Installation Manual

Outdoor installation
Select a mounting location that:
– provides a clear line-of-sight of the protected area.
– is away from metallic objects such as chain-link fences and electrical transformers. If
coverage is required near such items, perform testing near them to determine the
potential need for additional receivers.
– is 3 m (10 ft.) above grade.
– is not at a barrier where it is important to resolve which side an alarm location is on.
– is easy to service.
– is not damaged by tampering.
Spacing
Mount coordinators/receivers every 90 m (300 ft.). It is very important to maintain spacing as
consistent as possible to ensure optimum signal locating. The more the coordinators/receivers
can detect a transmitted signal, the more accurate the locating. Make sure each coordinator/
receiver has a clear line-of-sight of the intended protection area.
Mounting height
Mount coordinators/receivers 3 m (10 ft.) above grade. Maintain a mounting height that is as
consistent as possible to ensure optimum signal locating.
Overhangs/eaves
Coordinator/receiver locations should be below building overhangs and eaves. Most
transmissions occur 1 m (a few feet) above grade. Therefore, mounting above overhangs and
eaves can result in inaccurate signal locating. Be especially careful around metal roofs as
these can block the signal.
Pre-wired installations
When mounting the enclosure to a pre-wired electrical box, make sure that the electrical box
has a 15.2 cm (6 in.) overhead clearance. The enclosure should be mounted as shown in figure
below.
Notice!
The enclosure does not currently support octagonal electrical boxes.
