4.0 INSTALLATION PLANNING
This section discusses the factors to be considered before installing the radio.
Careful planning of the installation site will help achieve optimal performance
from the transceiver. Step-by-step installation procedures begin on Page 25.
Figure 11 shows a typical remote station arrangement. The specific details at
an installation site may vary, but there are three main requirements for
installing the transceiver in all cases:
• Adequate and stable primary power
• An efficient and properly installed antenna system
• Correct interface connections between the transceiver and the data
device.
