A bracket that allows the chassis to pivot is secured to the chassis at the left rear corner. This bracket is secured to the top and bottom right rear corner of the chassis with two capscrews. The RU doors are factory configured to order, fully tested assembled and shipped as a single unit ready for deployment. Three solar shields are included and installed over each door. The RU houses the electronic assemblies, controls RF emissions, seals out dirt and moisture, and provides passive cooling. The antenna cable connectors, fiber connectors, AC power connector, and the unit status indicator are located on the bottom of the unit.1.3 MountingThe FlexWave URH RU should be mounted on a utility pole, mast, or on a flat surface. A mounting kit is available for each unit. Installation consists of securing the bracket to the mounting surface and then hanging the unit from the bracket. The bracket may be attached to a variety of surfaces such as wood, concrete, or steel. The FlexWave URH RU should be mounted in a restricted access location only. 1.4 Fault Detection and Alarm ReportingThe FlexWave URH RU detects and reports fault and alarm information. RU has a single red STATUS LED on the bottom. At startup, LED is turned “ON” prior to being controlled by the SeRF processor. After startup, unique patterns are displayed to show the current status. Table 1defines the patterns displayed for the different conditions. Different sets of patterns may be defined based upon a pattern “code”. In this release (Software Version 1.1), the “code” can not be provisioned and is assumed to be zero. When more than 1 condition exists, the pattern for the condition with the higher priority is displayed. The highest priority is a “0”, with higher numeric values having a lower priority. Fault and alarm information is also available using the FlexWave URH GUI.
