Chapter 2 Installation 2-1. General This Chapter provides the information needed to install FP310RAM-X mini readers. The information presented in this Chapter is organized as follows: Installation requirements – Section 2-2. Installation guidelines – Section 2-3. Installation procedures – Section 2-4. Before starting the installation procedures, make sure to review the Safety Information section at the beginning of this chapter. 2-2. Installation Requirements 2-2.
Installation Guidelines 2-2.3 Mechanical Data Figure 2-2 provides mechanical data for planning the installation of an FP310RAM-X unit. Figure 2-2. FP310RAM-X Mechanical Data 2-3. Installation Guidelines The FP310RAM-X is intended for installation in protected cabinets that prevent direct exposure to sun radiation, rain, dust and dirt. It does not require forced air cooling. The unit does not have any surge protection units inside. 2-3.
Installation Procedure selecting suitable antennas. Note 2-3.2.1 The antenna (ANT) connector of the FP310RAM-X must always connected to antenna or be terminated in matched (50) loads. FP310RAM-X-to-Antenna Cabling The maximum distance between the FP310RAM-X and its antenna is limited by cable signal loss. Generally, the total signal loss between the antenna and the FP310RAM-X must be less than 3 dB. Any losses on antenna patch panels must also be taken into consideration.
Installation Procedure 2-4.3 FP310RAM-X Installation Procedure 2-4.3.1 Physical Installation Use the following general procedure to install the FP310RAM-X in the prescribed location: 1. Identify the exact location and position of the FP310RAM-X. 2. Mark the 6 holes to be drilled in accordance with the information appearing in Figure 2-2, and then drill using an appropriate drill tip for #8x32 screw. 3. Thoroughly clean the surface on which the FP310RAM-X will be mounted. 4.

Chapter 3 Operation 3-1. Scope This Chapter provides the information needed to prepare a new FP310RAM-X for operation in your system, using the FP310RAM-X host utility provided by Telematics Wireless. 3-2. Power-Up Before performing the other activities described in this Chapter, power up the FP-310RA and connect it to the PC running the host utility. Warning Do not apply power to the FP310RAM-X before explicit authorization is received from the person in charge.
Power-Up To connect the FP310RAM-X to the host PC: 1. Identify the serial COM port of the PC that is configured for communication with the FP310RAM-X. 2. Connect a straight DB9 to DB9 modem cable between the host PC COM port and the host connector of the FP310RAM-X. 3. Start the host utility. 4. After the PC establishes communication with the FP310RAM-X, the monitoring window of the host utility should show the information retrieved from the FP310RAM-X.
