The optimal installation of the 1420 Wireless Gateway is
on a pole approximately 1.8 meters above the top of the
exterior wall of a building. The following hardware and
tools are needed:
• Pipe mount with holes spaced 3.06 inches (78 mm)
apart horizontally and 11.15 inches (283 mm) apart
vertically.
• Two 3.06 inch (78 mm) by
5
/
16
inch U-bolts
•
1
/
2
inch wrench
Mount the gateway by doing the following:
1. Insert one U-bolt around the pipe and through the
top mounting holes of the pipe mount and the 1420,
and another U-bolt through the bottom mounting
holes of the pipe mount and the 1420.
2. Using a
1
/
2
inch socket-head wrench, fasten the nuts
to the U-bolts and tighten.
BEST PRACTICE
When mounting outside, best practice is to run the
Serial or primary Ethernet cable (P1) directly to the
Information System. Use conduit and/or strain relief
as necessary.
BEST PRACTICE
When installing cable/conduit, run an ethernet
connection from 1420 port P2 to a convenient
location indoors (if the 1420 was ordered with
Output Code 2). This will simplify future
configuration changes.
