The connector should mate smoothly and lock in place with an audible click. If the
connector does not mate properly check for obstructions and try again.
Connect the other end of the cable to a junction box or power supply via the attached
spade lugs. The black wire is ground. The other wire should be connected to line
voltage. Make sure that the cable is properly secured.
6.1.5 Before applying power to the system, be sure to recheck that all appropriate clearance
distances are met with regards to blasting circuits. Per the IME Safety Library
Publication No. 20, the recommended clearance distance is a minimum 7.1 feet for the
M-2 Antenna Systems 900 MHz antenna.
6.1.6 Backup Battery Installation
6.1.6.1 If a backup battery is required for the node being installed, determine a place to
mount the FAP9100-002 battery enclosure. Inspect the enclosure to make sure
that it is not damaged and that it is latched closed. Make sure that the mounting
does not interfere with proper venting of the battery enclosure (vent hole is
located near handle of battery enclosure).
6.1.6.2 Before installing the battery enclosure, be sure to recheck that all appropriate
clearance distances are met with regards to blasting circuits. Per the IME Safety
Library Publication No. 20, the recommended clearance distance is a minimum
7.1 feet for the M-2 Antenna Systems 900 MHz antenna. Remember that a
system with a battery installed will continue to run when line power is removed
and may still be a hazard to nearby blasting. If blasting must be done near a
node with a battery installed, be sure to unplug the battery and de-energize the
main system power. Install dust caps on exposed battery connector (CON2).
6.1.6.3 Remove the dust cap from the FMN battery connector.
6.1.6.4 Connect the battery enclosure to the FMN with a FAA4200-008 battery cable that
is part of the FAP9100-002 battery assembly. It will only fit into the FMN battery
power connector. DO NOT force the connector in. The connector should mate
smoothly and lock in place with an audible click. If the connector does not mate
properly with the FMN battery input connector, check for obstructions and try
again. Make sure that the cable is properly secured.
IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNINGS!
