2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The base-station is a robust, weatherproof device capable of being mounted outdoors and
withstanding wide temperature / humidity ranges (-40°C to +70°
C, 0 - 98% RH). The casing is
constructed of an ABS plastic, which is impact- and UV-resistant. O-ring seals are
incorporated to ensure minimal ingress of water and dust. (Cable access is via knockouts
in
the base.) Access to the electronics is via screws hidden behind clip-in panels on the front
cover.
The unit may
be either wall, pole or gantry mounted. It must be positioned so that it ‘looks into’
the vehicle.
