AXIS D2110-VE Security Radar

The user manual is set up to help you use your radar depending on what you want it to do. AXIS D2110-VE Security Radar has two profiles:

• Area monitoring profile to track both large and small objects moving at speeds lower than 55 km/h (34 mph)

• Road monitoring profile to track vehicles moving at speeds up to 105 km/h (65 mph)

Any information in this user manual that does not fall under Area monitoring profile or Road monitoring profile is common to both profiles and can be referenced regardless of which one you use.

• The radar is intended for monitoring open areas. Any solid object (such as a wall, a fence, a tree, or a large bush) in the coverage area will create a blind spot (radar shadow) behind it.

• Install the radar on a stable pole or a spot on a wall where there are no other objects or installations. Objects within 1 m (3 ft) to the left and right of the radar, that reflect radio waves, affect the performance of the radar.

• Metal objects in the field of view causes reflections that affects the ability of the radar to perform classifications.

• If you want to install more than two radars in the same coexistence zone, see Install multiple radars.

The AXIS D2110–VE has a horizontal area coverage of 180°. The detection range corresponds to 5600 m² (61000 ft²) for humans and 11300 m² (122000 ft²) for vehicles.

Area monitoring profile is best used for objects moving at up to 55 km/h (34 mph). This profile allows you to detect whether an object is human, vehicle, or unknown. A rule can be set to trigger an event when any of these objects is detected. If you want to track only vehicles, you should use the Road monitoring profile.

You can install multiple radars to cover areas such as the surroundings of a building or the buffer zone outside a fence.

Coexistence

When you place more than two radars within the same coexistence zone, the radio waves from the radars within the zone can cause interference and affect the performance. The coexistence zone radius is 350 m (380 yd).

When you place two or three radars in the same coexistence zone, you need to define the number of neighboring radars in the device interface. This helps to improve the performance of the radars and to avoid interference.

1. New device interface:

2. Go to Radar > Settings > Coexistence.

3. Select the number of neighboring radars.

1. Legacy device interface:

2. Go to Settings > Radar > General.

3. Select the number of neighboring radars under Coexistence.

See Area installation examples for examples of installations with multiple radars.

When you mount four to six radars in the same coexistence zone, first set the number of neighboring radars, then add each radar into a group. Start with the radar that is installed farthest away, for example the one farthest to your left. Add the radars in groups of three and add the radars that are closest to each other in the same group.

The radars within the group will sync with each other to optimize the performance and avoid interference between each other.

1. New device interface:

2. Go to Radar > Settings > Coexistence.

3. Set the number of neighboring radars to 3–5.

4. Select a group for your radar.

1. Legacy device interface:

2. Go to Settings > Radar > General.

3. Set the number of neighboring radars to 3–5 under Coexistence.

4. Select a group for your radar.

See Area installation examples for more examples of installations with multiple radars.

Create a virtual fence with multiple radars

To create a virtual fence, for example along or around a building, you can place multiple radars side-by-side. We recommend placing them with 100 m (330 ft) spacing.

To avoid interference when you mount more than two radars in the same coexistence zone, set the number of neighboring radars in the device interface. Additionally, when you mount more than three radars, add each radar into a group.

You can adjust the virtual fence to cover corners as well, as illustrated in this example.

See Install multiple radars for more information about neighboring radars and groups.

Cover an area around a building

To cover the area around a building, place the radars on the walls of the building facing outwards. If you are placing more than three radars in the same coexistence zone, set the number of neighboring radars in the device interface and add each radar into a group, as illustrated in this example.

You can also cover the area around multiple buildings.

See Install multiple radars for more information about neighboring radars and groups.

Cover an open area

To cover a large open area, use two pole mounts to place two radars back-to-back.

You can use the PoE output from one radar to power the second radar, but it’s not possible to connect a third radar this way.

If you require several back-to-back installations in the same coexistence zone, set the number of neighboring radars in the device interface and add each radar into a group to avoid interference. This is one example of how you can group your radars in a back-to-back installation.

See Install multiple radars for more information about neighboring radars and groups.

Install multiple radars facing each other

In general, it is not recommended to install more than three radars facing each other since this increases the risk of interference between the radars. However, in some specific areas it can be necessary. If you want to cover a football field for example, you can’t place radars in the middle of the field.

If you install more than three radars facing each other, the minimum distance from one radar to another needs to be 40 meters (130 ft). It is also especially important to set the number of neighboring radars in the device interface and add each radar into a group. This will help to improve the performance of the radars.

This is an example of how to group four radars covering a field.

See Install multiple radars for more information about neighboring radars and groups.

Detection range is the distance within which an object can be tracked and can trigger an alarm. It is measured from near detection limit (how close to the device a detection can be made) to a far detection limit (how far from the device a detection can be made).

The Area monitoring profile is optimized for human detection, however, it will also allow you to track vehicles and other objects moving at up to 55 km/h (34 mph) with a velocity accuracy of +/- 2 km/h (1.24 mph).

When mounted at the optimal installation height, the detection ranges are:

• 3–60 m (10–200 ft) when detecting a human

• 3–85 m (10–280 ft) when detecting a vehicle

• The detection range was measured under these conditions:

• The range was measured along the ground.

• The object was a 170 cm (5 ft 7 in) tall person.

• The person was walking straight in front of the radar.

• The values are measured when the person enters the detection zone.

• The radar sensitivity was set to Medium.

Swimming pool area coverage

A public swimming pool has had a series of intrusions after hours. Due to the private nature of the business, the owners cannot install video surveillance. They have chosen to install a radar and set it up in the Area monitoring profile. The radar is mounted on the building and covers the whole swimming pool and most of the area around it. It triggers a warning from a speaker when a human is detected between closing at 20:00 and opening at 06:00.

Cover the field around a building

A chemical factory adds another layer of security to their system by using radars to cover the area around a sensitive building. The security system already includes cameras, thermal cameras and door controllers. Radars can trigger events that cause cameras to track the intruder, zoom in, and record activity. Flashing beacons, linked to thermal cameras, are triggered to flash so the intruder knows that the area is protected. And door controllers can restrict access. The radars help the defence system move into action long before the intruder has reached the sensitive building.

Cover a large open area

A parking lot outside a small shopping center has had increased vehicle break-ins after hours. They have one security guard on duty at a time but feel they need to bolster their security at night without the added cost of hiring more staff. They have decided to install two security radars, in the Area monitoring profile, mounted back-to-back so that they cover the entire parking area. The radars are configured to alert the on-duty security guard of suspicious behavior so that they can investigate the scene. They could also install a horn speaker that is triggered by the radars to play an alert that may deter thieves.

The Road monitoring profile is best used to track vehicles moving at up to 105 km/h (65 mph) in urban zones, closed zones, and on sub-urban roads. This mode should not be used for detection of humans or other types of objects. To track objects other than vehicles, use your radar in the Area monitoring profile.

Side mounted

To monitor vehicles travelling along a road you can mount the radar on to the side of the road. The radar will provide a lateral coverage distance of 10 m (32 ft).

Center mounted

This mounting option requires a stable position. The radar can be mounted on a pole in the middle of the road or on a bridge above the road. The radar will then provide a lateral coverage distance of 10 m (32 ft) to both sides of the radar. The radar covers a broader lateral distance when center mounted.

Detection range is the distance within which an object can be tracked and can trigger an alarm. It is measured from near detection limit (how close to the device a detection can be made) to a far detection limit (how far from the device a detection can be made).

This profile is optimized for detection of vehicles and will produce a velocity accuracy of +/- 2 km/h (1.24 mph) when monitoring vehicles moving at up to 105 km/h (65 mph).

Detection range when the radar is mounted at an optimal installation height:

• 25–70 m (82–229 ft) for vehicles moving at 60 km/h (37 mph).

• 30–60 m (98–196 ft) for vehicles moving at 105 km/h (65 mph).

Regulating vehicles in low speed zones

An industrial complex with a long road between two warehouses has installed a radar to help enforce a speed limit of 60 km/h (37 mph). In the Road monitoring profile, the radar can detect when a vehicle in its detection zone exceeds that speed. It then triggers an event which sends an email notifications to drivers and managers. The reminder helps increase compliance with the speed restrictions.

Unwanted vehicles on a closed road

A small road out to an old quarry has been closed, however, reports of vehicles driving on the road have resulted in authorities installing a security radar in the Road monitoring profile. The radar is mounted alongside the road and covers the entire width of the road. Whenever a vehicle enters the include zone, it triggers a flashing beacon that warns drivers to leave the road. It also sends a message to the security team so that they can dispatch a unit if needed.

Speed awareness on the road

A road that passes through a small town has had some incidents of speeding. To enforce the speed limit of 70 km/h (43 mph), the traffic control has installed a security radar, in the Road monitoring profile, on a bridge that crosses over the road. This has allowed them to detect the speed that vehicles are travelling at and monitor when they should have units stationed long the road to control the traffic.

Safety with humans and vehicles

Staff at a school have identified two safety issues that they would like to address. They have experienced unwanted visitors entering the premises during the school day, as well as vehicles violating the low speed zone of 20 km/h (12 mph) outside the school. The radar is mounted on a pole, next to the pedestrian walk path. The Area monitoring profile was chosen, as it makes the radar capable of tracking both humans and vehicles moving at speeds lower than 55 km/h (34 mph). This helps the staff keep track of people coming and going during school hours while also being able to trigger a speaker to warn pedestrians when a passing vehicle is driving too fast.

• Don’t expose the password.

• Change the password at a recurring interval, at least once a year.

The radar is ready to use as soon as it is installed. The default live view will show the radar coverage and any detected movement, and you can add detection zones and rules right away.

If the radar is mounted 3.5 m (11 ft) above ground, there is no need to do anything else. If the radar is mounted on a different height you need to calibrate the radar to compensate for the mounting height.

To make it easier to see where objects are moving, you can upload a reference map, for example a ground plan or an aerial photo, that shows the area covered by the radar.

• Image requirements:

• Supported file formats are jpeg and png.

• The image can be cropped in the radar.

• The image can be rotated ±35° in the radar.

• The orientation is not important, since the radar coverage shape will move to adapt to the image during calibration.

After uploading the reference map you need to calibrate the reference map so that the actual radar coverage fits the position, direction and scale of the reference map.

Calibration is performed in the web interface by clicking in the reference map. You don’t need physical access to the site.

1. To configure the radar, go to Settings > Radar > Calibration, click Start and follow the instructions of the step-by-step guide.

To determine where to detect motion, you can add multiple zones. Different zones can be used to trigger different actions.

• There are two types of zones:

• An include zone is an area in which moving objects will trigger rules. The default include zone matches the entire area covered by the radar.

• An exclude zone is an area in which moving objects will be ignored. Use exclude zones if there are areas inside an include zone that trigger a lot of unwanted alarms.

Objects of radar-reflective materials, such as metal roofs, fences, vehicles, and even brick walls may disturb the radar’s performance. They may create reflections which cause apparent detections that can be difficult to separate from real detections.

1. To avoid unwanted detections, set up an exclude zone.

1. Go to Settings > RMD zones and click .

2. Select Include zone.

3. Select to modify the settings of the zone. For more information, see the product’s built in help.

It is possible to use the information about objects’ positions from the radar to make a PTZ camera track objects.

• There are two ways to do this:

• Use the built-in Radar autotracking. Use this option when you have one PTZ camera and one radar mounted very close together. This option creates an edge to edge solution where the radar directly controls the camera.

• 1. Go to Settings > System > Radar autotracking.

  2. Enter the IP address, username and password for the PTZ camera.

  3. Click Connect and follow the instructions.

• Note

  The camera must be installed directly above or below the radar.

  The application does not use the include zones in the radar. It uses the entire radar coverage, except exclude zones, to detect motion.

• Use the Windows^® application AXIS Radar Autotracking for PTZ, to use multiple cameras with multiple radars. Download AXIS Radar Autotracking for PTZ from axis.com and follow the instructions in the application to install on your VMS server (or another computer with access to both the camera and the radar).

  This is a server-based solution that can handle different setups:

• • Control several PTZ cameras with one radar.

  • Control one PTZ camera with several radars.

  • Control several PTZ cameras with several radars.

  • Control one PTZ camera with one radar when they are mounted in different positions covering the same area.

If you notice that you get too many false alarms, you can filter out certain types of movement or objects, change the coverage, or adjust the detection sensitivity. Test which settings work best for your environment.

• Adjust the detection sensitivity:

  Go to Settings > Radar > Detection and select a lower Detection sensitivity. This decreases the risk of false alarms, but it could also cause the radar to miss some movement. The sensitivity setting affects all zones.

• • Low: Use this sensitivity when there are a lot of metal objects or large vehicles in the area. It will take longer time for the radar to track and classify objects. This can reduce the detection range, especially for fast moving objects.

  • High: Use this sensitivity when you have an open field without metal objects in front of the radar. This will increase the detection range for humans.

• Modify the include and exclude zones:

  If the include zone includes hard surfaces, such as a metal wall, there may be reflections that causes multiple detections for a single physical object. In this case, modify the include zone, see Modify a detection zone, or add an exclude zone that masks everything behind the surface, see Add an exclude zone.

• Filter on movement:

  Go to Settings > Radar > Detection and select Ignore swaying objects. This setting will minimize false alarms from trees, bushes, and flagpoles in the coverage zone.

• Filter on time:

  Go to Settings > RMD zones and select a zone to modify its settings.

  Enable Short-lived object and set a delay time from when the radar starts tracking an object until it can trigger and alarm. The timer starts when the radar first detects the object, not when the object enters the include zone.

• Filter on object type:

  The radar will classify objects depending on the radar echo that they produce. If it can’t determine the object type, the object will be classified as Unknown.

  Go to Settings > RMD zones and select a zone to modify its settings.

  To avoid triggering on specific object types, enable the filter and deselect the object types that should not trigger events in this zone.

The radar is ready to use as soon as it is installed, however, we recommend that you perform a validation before you start to use it. This can increase the accuracy of the radar by helping you to identify any problems with the installation or manage objects (such as trees and reflective surfaces) in the scene.

First Calibrate the radar before attempting the validation.

It is a good idea to perform the validation whenever:

• There are objects in the scene that you want to exclude so that the zones can contain certain objects such as vegetations or metal surfaces.

• You pair the radar with a PTZ camera and want to configure Radar autotracking.

• The radar mounting height is changed.

Check there are no false detections

1. Check that the include zone of the radar is clear from human activity.

2. Wait for a few minutes to ensure the radar is not detecting any static objects in the included RMD (Radar Motion Detection) zones.

3. If there are no unwanted detections you can skip step 4.

4. If there are unwanted detections, learn how to filter out certain types of movement or objects, change the coverage, or adjust the detection sensitivity in How to minimize false alarms.

Check for the correct symbol and direction of travel when the radar is approached from the front

1. Go into the radar’s web interface and choose to record the session. For help doing this go to Record and watch video.

2. Begin 60 m (197 ft) in front of the radar and walk directly towards the radar.

3. Check the session on the radar’s web interface. The symbol for a human classification should appear when you are detected.

4. Check that the radar’s web interface shows the correct direction of travel.

Check for the correct symbol and direction of travel when the radar is crossed

1. Go into the radar’s web interface and choose to record the session. For help doing this go to Record and watch video.

2. Begin 60 m (197 ft) out from the radar and walk straight across the radar.

3. Check that the radar’s web interface shows the symbol for a human classification.

4. Check that the radar’s web interface shows the correct direction of travel.

Create a table similar to the one below to help you record the data from your validation.

Once you have successfully completed the first part of the validation, you should perform the following tests to complete the validation process.

1. Make sure you have configured your radar and followed the instructions.

2. For further validation, Calibrate the radar.

3. Set the radar include zone to trigger to when an appropriate object is detected. By default, the prebuffer is set to two seconds but you can you can change this in the web interface if needed.

4. Set the radar to How to record radar data when motion is detected when an appropriate object is detected.

5. Set the trial lifetime to one hour so that it will safely exceed the time it takes for you to leave your seat, walk around the area of surveillance, and return to your seat. The trial lifetime will keep the track in the radar's live view for the set time and, once you have finished the validation, it can be disabled.

6. Walk along the border of the radar coverage area and make sure that the trailing on the system matches the route that you walked.

7. If you are unsatisfied with the results of your validation, you should re-calibrate the reference map and repeat the validation.
