1. Scope
This manual provides experienced technicians familiar with similar types of equipment with information
which permit the installation and maintenance of the described product, whose characteristics are
described in the Technical specification Section.
This document does not contain information of the maintenance and configuration software that are
provided with the software itself.
Information contained in this document are valid only for the described RBS ECOS-D VHF A2T 4W
48V (FCCID: X5YF567DHDE-H) of the ECOS-D Family of products, optional cards and ancillaries
included. The technicians must use only the part of information related to the RBS really shipped.
2. First aid for electrical shock and safety rules
2.1 First aid for electrical shock
Do not touch the patient with bare hands until the circuit has been opened. pen the circuit by switching
off the line switches. If that is not possible protect yourself with dry material and free the patient from
the conductor.
2.1.1 Artificial respiration
It is important to start mouth resuscitation at once and to call a doctor immediately. Suggested
procedure for mouth to mouth resuscitation method is described in Table 1.
2.1.2 Treatment of burns
This treatment should be used after the patient has regained consciousness. It can also be employed
while artificial respiration is being applied (in this case there should be at least two persons present).
Warning
• Do not attempt to remove clothing from burnt sections
• Apply dry gauze on the burns
• Do not apply ointments or other oily substances.

2.2 Product Safety and RF Exposure Compliance
2.2.1 RF Exposure Compliance
The described product is intended for use in occupational/controlled conditions, where users have full
knowledge of their exposure and can exercise control over their exposure to meet FCC limits. This
RBS is NOT authorized for any other use.
2.2.2 Electrostatic protection
When the equipment units are provided with the plate, shown in Figure 1 it means that they contain
components electrostatic charge sensitive.
Figure 1 Electrostatic sensitive equipment
In order to prevent the units from being damaged while handling, it is advisable to wear an elasticised
band (Figure 2) around the wrist ground connected through coiled cord (Figure 3) to the appropriate
point on the RBS (Figure 4)

5. Installation
5.1 Overview
The device can be shipped preinstalled in a cabinet or not. If it is not shipped preinstalled in a cabinet,
after unpacking, mechanical installation takes place, followed by electrical connections as described in
this document. The device may be installed in any location suitable for electronic communications
equipment, provided that the environmental conditions do not exceed the equipment specifications for
temperature, humidity, and air quality and that the access to that location is restricted as described
below:
• access can only be gained by service persons or by users who have been instructed about the
reasons for the restrictions applied to the location and about any precautions that be taken;
and
• access is through the use of a tool or lock and key, or other means of security, and is
controlled by the authority responsible for the location
5.1.1 Installation Pre-requisites
To ensures the best possible performance and reliability of the described equipment pre-installation
planning is required. This includes considering the mounting location of the repeater in relation to input
power and antennas. Also to be considered are site environment conditions, the particular mounting
method and required tools and equipment.
To plan the installation, please pay particular attention to environmental condition at the site,
ventilation requirements, and grounding and lightning protection as described in this manual.
After that, following the instruction given in this manual:
• Unpack and inspect the equipment.
• Mechanical install the equipment at the site.
• Make necessary electrical wiring:
- Unit Grounding
- DC input cabling
- Coaxial cables to transmit and receive antennas
• Perform a post-installation function checkout test of the equipment to verify proper installation.
• Proceed to customize the repeater parameters per customer specifications (e.g. operating
frequency, PL, codes, color code, etc.)

5.1.2 Unpack
Inspect the equipment for damage immediately after unpacking and make a report of the extent of any
damage to the transportation company and to SELEX Communications S.p.A.
The following items are packed together:
• ECOS-D A2T Radio Base Station
• DC power cable
• This manual
5.1.3 Mechanical installation
The device is shipped in a box. Upon delivery, the equipment must be removed from the container
(see Unpack section) and transferred to a rack or cabinet if not provided.
If supplied, the metallic cabinet is a 6 RU 19” metallic cabinet. The cabinet is provided with 4 feet and
it is stackable up to three cabinets. The cabinet is provided with two lateral handles to be used only for
handling it during the installation process. The Cabinet is provided with front and rear metallic doors
with locks.
Refer to this manual for all the installation requirements even if the device is supplied with a cabinet.
If the device is supplied without a cabinet it is designed to be fitted in a 19” cabinet using 3 RU of
space.

M6 screws
Customer-supplied cabinets and racks must have mounting rail and hole spacing compatible with EIA
Universal 48.3 cm (19 inches) specifications. Cabinets must provide adequate ventilation and must
meet the following criteria:
• 45.0 cm (17.71 inches) deep
• 48.3 cm (19 inches) wide
• 13.4 cm (5.25 inches) high
• Two mounting rails 5 cm (2 inches) from front cabinet with front mounting holes 5.7 cm (2.25
inches) apart (center to center).
The front of the device is provided with four holes for M6 screws. This permits to fasten the device to a
19” rack by means of 4 M6 screws.
If several devices are installed in a single cabinet, be sure equipment have to be spaced at least by
1/2 RU (2,2 cm, 0,8 inches).to allow for adequate cooling.
Cabinets must have a least 15 cm (6 inches) of open space between the air vents and any wall or
other cabinets. This allows adequate air flow.
When multiple cabinets (each equipped with several repeaters) are installed in an enclosed
area, ensure appropriate ventilation and consider air conditioning or other climate control
equipment to satisfy the temperature requirements.

5.1.4 Electrical wiring
The electrical wiring must be done using appropriate cables thus assuring the equipment responds to
the electromagnetic compatibility standards.
The cable terminates to flying connectors which have to be connected to the corresponding
connectors on the equipment front.
Position and pin–out of the equipment connectors are available in the appropriate section in the
following of this document.
5.1.5 Unit grounding
The device is equipped with a ground nut located on the rear panel of the device and identified by a
label. This nut must be used for a direct connection of the device to the site grounding, even if the
device is included in a cabinet. All antenna cables and DC power cabling should be properly grounded
and lightning protected. Failure to provide proper lightning protection may result in permanent damage
to the radio equipment.
