Verifying Equipment and Unpacking
Verify that all equipment has arri ved. Mak e
❑
sure the system configuration is the right one
for the installation site.
Unpack major components i n a back room. At
❑
the install site, lay out parts in the order you will
need them. Do not clutter the aisle or cause a
trip hazard.
The capacitor board is in a cardboard

Chemical Interaction
WARNING!
!
Do not install this product in hazardous
areas where highly combustible or
explosive products are stored or used.
Antenna Placement and Cabling
Whenever possible, keep t he antennas at least
❑
2.4m (8') away from noise sources suc h as
computer monitors, TV’s, switching power
supplies, a nd neon displays.
Maximum cable distance from the antennas to
❑
the capacitor board enclosure is 12.2m (40').
DO NOT splice antenna cables.
Maximum cable dista nce from the power pac k
❑
to the cap board enclosure is 2m (7').
WARNING!
!
DO NOT compromise the structural
integrity of the floor by cutting or removing
rebar. Contractors must obtain approval for
all proposed structural changes. All
structural changes must meet national and
local requirements.
CAUTION:
cost t o the in- floor instal lation, check detector per formance and label detection height at the exact
installation s ite. Do this BEFORE cutting the floor
and again BEFORE pouring the concrete.
❏
Loca te panels i nside the facilit y and as c lo s e to
exit doors as possible.
❏
To provide 1.8m (6') of coverage widt h per
panel, space panels no more than 25-30c m
(10-12") apar t. Spacing of 25cm (10") is
recommended.
❏
For On Grade installatio ns, the pane ls must be
between 3cm (1.25") and 5cm (2") below t he
surface of t he finished floor.
❏
For Off Grade installation, the pa nels must be
1.25cm (.5") below the surface of the finished
floor.
❏
For On Grade installatio ns, no metal such as
rebar or wire mesh should be located under or
adjacent to t he antenna. If metal is required, it
must be spaced great er than 21cm (8") from
the bottom and 31cm (12") in all other
directio ns from the antenna.
❏
For conduit runs, use 3/4-inch Electrical Metal
Tub i ng (EMT) or rigid conduit (
the maximum run not to exceed 10.5m (35') t o
allow adequate cable length for system
connectio ns. Some local codes requir e r igid
conduit instead of EMT for concrete burial.
Some local codes require steel hardwar e in
concrete to be coat ed by tape or paint before
burial.
❏
Use two separ at e conduit runs for each
antenna. Conduit r un must be a minimum of
20cm (8") fr om the antennas. Conduit ca nnot
cross above or below t he antenna. It must be
routed around the perimeter .

❏
All conduit fittings must be rain/concrete tight. A
3/4-inch EMT fitting is s upplied with the
antenna. A rigid 3/4-i nch rain/concrete tight
fitt ing may be substituted. Wrap t hreads w ith
four turns of Teflon pipe tape.
❏
Minimize underground conduit couplings to
prevent moisture i ntrusion.
❏
Hi gh stre ngth, non-me tallic, non-shrink
mortar/ concret e w it h a compressive strength of
5000 psi is required.(For example, FX- 228
mortar mix and FX-752 bondi ng agent by Fox
Industries)
❏
Mort ar cure time depends on the mix and
temperature of t he mortar ingredients.
❏
Avoid walking on antenna cables duri ng
installation.
❏
Heavy forklifts can pass over the mortar after
24 hours, provided the mortar is protected by
3/4-inch steel plates.
Have on hand tools and equipment necessary
❑
to place the mortar once it is mixed.
Enclosure
❏
Mount the cap board enclosure as close to t he
power pack as possible. M aximum dista nce
from the power pack to the enclosure is 2m (7').
Install a heater in enclosures i n sub-fr eezing
❑
environments.
If conduit is not used, use Romex connectors
❑
wherever cables enter the power pack and
capacitor boar d enclosure.

The antenna is shipped with default settings that
are acceptable f or most installations. However, the
antenna may require tuning to adjust f or conditions
at the installation site.
The antenna is tuned by changing jumper set t ings
on the capacitor boards in the enclos ure. The
power pack assist s tuning by lighting LEDs to
indicate the correct jumper settings.
To tune the antenna, do the following for eac h
antenna:
1. If necessar y, turn off the power pack.
6. Change the ju mpers on t he capacitor board
to the set t ings indicated by the yellow LE Ds
on the capacitor board. Refer t o Figure 14.
WARNING—RISK OF ELECTRIC
SHOCK!
The green Tx Off LED on the capacitor
board must be ON before changing
jumpers. It indicates there are no high
voltages on the board.
If a yellow jumper LED is on, place the
corresponding jumper in the 1-2 position.
If a yellow jumper LED is off, place the
corresponding jumper in the 2-3 position.
