Required Tools
The following tools are used in the procedures.
DC current clamp (600 Amp capability with jaw size to accommodate
2/0 cable).
Hot Air Gun - (optional for part of the Alarm Verification)
Digital Multimeter (DMM)
Cabling Inspection
Using the site-specific documentation generated by Motorola Systems
Engineering, verify that the following cable systems are properly
connected:
Receive RF cabling - up to 12 RX cables
Transmit RF cabling - up to six TX cables
NOTE
For positive power applications (+27 V):
The positive power cable is red.
The negative power cable is black. (The black power cable is
at ground potential.)
Initial Inspection and Setup
CAUTION
Ensure all battery breakers for unused battery positions are open
(pulled out) during any part of the power up process, and remain
in the off position when leaving the site.
Table 2-2: Initial Inspection and Setup
Step Action
1 Verify that ALL AC and DC breakers are turned OFF in both the Power and RF cabinets. Verify that
the DC power cables between the Power and RF cabinets are connected with the correct polarity
2 The RED cables connect to the uppermost three (3) terminals (marked +) in both cabinets. Confirm
that the split phase 240/120 AC supply is correctly connected to the AC load center input.
CAUTION
Failure to connect the proper AC feed will damage the surge
protection module inside the AC load center.
AC Power Check
The first task in the power up sequence is to apply AC power to the
Power cabinet. Once power is applied a series of AC Voltage
measurements is required.
Table 2-3: AC Voltage Measurements
Step Action
1 Measure the AC voltages connected to the AC load center (access the terminals from the rear of the
cabinet after removing the AC load center rear panel). See Figure 2-2.
2 Measure the AC voltage from terminal L1 to neutral. This voltage should be in the range of nominally
115 to 120 Vac.
