Preventive maintenance procedures and scheduling

Attention: Only Kapsch Service-trained service maintenance personnel are to perform

these tasks.

Once a year:

1. Perform RF measurements to verify the cables and MRFM-S. It is recommended a commercial off-the

shelf instrument is used which supports Cable Analyzer Testing, to show faults inside cables, and Voltage

Network Analysis, to verify connection integrity and end to end connectivity and gain.

2. Verify module output power and power at antenna using a commercial off-the shelf spectrum analyzer.

With power off:

1. Inspect and clean the Reader cabinet as needed, depending on the site environmental conditions, such

as contamination by dust. As a minimum, inspect and clean the cabinet interior and components once per

year.

2. Inspect the antenna waterproofing and ensure that any seal is secure.

3. Inspect the antenna weep hole. Remove any dust, dirt or other obstructions.

4. Check ground connectivity for exterior ground connection to reader system ground

Attention: Pre-authorized lane closure is required before continuing with this procedure.

Note: For each channel, go into the web interface and disable the channel to be tested.

1. Disconnect and inspect in-line lightning suppressor.

2. Disconnect and inspect the exterior RF feedline cable and connectors exposed to the elements.

3. If corrosion is visible, replace the corroded connector and, if necessary, cut out the entire corroded

portion of the feedline cable. The antenna may require replacement if the mating female connector is

corroded.

4. When reconnecting connectors after inspection is complete, discard and replace self-amalgamating tape.

Every 4.5 years:

Note: The CMOS battery is not field-replaceable.

1. Replace the CTM CMOS battery.

Note: If a Kapsch TrafficCom maintenance agreement is in place, the CTM needing a new battery can
