2 Installation

The Cv2 can be installed before or after the configuration has been transferred from the PC to the unit. If the Cv2 is configured in the shop before it is installed in the field, all of the programmed parameters and voices will remain unchanged in the unit’s non-volatile flash memory.

2.1 Antenna requirements

The antenna used for your installation will depend on the proximity of the alarm unit to the cellular carrier facility. If the installation is very close to a cell site, a portable style antenna can be connected directly to the RF connector on the Cv2. If the distance between the installation and the nearest cell site does not provide adequate signal strength to operate with the small antenna, then an outdoor or other high gain antenna will be required. Antenna system details for this type of antenna installation -- antenna type, height and coaxial cable type -- will depend on the particulars of the site.

If you use the directly connected antenna, it should be oriented vertically.

2.2 Mounting

The Cv2 is available in two versions: the packaged unit which is housed in an enclosure complete with a battery backed power supply and a programming phone set, or the stand- alone version which is the Cv2 alarm reporter without the above accessories.

2.2.1 Packaged model

The packaged model should be mounted onto a wall or other vertical surface in a location where the temperature cannot exceed the Cv2 rating.

Before connecting AC power, confirm that the setting of the voltage range switch on the power supply module is set for the correct input, either 110 or 220 VAC.

Connect AC power to the terminal strip on the power supply module. Connect the antenna or coaxial feed line to the remote antenna onto the TNC coaxial jack on the Cv2.

Connect the input and output signal lines between the Cv2 and the equipment that you want to monitor and control. Details of the

Figure 3 Packaged Cv2input and output ports are discussed later in this chapter.
