Radar Safety and Transmit Exposure
The Fortem TrueView radar is an electronic device that produces radio frequency (RF) emissions
to perform RAdio Detection And Ranging (RADAR). Care should be taken to ensure two safety
factors:
1. Personnel safety: Ensure the radar is pointing in a safe direction where people in close
proximity (within 3 ft) are not directly exposed to the RF energy for sustained periods of
time (>30 min).
2. Equipment safety: Ensure that the radar is not too close (within 6 ft) to other materials
that produce strong RF reflections back into the receive (RX) antenna, particularly during
indoor testing. This includes sheet metal, steel reinforced walls, corner reflectors etc.
A transmitting radar can also get warm to the touch. For this reason, evaluation units are
shipped with an evaluation stand that provides a small amount of airflow to reduce the exterior
temperature of the unit in indoor or static testing scenarios. Suggested best practice is to use
the TrueView user interface to turn off transmit when not actively testing radar detection.
Note, TrueView radar is designed to operate between -20ºC to 50ºC (-4º F to 122ºF) ambient
temperature.
Please do not hesitate to contact customer support if you have any questions regarding setup
or operation of your TrueView Radar.

2 Physical Set Up
The following steps will walk you through the initial setup of your radar for bench testing:
1. Attach the supplied Ethernet and power cables to the back of the radar unit
a. Be sure to line up the arrows on the connectors as shown:
b. Connect the flat 6-pin connector to the INS unit, as shown:
2. Connect the GPS antenna to the INS unit by screwing it onto the SMA connector
3. Plug in the external power supply to a wall outlet
a. Use the other end to plug into the power cable for the radar

1. The radar unit will begin boot up when connected to power via
the DC power connector.
4. Connect the Ethernet cable by plugging in the Hirosi end into the radar and the RJ-45
end of the ethernet cable directly to your computer/laptop or to a DHCP enabled router.
(See the FAQ for more details)
5. Turn on the computer and open a web browser and navigate to the radars IP address
(see below)
3 Fortem TrueView Radar Graphical User Interface
Once the radar unit is powered on and connected via ethernet to your computer, you can
connect to the TrueView Graphical User Interface to interact with the radar. The TrueView GUI
is accessed through a web browser. The latest versions of Chrome, Firefox, Safari have all been
tested and are supported. The URL for the TrueView GUI is:
http://[Radar IP Address
]:3030
3.1 Connecting to your radar
In order to connect to your radar via the ethernet port you will need to know the IP address of
the radar. The Fortem TrueView Radar is shipped with three IP address settings:
●Static IPv4 Address
●Static IPv6 Address
●DHCP IPv4
Connecting to the Static IPv4 Address
Your TrueView Radar is configured with a static IPv4 address on the following network:
IP Address Range: 172.16+n.0xx.0yy where the serial number is in the format
R20-Anxxyy as seen in the figure below.
So using the example in the picture below, the IPv4 Address would be:
- 172.16.0.4
9
Connecting to the Static IPv6 address
Your Fortem TrueView Radar is also configured with a static IPv6 address on the following
network:
IP Address Range: fd46:6f72:746d::1:0:<serial number>
Prefix Length: /64
Connecting to a DHCP address
To connect to your TrueView radar via DCHP, you will need the following:
● A DHCP enabled router
○ You will need a username and password to login to your router
● Ethernet cable(s) to connect to your computer
● A DHCP enabled computer
To determine the IP address of your radar unit, as assigned by DCHP, follow these
steps:
1. Plug both the radar unit and your computer into the router
2. Log in to your router’s admin page via a web browser
▪If you are unsure how to do this, see the following:
http://www.broadbandexpert.com/wireless-internet/networking-advice/
finding-and-accessing-your-routers-admin-panel-console
3. Find the page that lists devices connected to your router
4. Find the IP address assigned to the device named “Fortem-R20-Anxxyy
”, where
nxxyy are the 5 digits of your TrueView radar serial number
Once you know what IP address it was assigned, you can connect to the TrueView
Graphical User Interface using the same URL as above:
http://[Radar IP Address
]:3030
Also note, the Radar User Interface will allow you to setup one other custom Static IPv4 address
of your choosing. Please refer to the Radar User Interface for instructions if you require a
custom IP address for your situation.
3.2 Connecting to the radar web interface
Use your browser to navigate to the IP address of the radar on port 3030.
