Configuring the Solar Engine Prior to Installation
R820 solar roadway beacons should be configured before being installed at the selected location.
This is especially important when installing multiple R820 units as the job can be divided between
shop and field time.
3.2.1
Preparing the Bird Deterrents and Antenna for Installation
There are two items attached to the Solar Engine: bird deterrents
and an antenna. Both items are shipped with the R820 solar
roadway light. The small deterrents discourage birds from using
the R820 as a perch.
The antenna broadcasts or receives the radio signal to ensure
each of the R820 beacons act as a system. The antenna is
shipped inside the Solar Engine component when it comes from
the factory. As shown in Figure 3, the antenna is wrapped in foam
and placed on the left side of the enclosure.
To set up the external pieces attached to the Solar Engine,
complete the following steps:
1. Identify the three bird deterrents and set aside.
2. Remove the cover with the solar panels from the top of
the Solar Engine.
3. Attach each of the three bird deterrents, included with
the R820, to the top of the solar panel via the pre-drilled
holes. Ensure the solar panels remain as clean as
possible.
4. Detach the co-axial cable from where it is connected
inside the Solar Engine, and remove and unwrap the
attached antenna.
5. Remove the mounting screw for
the antenna bracket, located on
the side of the Solar Engine.
6. Insert the co-axial cable through
the hole in the side of the Solar
Engine, and carefully thread the
co-axial cable onto the gold
colored fitting on the electronics
enclosure from where it was just
removed it.
7. Pull the cable through the hole
and position the antenna bracket
over the mounting screw hole on
the side of the Solar Engine.
8. Use the mounting screw to attach
the antenna bracket to the Solar Engine.
