3. Installation
3.1. Mounting
Orientation of the Micron Data Modem will normally be in the vertical position with the
transducer uppermost. The transducer is omni-directional.
Four tapped holes in the aluminium body are provided by the bottom of the Micron Modem to
permit mounting on flat surfaces, alternatively the Modem may be gently gripped by a 50mm
diameter clamping mechanism around the bottom part of the housing.
Caution
It is recommended that any fixing screws used should be of non-metallic
materials to reduce the risk of corrosion around the fixing positions.

3.2. Handling
The Micron Data Modem is a sealed product and should not be opened or tampered with in
any way. There are no user-serviceable parts or internal switches which would necessitate
disassembly.
The connector socket is not usable "open face" and should always be sealed wither with a
connector plug or the blanking plug provided. The auxiliary port should be blanked off at all
times when not in use.
3.3. Power
The Micron Data Modem should be powered from a clean DC supply or battery pack.
To reduce damage to the device in the event of over-voltage it is recommended that an
appropriate fuse is included in the power supply connection.
For full details of the power requirement refer to Chapter 2,
