cInstalling multiple OMEGA units.

To avoid mutual interference when installing more than one OMEGA allow a minimum of four feet between OMEGA units.

Avoiding Hazards

When considering locations for installing OMEGA, avoid the following hazards.

cLocations that prevent you from opening the OMEGA enclosure completely, or prevent you from accessing and viewing the OMEGA components.

cLocations that expose OMEGA to the elements, including direct sunlight, rain, snow, and extreme humidity. While your OMEGA is ruggedized for extreme environments, we recommend that the location you select does not expose OMEGA to harsh conditions.

cLocations prone to radio-frequency or electro-magnetic interference from devices such as security gates, garage doors, and microwave ovens.

cWater or other fluids that surround OMEGA or its cellular transceiver antenna.

Installing OMEGA

After you select a suitable location for OMEGA, obtain cellular telephone service for OMEGA’s cellular transceiver. Then use the following procedures to install OMEGA.
