Operational Safety Notices
Installer
Installers must be suitably trained and qualified for electrical work, according to the laws and local codes
for the locality and country.
This unit must only be installed by personnel that have been trained by Telensa or their representatives to
carry out this work.
Power Supply Connection
The supply voltage for the base station is hazardous and all necessary precautions must be taken to
ensure the safety of the installer, maintenance staff and any person that may come into contact with the
unit or its wiring.
A method of isolating the power supply connection must be included in the supply circuit.
Supply connections must be made water and weatherproof against the weather conditions encountered at
the installation location.
This product must be grounded.
Battery Pack
The base station uses a NiMh battery pack to maintain operation during short term power loss.
Only replace this pack with the same Telensa type replacement battery pack.
Radio Transmitter - CAUTION
The base station unit described in this guide emits radio frequency energy through its antenna. Although
the power level is low, concentrated energy from a directional antenna may pose a health hazard. Only
outdoor antennas certified with this transmitter should be used and must be installed to provide a
separation distance of at least 23cm (10 inches) from all persons who could be nearby when the base
station is operating.

1 Equipment Overview
The BS4 base station has two weatherproof compartments for the functional components.
The smaller left hand compartment contains the power connection, hazardous voltages and the unit
power supply. This compartment should not be opened. Only a trained electrician should open this
compartment.
The right hand compartment contains safe voltages at 12V DC maximum. This compartment contains the
electronics, the cellular SIM cards and the backup battery.
2 Accessories required

Antenna, 8dBi gain type:
For US / N.America: Shakespeare SKP-794-8-915
For EU / UK: Shakespeare SKP-794-8-868
Do not use any other antenna type!


Mounting hardware:
For wooden pole – Long bolts , nuts x 2
For metal / concrete pole - Mounting straps to suit pole diameter, stainless steel x 2
Tools as required
3 Installation Procedure
The product is installed in two stages. First fit the rear mounting plate to the pole or lighting column.
Once the mounting plate is secured, the base station case is then secured to the mounting plate. Finally,
the outer plastic protective cover is fitted and clipped in place over the case.
3.1
Mounting location

3.2
The base station must be mounted so that its light sensor is not illuminated by the area lighting or
other light source.
Preparation

Remove the white outer cover of the base station.

Loosen the hex head M8 bolt located between the two covers of the base station. Lift it up.

Slide the base station case up to release it from the keyhole slots on the back plate. Remove the
case from the mounting plate.

Inspect the metal case for exterior damage

Release the right hand door of the case by unscrewing all six fixing screws. Unscrew so that the
screws are threaded into the cover plate, this will make opening the cover easier.

Open the cover and plug the back-up battery connector into its white PCB mounted connector at
the bottom right of the main PCB.

Fit the cellular SIM cards to the backhaul PCB at the top right if not already installed

Close the cover and tighten the six cover bolts to prevent moisture ingress

3.3
Mounting plate
The base station mounting plate must be fixed to the top of the mounting pole. There are two types of
mounting plate, one for strap fixing, and the other with a U channel on the rear for direct pole mount
using two bolts.


3.4
Note the up arrow on the mounting plate and fix the plate this way up
Fix the mounting plate to the pole or lighting column in the required position.
Base station case assembly

Attach the main antenna using the strap and two M5 Nyloc fixing nuts on the rear of the unit.

Connect the antenna lead to the LH large antenna socket at the bottom of the case and tighten.

Now that the case assembly is prepared, place it against the mounting plate, locate the two large
screw heads on the rear of the unit into the keyhole slots in the mounting plate and drop the
heads down into the keyhole slots to hang the case in place. Make sure both fixing heads are
engaged in the slots.

Secure the case to the mounting plate by using the long M8 securing bolt on the front plate.
Tighten.
3.5
Power connection
A means of safely disconnecting the base station from power MUST be included in the supply
connection.

If required, trim the mains power lead to the desired length for the installation, strip back and
prepare the wire ends

Isolate and test the source power supply and connect the base station power cable to the supply
via a connector or junction box suitable for the installation environment.
NOTE: This product must be grounded for safe operation.
3.6
Other connections

3.7
If required, terminate the local internet connection using the recommended weatherproof RJ45
connector and plug into the network connector at the bottom of the unit.
Installation completion

Fit the white protective cover over the two pegs at the top of the unit. Lock in place using the
clip at the front of the unit.

Switch on the main supply power

Check the function of the unit by logging in to the PLANet system as per the Telensa system
training.

4 Servicing
4.1
Battery pack replacement
The base station uses a 9.6V NiMh battery pack to maintain operation during short term power loss.
CAUTION: Only replace the battery pack with the same Telensa type BS4 replacement battery pack.
When the battery pack has been identified for replacement;

Remove the base station outer cover and open the right hand compartment of the case

Unplug the battery pack from its socket on the PCB

Remove the battery pack by cutting the three nylon cable ties holding it in place

If the battery pack is leaking electrolyte then use protective gloves for handling and wash hands
immediately afterwards

Replace the battery pack with the new pack.

Secure the pack in place using the three supplied cable ties, tighten gently

Plug in the new battery pack

Replace the case cover and tighten the retaining screws

Replace the outer cover and clip in place
Safely dispose of old battery packs following local environmental guidance and legislative
requirements.

Antenna
This radio transmitter type BS4 has been approved by ISED to operate with the antenna types listed
below with the maximum permissible gain indicated. Antenna types not included in this list, having a
gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for that type, are strictly prohibited for use with this
device.
Shakespeare SKP-794-8-915
+8dBi
Under ISED regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and
maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by ISED. To reduce potential radio interference to
other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated
power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication!
Cet émetteur radio type BS4 a été approuvé par l'ISED pour fonctionner avec les types d'antennes
indiqués ci-dessous avec le gain maximal autorisé indiqué. Les types d'antennes non inclus dans cette
liste, ayant un gain supérieur au gain maximal indiqué pour ce type, sont strictement interdits pour une
utilisation avec cet appareil.
Shakespeare SKP-794-8-915
+8dBi
En vertu des règlements ISED, cet émetteur radio ne peut fonctionner qu'avec une antenne d'un type et
un gain maximal (ou moindre) approuvé pour l'émetteur par ISED. Afin de réduire les interférences radio
potentielles pour les autres utilisateurs, le type d'antenne et son gain doivent être choisis de telle sorte que
la puissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (e.i.r.p.) ne soit pas supérieure à celle nécessaire pour une
communication réussie!
