Note: review
Section 2.1.2: “Installation Guidelines”
prior to installing the
controller.
1. Attach the Cobalt HF Antenna to the Cobalt HF Controller as per the
instructions in
Section 2.2: “Connecting the Antenna.”
2. Select a suitable location for the Cobalt HF Controller/Antenna. If
necessary, fabricate mounting brackets from durable plastic.
3. Fasten combined controller and antenna to your mounting fixture using two
M5 (#10) diameter screws (not included). Pass screws through antenna’s
mounting holes and secure them with appropriate washers and nuts.
Tighten screws to 1.7 Nm or 15 lbs per inch ± 10%.
4. Connect the three wires from your power supply to pins 1-3 on the 5-pin,
female, M12 connector (
P/N: CBL-1487
included).
5. Attach the
CBL-1487
connector to the 5-pin, male, M12 connector on the
Cobalt Controller.
6. Attach the 4-pin, male, M12, D-Code connector from a CAT 5E (or better)
industrial Ethernet cable (
P/N: CBL-1515-05
not included) to the 4-pin,
female, M12, D-Code connector on the Cobalt Controller.
7. Connect the other RJ45S end of the CBL-1515-05 (or compatible) cable to
an available Ethernet port on the host PC.
8. Turn the power supply ON. The green power LED on the unit will illuminate.
After installation is complete, the yellow Node ID 8 LED will be lit when the controller is
operating using its default IP address. The yellow Node ID 16 LED will be lit when the
controller is operating with a user assigned IP address.
