This section contains an assembly drawing and parts list for the OEM
Evaluation Board. In addition, a separate foldout schematic of the Board is
included at the back of this manual. Board documentation is provided to assist
integrators who need to create compatible interface circuitry between the
OEM transceiver and host equipment.
NOTE: The foldout schematic may also be accessed from the TransNET Support
Package CD, or from our website at: www.microwavedata.com.

4.3Evaluation Board Fuse Replacement
The Evaluation Board is protected by a 2 ampere fuse. The fuse can be blown
by an over-current condition caused by an internal failure or over-voltage.
Follow the procedure below to remove and replace the fuse:
1. Disconnect the primary power cable and all other connections to the
Evaluation Board.
2. Locate the fuse holder assembly , FH1, behind the green power connector,
J3.
3. Loosen the fuse from the holder using a very small screwdriver, then use
a small pair of needle-nose pliers to pull the fuse straight up and out of
the holder.
4. Use an ohmmeter or other continuity tester to verify that the fuse is open.
5. Install a new fuse in the holder. Replacement fuse information: Littelfuse
#0454002; 452 Series, 2 Amp SMF Slo-Blo fuse (MDS Part No.
29-1784A03).
This section provides information for mounting the OEM transceiver in a host
device. The module need only be protected from direct exposure to the
weather. No additional RF shielding is required.
5.1Mounting Dimensions
Figure 15 shows the dimensions of the transceiver board and its mounting
holes. If possible, choose a mounting location that provides an unobstructed
view of the radio’s LED status indicators when viewing the board from
outside the host device.
Mount the transceiver module to a stable surface using the four mounting
holes at the corners of the PC board. Standoff spacers should be used to
maintain adequate clearance between the bottom of the circuit board and the
mounting surface. (Fasteners/anchors are not normally supplied.)

5.2Antennas & Feedlines
A number of omnidirectional and directional antennas are available for use
with the radio. Contact your factory representative for specific
recommendations on antenna types and hardware sources. In general, an
omnidirectional antenna (Figure 16) is used at master station sites in order to
provide equal coverage to all of the remote units.
At remote sites and in many point-to-point systems, a directional Yagi
antenna (Figure 17) is generally recommended to minimize interference to
and from other users and to maximize range.
For systems operating in a very short range environment, small, flexible whip
antennas may also be supplied. Such antennas are available for direct
connection to the transceiver module, or for exterior mounting with various
lengths of feedline.

Feedlines
The feedline supplied with the antenna was carefully selected to minimize RF
loss and ensure regulatory compliance with the antenna being used. Do not
make substitutions or change the lengths of the antenna system feedline. If
you require a different length of feedline for your installation, contact your
factory representative for assistance.
NOTE: Strong fields near the antenna can interfere with the operation of the low level
RTU circuits and change the reported values of the data being monitored. If interference is experienced, it may be necessary to re-orient the antenna with respect to the radio, RTU, sensors or other components of the system.
