4.7 Ground Connections

1) The EVENT 5800 should be connected to a system or building electrical ground point

(rack ground or power third-wire ground) with a cable of 36” or less.

2) Connect the grounding wire to either grounding point (Controller I/O or Master I/O)

on the back panel. Use 6-32x5/16 maximum length screws (not provided) to fasten

the lug of the grounding cable.

3) Connect the other end of the ground to the local source of ground in an appropriate

manner consistent with local electrical regulations.

4.8 Antenna/Feed System

4.8.1 Antenna Mounting

The antennas used as part of the EVENT 5800 system are directional. The energy

radiated is focused into a narrow beam by the transmitting antenna and must be aligned

towards the receiving antenna. The type of antenna used in a particular installation will

depend on frequency band and antenna gain requirements. These parameters are

determined by the path analysis.
