Unpacking the WAVEXpress/BTS
The WAVEXpress/BTS was packed with great care, and all containers were inspected prior to shipment. Upon receipt
of these packages, immediately inspect the outside of the shipping containers. If there is any visible damage, insist that
a representative of the carrier be present when unpacking the contents.
Carefully inspect the system as it is unpacked. If any damage such as dents or broken connections is noticeable,
immediately notify the carrier as well as the interWAVE Communications Solution Center.
Store the shipping containers for future use. If the unit has to be returned for upgrade or service, the specially designed
shipping containers assure adequate protection for the equipment. If for some reason the containers are not reusable
or if they are misplaced, please contact interWAVE to order new containers.
