• Avoid direct contact with the circ u i t ry to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD).

•NEVER transmit without an antenna attached to the transmitter.

•Ensure proper data pin connections.

•During normal paging operations, position the paging transmitter antenna

vertically to maximize paging range. When using a transmitter in the shelf

mount configuration, use a right angle coaxial antenna adapter for proper

antenna positioning.

•Install the APSXMTR unit as a wall-mount unit or in some other secure

location.

•Right angle brackets and screws are provided for wall mounting.

2.4 Connecting the Unit

The physical components of the system include:

✔APS Custom unit

✔Transmitter

✔Antenna

✔DB9 Null Modem Cable

✔DB9 Cable to Flying Leads

✔DB9 to DB25 Modem Cable

To connect the unit, follow the steps below.

1. Connect the telephone line inputs. Line 1 is for Port 1 and must be connected

correctly to ensure successful system operation. Line 2 is for Port 2 used as

the second call handling port in higher traffic. Line 3 is for the outbound

port, Port 3, used for wide area and/or overhead paging.

NOTE: To ensure proper operation of the unit, the physical line connections

must match the information specified in the PCI database.

2. Connect the data cables to the unit and transmitter. The power LED on the

unit will be lit.

3. Optionally, connect one or more of the contact closure port pins to external

dry contact closure type switches. Please refer to the contact closure port pin

specification for proper connection (Figure 2-1). A closure between any contact

pin (1-8) and Common (pin 9) will cause that event to activate. For more

detailed information on contact closures, refer to section 3.2.5, Configuring

Contact Closure Event Scripts.
