For a description and a diagram of accessory equipment included with the repeater, see `SUPPLIED ACCESSORIES' on p. ii of this manual. 2 n Antenna connection For radio communications, the antenna is a critical component, along with output power and sensitivity. Select antenna(s), such as a well-matched 50 antenna, and feedline. NEVER remove the fuse-holder from the DC power receptacle. AC outlet DC power supply 13. 2 V; at least 20 A Red Black + _ R When you disconnect the DC power cable, take care no crack of your fingernail. w q Push Supplied DC power cable AC cable Red Black 5 INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS 2 n Power supply connection Make sure the repeater's power is turned OFF when connecting a DC power cable. CAUTION: Voltages greater than 16 V DC will damage the repeater. Check the source voltage before connecting the power cable. n Mounting the repeater D Using the supplied handle The supplied handles are available for mounting the repeater into a 19 inch rack. The handles can be installed to the repeater's front panel. q Attach the supplied handles to both sides of the repeater's front panel with the spacers, then tighten the screws as below. 1 P0 P1 P2 P3 P4 Screw Handle Spacer 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 6 w The completed installation should look like as below. P0 P1 P2 P3 P4 3 OPERATION n Receiving and transmitting D Repeater operation Ask your dealer for details of the repeater's programming. hen the power is turned ON, the [PWR] indicator W lights green. 1) he [TX] and [BUSY] indicators light simultaneT ously while transmitting/receiving a signal. · The [TX] indicator lights red. · The [BUSY] indicator lights green. D Base station operation Receiving q Push [POWER] to turn the power ON. Rotate [SELECT]*1 fully counterclockwise in advance. [. . . ] Referring to the table above for VHF/UHF vertical antennas, this gives a front clearance distance of approx. The antenna installation needs to ensure that the lowest part of the antenna is at least 3 m above any point where the general public may gain access and that they cannot pass within 1. 5 m in front of the antenna. If there is no general public access to the roof in question then the antenna could be mounted on a short stub mast. If there is such access to the roof then the antenna could be mounted on top of a short mast of 3. 2 m high. [. . . ]
