Dedrone Safety radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
The RF-360 Dedrone Despite careful construction, electrical devices can cause fires. Do not mount the RF-360 in areas containing highly flammable materials or gases. Do not mount the RF-360 in a potentially explosive atmosphere. Do not install product near any heat sources such as radiators, heaters, exhaust air systems or other equipment (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

Select the Mounting Place Dedrone •• Base station and other strong signale sources The detected signals are getting interfered. •• Any excessive heat sources •• Any overhead power lines, power circuits, or electrical lights Electrical discharge can damage the device. Select a secure installation location and mounting position for the device. Ideally, this is a location where the device cannot be interfered with, either intentionally or accidentally. 5.
Dedrone Select the Mounting Place Both RF-360s detect a direction in alignment to the right. The overlapping area covers the complete bearing of the other RF-360. The position can’t be determind. Both RF-360s detect a direction against each other. No exact position can be determined. With three RF-360s there is no blind area. The third RF-360s can always varify the area of intersection.
Installation Dedrone Mounting Orientation •• Important for a good result is the vertical alignment of the device. Do not tilt the device. 5.4 Overvoltage Protection For safe mounting in an exposed position overvoltage protection must be observed. Ensure that the mast is connected to the lightning conductor of the building and there is a metallic contact between the mast mount and the mast. The lightning conductor must be installed at least 1.5 m above the RF-360.
Dedrone Installation •• Power over Ethernet via the supplied patch cable. `` Make sure, that your network has activated active PoE+ (802.3at). 6.2 Cable Requirements To connect the sensor with another cable as the supplied, note the following requirements. Type Cat-6 patch cable, shielded, suitable for outdoor use Recommendation: Cat-7 patch pable, shielded, suitable for outdoor use Maximum Length 328 ft (100 m) For longer distances a PoE extender is required External Diameter 3.5 mm – 7.5 mm 6.
Installation Dedrone 6.4 Install the Sensor `` Desired mounting place fulfills the requirements (see chapter 5 Select the Mounting Place, page 7). `` Diameter of the pole: between 1.2 in to 3.1 in (40 mm to 80 mm) Procedure: 1 Open the carton, remove the upper foam. 2 Open the cover: •• Stuck the supplied tool in the slot between the cover screws. •• Gently pry the cover on both sides. ]]The cover comes up a little bit. 3 Remove the cover and put it aside.
Dedrone Installation 7 Adjust the pole mount in the desired direction and tighten the pole fixing screws appropriately. Only use the supplied screws. 8 Center the pole mount plate over the pole and tighten the aligning screws appropriately. Only use the supplied screws. 9 If fall protection according to the installation regulations is required screw down the supplied fall protection ring and connect your suitable fall protection to the ring.
Installation 11 Dedrone To connect the RF-360 to your local network, connect the patch cable with the outdoor housing to the network socket: •• Remove the protective cap from the plug. •• Plug the Ethernet cable with the outdoor housing into the plug (1). Make sure that the plug orientation fits the socket. 2 •• Rotate the housing until it is locked (2). •• Lay the cable in the cable guide (3). If you want to operate the RF-360 via PoE+, make sure that PoE+ (802.
Dedrone 12 Integrate the RF-360 in your DroneTracker To operate the RF-360 via the supplied AC cable, connect the AC cable to the AC socket: •• Remove the protective cap from the AC plug. •• Plug the AC cable into the plug (1). 1 ]]The plug clicks into place and the arrow on the plug points to the lock symbol on the socket. •• Lay the cable in the cable guide (2). •• Plug the AC plug into the socket.
Integrate the RF-360 in your DroneTracker Dedrone Requirements: `` RF-360 is installed `` The power supply is working and the button at the RF-360 illuminates blue `` RF-360 is connected to the network `` The IP address of the DroneTracker Server is known Procedure: 1 Start your web-browser and enter the address of your DroneTracker Server. For an optimal use, Dedrone recommends Chrome or Firefox. 2 Log in the DroneTracker UI as an administrator or configurator.
Dedrone Integrate the RF-360 in your DroneTracker 7.2 Integrate the RF-360 via Dedrone Cloud Requirements: `` RF-360 is installed `` The power supply is working and the LED at the RF-360 illuminates blue `` RF-360 is connected to the Dedrone Cloud `` The address of your Dedrone Cloud access is known (provided by Dedrone) `` The registration key of the sensor is available (provided by Dedrone) Procedure: 1 Start your web-browser and enter the address of your Dedrone Cloud.
Cleaning Dedrone 8 Cleaning Wrong cleaner damages the housing The wrong cleaner can damage the housing or antenna of the RF-360. Never use glass cleaner or other solvent cleaner to clean the RF-360. ••Use solvent-free cleaner to clean the RF-360. 9 Decommissioning 9.1 Shut down the RF-360 RF-360 breaks By disconnecting the cable of the power supply without shut down the RF-360, the RF-360 could break. ••Always shut down the RF-360 before disconnecting the cable.
