6. INSTALLATION
6.1 Initial Installation Record
When this equipment is initially commissioned, please use the equipment set-up record sheet
in Appendix A. This will help both the installation personnel and AFL should these figures
be needed for future reference or diagnosis.
6.2 General
The size and weight of the wall unit means that it represent a significant health hazard unless
it is mechanically installed in the correct manner. In the interests of safety this should be
done before any electrical or RF connections are made.
It is important in determining the location of the wall units that space is allowed for access
to the front and underneath of the equipment. To enable maintenance to be carried out, the
door must be able to fully open. The location must be served with a duct to allow the entry
of cables into the unit.
6.3 Electrical Connections
The mains power supply and the alarms are connected through an IP65 connector which
should need no further attention once connected. It is recommended that the AC power
connection is approved by a qualified electrician, who must satisfy himself that the supply
will be the correct voltage and of sufficient capacity.
All electrical and RF connection should be completed and checked prior to power being
applied for the first time.
6.4 RF Connections
All RF connections are made to the cable termination, located on the right-hand side of the
wall enclosure. Care must be taken to ensure that the correct connections are made with
particular attention made to the base station TX/RX ports. In the event that the base
transmitter is connected to the RX output of the unit, damage to the equipment may be done
if the base station transmitter is then keyed. If the environment where the equipment is
installed is deemed to be ‘wet’ i.e. water seepage through roofs or walls, then suitable
methods to seal the RF N type connectors should be used, for example self amalgamating
sealant tape.
Ensure that connections are kept clean and are fully tightened.
