5.6 Antennas
Before turning the i50 on for the first time, ensure all antennas have been attached. Note: antennas
are not normally supplied with the unit. Operating without antennas may cause high voltages on the
modem power amplifiers, possibly damaging the internal modules.
See section 1.2 for important information about antenna selection.
Note: to allow automatic noise profiling, the GPS antenna should be attached BEFORE turning
the unit on.
5.7 Initial Set Up
Important: install and run the iSeries Programmer software to program the unit settings (see
section 7.0).
Use the Programmer to configure:
-
How the I/O lines and serial ports have been connected
-
Reporting intervals
-
Which events will be generated by the i50
-
Network and hardware parameters
-
Accelerometer angles (also see section 9.0)
