Phone Line/Network
For ADSL connected units the phone cable should be run through ducting that provides
suitable protection and flexibility. There is a phone line surge protector mounted on the DIN
rail.
4G Aerial/Antennae Installation
For wireless connected units where the aerial is mounted remotely from the cabinet, the
aerial cable should be run through ducting that provides suitable protection and flexibility.
When choosing a location for aerial installation, ensure that as much of the aerial as possible,
especially the fibreglass whip section, is mounted away from metallic obstructions such as
pillars and roof overhang. Ensure it is not mounted within one metre of any other aerials to
minimise signal interference.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
When installing the spring-loaded aerial, it is essential to leave enough
loose cable at the bottom of the aerial for when the spring flexes. A loop of 50mm before
fixing the cable should be sufficient.
The aerial plugs into the wireless router. Neatly cable-tie the aerial cable to existing wiring
and feed any excess into the base where it can be coiled and cable tied out of the way. Make
sure the aerial cable does not interfere with the paper roll when the door is closed.
Glanding
Gland the mains power, pumps comms, tank gauging and phone line/Network SWA cables
up through the post into the 20mm holes provided in the bottom of the cabinet.
Certain configurations will use wireless communication to internet and therefore require no
phone line or network cable.
Ensure the Perspex terminal cover is refitted after the cables are connected
NOTE:
Check that all cables are securely fastened by pulling each one in turn to make sure
they are properly attached.
CAUTION:
Ensure Perspex terminal cover is refitted after all cables are connected.
NOTE:
Due to varying customer requirements, connections may change from what is shown
above.
