Remote Backhaul Antenna Installation
Before installing the backhaul antenna in a remote location, first determine if a remote installation is needed.
In the location selected for the gateway, test the backhaul connection while the backhaul antenna is still connected to the
gateway by doing the following.
OTE:N For testing the backhaul connection, make sure the gateway ReadCenter® Monitor server is running, the enclosure
cover is o the gateway so the circuit board is visible, the backhaul antenna is connected to the gateway and power
is available.
1. Turn on the gateway power. On the circuit board in
the lower left quadrant, next to the SIM card slot,
look for the LED labeled ”TCP“ (Figure 57).
The TCP LED will light when the backhaul links with
the server, signifying a connection.
