Appendix: Dual Lane Installation Instructions
This section provides a procedure for installing and configuring any system
where there are two base stations (tandem, side-by-side, or dual drive thru). It is
meant to be a time-saving reference that can be performed on existing drive-
thrus that may be in-service during the installation.
Important Note:
Interconnected base stations must be the same revision level.
Note:
3M recommends that the base stations be as close together as possible.
