Mains Safety Precautions; Battery Safety Precautions - Motorola MTS LiTE Installation, Configuration And Basic Service Manual

Chapter 2: General Safety
CAUTION: Antenna design is the customers responsibility. All aspects of antenna design must
comply with the relevant local regulations.
CAUTION: Familiarize yourself with Man-Machine Interface (MMI) commands and their usage
before performing procedures in this documentation. Improperly applying MMI commands can
result in equipment damage.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to make a resistance check of the GPS antenna, as it may result in
damage to the active devices within the antenna element.
CAUTION: Do not transmit to an antenna under any circumstance unless frequencies are
licensed.
CAUTION: Do not key any Base Radio with the Signal Generator directly connected to a Tx
antenna port as it damages a generator.
CAUTION: Some commands executed during Conformance Testing bypass normally available
alarms and protection associated with the normal MTS operation. Therefore, adhere to all
cautionary information and follow instructions exactly as in the procedures.
CAUTION: The MTS site must meet certain specifications for adequate protection from
lightning induced transients. See the Motorola Standards and Guidelines for Communications
Sites, R56 manual.
CAUTION: The Site Controller motherboard contains a lithium battery. See local regulatory
requirements for proper battery disposal.
IMPORTANT: Install the MTS in restricted access locations, as defined in EN/IEC 60950-1.
Only the service personnel or users with appropriate technical experience and training can use
the MTS.
IMPORTANT: Connect the MTS to earth and power it from a 100 V/240 VAC primary power
source, or a -48 VDC secondary power source.
IMPORTANT: The batteries should be installed in the same building and properly ventilated.
