System Installation
The following chapter explains how to install the system and provides guidelines and tips on how
to optimize the installation.
It is recommended that you familiarize yourself with the various circuit boards that make up the
system – see p. 4,
1.4 Hardware Layout.
2.1. Pre-Installation Planning
Before starting the installation procedure, it is worthwhile to draw a rough sketch of the building
and determine the required position for the Control System and each wireless device.
When deciding on the placement for installation, consider the following:
•
Mount the Control System in a location with easy access to telephone and power
connections.
•
Mount the Control System in a location that provides easy connection to the router.
•
For best performance of the GPRS Communication, the Control System should be
mounted in a position where the GSM signal is strong.
•
Refer to the following section in order to choose the optimal location for wireless
devices in relation to the Control System.
2.1.1. Wireless Installation Guidelines
In order to optimize wireless communication, consider the following guidelines:
•
Whenever possible, mount the Control System centrally in relation to wireless
detectors.
•
Avoid installation in close proximity to sources of high noise or radio frequency
interference. For example, metal air conditioner/heater ducts and circuit breaker
boxes.
•
Minimize the distance between the Control System and transmitters.
•
Minimize the number of obstacles between the Control System and transmitters.
Figure 2-1: Minimizing Obstacles
•
Metal based construction materials, such as steel reinforced concrete walls, reduce the
range of radio transmissions.
