2Installation and User Guide 98-1178 Rev AA 9InstallationFor All InstallationsProper planning and thorough preparation are critical to successful installation of the Landis+Gyr Gridstream RF Series IV Mesh Extender (Extender).Safety OverviewPrior to starting the installation process, you must develop and launch an installer safety training plan for initial, refresher and ongoing safety training. Ensure that installers receive appropriate initial and refresher training to meet their specific safety-related responsibilities. You must provide safety training when:•An existing installer assumes new duties for which he or she has not previously received training.•New processes and methodologies representing new risks are introduced into the installation environment.•Previously unidentified risks are reportedThe installation supervisory team assumes responsibility for ensuring that installers are properly trained, authorized, and continually qualified to perform their work. The team must also take responsibility for the safety of their installers and to assure safe work methodologies. Installers must understand that their supervisor’s responsibility does not relieve them from their individual responsibility to perform the work safely and to follow all safety rules and procedures applicable to their workSafety PrecautionsEach individual utility will have its own interpretation of local codes and regulations governing the installation and placement of equipment on a power distribution pole. The utility or municipality determines the final guidelines of where to install the . Know and follow the utility or municipality guidelines before installing the Extender.UWARNING: Follow all local safety precautions for working around high voltage lines.ACAUTION: Follow all FCC regulations for placement of the Extender on the pole.DRAFT 5.14.2012
Chapter 2 - Installation Landis+Gyr10 98-1178 Rev AA Installation and User GuideExtender Installation OverviewThe final guidelines provided by the utility or municipality determine where the Extender can be installed. It is the installer’s responsibility to know and follow the utility or municipality guidelines before installing the Extender. The utility provides installation information for every Extender to be installed, such as:•Street address or Latitude/Longitude of site location. •Type of mounting (wood pole, streetlight pole, building, etc.)•Access method (bucket truck or climbed manually).Power RequirementsVerify that the power source between 120 VAC and 240 VAC. Power source must have a constant supply of voltage.NOTE: Poles selected for Extender installation must have a constant supply of voltage. Many streetlights are fed by a switched source that is controlled by a master switch, elsewhere. A pole that is powered only half a day, everyday will produce a failure condition.AntennaThe Extender requires an antenna to communicate with the endpoints and to relay information from the endpoint to the host application. The antenna is mounted directly to the top of the Extender enclosure by means of an N-type connector. Only the authorized antenna (provided with the Extender) may be used. The Extender may be orientated with the antenna either up or down to obtain the best communication path for your location.NOTE: If the Extender is mounted upside down (antenna up), always inspect and verify the presence of an O-ring on the antenna base. The O-ring is included with the antenna. Verify that the O-ring has no physical deformities that could compromise the water tight seal at the base of the antenna.Parts and MaterialsWhen receiving system components, carefully inspect the packaging and contents for any damage, and file any necessary damage claims with the shipper.
