Installing the antenna
The following drawing shows the APA203 panel antenna.
For fastening the antenna on site, use flat head screws with a thread diameter not larger than 5
mm and suitable washers. Do not use countersunk screws for this purpose as this could lead to
a damage of the plastic frame.
Please avoid exposing the antenna to direct sunlight permanently. Installing
the antenna in an area sheltered from ultraviolet light will extend its
durability.
Please ensure that the antenna and the antenna cable do not interfere with
movements of animals or persons close to the system. The antenna cable
should be fastened with cable ties or it should be inside protective pipes.
Please consider mechanically moving parts (like gates) very carefully. Do
not fix cables where they can be stretched or damaged by animals.
