for the RADWIN 1000/2000/5000 wireless network installation.
• If the site is suitable, continue with stage 3, the RF survey
• If the site is not suitable, survey another site
Additional Outdoor Site Requirements
The ambient outdoor operating temperature should be -35 to 60
C (-31 to
140
F).
Additional Indoor Site Requirements
The following requirements guarantee proper operation of the system:
• For IDU-C units, allow at least 90 cm (36 “) of front clearance for
operating and maintenance accessibility. Allow at least 10 cm (4 “)
clearance at the rear of the unit for signal lines and interface cables
• The ambient operating temperature should be 0 to 50°C (32 to 122
°F) at a humidity of up to 90%, non condensing
Stage 3: RF Survey
The RF survey examines the wireless environment of the RADWIN 1000/
2000/5000 installation site, to determine whether there are available chan-
nels within the RADWIN 1000/2000/5000 operating frequency band. An RF
survey is performed using a spectrum analyzer.
It is advisable to familiarize yourself with the spectrum analyzer before
going out on site, specifically the Max Hold and Marker functions.
You should perform the RF survey at both proposed link sites.
The survey should be carried out during a busy time of day, to best judge
the worst-case radio interference. Allow 2-4 hours duration for a good RF
survey.
