  • Page 2: Protect Your Installation

    • Screened CAT 5e cable also known as Shielded CAT 5e or CAT 5e STP (Shielded Twisted Pair) • Surge arrestor: type PTP-LPU: 2 per link (1 Motorola Kit Part Number WB2978AA) • Grounding stake (if no suitable grounding point can be found) •...
  • Page 3: Lightning Protection Zones

    Protect Your Installation Lightning Protection Zones When the ODU is installed on a mast, tower or wall, it may be in one of two possible lightning protection zones: • Zone A: In this zone a direct lighting strike is possible. Do not mount the ODU in this zone. •...
  • Page 4 Protect Your Installation Additional Grounding Requirements for Connectorized ODU Where the ODU is mounted outdoors and is mounted some distance from the antenna, it is advisable to add additional grounding by utilizing Andrew assemblies (such as Andrew Type 223158): Antenna cables should be grounded within 0.3 metres (1 foot) of the ODU and Antennas Connectorized ODU...
  • Page 5: Checklist, Site Survey And Tools

    Checklist, Site Survey and Tools CAUTION: Before performing an installation of a Motorola PTP 300 or PTP 500 Series system, ensure that you have read this entire guide and taken note of any safety information contained. Checklist • Check the contents of all packages against the packing list •...
  • Page 6: Bench Testing (Optional)

    Bench Testing (Optional) It is advised that the link be configured and tested on a bench before the final installation of the units on a pole or a mast. The following steps give details of how to connect an ODU to a PC in order to check the configuration details, change the IP settings or modify the license key.
  • Page 7 Bench Testing (Optional) NOTE: If the power LED does not illuminate, remove the power cable and the ODU connection from the PIDU Plus. Re-connect the power lead and check the power LED illumination (green). If the power LED still does not light then check the power source.
  • Page 8 Step 2: If an upgrade to the software is required, select Software Upgrade and follow the on-screen instruction. Latest software is available from our web site: (http://motorola.motowi4solutions.com/software/#ptp) Step 3: Check the License Key information and ensure you are using the correct Region Code.
  • Page 9 Bench Testing (Optional) Step 4: Access the ‘Installation Wizard’ page. Confirm the target MAC Address, Master/Slave choice, Symmetry, Max Transmit Power. Confirm installation configuration and reboot. Paired Unit Repeat the Power Checks and Configuration Checks for the paired unit and check that the status of the link shows UP on the ‘Status Page’.
  • Page 10: Mast, Tower Or Building Installation

    Mast, Tower or Building Installation Hoist and Safety Loop Use the integral safety loop for hoisting the ODU up a mast, tower or building. When the ODU is in position, use the safety loop as a fixing point to secure a permanent lanyard from the mast, tower or building to the ODU, as a precaution against mounting failure.
  • Page 11 Mast, Tower or Building Installation Mast or Tower Installation Instructions The ODU is pre-fitted with a mounting bracket (designed to ease installation) and with an earth bonding lead. WARNING: When mounting the ODU, observe the following precautions against failure of the assembly: •...
  • Page 12 Mast, Tower or Building Installation Step 2: Offer the ODU (with pre-fitted mounting bracket) to the bracket strap and affix using the captive M8 bolt. Tighten to ensure the assembly grips, but can be adjusted on the pole. Step 3: Adjust the elevation and azimuth of the unit before tightening to the required torque settings of 14 Nm (11 lbft) for both bolts.

  • Page 15 Cable Preparation and Installation Cable and Gland Installation To install the cables and glands, follow these steps: Step 1: Make a cable as specified in “Cable Preparation”. Plug in the RJ 45 into the ODU. Step 2: Support the drop cable and gently hand screw the gland body into the ODU until the O ring seal is flush to the ODU body.
  • Page 16 Cable Preparation and Installation Step 4: When the gland body has been fitted, tighten the gland back shell. Caution! Do not over tighten the gland back shell. Gland on the right-hand side has been over tightened. As a result, the internal seal and structure have been damaged: Step 5: Should it be necessary to disconnect the cable at the ODU (or PTP LPU), this can be achieved by removing the gland back shell first.
  • Page 17: Testing And Fault Finding (Troubleshooting)

    Testing and Fault Finding (Troubleshooting) Perform troubleshooting (fault finding) procedures either on a newly installed link, or on an operational link if communication is lost. When the link end hardware (PIDU, LPU, ODU and cabling) has been installed, start it by following this procedure: Step 1: Connect the RJ45 from the ODU (or LPU if fitted) to the PIDU and apply mains or battery power to the PIDU.
  • Page 18 Testing and Fault Finding (Troubleshooting) (*1) Power LED is Off Unplug the ODU connection from the PIDU and check the power LED illumination. If the power LED still does not light then check the power source. (*2) Power LED is Flashing Check that pins 4&5 and 7&8 are not crossed with pins 1&2 and 3&6 on the RJ45, and also greater than 100K ohms between pins 1&8.
  • Page 19 Testing and Fault Finding (Troubleshooting) Table 1 - Resistance Table Referenced to the RJ45 at the PIDU Resistances should fall within + or -10% of the stated values. CAT-5 Resistance between Resistance between Resistance Length pins 1&2, 3&6 , 4&5 and pins 1&3 (ohms) between pins 4&7 (Meters)
  • Page 20: Installation And Commissioning

    Installation and Commissioning Aligning the PTP 300 or PTP 500 Series Bridge ODUs The PTP 300 and PTP 500 Series Bridges use audible tones during installation to assist the installer with alignment. The installer should adjust the alignment of the ODU in both azimuth and elevation until highest pitch tone is achieved The pitch of the alignment tone is proportional to the received power of the wireless signals.
  • Page 21 Installation and Commissioning Behaviour During Installation The following behavior should be noted: • Band scan: When first started up and from time to time, the Master unit will carry out a band scan to determine which channels are not in use. During this time, between 10 and 15 seconds, the Master unit will not transmit and as a consequence of this neither will the Slave unit.
  • Page 22 Installation and Commissioning Adjust Power Settings The transmit power levels of the installed units must be adjusted to ensure they are not too high. Excessive power levels may cause saturation of the receivers or false radar detection (in radar enabled regions), leading to degradation of link performance and link failure. To adjust power levels, follow this procedure: Step 1: Consult the report generated by the LINKPlanner tool and note the Transmit power recommended levels.
