Antenna SystemAntenna System
This procedure shows how to install an eMax
transmit pedestal and two Ranger receive
antennas with their interconnect cable routed over
the exit between them. Ranger antennas can
mounted using screws or double-sided tape. When
mounting to a door frame, double-sided tape can
be used.
Note: If the transmit pedestal is to be connected to
240Vac, see page __.
IMPORTANT!
• Antennas must be directly opposite the
pedestal and no more than .91m (3') from the
center of each coil in the pedestal. See if you
can mount the antennas to a structure nearest
the pedestal, such as the door frame.
• Antennas must be mounted vertically with their
arrows pointing in the same way; both face up
or both face down.
• The top antenna must be 95cm (37.5 in.) from
the floor; the bottom antenna must be 38cm
(15 in.) from the floor.
• DO NOT install the cover until after verifying
system operation. If you accidentally install the
cover, you can disengage it by pressing a
straightened paper clip into the small hole in
each end of the cover.

ProcedureProcedure
This procedure shows how to install an eMax
transmit pedestal and two Ranger receive
antennas.
IMPORTANT! The transmit pedestal can be
installed either on the right or left side of the exit. In
this example, the pedestal is mounted on the right
side of the exit and ranger antennas on the left. In
this case, arrows molded into the Ranger antennas
must face down. If the installation is to be reversed
(Rangers on the left), arrows in the Ranger
antennas must face up.
1. Ensure eMax pedestal and Ranger antennas
are .9m (3 ft) apart, center-to-center, then
using a pencil, mark the outline of the pedestal
base and its mounting hole locations. Move the
base out of the way and drill mounting holes
9cm (3-1/2 in.) deep using a 1.25cm (1/2 in.)
drill bit.
Outline mounting locations on the side of the
exit for Ranger antennas. The top antenna
must be 95cm (37.5 in.) from the floor; the
bottom antenna must be 38cm (15 in.) from the
floor.
2. Run the 7.6m (25 ft) interconnect cable
supplied through Wiremold supplied from the
base location to the top antenna. Position
Wiremold between top and bottom Ranger
antennas.
3. Position the base ensuring the end of the cable
(with the connector) exits the center of the
base and extends .3m (1 ft) above it. Secure
the base using anchors supplied.
4. Wipe the surface inside the outline clean with
the alcohol pad and let dry. Then, ensuring its
arrows are facing the appropriate way (up for
the right side of the exit, down for the left side),
secure each Ranger antenna by peeling the
lining off the adhesive and affixing the antenna
in place.
5. Cut the un-terminated end of the interconnect
cable to length, strip the cable jacket back
about an inch, and strip the black, red, green,
and white wires. Connect wires to the four-
position terminal block J1 in the top Ranger
antenna as shown.
Cut the short cable to length, allowing slack to
crimp drain wire. On both ends of the short
cable, strip the cable jacket and the white and
green wires. On each Ranger antenna,
