Installing AP Cover AIR-ACC1560-CVR=
Installing AP Cover AIR-ACC1560-CVR=
You can install an AP cover AIR-ACC1560-CVR=, which also acts as a a solar shield. The cover can be
installed prior to or after all connections are made. However, if remote cabled antennas are to be
installed, the shield must be installed before the antenna cables are attached to the AP.
Step 1 This step applies only to AP1562D models.
The cover AIR-ACC1560-CVR= is factory fitted with an adapter for installing on AP models AP1562I
and AP1562E. You need to remove this adapter before installing the cover on AP1562D AP models. For
this:
a. Slide a large flat blade screw driver into the opening shown in Figure 2-18.
b. Pry up the adapter while pushing the screw driver further into it, until the adapter pop out.
c. Discard the adapter.
Step 2 Position and slide the cover over the AP as shown in Figure 2-19.
Step 3 Align the two holes on each side of the cover with the screw holes on corresponding side of the AP.
Step 4 Insert and install #8-32 screws through the screw holes in the cover and into the AP. Tighten the screws
to 10 lb-in.
