Connecting Noise Canceling
Antennas
You can connect one set of noise canceling
antennas to the AMS-9030 controller. You can use
either the Ranger antennas (ZKNC-R) or the
Skymax antennas (ZKNC-SM). You connect the
noise canceling antennas at connector P21 on the
controller. Figure 6 shows the location of the
connector and its pinout.
Connecting Multiple 9030
Controllers
If you install adjacent (within 1.1m (3.5’)) antennas
attached to different controllers, the energy from
one antenna can couple with the other and
produce an over-current situation. The system will
then shut down periodically for ten seconds and log
an error. To prevent this, multiple controllers
attached to adjacent antennas must be wired
together to synchronize their transmissions.
In wired synchronization, one controller is
designated as the master and the others as slaves.
The master controller uses the P9 connector to
send a synchronization signal to the P9 connector
on the slave controllers. The procedure for
installing wired synchronization follows.
CAUTION: If any controller goes off,
wired sync does not work for any slave
controller in the sequence. Disconnect
wired sync before powering off a
controller.
1. Route two 0.35mm (22 AWG) or heavier wires
from the master controller to each slave
controller.
The maximum distance between the master and
any slave for 22 AWG wire is 25m (80’). If the
distance between controllers is greater than
25m (80’), consult Tech Support for the proper
wire gauge.
2. Connect the two wires to each master and slave
controller as shown in Figure 11.
3. Turn on the controllers.
4. Use the configurator to set the Setup screen
parameters in the controllers to the following
values.
• Antenna Type – This parameter should be
set to Transceiver, even if only one
antenna is connected to the controller. A
single antenna should be set to
Transceiver so that its transmit rep rate will
match the rep rate of the adjacent antenna.
• Auto-Detection – This parameter should
be set to Off. Otherwise, if the site has a
power outage, the controller will reboot and
won’t set single antennas to Transceiver
Type.
