Wall Mount Installation
Select a flat vertical mounting surface. Install the endpoint in an upright position; locate the
endpoint as high as possible. To mount the endpoint to the wall in a water pit box, select a
mounting location on the inside of the pit box and try to maintain a distance of one to two
inches from the bottom of the pit box lid.
Caution Observe the following guidelines for mounting the 100W using the
wall mount procedure:
Endpoint positioning other than upright could negatively affect
radio performance and battery life.
Do not use gel connectors in pit environments.
Use only Itron-approved splice kits or inline connectors.
The 100W is suitable for use with up to 300 feet of Itron approved cable.
