WARNING:

Use extreme care when installing antennas near power lines.

WARNING:

Use extreme care when working at heights.

WARNING:

The Outdoor unit (ODU) for the PTP 400 Series Bridge must be properly

grounded to protect against lightning. It is the user’s responsibility to install the equipment in

accordance with Section 810 of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA No.70-1984 or

Section 54 of the Canadian Electrical Code. These codes describe correct installation

procedures for grounding the ODU, mast, lead-in wire and discharge unit, size of grounding

conductors and connection requirements for grounding electrodes. It is recommended that

installation of the ODU be contracted to a professional installer.

The ODU for the PTP 400 Series Bridge MUST be grounded to a Protective

Earth as described in Section 7.7.5 “Grounding the Installation” of this Installation Manual and

in accordance with the Local Electrical Regulations.

WARNING:

It is recommended that the supplied Power Indoor Plus (PIDU Plus) – PTP 400

Series is used to power the PTP 400 Series Bridge ODU. The use of other power sources

may invalidate safety approval and affect your warranty.

WARNING:

When using alternate DC supplies (via the PIDU Plus DC in terminals as

described in Section 3.3.3 Redundancy and Alternate Powering Configurations”), such as

battery-backed DC power source, the supply MUST comply with the following requirements:

• The voltage and polarity is correct and is applied to the correct terminals in the PTP 400

Series Bridge PIDU Plus

• The power source is rated as SELV
• The power source is rated to supply at least 1A continuously, and
• The power source cannot provide more than the Energy Hazard Limit as defined by

IEC/EN/UL6090, Clause 2.5, Limited Power (The Energy Hazard Limit is 240VA)

CAUTION:

When the system is operational, avoid standing directly in front of the antenna.

Strong RF fields are present when the transmitter is on. The Outdoor Unit (ODU) must not be

deployed in a location where it is possible for people to stand or walk inadvertently in front of

the antenna.

CAUTION:

Users and installers should note that in an emergency the mains power supply is

the primary disconnect device.
