3.2 Installing Transceivers—MDS entraNET,
iNET/iNET-II
(If not already installed)
The modular construction of the Protected Network Station makes it
easy to install transceivers. The only tool required is a Phillips screw-
driver. If the transceivers were not installed at the factory, proceed with
the steps below for installation and to connect the internal cabling. Refer
to Figure 5 during these steps.
NOTE:
Before installing a transceiver in the chassis, make sure each
radio is operating properly as a standalone unit, and is
equipped with up-to-date firmware code. The latest revision of
firmware for most GE MDS products is available for down-
load at www.GEmds.com.
1. Make sure the power is off.
2. Remove the top cover of the Protected Network Station by loosen-
ing the two screws at the rear panel.
3. If a backup battery is installed in the chassis, be sure it is discon-
nected from the battery control board.
4. Remove the transceiver mounting plates from the chassis by loosen-
ing the screws that secure them to the chassis.
5. Attach the lower mounting plate to the lower transceiver (Radio B)
using four screws. Attach the mounting plate and radio to the chas-
sis.
