SYSTEM OVERVIEW Gateway is an embedded computer that provides interfacing capability among a variety of wired and wireless networks. It implements WAN designs, with the additions of Bluetooth, WIFI, 433MHz radio, and Satcom interfaces. 2. PURPOSE This Installation Manual is intended to inform installers and users of the proper placement, configuration and distances between system components. 3. GENERAL INFORMATION 3.1. SPECIAL TOOLS REQUIRED In addition to SAE standard and/or metric wrenches, sockets, and screw drivers, the following tool are required: 1) Torque Wrench (in-lbs) 2) Wrench set Document Number: 600840-000038 Page 5 of 9 Installation Manual Rev: 1.2 Last Revised: 3/22/16 3.2. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS OVERVIEW System installation is accomplished in the following steps: 1) Installation of Gateway into the tractor cab headliner a. Torque the antenna terminations to Gateway RF SMA connectors with a torque spec of 7-10 in-lbs +/- 0.5 in-lbs. Mount the Gateway enclosure to the cab with ¼” or 6-mm fasteners and a torque of 30 in-lbs. 2) Installation of Antennas a. Find a location on the equipment such that the following distances are the minimum spacing between system components. Table 1 System Component Minimum Spacing Antenna Hub 1 (Recommended minimum spacing between antenna hubs is 7.5 cm) Operator Gateway 40 cm (USA) 20 cm 60 cm (Canada) Antenna Hub 2 40 cm (USA) 20 cm 60 cm (Canada) Gateway 20 cm N/A b. Ensure the antennas have a ground place of 300 x 300 mm around them. c. Torque the antenna mounting nut (M14x1) to 30 +/- 0.5 in-lbs. 3.3.

Conditions for FCC 15.231 (a-d) operation IMPORTANT NOTICE!!!! This device can be configured to transmit on the 433 MHz frequency following the requirements of 47 CFR 15.231. Failure to adhere to this requirement void’s the authority to operate the equipment! The developer configuring Gateway’s control signal for the user application is responsible for ensuring compliance to FCC 15.231(a-d). In the event where the specific application in which the installed Gateway will be used, will not ensure that a control signal will always be sent as the purpose of the transmission, then the installer must set the Gateway to only operate in 15.231(e) mode (i.e., “periodic operation”). Document Number: 600840-000038 Page 7 of 9 Installation Manual Rev: 1.2 Last Revised: 3/22/16 To set the device to transmit in FCC Part 15.231(e) mode, use the API command string as indicated below in quotes (“ ”). “iLPD433.send(“MyMessage”,9, FCC_PERIODIC_15_231_E,suggestedRetryIntervalMS,100,actualSentPowerDBM);” Otherwise in the above command, replace the argument “FCC_PERIODIC_15_231_E” with “FCC_APERIODIC_15_231_AD” for 15.231(a-d) mode with the appropriate control message setup. 4. CONFIGURATION With equipment installed, final configuration must meet the minimum separation distance in Table 5 and Section 4.2. 4.1.
