    1.0 CMA PRODUCT OVERVIEW 

    Congratulations on selecting Garre Metal Detectors’ Control Monitor Ana-lyze (CMA) Interface Module. The CMA is a multi-functional product designed

    to be used with specic Garre Walk-Through Metal Detector products. TheGarre CMA system is composed of a CMA Interface Module and client sowarethat operates on a user system. This system enables the user to remotely control metal detectors, monitor an unlimited number of walk-through units in real-time, andanalyze statistical graphs and data to beer respond to security needs at checkpoints.

      Garre Control Monitor Analyze (CMA) Interface Module  The CMA Interface Module (see Figure 1-A) contains memory and processing circuitry

    and allows connection to a personal computer (PC) or to a computer network via a 10-Base-T interface.

      Garre CMAConnect Soware  The CMAConnect soware provides remote network access to data collection, alarm

    statistics and real-time detector events for monitoring and / or analyzing. When con-nected to a 10-Base T network, the walk-through unit can be remotely monitored andcontrolled from any location around the world.

    2.0 INSTALLATION TIPS

      • Operation of this product is established by the supplied version of server rmwareand client soware. Information about the rmware version may be found on theinstallation CD and on the exterior of the module.

    Figure 4-A

      A user supplied CAT 5 Network cable will be required to connect each CMA directlyto the computer or to the network via a hub or router. If connecting directly to acomputer without a hub or router, it will be necessary to use a “Crossover” type cableto achieve a successful connection. The Network Connectivity LED on the CMA will

    indicate the successful connection to the computer or network.

    The CMAConnect soware requires a static IP address to be assigned to each in-dividual CMA module. Initially each CMA is assigned the default IP Address of192.168.0.192. To communicate properly it is necessary for the computer and all CMAsto have unique but compatible IP Addresses. There are several ways to achieve this.

    Method 1: If the computer is not on a network, its IP Address may be set to 192.168.0.1. Themethod to achieve this will vary depending on the operating system that is installedon the computer. If more than one CMA is aached to the local network it will be nec-

    essary to assign a unique IP Address to each CMA. It is necessary to only change thelast block of the IP Address to a unique number in the range of 2 to 255. The methodis described in Section 5.3.

    Method 2: If the installation uses a local area network with an existing IP Address it will be nec-essary to congure the CMA to be compatible with the network. Typically this may beachieved by changing the rst three blocks of the CMA’s IP address to match that ofthe existing computer network. This may be performed using the method describedin Section 5.3.

    Method 3: If the installation uses a wide area network, some additional conguration will beneeded to insure the IP Address and the Gateway of each CMA is compatible with thenetwork. This may be achieved by using the Network Conguration buon describedin Section 5.2.

    desktop. The rst screen you see will ask you to choose between Full Access and Lim-ited Access.

    5.1  ACCESS TYPES

      There are two access types available with the CMAConnect soware (see Figure 5-A):

    5.1.1 FULL ACCESS – This option enables you to completely manage your network of walk-throughs. You can set up walkthroughs, network parameters, groups, and seings aswell as download and analyze data from connected walkthroughs. Live monitoringof walkthroughs is also possible in this mode. This mode provides you with access toall available features of the client soware. The full access mode is secured by a pass-

    word (see Figure 5-B). Factory default password is admin.

      Note: This password allows access to the CMAConnect client soware and all walk-through metal detectors that have been connected to this client in previous sessions.

    Note: To reset password to factory default, navigate to your “CMAConnect” folder onthe hard drive (see Section 4.2.2). Run “ResetPassword.jar” (by double-clicking on itsicon). You will be asked to conrm the password reset.

      5.1.2  LIMITED ACCESS  This option enables you to monitor connected walkthroughs. Downloading and anal-

    ysis of walkthrough data is also possible in this mode. This option does not requireyou to enter a password.

      Note: All the following instructions refer to the FULL ACCESS mode of operation.LIMITED ACCESS mode only allows viewing of real-time data and download andanalysis of information.

      5.2 CONNECTING TO METAL DETECTORS

      Select the le most tab—“Network Setup”.

    Figure 5-C

      5.2.1 Click the “Find WTMDs” buon.  This will populate the table with each metal detector with an active CMA that is cur-

    rently installed and operating in your network. The address of the host computer

    (your machine) is displayed in the upper right corner of the window.

    Note: If you use multiple CMAs on your network, go to Section 5.3 to assign unique IPaddresses.

      Note: If the CMA you wish to connect is properly congured for the network, but doesnot show in the table, please go to section 5.7 to add metal detector.

      5.2.2 The detector’s location, position, IP address, MAC address and connection status isdisplayed. The serial number of the WTMD is also shown along with the current dateand time on the CMA. Click on the detector you wish to add and then select Connect.(See Section 4.3 “Network Conguration” for more details.)

      5.2.3 The system will ask you to type in your password before connecting. The factory de-fault password on all CMAs is 5678.

      5.2.4 Continue to add other listed detectors as needed by this same process. Remember toassign a unique IP address to each CMA before connecting.

    5.2.5 If the available CMAs do not display, it may be the result of one or more of the follow-ing conditions:

      • A crossover cable was not used when connecting directly to a computer.  • There is a fault in the network.  • The CMA was not able to respond to the discovery request in the available time.

    Click “Find WTMDs” again.  • A rewall is active on the computer preventing proper communication. It may be

    necessary to switch the rewall o during installation.  • The CMA is not on the local network and a router or gateway is blocking the setup

    communication. It may be necessary to make a direct connection to the CMA toallow proper conguration of network parameters before installing on network.

      • The computer has multiple network cards. Connect CMA to the primary network.  • A duplicate IP address was assigned. Have a network administrator verify all

    connected and reserved IP addresses.

      • The server soware on the CMA is an older version (2.2 or earlier). Contact thefactory for information on upgrading the CMA.

      5.3 ASSIGN OR CHANGE IP ADDRESSES

      If you use multiple CMAs on your network, it is necessary to assign a unique IPaddress to each CMA before the CMA is added to the desktop.

    Note: If you have questions about parameter values or advanced network congura-tion, contact your network administrator for assistance.

      5.3.1 To assign a unique IP address (or to change an IP address) click the “Network Setup”tab at top-le of screen. In this window, click “Find WTMDs”.

    5.3.2 Click on a CMA that needs a new IP address. Then click on “Change IP Address” onle. The next window that appears will have a message:“Note: Contact your network administrator for any of the following parameters.”(See Figure 5-D.)

      You can also change some seings for a group of WTMDs. To start this process, selectthe group from the list on the le. This will show all the WTMDs in the selected groupin the table. Now, to change a seing, double-click the column heading. For example ,if you wanted to set the base sensitivity of all WTMDs in a group to a single value, youwould double-click the “Base Sensitivity” column heading.

      This works in the same fashion as changing individual WTMD seings, but the changeis applied to all the WTMDs in the selected group.

      Note: Some seings may only be changed for individual WTMDs.

    8.0 DATA HISTORY

      Garre’s CMAConnect soware allows you to analyze multiple detectors at the sametime. This allows analysis by lane, checkpoint or location to understand trac loadsand alarm rates over specic periods.

      8.1 DOWNLOAD TO COMPUTER

      Before analyzing stored data from one or more WTMDs with CMAConnect, you mustrst download this information from each detector.

      Go to the “WTMD Seings” window. Select the group (or WTMD) from which youwish to download data. Click the “View Throughput History” buon in the boomright corner of the window.

    The prompt asks, “The le download process works in the background and may takeup to several minutes to complete. Do you wish to continue?” (See Figure 8-A.)

      Click on the “Yes” buon and wait while the data is downloaded. If you click “No” buon, data will not be downloaded and you will be directly shown the throughputgraph and analysis window. Clicking “Yes” ensures that you analyze the latest statis-

    tics from the chosen WTMDs.

      A window will appear which tells you that the data download is in progress (seeFigure 8-B). You can continue other work by minimizing this window. Once data down-load completes, this window will disappear. Now you will see the Throughput Graphwindow.

      Note: Data will be downloaded only from selected WTMD(s).

      Note: The les from all metal detectors are downloaded to the CMAConnect direc-tory at the location it was installed on your computer. You may use the computer’sle management tools to delete, archive or copy these les to another computer. Oncecopied, these les may be analyzed without an active connection to the CMA.

      8.2 VIEW ACTIVITY AND STATISTICS

      Once you have downloaded data from a group or WTMD, the Throughput Graphwindow will be shown as a data table (see Figure 8-C).

      If you selected a particular group or WTMD before you clicked “View ThroughputHistory”, those particular units will be selected and their data will be ploed on thegraph. The selected units will show in the lower portion of the window with high-lighted background. You may change the selection at any time.

    You will notice that as you select or deselect a unit, the data from all the selected unitswill be populated on the table above. The table adjusts its date range when a detectoris selected or deselected. The “Start Date” and “End Date” values are shown at the topof the window. They are changed to show the range for which data is available. Youmay change these dates to allow analysis to specic date ranges.

      As with the individual unit analysis, this table displays times in military format from00:00 to 24:00. For each hourly unit of time, the green vertical bar represents the Counttotals, while the red vertical bar represents the Alarm totals for the detectors you haveselected. The percentage of alarms to total passes – throughput - for each hourly time

    frame is displayed as a red percentage number at the boom of each hourly bar (ifcounts were registered during that time increment).

      This chart (Figure 8-D) represents the total data for each of the selected detectors. Eachselected unit’s serial number is highlighted and all the available serial numbers arelisted at the boom of the screen.

      The hourly throughput value (%) can help evaluation and determination of the properow of trac through the metal detectors. If one unit has a particularly low numberof passes, the Supervisor can investigate the cause with the operators. Similarly, if onedetector has a very high alarm rate, the Supervisor should review the environment ofthe metal detector and may wish to study the pre-screening procedures of the sta.

      To revise your search, click “Clear Selection” near the boom right of the screen toget a blank screen. Then, select the desired detector, enter your date range and clickDisplay to show your revised timeline search.

      8.3 INSTRUCTIONS: HOW TO IMPORT COUNT DATA INTO EXCEL

      8.3.1 Open Microso Excel.

      8.3.2 Under the File Menu, select Open. Navigate to the walkthrough folder that has therelevant counts. By default, your data les are stored on your local hard drive. In this

    case, go to the CMAConnect folder on your hard drive and open the “Files” folder.Select the walk-through detector which you wish to examine and open that folder.

      8.3.3 To open a le within the walkthrough folder, make sure to change the “Files of Type”menu box at the boom to read “Text Files.” (This le name will include only thewalkthrough’s serial number with no date information following the serial number.)Select this le and then click Open. The Text Import Wizard window should openup.

    8.3.4 Do not change anything in this dialog. File Type should be: “Delimited”. In the “Startimport at row” selection box, choose “1”. The “File origin” will be based on the con-

    guration of your system. Click Next.

      8.3.5 Under “delimiters” uncheck “Tab” as the delimiter and check “Other.” In the boxprovided, type “:” (just a colon symbol without quote marks). Click Next.

      8.3.6 Click on the rst column in the “Data Preview” box to highlight it. Under “columndata format” select “Text.” The other columns may be le as “General”. Click Finishto get table of data.

      8.3.7 The data begins on line 3 with the rst column being the date and hour of the recorded

    events. Example: 200706080800 indicates the information for June 8, 2007, between8:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m. The second column indicates the number of alarms that wererecorded. The third column is the total number of persons passing through the arch-way.

      8.4 VIEW SETTINGS LOG FILE  The CMA continuously records important activity and seing value changes on the

    metal detector. This data is stored in monthly log les on the CMA. This data needs to be downloaded before it can be viewed. Once downloaded, these les may be trans-ferred to other computers and analyzed without an active connection to the CMA.

    To download and view the latest Log les, go to the “WTMD Seings” window byclicking the appropriate tab in the top le corner. Now click the “View Access & Set-tings History” buon in the boom right corner of the screen. Data is downloadedfrom the selected group or WTMD only. Conrm your selection before you click the buon.

      You will see a prompt similar to when downloading Throughput History. The promptasks, “The le download process works in the background and may take up to severalminutes to complete. Do you wish to continue?”

      Click on the “Yes” buon and wait while the data is downloaded. If you click “No” buon, data will not be downloaded and you will be directly shown the le view-ing window with the currently available les listed. Clicking “Yes” ensures that youanalyze the latest access and seings history from the chosen WTMDs.

      A window will appear which tells you that the data download is in progress. You cancontinue other work by minimizing this window. Once data download completes, thiswindow will disappear. Now you will see the File Viewer window. (See Figure 8-E)

      Note: Data will be downloaded only from selected WTMD(s).

      The File Viewer window provides you with two lists—WTMDs and Files. To view aparticular le, rst select the WTMD from the “Select a WTMD” drop-down box byclicking on the downward arrow. Once a WTMD is selected, the les list is populatedwith available les from the chosen WTMD. You can now select a le to view. Files arenamed aer the year and month they represent. So, for example, a le that has datafrom November 2008 would be named 200811.log.

     

    Once you have selected a log le, the log le will be displayed in the area provided.Some of the important parameters shown in the log le include

     

    • IP Address of detector  • Location of detector  • Position of detector

      • Serial Number of detector  • Status changes

      Status changes include data entries for each time detector was turned o or on andevery time an Administrator logged in to make changes to that unit.

    Each open le may be printed to a printer of your choice by opening the le and thenclicking the “Print” buon in the boom right corner of the window. This brings upthe printer selection dialog box. Select the printer of your choice and continue to printthe le.
