parked vehicles, etc.) that run parallel to the monitored
roadway.
2.3 Cabling. The cable end connector shall meet the MIL-
C-26482 specication and shall be designed to interface
with the appropriate MIL-C-26482 connector. The connec-
tor backshell shall be an environmentally sealed shell that
oers excellent immersion capability. All conductors that
interface with the connector shall be encased in a single
jacket, and the outer diameter of this jacket shall be with-
in the backshell’s cable O.D. range to ensure proper seal-
ing. The backshell shall have a strain relief with enough
strength to support the cable slack under extreme weather
conditions. Recommended connectors are Cannon’s KPT
series, and recommended backshells are Glenair Series 37
cable sealing backshells.
The cable shall be the Orion Wire Combo-2204-2002-PVC-
GY or an equivalent cable that conforms to the following
specications:
● The RS-485 conductors shall be a twisted pair.
● The RS-485 conductors shall have nominal capacitance
conductor to conductor of less than 40 pF/ft at 1 kHz.
● The RS-485 conductors shall have nominal conductor
DC resistance of less than 16.7 ohms/1000 ft. (304.8 m) at
68°F (20°C).
● The power conductors shall be one twisted pair with
nominal conductor DC resistance of less than 11.5
ohms/1000 ft. (304.8 m) at 68°F (20°C).
● Each wire bundle or the entire cable shall be shielded
with an aluminum/mylar shield with a drain wire.
The cable shall be terminated only on the two farthest
ends of the cable.
The cable length shall not exceed 2000 ft (609.6 m) for
the operational baud rate of RS-485 communications (9.6
Kbps).
If 12 VDC is being supplied for the RPD then the cable
length shall not exceed 110 ft. (33.5 m).
If 24 VDC is being supplied for the RPD then the cable
length shall not exceed 600 ft. (182.9 m).
Both communication and power conductors can be
bundled together in the same cable as long as the above-
mentioned conditions are met.
SmartSensor Matrix Installation
Specication
1.0 General. This item shall govern the installation of an
aboveground radar presence detector (RPD) equivalent to the
Wavetronix SmartSensor Matrix.
RPDs can provide accurate, consistent, and reliable presence
detections provided they are installed properly. The require-
ments in this specication are intended to ensure proper RPD
installation.
2.0 Mounting and Installation.
2.1 Mounting Assembly. The RPD shall be mounted di-
rectly onto a mounting assembly fastened to a mast arm,
pole or other solid structure.
The RPD mounting assembly shall provide the necessary
degrees of rotation to ensure proper installation.
The RPD mounting assembly shall be constructed of
weather-resistant materials and shall be able to support a
20-lb. (9.1-kg) load.
2.2 Mounting Location. The RPD shall be mounted at a
height that is within the manufacturer’s recommended
mounting heights.
The RPD shall be mounted at an oset from the rst lane
that is consistent with the RPD’s minimum oset.
The RPD shall be mounted so that at least 20 feet along
the farthest lane to be monitored is within the eld view
of the RPD.
The RPD shall be mounted with its cable connector down
and shall be tilted so that the RPD is aimed at the center
of the lanes to be monitored. Typically, the RPD is tilted
o of vertical by 20–30 degrees.
The RPD shall be mounted on a vertical signal pole or on
the horizontal mast arm.
The RPD shall be mounted so that its eld of view is not
occluded by poles, signs or other structures.
RPDs that are mounted within 20 ft. (6.1 m) of each other
or that are monitoring the same intersection shall be con-
gured to operate on dierent RF channels regardless of
the pointing direction of the RPDs.
It is recommended that the manufacturer be consulted to
verify nal RPD placement if the RPD is to be mounted
near large planar surfaces (sound barrier, building,
