2.1. Installing the Smart-Reach Wireless LAN
When planning the installation of the Smart-Reach wireless network, select a dry
indoor location for the Smart-Reach unit where the unit is not exposed to
moisture. Install the Smart-Reach within proximity of the antenna, which is
designed to be mounted in an outdoor location.
In a standard network, as shown in Figure 2-1, the Smart-Reach vehicle station is
installed onboard the vehicle within three feet of the mobile antenna for optimum
signal performance. The Smart-Reach base station is installed in the yard office
with a terminal antenna.
Before beginning the installation, assemble all the necessary system components
and inspect the units for any scratches or damage. Use the appropriate tools for the
installation.
Important:
Installers should be qualified electricians with data communications
experience. If you need assistance with identifying qualified contractors in your area,
please contact Seon Design for more information.
