UM-003 OPS243-A User Manual

OmniPreSense OPS243-A short range radar sensor has an easy to use API to control the output of the

sensor. Simple commands can be used to configure the operation and output information provided by

the sensor. Default settings are noted below. Upon powering on the module, the default settings are

used.

Installation Instructions

The OPS243-A provides a complete radar module on a single board. The coverage area or field of view

(FOV) for the OPS243-A is 20in the azimuth (horizontal) and 24elevation (vertical). Install the OPS243-

A facing the direction of the FOV to be covered. The antenna gain for the radar sensor is 11dBi.

Figure 1. OPS243-A Beamwidth

The OPS243-A can generally can be placed behind most any material (plastic, glass, wood, etc.) depending

on thickness. Typical applications will use plastics such as ABS or PVC at 3 or 6mm thickness. Some

materials will block the signal and the OPS243-A should not be placed behind these. Examples of these

are metal, concrete or brick.

Radar Sensor Types

OmniPreSense provides two different types of sensors, Doppler radar sensor reporting motion and speed

and FMCW radar sensors reporting range. The feature differences for these sensors is shown in Table 1.

The following API commands pertain to both types of sensors except for special cases. In these cases, this

document will call out the special command for either a Doppler (-A), FMCW (-B), or both Doppler and

FMCW (-C) radar.

Terminal Control

A simple Command Terminal can be used to control the module operation with the API commands.

Examples of simple but very useful Command Terminals are Tera Term and PuTTY.Both are free, open

source terminal tools for the PC/Mac which can easily connect to a serial port and accept data over USB

from the OmniPreSense module.

To begin using the OmniPreSense sensor, first download Tera Term or PuTTY onto your PC/Mac. With the

OmniPreSense sensor plugged into the USB port of your PC/Mac, start Tera Term or PuTTY. A

configuration window such as Figure 2 or Figure 3 will appear. Tera Term can detect the active COM port

(greyed out to right of Serial button if TCP/IP is selected). Select the Serial button and press OK.For

PuTTY, you’ll need to know which COM port is used, set its value, select the Serial button, and Open.

Figure 2. Tera Term Startup Menu

UM-003-A OPS243-A User Manual 3 OmniPreSense Corporation

Figure 3. PuTTY Startup Menu

Once connected, the data reported by the sensor will start streaming to the terminal when an object

either in motion appears (-A, -C Doppler radar sensors) or there are objects in the sensors field of view (-

B, -C FMCW radar) to report the range to. The default settings are shown in Table 2. If there is no object

moving in front of the sensor or it’s not pointing at any object, no data is reported or streamed to the

terminal. A simple wave of the hand will show data like that shown in Figure 4. Any of the API commands

can now be executed to change the output data or query the configuration.

Default Settings

The default settings of the module are set to provide solid performance over a wide range of applications.

Upon power-up the default settings are used, and operation begins. Future updates will allow the module

to retain the settings of the module from the last operation. The default settings are listed in Table 2.

Speed Operating Range (-A Doppler only)

The maximum speed reported is determined by the Sampling Frequency. For slow moving objects, a

sample rate of 5,000 (SV command) is perfectly fine. The default setting of 10,000 (SX command) provides

a detectable speed of up to 31.1 m/s (69.5 mph) while 20,000 (S2 command) provides up to 62.2 m/s

(139.1 mph). The resolution of the reported speed increases as the sample frequency goes down. The

range of values is summarized in Table 3.

Sampling Rate/Buffer Size (-A, -C Doppler only) –set these values to control the sample rate of the

module. This setting influences the output data and the rate at which the data is reported. The buffer

size influences the report rate and resolution. A buffer size of 512 will have a report rate between 5-30Hz.

The resolution becomes worse by a factor of two with a 512-buffer size versus 1024 (Figure 6) and worse

again at 256 buffer size.

Reported Speed/Range/Direction Filter –use these settings to set the range of data to report. Settings

are available for either a minimum or maximum value below or above which data will not be reported.

Commands are available to set speed, range, and direction of speed filters. These filters can be used to

help set sensitivity levels of detection. This command requires a return () after the number. Direction

filter allows reporting only a single direction or both.

a positive or negative number to set the frequency. T=0 is the default setting targeting 24.125GHz. Each

increment steps approximately 18MHz. The programming steps are limited to 24.0 through 24.25GHz for

the OPS243. The limits on nare -2 (~24.0GHz) to 2 (~24.25GHz) for the OPS243 which has some guard

banding to ensure it stays within the 24.0-24.25GHz ISM band. Depending on the spread between the

current frequency and the newly set frequency, there may be a long settling time on the order of 5-10

seconds or longer based on the size of the jump in values. Writing ?F will provide the current transmitter
