Beware of possible short circuits when connecting a cable section with conductive shielding braiding. Housing Only technicians authorized by Hirschmann are permitted to open the housing. A separate screw connection on the housing is provided for the function ground. It is indicated by the function ground symbol. The function ground is electrically connected to the switching ground and the metal housing of the device. - Page 5 Never insert pointed objects (thin screwdrivers, wires, etc.) into the in- side of the subrack! Failure to observe this point may result in injuries caused by electric shocks. Environment The device may only be operated at the specified maximum ambient tem- perature and relative air humidity (non-condensing).

Page 13: External Antennas
External antennas are required to operate the access point. You will find an overview of the antennas that are supported and can be con- nected, along with the technical data, on the Hirschmann website under www.hirschmann-ac.com. When installing external antennas, make sure that you adhere to the reg- ulations of the country in which you are operating the WLAN device. - Page 14 Here you enter the value listed for your antenna in the following table.

Page 15: Omnidirectional Antennas
When the antenna gain is set correctly, the power emitted from the antenna is reduced so that the overall system adheres to the EIRP threshold values (transmission power output of the antenna). The following frequency ranges, tranmission modes and maximum transmis- sion powers are permitted in Japan: Allowed channels for 2.4 GHz non-turbo operation Channel(s) 1(2412 MHz), 2(2417 MHz), 3(2422 MHz), 4(2427 MHz),... -
Page 16: Beam Antennas
BAT-ANT-N-6ABG (2.4 / 5 GHz) Omnidirectional antenna (hemispherical antenna) for use in both frequency ranges. In industrial environments, this is the preferred choice for use on mo- bile devices or switch cabinets. It is water resistant and sealed in accordance with protection class IP67. - Page 17 BAT-ANT-TNC-B-D-085-02 BAT-ANT-N-12A (linear, 5 GHz) Sector antenna for 5 GHz band indoors and outdoors. BAT-ANT-N-12A BAT-ANT-TNC-8b/g DS (linear, 2.4 GHz) or BAT-ANT-TNC-10 A DS (linear, 5 GHz) Sector antennas with polarization diversity. Reduction in packet losses through use of vertical and horizontal polarization. Supported by the diversity antenna connections of the BAT54-F.

Page 21: Setting Up The Device
Cover unused connections with the cover caps supplied. Only connect plugs and other components that fulfill protection class IP 67 and that are certified for a temperate range from -20 °C to +55 °C. 2.2.1 Setting up the device Set up/mount the device in a location where the ambient conditions spec- ified in the technical data are adhered to. - Page 22 When implementing your light- ening protection concept, make sure you meet the requirements of standards VDE 0182 and IEC 62305. Hirschmann recommends using the Hirschmann BAT Surge Arrestor as lightening protection (see on page 37 "Accessories").
-
Page 23: Mounting/Connecting External Antennas
Warning! Installing this lightening protection element between an antenna and a BAT54-F does not alone provide sufficient protection against a lightening strike. The BAT Surge Arrestor lightening protection element only works as part of a compre- hensive lightening protection concept. If you have any questions relating to this, contact a qualified dealer. -
Page 24: Connecting Lan And Wlan Connections
Use the main and auxiliary connections of one WLAN module if you want to use the diversity function. The diversity function increases the connec- tion quality by always sending or receiving via the antenna providing the best contact to the client. Note: Please insert the terminators supplied into the sockets not being used in order to avoid radio signals from one WLAN module being received by the other WLAN module. -

2.2.9 Mounting the housing cover For use in environments with the danger of explosions, the BAT54-F X2 and BAT54-F X2 FCC device models have an additional housing cover made of stainless sheet steel. On delivery, the housing cover is pre-mounted. Perform the installation in the following steps: Remove the upper part of the housing cover on the device, as shown in the following figure (point 1). -
Page 29: Startup
Startup By connecting the voltage supply via the 5-pin M12 connector or via the LAN cable (Power over Ethernet), you start the operation of the device. After the device performs a short self-test, the power LED lights up green per- manently or flashes alternately red and green if no configuration password has been set yet. - Page 30 P - Power LS/DA - LS/DA Ethernet-Port WLAN WLAN WLAN1 WLAN2 Meaning of the LEDs The behavior of the LEDs is described using the following terms: Blinking means that the LED switches on and off at regular intervals in the color specified. Flashing means that the LED lights up very briefly in the color speci- fied, then is switched off for a much longer time (about 10x as long).

Therefore you may want to save the current con- figuration of the device before the reset. Note: Note that when the device is reset, the WLAN encryption settings de- fined in the device are also lost, being reset to the standard WEP key.
