2.3 Mounting

Proper Mounting

  • The device is designed for mounting on a vertical surface. For this purpose, a wall– mounting holder is available. Just fit the holder to the wall using dowels and screws and hang the device.

  • It is possible to operate this device in another working position (e.g. on a desk) but it may deteriorate the GSM signal if the antenna is situated horizontally.
  • Do not exceed the allowed working temperature and relative humidity ranges.
  • Exceeding the recommended operating temperature values need not affect the gateway function immediately but may result in a more rapid ageing and lower reliability.
  • The device is intended for indoor use only. It may not be exposed to rain, flowing water, condensed moisture, fog, or mist.
  • The device may not be exposed to aggressive gas, acid vapours, solvents, etc. or aggressive liquids, during cover cleaning, for example.
  • The device is not designed for high-vibration environments, e.g. means of transport, machine rooms, etc.
  • Free space has to be left under and over the device for cables and agitated air to remove operational heat.
  • Install the device on a place with a good UMTS/GSM signal.
  • A misplacement of the GSM/UMTS device or its antenna near television, broadcasting or similar RF-sensitive devices may exercise an adverse effect upon their function.
  • Being a source of RF energy emission, the device antenna should not be located close to human bodies. The hazard is higher than with mobile phones because the device is usually used by many people and thus employed more often. 

Gateway Power Supply

Be sure to use only the mains adapter that is included in your 2N® OfficeRoute delivery.

Caution

  • Before plugging in the device, make sure that the mains voltage value meets the data given on the mains adapter label.
  • Furthermore, make sure that the antenna has been connected. If you connect the device to the power supply without an antenna, the UMTS/GSM module transmitter might get damaged.
  • Warning, This equipment may not operate when mains power fails.

Now plug the mains adapter into a mains socket and connect the adapter connector to the device. The status indicators indicate the proper operation.
