Installing the Transmitter
The first consideration in the placement of the transmitter is convenience. It should be
readily accessible in a central location within the paging area. Pay close attention to
nearby obstructions such as walls, pipes, ducts, mirrored glass, or other similar barriers
that may weaken or misdirect transmitted signals. Certain materials and construction,
especially metal, have the potential to partially or completely block the paging signal. The
next consideration involves safety. Ensure the unit is securely mounted and away from
liquids, extreme heat and possible physical damage. Also remember that the transmitting
unit requires a 110V AC power outlet. Be sure an antenna is attached prior to applying
power to avoid damage to the transmitter. An optional molded plastic cover is available
as an accessory purchase, to protect the transmitter, especially in areas where spillage is
possible.
For best results, the transmitter antenna must be vertical. Ideally the transmitter should
be centrally located within the area where paging is to occur. Since this is not always possible,
range testing at different locations may be required to obtain the desired performance. Once the
Desktop Transmitter and antenna have been installed, plug in the power adapter. Once
powered the transmitter will display ‘Enter Number’’ indicating it is ready to send a page.
We recommend some type of surge suppressor on the power supply for protection. Power
surges are not covered under system warranty.
