1. Connect a whip antenna onto the back of the BaseStation.
Select a suitable location for the BaseStation. Tempest is a radio system, broadcasting and receiving RF signals that are
affected by physical and electronic barriers.
The antenna should be located as high as possible and away from all
obstructions. When using a whip (omni-directional) antenna, select a
location as close as possible to the center of the area you want to cover.
Use alternative antenna options when the BaseStation is in a rack or other
metal structure, or stacked with other gear. Remote location antenna
placement of up to 1,500 ft. can be achieved using the Tempest Remote
Transceiver. See the user manual for more details about antenna placement,
recommended cable types, and other antenna options.
2. Connect the power cord and Power On the BaseStation.
3. Install Batteries in BeltStations
Install the Lithium-Polymer battery in each BeltStation. Be certain that the gold
contacts on the battery touch the contacts in the battery compartment. The battery
is shipped with a partial charge, so charging will be necessary before maximum run
time will be achieved.
OR
Insert (3) AA alkaline batteries in the battery compartment. Always replace the
battery cover.
To power ON the BeltStation, press and hold the power button for approximately
two seconds. The display will indicate “None Selected.” Turn the power OFF by
holding the power button for four seconds.
