2.3 INSTALLATION
Place the transmitter in its final location
prior to completing installation. Install the
transmitter as follows:
NOTE
Metric, stainless steel attaching hardware
is used in this transmitter. Unless
otherwise specified, metric wrenches/
sockets must be used except where an
imperial measure is specifically identified.
When required, replacement hardware
should be identical to the replaced items.
2.3.1 Accepting the Shipment
Inspect all shipments for transit damage
prior to acceptance.
2.3.2 Unpacking Instructions
Instructions for unpacking are dictated by
the method of packaging for shipment.
Transmitters not shipped by electronic
equipment moving specialists may be
packed in wooden crates. Instructions
accompany any crate that requires special
unpacking information. Remove all items
from packing and place on a suitable work
area. Verify shipped contents with packing
lists, which provide detailed listings of
shipment contents.
(a) Remove the packing bracket from
each column (two for V10/V7.5, one
for V5/V3.5; see Figure 2-6) of RF
power modules. Carefully push each
module back into its support tray to
ensure its connector is properly mated.
NOTE
In areas prone to seismic activity, it is
permissible to leave the bracket(s) in.
Ensure the RF power modules are
properly seated. If necessary, loosen the
hex head screws to adjust the position of
the securing bracket.
2.3.3 Visual Inspection
Perform a visual inspection on the
cabinet, its modules/assemblies, and
printed wiring boards. The inspection
should cover the following:
(a) Verify the LCD screen on the front
panel is not damaged.
(b) Remove any packing materials (tape,
tyraps, bubble-wrap) used to secure
wiring/cabling for shipment.
(c) Check for obvious damage and
missing parts.
(d) Check electrical wiring/cabling for
broken or frayed insulation, loose or
improper connections, and broken,
shorted or pinched conductors.
(e) Verify all hardware is firmly tightened.
(f) Remove any unwanted foreign objects
from the interior of the cabinet/
assemblies, paying particular attention
for floating conductive materials such
as wire strands, metal slivers/filing,
and loose hardware.
2.3.4 Determining Control/
Monitoring Requirements
There are several remote control and
monitoring options which you must pre-
determine before installing external wiring
to/from these circuits. The pre-installation
information in paragraph 2.2 identifies all
of the remote controls and alarm/status
outputs available. It is assumed that you
have reviewed this information and have
determined which will be used. It is also
assumed the options available for the
control inputs and the monitoring outputs
have been reviewed and you have
determined which options are required to
interface with the external equipment.
2.3.5 Installing External Control/
Monitor Wiring
Connect the wiring from the remote
control/monitoring devices to the remote
interface PWB (A44) as follows:
