User Manual

Make sure that the DC supply is electrically isolated from any AC source and that the
installation complies with the local codes.
The maximum permissible current capability of the branch distribution circuit that
supplies power to the product is 16A. The circuit breaker in the building installation
should have high breaking capacity and must operate at short-circuit current exceeding
35A.
Before connecting the DC supply wires, ensure that power is removed form the DC
circuit. Locate the circuit breaker of the panel board that services the equipment and
switch it to the OFF position. When connecting the DC supply wires, first connect the
ground wire to the corresponding terminal, then the positive pole and last the negative
pole. Switch the circuit breaker back to the ON position.
A readily accessible disconnect device that is suitably rated and approved should be
incorporated in the building installation.
Installing the Radio Terminals (RTs)
The following safety measures apply when installing the radio terminals and masts.
• Mast / pole / towers should comply with local standards such as BS6651.
• Only trained professional installers should install or dismantle radio terminals and
masts. The installer is responsible for meeting all building and safety codes.
• Before installing a terminal, make sure it is disconnected from power.
• A safety belt and climbing harness must be used when installing the radio terminals
on a mast or tower.
• Masts of height 3 meters or more must be guyed according to required industry
standards and be lightning protected.
• If a radio terminal is to be mounted at a height of more than 4 meters above the
roof, it is recommended that a climbable tower be installed to give access to the
equipment and to prevent antenna movement during strong winds.
• When installing equipment, beware of overhead high-voltage power lines. Never
install a mast under power lines.
• The mast structure must be grounded.
• Do not stand in front of a live radio terminal.
• The installer should configure the output power level of antennas according to
country regulations and per antenna type.
• The antenna used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation
distance of at least 200 cm from all persons and must not be co-located or
operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
