Considerations for Installations Incorporating the MICA-Compact
There are several conditions which need to be taken into consideration when
designing your application as they might affect the router and its functionality. These
are:
Environmental conditions:
The router must be installed so that the environmental
conditions stated such as temperature, humidity and vibration are satisfied.
Additionally, the electrical specifications must not be exceeded.
Signal strength:
The router/antenna has to be placed in a position that ensures
sufficient signal strength. To improve signal strength, the antenna can be moved to
a more elevated position. Signal strength usually depends on how close the router is
to the base station. You must ensure that the location at which you intend to use the
router is within the network coverage area. Degradation in signal strength can be the
result of a disturbance from another source, for example an electronic device in the
immediate vicinity.
When considering the location for the router and antenna placement, you must
consider received signal strength as well as cable length as long cable runs can
attenuate the received signal strength.
Connections of components to MICA-Compact Series routers:
The system
integrator is responsible for the final system solution. If external components are
incorrectly designed or installed it may cause radiation limits to be exceeded. For
instance, improper cable connections or incorrectly installed antennas can disturb the
network and lead to router malfunction.
Network and subscription:
Before your application is used, you must ensure that
your chosen network provides the necessary telecommunication services. Contact
your service provider to obtain the necessary information.

If you intend to use SMS in the application, ensure this is included in your
subscription.
