Manpack Transceiver 2110 series Reference Manual 47
Installing the transceiver
On receiving your 2110 series Manpack Transceiver, check the contents against the
packing list. Make sure that all equipment itemised on the packing list is present before
you start installing the system.
Open each packing case and examine the contents for signs of damage. If you notice any
damage, contact Codan immediately. Failure to contact Codan before returning the unit
may result in any warranty being void.
We recommend that the equipment is installed by qualified and experienced personnel,
to the relevant standards and approvals.
Positioning the transceiver
When choosing a location for the components of the transceiver, you should be aware of
the environmental ratings of each item of equipment as set out on page 381,
Specifications. They must be mounted in a suitable position that:
• provides physical protection to the transceiver and its cables, for example, avoid
floor mounting where the transceiver and cables may be subjected to accidental
contact
• allows easy access to the controls
• allows a free flow of air around the transceiver to dissipate heat
• does not expose the unit to direct sunlight
• does not expose the unit to water ingress, if possible
• will not cause injury to motor-vehicle occupants if an accident occurs, for example,
do not mount the transceiver overhead
• minimises vibration and shock
• ensures correct connection and operation
• allows easy maintenance
NOTE
All antennas are supplied completely assembled and ready for
installation.
WARNING
While the following information is intended to assist with installation in a
vehicle, it is the purchaser’s responsibility to ensure that the mounting
cradle is installed with due regard to vehicle-occupant safety, particularly
in the event of a vehicle accident. Codan accepts no responsibility or
liability in the event of injury to vehicle occupants or any other damage
due to insecure or otherwise unsafe or inappropriate installation of the
mounting cradle.
