Description
The Senstar LM100 intelligent perimeter lighting and sensing solution combines high-intensity 
LED lighting with an accelerometer-based vibration detection sensor. The system is comprised of 
a distributed set of LM100 luminaires, which include the LED lights and the vibration detecting 
sensor, a gateway device that processes the signals from the luminaires, and a luminaire AP 
(access point) that provides an RS-485 half-duplex connection between the RF-based luminaires 
and the gateway. 
The Senstar LM100 luminaires are typically mounted on the perimeter fence, but can also be 
mounted on walls or other surfaces. The luminaires communicate over a proprietary wireless 
mesh network transmitting status information and receiving control point commands from the 
gateway via the hard-wired connection to the luminaire AP. The gateway provides the user 
interface to the distributed luminaires as well as the interface between the luminaires and a 
security management system (SMS). The gateway device supports up to 100 luminaires (the 
luminaire AP is included in the 100 unit limit for each Senstar LM100 system).
