Grounding considerations
The Senstar LM100 gateway requires a stable low resistance earth ground connection. Use a
short length of heavy gauge copper wire to connect the ground lug on the bottom of the enclosure
to an approved low resistance earth ground.

Alarm monitoring
Alarm monitoring is site specific and depends on whether you are using relay outputs for alarm
reporting (standalone system, local control mode) or Silver Network based alarm reporting
(networked system, remote control mode). Each gateway has ten user-configurable I/O points
(inputs/outputs). In standalone mode, the outputs are used to signal alarm and supervision
conditions. For network based gateways, alarm data is carried over the network cables and the
outputs are available as output control points from the security management system.

NM Mode alarm reporting
The LM100 gateway can be configured to report alarm and supervision conditions through the
UltraLink modular I/O system. The UltraLink I/O processor, operating in NM Mode, functions as a
Network Manager, providing alarm outputs for a connected network of up to eight Silver Network
compatible devices. In NM Mode, the Silver devices do not require a connection to a PC running
Silver Network Manager software. Sensor alarms and supervision conditions are assigned to
UltraLink I/O outputs. When an alarm occurs on a connected sensor, the corresponding UltraLink
output is activated (see 00DA1003-002 UltraLink I/O for additional details).

Security factors
There are many important factors to consider when planning a perimeter security system:
•
•
Fence height - The fence must be high enough to present an effective barrier to climb-over
intrusions. It should also include climb-over deterrent hardware such as barbed wire or razor
ribbon (for flexible fences). Rigid fence types should incorporate a climb over deterrent in their
design (pointed stakes or pales). Senstar recommends that the minimum fence height for a
Senstar LM100 installation on a flexible fence type is 2.5 m (8 ft.). For rigid fence types the
minimum recommended fence height is 2 m (6.5 ft.).

•
Fence condition - the Senstar LM100 detects intrusions by sensing the minute vibrations
caused by an intrusion attempt. Therefore, the fence must be in good condition to prevent any
metal on metal contact or vibrations caused by environmental factors. It may be necessary to
upgrade or repair the perimeter fence to ensure it presents a sufficient barrier against climb
over and crawl under intrusions. If you are not sure of the suitability of your fence for a Senstar
LM100 system, Senstar recommends hiring a local fencing contractor to inspect, and if
required, repair the fence.

•
Fence length - The length of the fence, the number of fence posts and the fence post spacing
determine the number of luminaires required to provide adequate coverage. The maximum
recommended spacing for luminaires is 6 m (20 ft.). The minimum recommended spacing for
luminaires is 3 m (10 ft.). The minimum spacing provides the highest level of security.
Exceeding the maximum recommended spacing can result in areas with reduced detection
sensitivity and gaps in the lighting.
