CHAPTER 3
INSTALLATION
3-1. SCOPE
This Chapter provides installation instructions for Micom-Z.
The information presented in this Chapter includes:
• Unpacking – para. 3-2.
• Installation planning guidelines – para. 3-3.
• Installation procedures for Micom-Z – para. 3-4, 3-5 and 3-6.
• Post-installation checks – para. 3-7.
Do not touch the antenna and the RF connectors when the
Micom-Z is turned on.
Make sure that the antenna is not located near high-voltage lines.
During transmission, high RF voltages appear at the RF
connectors, the antenna cables, and on the antenna itself. These
voltages may cause severe injury or death on contact.
Operating and maintenance personnel must be familiar with the
applicable safety requirements and regulations before attempting
to install or operate Micom-Z radio sets. Severe injury or death
could result from failure to comply with the safety practices.
3-2. UNPACKING
a. A preliminary inspection of the equipment containers should be made prior to unpacking.
Evidence of damage should be noted and reported immediately to the proper authorities.
Unpack the equipment as follows:
(1) Place each container on a clean flat surface, cut all straps, and open or remove the top.
(2) Take out each item carefully and place it securely on a clean surface.
(3) Remove the packing material while looking for small items.
(4) Fold and store the containers and packing materials in accordance with standard
procedures.
b. Checking Unpacked Equipment.
(1) Inspect all items for damage. Immediately report any damage found.
(2) Check all items against the items listed in the accompanying packing slip and/or the
appropriate list of items given in the equipment manuals.
(3) Report any missing items or discrepancies. Shortage of a minor part which does not affect
the proper functioning of the equipment should not prevent use of the equipment.
