RLY-800 Radio Frequency Relay (Brazil)

Installing the RLY-800 on a Light Pole Arm

Mounting the RLY-800 to a light pole arm requires 
two customer-supplied band clamps.

Ensure that the front door has room to open at least 
90 degrees. The minimum required clearance is 8 
inches (20.3 cm) in front of the mounting surface.

Perform the following steps to install the RLY-800 on 
a light pole arm:

1. Identify the mounting location for the RLY-800 

on the light pole arm.

2. Orient the RLY-800 and mounting bracket 

assembly as required for the installation. 
If the RLY-800 uses an internal antenna, mount 
the device on the bottom side of the light pole 
arm so that the door is facing the ground as 
shown in 

Figure 12

.

If the RLY-800 uses an external antenna 
installed on the RLY-800 enclosure, mount the 
device on the side of the light pole arm as 
shown in 

Figure 13

.

3. Secure the RLY-800 and mounting bracket 

assembly to the light pole arm using band clamps. 
The clamps are installed at each end of the 
bracket covering the lag bolt holes.

If an external remote antenna is to be used with 
the RLY-800, proceed with 

“Installing an External 

Remote Antenna” on page 11

.You are ready to 

supply power to the RLY-800 as described in 

“Wiring the RLY-800” on page 12

 or 

“Wiring the 

RLY-800 to a Street Light Sensor” on page 12

CAUTION:

As shown in 

Figure 13

, RLY-800’s that

use an external attached antenna must be oriented
so that the antenna is pointing towards the ground;
otherwise, moisture may damage the RLY-800.
