Its ability reads: "Tap an untapped Gate you control: This enchantment deals 1 damage to each opponent."
Crackling Perimeter has a mana cost of {1}{R}, which equals 2.0 total mana (converted mana cost/mana value).
It requires R mana to cast.
Mana cost is the amount and type of mana required to cast a spell in Magic: The Gathering.
Crackling Perimeter's mana cost of {1}{R} means you need to pay that much mana from your lands or other sources.

Converted mana cost (now officially called "mana value") is the total amount of mana in a card's mana cost, regardless of color.
