FCC Information
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the ArKion Systems could void the
user's authority to operate the equipment.
IMPORTANT NOTE: To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, the
antenna used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at
least 20 cm from all persons and must not be co‐located or operating in conjunction with
any other antenna or transmitter.
“NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
‐‐ Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
‐‐ Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
‐‐ Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
‐‐ Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
1) Intended Use:
The CCOM unit is intended for indoor & outdoor use as an unattended data collector for
automatic meter metering & control applications. The unit is attached (hard wired) to an
external power source, 10‐ 30 VDC, 15W for the CCOM_DC & 100‐240 VAC
, 50/ 60 HZ,
15W for a CCOM AC. The external power hookup is to meet appropriate local & national
electrical codes & be performed by an appropriately licensed professional.

AC Model (Input Rated 100‐240VAC, 15W, 50/60 Hz, ‐30C‐+70C)

DC Model (Requires an external DC source of 10‐30VDC, 15W)
2) Environmental Cautions:
The connection to an external power source should only be performed by the appropriate
professional, properly licensed within the local jurisdiction. Outdoors CCOM installation
should only be attempted when weather conditions permit safely accomplishing this task.
The lead‐acid batteries utilized within this product should be disposed of in the proper
manner. Contact Manufacturer for disposal details.
3) CCOM Installation & Operation:
The CCOM unit is a 7.3” x 10.4” x 3.7” NEMA 4 plastic box which contains weighs between
2.5 & 7.5 lbs (depending upon options). It dissipates between 4 watts (standby) & 15 watts
(worst case scenario). Typically, the CCOM is fastened to a telephone pole with two screws
and then input power is attached & applied.
A typical CCOM unit, having both GPRS (top) & RFDC (bottom) antennas attached is shown
below in Figure 1.
Figure 1: CCOM AC PWR with RFDC & GPRS options.
The CCOM power input can be either 1030 VDC (for the CCOM_DC DC version) and
100240 VAC 50/60 HZ (for the CCOM_AC AC version). The external appearance will be
identical except that the DC version will have a yellow power cord & the AC version has a
black power cord. Both versions also have unique external stickers identifying the type &
configuration of CCOM.
The bottom of the CCOM has a power cord attached in the middle. To the right of that is an
air vent and a green LED to indicate that the unit is powered up. On the right side are two
RF antennas. The top antenna (in this example) is for the GPRS & the bottom is for the
RFDC. A pre‐drilled mounting plate is attached to both the top & bottom of the CCOM.
There are no other (operator/installer) accessible controls or displays.
Any use of the CCOM product in other than the intended manner specified by the
manufacturer may impair the protection provided by the equipment.
Installation is achieved as follows:
Installation Instructions:
WARNING! Because the installation is typically to a telephone pole, or a similar high object,
and involves connecting the power cord to live power lines, only personnel trained &
licensed properly for the local jurisdiction should perform this installation.
A. Pick a safe pole location where the power cord can reach the input power
source. Install the CCOM to the telephone (or other wooden) pole by utilizing the
screws & the pre‐drilled mounting plates located at the top & bottom of the
CCOM box. Keep the box vertical/plumb as much as possible.
B. Connect the color coded wires to the power source. This operation should be
performed by a properly licensed professional.
C. Color Code: For the CCOM_AC (has a black jacketed power cord), the black wire
is the power input (nominally 110VAC) & the white wire is return. For the
CCOM_DC (has a yellow jacketed power cord), the white wire is the power input
(10‐30VDC) & the black wire is return.
D. After connecting input power, verify that the green LED on the bottom of the
CCOM is lit.
E. This completes the physical installation. From this time forward, additional steps
to control the CCOM are all done remotely via the GPRS RF link.
4) Maintenance:
There are no user serviceable items within a CCOM. No cleaning is required. The fuses &
batteries should be replaced by properly trained & licensed personnel only. These
replacements should only be performed after the unit has been removed from the input
power source by personnel trained & licensed properly for the local jurisdiction. Used fuses
& batteries should be disposed of properly. For all other maintenance issues consult
manufacturer.

The CCOM battery packs are available from the manufacturer. These
replacements should only be performed after the unit has been removed from
the input power source by personnel trained & licensed properly for the local
jurisdiction, or by the manufacturer.

The CCOM fuses are commercially available. These replacements should only be
performed after the unit has been removed from the input power source by
personnel trained & licensed properly for the local jurisdiction, or by the
manufacturer. The fuse ratings & Characteristics for a CCOM_AC are listed
below:
o The Battery Line Fuse is a 5A slow blow 250V
01218005.HXP, Littelfuse
o The CCOM_AC PWB fuse (F3) is a 2A fast blow 250V
37312000410, Wickman (Littelfuse)

The fuse ratings & Characteristics for a CCOM_DC are listed below:
o The CCOM_DC PWB fuse (F1) is a 2A fast blow 250V
37312000410, Wickman (Littelfuse)
