All information contained in this document is property of IDS. All rights reserved IMPORTANT NOTE FOR THE US CUSTOMERS FCC ID: UFW-HR2000NA This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules: Operation is subject to the following conditions: 1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and 2. This device must accept any interference received, Including interference that may cause undesired operation Warning: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. Operation of this device is restricted to law enforcement, fire and rescue officials, scientific research institutes, commercial mining companies, and construction companies. Operation by any other party is a violation of 47 U.S.C. § 301 and could subject the operator to serious legal penalties. Coordination Requirements. (a) UWB imaging systems require coordination through the FCC before the equipment may be used. The operator shall comply with any constraints on equipment usage resulting from this coordination. (b) The users of UWB imaging devices shall supply detailed operational areas to the FCC Office of Engineering and Technology who shall coordinate this information with the Federal Government through the National Telecommunications and Information Administration. The information provided by the UWB operator shall include the name, address and other pertinent contact information of the user, the desired geographical area of operation, and the FCC ID number and other nomenclature of the UWB device. This material shall be submitted to the following address: Frequency Coordination Branch., OET Federal Communications Commission 445 12th Street, SW Washington, D.C. 20554 ATTN: UWB Coordination (d) Users of authorized, coordinated UWB systems may transfer them to other qualified users and to different locations upon coordination of change of ownership or location to the FCC and coordination with existing authorized operations. (e) The NTIA/FCC coordination report shall include any needed constraints that apply to day-to-day operations. Such constraints could specify prohibited areas of operations or areas located near authorized radio stations for which additional coordination is required before operation of the UWB equipment. If additional local coordination is required, a local coordination contact will be provided. (f) The coordination of routine UWB operations shall not take longer than 15 business days from the receipt of the coordination request by NTIA. Special temporary operations may be handled with an expedited turn-around time when circumstances warrant. The operation of UWB systems in emergency situations involving the safety of life or property may occur without coordination provided a notification procedure, similar to that contained in CFR47 Section 2.405(a)-(e), is followed by the UWB equipment user. Notice: Use of this device as a wall imaging system is prohibited by FCC regulations.

INTRODUCTION 1.1 Purpose This manual explains the procedure of assembling the Hi-Pave GPR system in all its parts. Ids Hi-Pave system uses HR1000 and/or the HR2000 antennas; the model HR2000NA only is allowed to operate in the US and Canadian markets. 1.2 Application Field This system is dedicated for pavement applications on the asphalt and concrete roads. The most common application is detecting the thickness of asphalt layers, within the first meter of depth. 1.3 Reference The applicable versions of the following documents are the ones officially released at the time of the emission of this present document. 1.3.1 Applicable documents [AD1] - MN_2008_031_11 – K2 Fast Wave User Manual 1.4 Composition of the Hi-pave GPR system Here below you find the parts of the Hi-pave system: Fig. 1-1– Composition of the Hi-Pave system ENCODER VERTICAL FRAME SLIDING CART ELASTIC BELT HORN ANTENNA FIBERGLASS HORIZONTAL FRAME HOOK SCREW

Of course it’s necessary to get a vehicle provided with a hook on the back side and possibly a carrier or similar on the roof/back of the vehicle itself. Please follow the steps in order one by one. 1. Take the metal key (provided with the system) and unscrew the screw on the vertical frame (see Errore. L'origine riferimento non è stata trovata.), until the frame fits on to the hook of the vehicle. Then screw it again strongly keeping the frame vertical as much as possible (Fig. 2-1). Fig. 2-1 – Screw on the vertical frame 2. Make slide the horizontal frame (B) on the vertical frame (A), and fix B to A applying 4 screws M8x20, attaching them to the 4 brackets and verify that the B is horizontal and parallel as much as possible to the ground surface (see Fig. 2-2 and Fig. 2-3).
