Antenna Locaon
Proper antenna locaon is essenal for the best system performance and maximum
range. Antenna posioning is important with all RF systems and in all applicaons.
Locate the Tempest BaseStaon antenna as high as possible for your applicaon
to maximize line-of-sight RF operaon. Posioning the antenna higher than head
level is the minimum acceptable height for most applicaons. Maintaining line of
sight between the BaseStaon antenna and the BeltStaon(s) is ideal.
When using mulple BaseStaons, keep as much space between the antennas as
possible, but at least twenty-four inches is recommended. Increase the distance
between antennas to improve performance.
If possible, locate the antenna(s) away from any metal obstrucons and away from walls or other signicant structures, by
at least 24 inches.
When using omni-direconal (Whip) antennas always locate the antennas as close to the center of the coverage area as
possible. Omni-direconal antennas have a circular paern and radiate RF energy equally in all direcons at approximately
a 90° angle to the element of the antenna.
Other antenna opons are available including direconal and higher gain antennas. Please contact your dealer or distributor
for more informaon on oponal antennas. Only use approved antennas. Unauthorized antennas may be illegal.
Using more than one BaseStaon permits an increase in the number of wireless BeltStaons within an area, or by ulizing
the iSelect roaming feature, allows increasing the area covered and even allows for the creaon of separate but adjacent
or overlapping coverage areas. The number of BaseStaons that can be ulized in a system is limited by RF compeon
between systems and several other RF condions. Judicious placement of antennas can help facilitate a large number of
wireless BeltStaon users on a single system.

When rack mounng the Tempest BaseStaon or when it is stacked with other equipment
always remote mount antennas or use the Tempest Remote Transceiver to assure
maximum operaonal range.
