on the Ethernet connector is secure.
- Attach the 24V DC plug to the connector (by pushing it fully on and turning clockwise to lock).
- Attach a suitable earth cable to the earthing point (requires an M5 bolt).
- Ensure that the power and Ethernet cables are securely connected into a suitable junction box that has a suitable 24V DC power supply installed.
Note: The radar typically draws a continuous 800m A, but when the internal heater is active, this rises to approximately 2.2A. Ensure that the Power supply cabling is correctly terminated - see Appendix A. - Ensure that the junction box has an Ethernet cable/fibre optic running to the infrastructure network switch.
- When power is applied, ensure that the radar begins rotating - you can easily hear this, although it takes approximately 10 seconds for the radar to start rotating – in cold conditions this could be longer.
