Power Up Sequence
The Smart Wireless Gateway should be installed and functioning properly before any
wireless devices are powered. Install the Power Module, Smart Wireless 701PGNKF into
the 708 to power the device. This results in a simpler and faster network installation.
Enabling Active Advertising on the Gateway ensures that new devices are able to join the
network faster. For more information see the Smart Wireless Gateway Manual (Document
No. 00809-0200-4420).
Antenna Position
The antenna is internal to the acoustic transmitter. To achieve optimal range, orient the
transmitter with the waveguide horizontal and the Power Module closest to the ground as
shown in Figure 1. Good connectivity can also be achieved in other orientations. The
antenna should also be approximately 3 ft. (1 m) from any large structure, building, or
conductive surface to allow for clear communication to other devices.

Field Communicator Connections
The Power Module needs to be installed in the device for the Field Communicator to
interface with the 708. This transmitter uses the Green Power Module; please order model
number 701PGNKF. Field communication with this device requires a HART-based Field
Communicator using the correct 708 DD. Field Communicator connections are located on
the Power Module. The Power Module is keyed and can only be inserted in one orientation.
Refer to Figure 2 for instructions on connecting the Field Communicator to the 708.
