Related Manuals
For a product description and specifications and for operating instructions. refer to
the OuedHoppef' Model 9000 System Description (Larus Practice 80-100-281).
For information and instructions regarding pro-installation requirements, refer to the
OuedHoppef' Model 9000 Site Planning and Preparation manual (Larus Practice
80-601-281).
A DANGER
SHOCK HAZARD:
The Model 9000 uses a —24I—48 Vdc facility battery as its primary voltage
sourcei Though not normally considered high voltage. the facility battery has
more than the minimum power necessary to be a potentially fatal shock hazard.
Be very careful when working around or connecting circuits energized by the
facility battery.
General Safety Precautions
The following safety precautions apply to anyone working on or around the
Model 9000 equipment. They are presented here for general review and are
repeated throughout the manual before any procedural steps to which they apply
1 Grounding
Safety of personnel is the main reason for grounding electronic equipment. The
National Electrical Code and local and regional codes require the grounding of
electronic equipment. The system uses a dedicated ground wire. (A ground muat
be connected if the tower or mounting pole does not meet the resistance
requirement below.) Follow these guidelines in providing an earth ground for the
Model 9000:
a The ground conductor must be connected to an earth ground or the main ground
at the branch circuit power panel.
The ground wire must be insulated and at least the same gauge as the power
wires to the Model 9000._
An electrical conduit must NEVER be used for a ground.
0 A neutral of an electrical circuit must NOT be used for a ground; it may cause
noise problems.
0 The safety ground impedance from the Model 9000 back to the main service
entrance must be less than 1 ohm.
2. Lightning Protection
The Model 9000 has internal circuits which provide secondary protection for the El
interface connections from the effects of lightning. However, to ensure the unit is
protected, the Model 9000 must have primary protection connected to earth
ground.
Primary protection may be required in areas of high lightning activity and where the
length of the indoor to outdoor cable exceeds 100 feet. Primary three element gas
tube protectors used for El circuits are recommended. Refer to subsection 2.44.
3. Electrostatic Discharge Considerations
The Model 9000 assembly must be properly grounded. Whan grounded,
electrostatic discharge lESDl will not effect the operation of either unit. Uaa
common, prudent antistatic precautions when working on or around the equipment.
4. Climbing Aloft on Tower or Other High Structure
A DANGER:
Wear approved and inspected safety equipment when climbing aloft on any
antenna tower or other antenna-mounting location where there is a risk of falling.
ALWAYS work with a line tender on the ground who can summon aid if you are
Injured.

2.1 Overview
2.101
Use the procedures in this section for installing a Model 9000 radio system.
Refer to Section 5, Installation Checklists, for planning information you will
need to have in hand.
@ NOTE:
Bsfore proceeding with equipment installation, the installation site must
be prepared according to the Instructions in the Model 9000 Site
Planning and Preparation manual (Law: Practice 80-601-281).
(E) NOTE:
For the Model 9000 to operate properly. the path between the near and
far ends must be greater than 1/2 mile. If your path length ls less than
this distance. contact Larus,
2.2 Tools Required
2.201
2.202
Installing the Model 9000 requires only common hand tools. In addition to
a standard set of flat blade and cross-tip ("Philips‘l screwdrivers, you will
need these tools:
7/16 inch socket/nut driver ' 9/16 inch open-end wrench
7/16 open-end wrench - 3/4 inch socket
0 9/16 inch deep socket 0 3/4 inch open—end wrench
You will also need an ohmmeter to check that the shelves and rack are
properly grounded and a voltmeter to check the facility battery
l-24l—48 Vdc).

2.3 Installing Equipment
2.301
2.302
The Model 9000 assembly is five rack units (5RU) high and installs in a
standard 19-inch or 23-inch equipment shelf (refer to Figures 2-1 and 2-2).
A typical mounting arrangement for the equipment is shown in Figure 2-3.
The following tasks must be performed to complete a 9000 installation:
0 Connect plant battery and ground to the controller shelf. Ensure that
the plant battery is not turned on until the complete system is cabled.
- Connect shelf alarm outputs to facility alarm equipment.
0 Connect the E1/051 lines to the Control Module.
- Connect a VT-100 (or compatible) terminal or terminal emulator to the
controller for local maintenance access to the equipment.
0 Ground the control and RF modules as described in subsection 2.44.
The cabinets must be connected to earth ground.
0 Interconnect the two units by running the furnished coaxial cable from
J2 on the controller to INTERFACE IF on the RF module.
0 With reference to Figure 2-4, mount the antenna on a mast or tower.
Ensure that the antenna mount is rigid and will not move in the wind.
Make certain that the antenna and supports will withstand the wind
loading commonly encountered at the location. Contact the antenna
manufacturer to determine the maximum wind loading for the antenna
installed.
A DANGER:
Wear approved and inspected safety equipment when climbing aloft on
any antenna tower or other antenno~mouming location where there is a
tiek of failing‘
ALWAYS work with a line tender on the ground who can summon aid
if you are injured.
