Below are the basic steps for installing the MDS TransNET 900™

transceivers. In most cases, these steps alone will be sufficient to complete the

installation. Should further information be required, contact the factory at the

number given on the inside back cover of this manual.

If you are installing a peer-to-peer or tail-end link systems, you should also

review Sections 5.2 (Page 16) and 5.3 (Page 17) for important details on

antennas, cabling and software settings.

NOTE: It is recommended that the master station be installed first. In this

way, it will be possible to quickly check the operation of each asso-

ciated remote station as it is placed on the air.

5.1 Transceiver Installation

1. Mount the transceiver to a stable surface using the brackets supplied with

the radio. (Fasteners/anchors are not supplied.) Figure 12 shows the

dimensions of the transceiver case and its mounting bracket. If possible,

choose a mounting location that provides easy access to the connectors on

the end of the radio and an unobstructed view of the LED status indicators.
