The signal processor distinguishes between climb-over and cut-through attempts with a single alarm output. An
audio capability option is available for listening to physical disturbances of the fence.
(c) Taut-Wire Fence Sensor (TWFS). The TWFS is an exterior, tensioned, barbed wire displacement sensing
sensor capable of detecting attempts by a fence climbing or wire cutting intruder. In application, multiple strands of
the wire and tensioning devices are attached to either vertical or Y configured outriggers attached to the fence. The
sensor alarms when a lateral force of 60 pounds or more is applied to any strand of the barbed wire or when any
strand is laterally deflected 6 inches or more.
