4 Guidelines for Installing
The electrical connection for powering the GATEWAY-LITE as well as the
connection to external equipment for reading the dry contact outputs must only
be carried out by qualified and competent personnel. The installation must comply
with the local electrical safety rules applicable for the installation site.
4.1 Mounting Dimensions
The GATEWAY-LITE must be placed in a cabinet,
mounted on a DIN rail. Make sure there is enough
clearance around the product, especially in height. For
good radio performance, no metal element should be
located near the antenna.
If it’s impossible to provide enough space without a metal mass around the supplied
antenna, it is recommended to move it. In this case, you can use the extension cable
distributed by HIKOB. Its reference is SMA AH-AC100A-50.
If the cabinet is strongly metallic and a simple move is not enough, HIKOB distributes
under the reference ANT SH-AC100A, a puck antenna that can be installed outside
the cabinet.
Whatever, the antenna cable must never exceed 3m in any case.
