3. Installation instruction Place 2WREP in a plastic box and connect the connectors on the rear panel to the power supply, battery charging and I/O. (see Figure3) Connect antenna to the antenna's connector. (see Figure2) The 2WREP can be installed on both walls and light poles. Attach the relevant hanging kit (see Figure 4, Figure 5) to the back of the 2WREP according to required hanging destination. Figure 4 – Light pole hanging kit Arad Technologies Ltd.
Figure 5 – Wall hanging kit Open the 2WREP box by pushing the locking tab and make sure that Antenna connected properly. Pay attention!! Do not open the repeater with strength, push the locking tabs and pull the hinges. Figure 6 Arad Technologies Ltd. Yokneam Elite 20692, Israel Tel: (972) 4 9935222, Fax: (972) 4 9935227 www.aradtec.
Connect the 2WREP to power source (110VAC) and change the transceiver switch into “ON” state, see Figure 7. Figure 7 Working 2WREP indicates with green and orange blinking LED’s. Close the 2WREP box it is now ready to collect water meters. 4. Antenna requirements.
