Step 2—Install the Antenna
To minimize radio frequency interference, the antenna should be
mounted at least nine inches (> 23 cm) from the connected device(s),
sensors and other components of the system.
Step 3—Measure & Connect DC Power
The power applied to transceivers (AP and Remotes) must be within
6–30 Vdc and be capable of continuously providing a minimum of 11
Watts. (Typical power consumption is 800 mA at 13.8 Vdc for the AP
and 600 mA at 13.8 Vdc for Remotes.)
A power connector with screw terminals is provided with each radio.
Strip the wire leads to 6 mm (0.25"). Be sure to observe proper
polarity, as shown in
It takes approximately 30 seconds for the AP transceiver to
NOTE:
power up and be ready for operation. The Remote requires
