- Visibility is restricted from WSA LDA due to fogging of the lenses of the CCTV system.
- Loss of Area/Perimeter Lighting at WSA: Notify all posted patrols to increase coverage of their area of responsibility. 90 CES must provide an emergency response when two or more consecutive WSA perimeter lights are inoperative; an entire section of WSA interior lighting is inoperative; ten percent (11 or more) of the total lighting is inoperative; or ten percent (7 or more) of the perimeter lighting is inoperative.
- Visibility is one-half of a mile or less from any point of a moving Protection Level 1 resource.

warning by MSC.

Describe the IPIDS sensor.
The IPIDS sensor sends an infrared beam from the top-transmitting sensor to the top-receiving sensor. The beam is received and signal boosted then sent to the next level transmitter to be sent to the receiver. The beam continues until it completes the cycle through the entire rack and then starts again. An alarm is generated when the beam is broken.
Describe the permitrax sensor system.
It is based on ported leaky coaxial cable technology. Sensor cables buried around the perimeter of a site carry radio-frequency signals along the path of the cables. These signals form an invisible electromagnetic detection field around the cables that can detect the presence of an intruder crossing it. Sensor Modules house the necessary electronics to monitor the detection field created by the radio-frequency signals and to raise an alarm if an intruder enters the detection field.

The BMS is a passive mechanical sensor system employed on all doors and hatches of bays, igloos and structures capable of storing PL 1 resources. This sensor will not self-test.
Describe the PIRAMID alarm.
Passive Infrared and Microwave Intruder Detector (PIRAMID) uses a combination of microwave and passive infrared sensors to detect both the motion and the body heat of an intruder.

What does PIRAMID stand for when referring to ESS?
Passive Infrared and Microwave Intruder Detector
What Is the detection capability of the PIRAMID sensor?
Detects motion through the use of doppler microwave and passive infrared signals. Detected changes in temperature swings caused by possible intruder through the passive infrared signal. PIRAMID must get a detection on both sensors (microwave and PIR) to trigger the master alarm and initiate a SAM to the annunciator.
The BMS must alarm at the smallest break possible but not to exceed what distance?

Security force members always establish an all-around (360 degree) cordon at hostage and anti-hijack scenes.
What does the size of a cordon depend on?
How far these perimeters are established from the scene depends on the scope, complexity and location of the incident.
Why is an outer perimeter established for hostage situation cordons?
The outer perimeter is established to prevent people from interfering with recovery operations and to keep innocent bystanders and onlookers from being hurt.
