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

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.

(Recommended minimum
spacing between antenna
hubs is 7.5 cm)

3.4.4. 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”).

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.

CONFIGURATION
With equipment installed, final configuration must meet the minimum separation distance in
Table 5 and Section 4.2.
