CAUTION
Be sure the power being supplied matches
the power required by the equipment.
CAUTION
Power supply cords and cables must be
protected. Do not run cords where they can
be walked upon. Protect cables against
pinching and chafing. Pay special attention
to locations where the cables enter or exit
an enclosure or make a sharp bend.
CAUTION
Ensure that the electrical supply is protected
by over-current protection devices, as
required by the applicable electrical codes.
Each installation or deployment will have its own specific tasks
according to the application and the installed hardware. The
following section describes mounting and cabling the PTX-PRO.
6.5.1 Portable Deployment
For portable applications, the PTX-PRO will typically be moved
from place to place and set up each time. The power, antenna,
and audio/video connections are usually removed at the end of
each deployment.
Mounting - MRC Tripod The PTX-PRO will typically be
attached to a Quick Release Mount for easy mounting on an
MRC tripod. The Quick Release Mount is attached to the bottom
of the PTX-PRO using four 1/2-inch long, #6-32, flat head
screws. The Quick Release Mount typically remains attached to
the PTX-PRO. The Quick Release Mount and PTX-PRO are
then attached to the Dovetail Adapter Plate machined into the
MRC tripod mount. See Figure 6-1.
