Raven EDGE/GPRS for Cingular - User Guide, version 2.31 43
APPENDIX 8 Modem Placement
When decided on a location to install your Raven, make sure the modem will be away from direct
exposure to the elements (sun, rain, etc.). Excess cables can be bundled and tied with twist-ties or
other appropriate binders, but the less the cable is wrapped and bound together, the better the
modem will perform.
Optional Mounting Kit
An optional accessory for your modem is a mounting kit. The bracket is designed to snugly cra-
dle the modem and hold it in place where you
need it.
The Raven “snaps” into place in the bracket locking into the
grooves on the Raven case. The
bracket can be further secured with a twist-tie set into the grooves on the top for situations where
the Raven may be subjected to violent movement, such as in the back of an automobile. In most
stationary installations, such as in a field or pipe, the Raven and bracket shouldn’t require a twist-
tie.
The bracket can be attached to the location using #6 screws (mounting hole diameter approxi-
mately 0.150").
