Before Installation
IMPORTANT: Signal Strength
Units using GPRS to communicate with a cloud-based back office contain a roaming
SIM card which connects to the strongest signal available.
It is assumed that a suitable GPRS signal has already been verified by the end
user/installer prior to installation.
x Units using GPRS require a suitable GPRS signal of 14 CSQ or better.
x Rolec cannot be held responsible or accountable in the event a GPRS unit is
installed in a location without adequate network signal.
1. Establish a suitable site location for the unit that is both secure and environmentally
safe.
2. Make sure the location meets current legislation (if applicable).
3. Make sure the unit and any accessories have not been damaged in transit.
NOTE: Items damaged in transit must first be reported to the courier and then to the
supplier.
Where possible, photographic evidence of package and/or item damage should be
provided.
4. Make sure the unit model is correct and matches the order.
NOTE: Incorrect or damaged units must NOT be installed. Contact your supplier to
discuss rectification.
Installation Procedure
If protective bollards or barriers will be used, consider installing them at the point of site
preparation.
Base Installation – If Supplied:
1. Prepare the ground and set the ground mounting base in the desired location.
x Make sure the power supply cable and ethernet cable (if required) is fed
upward through the middle of the base.
2. Concrete the base into place and allow time for it to set.
x The lip of the base should be 2 – 3 mm above the surrounding ground level.
If a Base is Not Supplied:
1. Prepare a suitable area of firm, flat ground.
x It must be possible to secure the charger to the ground with bolts or similar
fixings that are appropriate to the type of prepared ground.
