2 Awarepoint Sensor Installation
Sensorsneedtobelocatedthroughoutthecoveragearea,includingalongthe
perimeter.WheninstallingSensors,beginbyinstallingSensorsneartheBridge andwork
progressivelyoutwardinconcentriccircles.Inthismanner,youwillminimizethe
numberofSensorsthatmustbemoved.
PriortoinstallingtheSensors,theAppliance
andBridgemustbeinstalledcorrectly.
2.1 Physical Installation
TheSensorsareinstalledinstandardelectricalpowerreceptacles.Priortoinstallingthe
Sensoryoumustlocateapoweredoutlet.Verifythatthereceptaclehaspowerbyusing 
anelectricaltester.
