NOTE
Avoid over-tightening the bracket bolts.
In order to test the fiber-optic cable and connected equipment
during installation, the Sensor may be triggered to send the
power-up message. Since the Sensor’s optical data
transmissions are done in the red part of the optical spectrum,
red light can be seen (even in daylight) coming out of the fiber-
optic transmitter on the Sensor or the receiving end fiber-optic
cable when installed. To trigger the power-up message, leave the
Sensor in the off position (facing down) for ten seconds to ensure
the Sensor is fully off before turning it on again (facing it upright).
The red light will be visible immediately upon righting the Sensor.
It is helpful to have a second person available during this final
test to avoid having to go up and down from the Sensor site
(usually a rooftop) to verify that the Receiver and/or Strike View
Software receive a self-test message.
6. When running Strike View Software on a computer it is important to test the
complete system and fiber-optic cable installation before finalizing installation of
the Sensor.
To test communication between Strike Guard Sensor and Strike View
Software, ensure that:
1. Strike View Software has been loaded and is running on a computer
2. The fiber-optic Converter is properly mounted and the fiber-optic cable is
properly secured in the (black) receiver device on the fiber-optic Converter
3. A status change is indicated on the Strike View main screen when Sensor
is powered-up.
4. The Sensor is now communicating with the Receiver and Strike View
Software
Securely mount the Sensor to the mast and tripod. With the two saddle brackets
mounted loosely on the Sensor using the ¼-20 bolts and washers, hold the
Sensor over the mast and open the saddle clamps so that it slips onto the mast.
Position the Sensor to expose no more than about one inch of mast above the
saddle brackets. Use a 7/16-inch nut driver to tighten the stainless-steel bolts so
that they evenly squeeze the saddle clamps down on the mast. Torque the two
nuts snugly and evenly but do not over-tighten the ¼-20 bolts. The stainless steel
saddle brackets deform when over-tightened.
The Strike Guard Lightning Warning System installation is completed
successfully.
