TASK: Employ REMBASS Sensors

CONDITIONS: The team leaders commands his team to emplace the sensors for operations.

STANDARDS: Emplace pre-programmed sensors at the designated site, to detect targets movements within the surveillance area, in support of the commander's priority information requirements (PIR) and information requirements (IR). There is no set time for this drill because the number and type of sensors in a string will vary, depending on the mission.

SUPPORTING INDIVIDUAL TASKS:

ILLUSTRATIONS: N/A.

SETUP INSTRUCTIONS: a. Resources: (1) Sensor(s), Anti-Intrusion DT-561/GSQ, DT-562/GSQ, DT-565/GSQ. (2) Monitor, Radio Frequency, R-2016/GSQ. (3) Entrenching tool. (4) Military map of the implant area. (5) Lensatic compass. (6) Blue or red lens flashlight (used only for completing the sketchmap at night). b. Training site. Tactical site in accordance with the operations order (OPORD). c. Opposing forces (OPFOR). None required. d. Unit instructions. (1) Soldiers receive an OPORD prior to departing for the mission site. (2) Battery is installed and sensors are programmed prior to departure for the mission site. (3) Battery installed in Radio Frequency Monitor R-2016/GSQ and set on the frequency programmed into sensors.

WALK-THROUGH INSTRUCTIONS:

a. Orientation. Your requirement is to train as a team emplacing REMBASS sensors for monitoring movement in the surveillance area. The equipment should accurately detect targets within the particular range of each sensors.

b. Safety. (1) Battery BA-5598/U.

(a) Do not mishandle the battery. DANGER: Do not short cells, try to charge, burn, take apart, crush case, or drop.

(b) Remove all combustibles from the battery storage area.

(c) If the equipment become hot, immediately shut off the equipment.

(d) Protect hands from burns when removing overheated battery from equipment. Allow equipment to cool if possible.

(e) Keep the battery as dry as possible.

(f) Do not discard battery. Turn in to defense property disposal office.

(g) Do not use the PSM-13 battery tester on this battery.

(h) Sensors. The sensors are easily damaged if not handled properly. CAUTION: Do not lift sensors by the antenna, antenna base or transducer cable. Use the nylon carrying strap on the sensors.

c. Demonstration (optional). If a nearby team has successfully completed Drill 1, request that the team give a demonstration. Use the performance steps as a guide to explain what is being done and why. Summarize the actions of the demonstration team.

d. Explanation.

(1) Use the performance steps as a guide. In your own words, explain the actions of each team member.

(2) Answers all questions about the operation procedures.

(3) Conduct the training in silence, except for commands.

(4) Conduct the training at the fastest pace possible.

(5) Insist that the team operate smoothly, efficiently, and safety.

(6) Practice the drill until all procedures are performed automatically and instantly.

PERFORMANCE MEASURES:

b. TEAM MEMBER 1: Places sensor in the hole.

7. Step 7.

a. TEAM LEADER: Records the sensor type, I.D. codes and channel on the sketchmap.

b. TEAM MEMBER 1:

(1) Turns on the mode switch.

8. Step 8.

a. TEAM LEADER: Records appropriate marginal information on the sketchmap.

b. TEAM MEMBER 1: Buries the transducer cable.

9. Step 9.

a. TEAM MEMBER 1: Verifies sensor test signal on the portable monitoring set.

10. Step 10.

a. TEAM LEADER: Determines sensor detections range if METT-T permits.

b. TEAM MEMBER 1: Buries and camouflages sensor.

NOTE: TEAM MOVES OUT TO NEXT LOCATION OR MONITORING SITE

11. Step 11.

a. TEAM LEADER: Recalls team member 2 from security position.

NOTE: TEAM MOVES OUT TO NEXT LOCATION OR MONITORING SITE NOTES: 1. This procedures is repeated for each sensor location. 2. The team leader ensures throughout the mission that team members 1 and 2 are performing duties properly. 3. The team member positions are interchangeable; each member on the team be must be proficient at all tasks.
