Installation Instructions

KWatt isolation transformer). If you want to protect more devices you should
add the wattage of every unit and multiply by 2.5.
Once you have your transformer installed, you need to verify how good your
ground system is. Every good electrician should have a proper device to
measure the ground. Money invested in measuring your ground can fix
problems and avoid bigger expenses in the future. Every rack and every unit
must be connected to ground.
Once that the electrical connections have been verified, you need to connect
the antenna to the transmitter through the coaxial cable. Verify that the
connector is properly tighten and, in case you have a rigid coaxial cable
feeding the transmitter, install a pigtail with proper power capability and more
flexibility so that you do not put too much pressure on the connector.
Before proceeding to operate, we strongly recommend that you make double
sure an adequate grounding system has been set. Nicom will not be held
responsible for damages to persons and materials if these guidelines are not
followed.
The positioning of the transmitter inside the room is equally important. If the
unit is placed in a rack, make sure there is enough space around for the air to
circulate. Remember that fresh air is positioned lowest in the room. Place
your transmitter as low as possible, but not too close to the floor to avoid
damages due to humidity. Leave at least 2 feet of space behind the
transmitter to allow the warm air flow to circulate without obstruction. We
highly recommend to keep the room cool with an air conditioning system, so
that the unit can work at a constant temperature without excessive humidity
(between 60 and 75 degrees); a temperature over 75 degrees causes the unit
to work in a stressed environment which can negatively impact the life and
performance of the unit.
