Further Antenna Installation Information.
It is very important that the Radio Antenna is installed correctly for the Radio
Communication to be reliable under all conditions.
Pulsar only supply External Antenna, these Antenna are weather proof if installed
correctly.
Pulsar also supply 4m extensions for both the receiver and transmitter end to ensure
there is sufficient flexibility for Antenna positioning.
The Antenna need a
CLEAR LINE OF SIGHT to each other at all times to maintain
reliable communication, care should be taken if either the transmitter or receiver end is
installed on moving machinery. Or, the installation takes place in winter and foliage
growth during the summer months could block signal.
Radio signal does not penetrate metalwork or water so special care should be taken
avoiding these objects within line of sight.
The 4m length of cable at each end should not be tightly coiled, care should be taken
during the installation to ensure, if possible, the extension cable is run in such a way as
to make extensive or tight coiling of the remainder unnecessary.
