Requirements/Specifications , are met before installing the FR-3000.
3.1 UNPACKING THE FR-3000
Unpack both FR-3000s as follows:
1. Remove the repeater from shipping box.
2. Slide the two foam end caps off the repeater.
3. Remove the repeater from protective plastic bag and set the repeater aside in a safe
place. Save the shipping box and materials in the event the repeater has to be reshipped.
4. Remove the plastic bag containing the accessory package and check that all items list-
ed below are in the bag:
• One 8 foot USA power cord.
• One cable support bracket.
• Two 8-32 x .375 in. screws.
• Three 6 in. cable ties.
3.2 CONNECTING THE FR-3000 TO YOUR NETWORK
The FR-3000 is designed to be easily connected to your network without the use of any spe-
cial tools and equipment.
Connect the FR-3000 to the network as follows:
1. Using the two 8-32 screws (3, Fig. 2-1), attach the cable support (2) to the repeater (3).
2. Place the repeater on the selected site. Ensure that the site meets the guidelines listed
in Section 2.3.
CAUTION: Ensure that the external transceiver, to which the FR-3000 will be connected,
does not have the signal quality error (SQE or “heartbeat”) test function enabled. The FR-
3000 will not operate if the transceiver has the SQE test function enabled, and the network
will be unusable. Refer to the applicable transceiver manual.
3. Attach an external transceiver (1, 19, Fig. 2-2) to the segment to which the FR-3000
will be connected. Refer to the applicable transceiver manual.
