Macro Base Station Installation Procedures (NPM-1000)
Unpack the Equipment
The racks are delivered on shipping pallets. Each rack is secured in an upright position and is bolted to
the pallet. Additional equipment is delivered in separate shipping boxes.
 To unpack the base station equipment
1 Transport the shipping boxes to the installation area using a dolly or pallet jack.
2 Inspect the exterior packaging for any noticeable damage that may have occurred during shipment.
3 Verify that the shipment is complete by checking the contents of each box against the bill of materials
(BOM) or shipping invoice that arrives with each box. The BOM for each box may be located on the
outside or inside of the box.
4 Report any missing or damaged components to the field support coordinator as soon as possible.
5 Cut the packaging tape on each box using scissors or a utility knife.
6 Remove the cardboard packaging from the racks:
i Remove the top of the cardboard packaging.
ii Remove the cardboard sides. The cardboard sides are bolted to the shipping pallet and pull off with
minimal effort.
7 Remove the protective bags covering the racks.
8 Check the racks for extra mounting hardware or invoices. If there are additional items, remove them and
keep them for future use.
9 Remove the four 9/16-inch bolts that secure the base of each rack to its shipping pallet.
10 Verify the contents of the other boxes by examining their BOMs.
NOTE: Do not remove any items from their antistatic bags until you are ready to
install them.
11 Save the packaging material and the BOMs in case any of the equipment needs to be returned or moved
in the future.
