All rights reserved. R01.b 5. Point-to-Multipoint Backhaul Install and Troubleshoot 5.4.1 Using one Recorder Radio This section describes how the steps to configure one recorder radio, and multiple line station radios. To install and troubleshoot the radios: Using the plan created in “Create Plan and Map” on page 109, install all of the radios, masts, and LIUs. Point radio pairs directly at each other where possible (see “Maintain Line-of-Sight” on page 110). Some inaccuracy is tolerable; however, align the radios as close as possible using binoculars or compass bearing. If your configuration includes a redundant recorder radio, do not supply power to it yet (RECORDER_B). From the recording truck, open the Ubiquiti Discovery Tool. Verify that all of the radios are listed, and verify that each of the radios has a valid IP Address. Note the following: If a line station radio has a valid IP address that means the DHCP is active, DHCP is being accepted by the radios, and DHCP is being passed from the recorder radio. ► DHCP server-assigned IP addresses are 10.xxx.xxx.xxx ► Non-DHCP server-assigned IP addresses are 192.168.1.xxx If the recorder radio is the only radio listed, the problem is probably at the recorder radio. Perform the following steps: ra If a radio is listed, that means there is an Ethernet path to the radio. ● ● Verify that the recorder radio is connected to the antenna. Verify that the antenna mast is elevated to the correct height Verify that the recorder radio has DHCP by validating the IP address displayed in the Ubiquiti Discovery tool. It should not be 192.168.1.20 (factory default). If it is 192.168.1.20, contact Wireless Seismic for DHCP support. Reload the configuration file on the recorder radio. If the recorder radio is still the only radio listed, proceed to the line station radios. If a line station radio is not listed, send a troubleshooter to the radio that is not listed and perform the following steps: Verify that the line station radio is securely connected to the LIU with a known-good cable. Verify that the LIU has active LED lights (the battery has power). Verify that the LIU has a flashing LNK LED. Note the following: ► A flashing LNK LED confirms that the LIU can communicate over the network and obtain an IP address through DHCP. ► This step helps identify the exact location in the network where communications are broken by proving the network is active between the two radios on a specific pole. ► If the LNK LED is not flashing, replace the Ethernet cable. ► If the LNK LED is still not flashing, replace the battery. ► If the LNK LED is still not flashing, reload the radio configuration file. ► If the LNK LED is still not flashing, replace the LIU. Verify that a known-good Ethernet cable is securely attached to the radio. Connect a laptop to the LIU. IMPORTANT: The Ethernet ports on the LIU are PoE enabled. When connecting a laptop computer to the LIU, use a non-powered cable (60-0039) to protect the computer’s Ethernet port. Do not use a powered Ethernet cable (60-0054). See “Ethernet Cable Connections Comparison” on page 116 for more information. R01.b RT System 2 v2.3.0 Deployment Guide © 2010-2013 Wireless Seismic, Inc. All rights reserved. 115 5. Point-to-Multipoint Backhaul Install and Troubleshoot Open the discovery tool and verify that the radio is listed. If the radio is not listed, perform the following steps. 1) Verify that the radio has power by visually inspecting the LEDs. 2) If the radio has power but is not visible to the laptop, replace the radio. 3) If the radio does not have power, replace the cable and/or the radio. Verify that the line station radio is pointed in the direction of the recorder radio and has reasonable line-of-sight (see “Maintain Line-of-Sight” on page 110). If the line station radio still cannot be seen, replace the radio. The following table compares the powered Ethernet cable and the non-powered Ethernet cable: Table 5–4 Ethernet Cable Connections Comparison 60-0054 LIU to Radio PoE Signal Name RJ-45 Connector RJ-45 Connector 11-Pin Connector TX+ TX- RX+ POSITIVE POSITIVE RX- RETURN RETURN ra 14-Pin Connector 60-0039 LIU to Computer NC NC NC NC — SHIELD DRAIN — — — — NC R* — — — NC M* — *Jumper pins R and M together. 5.4.2 Using a Redundant Recorder Radio This section describes the additional steps required to configure a redundant recorder radio. To install and troubleshoot the redundant recorder radio: 116 Correctly configure the backhaul for RECORDER_A as detailed in “Using one Recorder Radio” on page 115. Supply power to the RECORDER_B radio. RT System 2 v2.3.0 Deployment Guide © 2010-2013 Wireless Seismic, Inc. All rights reserved. R01.b 5. Point-to-Multipoint Backhaul Final Communication Test Wait 2 minutes to confirm that RECORDER_B completes its boot cycle. Disconnect RECORDER_A. Verify that all line station radios are listed in the Discovery window through RECORDER_B within 2 minutes. The typical switch over takes 30 seconds but it can take longer. Supply power to RECORDER_A and disconnect power from RECORDER_B. Verify that all line station radios are listed in the Discovery window through RECORDER_A. Supply power to RECORDER_B. Verify that all line station radios are listed in the Discovery window. 10 Verify that both recorder radios are listed in the Discovery window. 5.4.3 Using a Custom Configuration Custom configurations may have a number of recorder radios and line station radios. Correctly configure the backhaul for one of the recorders, for example, RECORDER_A, as detailed in “Using one Recorder Radio” on page 115. NOTE ra Then, configure the backhaul for each additional recorder, for example, RECORDER_B, until the backhaul configuration is complete. Remove power from competing recorder radios during the configuration process. During production is the only time more than one recorder radio should have power applied. 5.5 Final Communication Test This section describes how to run the final speed test to verify good communication throughout the backhaul. The final communication test should be run from each recorder radio that will be communicating to line radios during production.

Observe the following storage precautions: Remove the batteries from the WRU for storage R01.b The recommended storage temperature for Lithium ion batteries is as follows: ● ● From -20°C to +45°C for a maximum period of one month ● Storing at cooler temperatures slows down self discharge and capacity loss over time. Store the batteries at 25°C or less if possible From -20°C to +35°C for a maximum of 6 months, after which time the battery packs will need to be recharged to above 50% capacity The recommended storage charge levels are as follows: ● Charge (or discharge) batteries to a 30% to 50% charge level before placing into storage. Higher or lower charge levels can reduce the battery life. ● ● Never store the battery completely depleted of charge unless for disposal. Periodic charging is necessary to maintain 30% to 50% charge when stored for a long period of time Store batteries in a well ventilated area Do not leave batteries unused for extended periods of time, either in the product or in storage. When a battery has been unused for 6 months, check the charge status and charge or dispose of the battery as appropriate. RT System 2 v2.3.0 Deployment Guide © 2010-2013 Wireless Seismic, Inc.

A sighting compass has the same features as a baseplate compass, but adds a vertical mirror that allows you to view the compass dial and the landmark at the same time. Figure F–1 Sighting Compass (70-0067) For a in-depth descriptions of using a compass with a map and setting the declination on a compass see the following links: http://www.compassdude.com/default.shtml http://www.compassdude.com/compass-declination.shtml http://www.rei.com/learn/expert-advice/navigation-basics.html http://www.thecompassstore.com/howtouseyour.html A compass needle points to the magnetic north pole which is not the same as true or geographic north. The difference between magnetic and true north is called magnetic declination. The declination value depends on your actual location on the Earth. Over time, as the Earth’s magnetic field shifts, the declination values also shift. Maps are drawn with true north at the top edge. When using a compass to navigate or locate objects, you must adjust the readings to account for the angular difference between true north ( ★ ) and magnetic north (MN). The declination value is marked on topographical maps as shown in the following figure: RT System 2 v2.3.0 182 © 2010-2013 Wireless Seismic, Inc. All rights reserved. Deployment Guide R01.b ra F. Using a Compass Figure F–2 Declination Indication on Map However, because of the dynamic nature of the Earth’s magnetic field, old maps are inaccurate. To obtain the most recent declination values, enter your map location at the following link: http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/geomag-web/#declination CAUTION Placing magnetic objects near a compass can cause an incorrect reading (deviation). Examples include: • Objects that contain steel and iron such as pocket knives, belt buckles, vehicles, railroad tracks, and ore deposits in the Earth • Objects that use magnets such as stereo speakers • Electrical current in cables and overhead lines To locate an object using a map and a compass: R01.b Place the long edge of the compass baseplate on the map, connecting the desired start and end points. For example, the start point could be where you are standing [A], and the end point [B] is where you want to locate the backhaul mast. The Direction of Travel arrow should point towards the end point (mast location). While holding the compass on the map, turn the Degree Dial until the Meridian / Orienting Lines are parallel with the Meridian lines on the map. This is the same as turning the Degree Dial until the Orienting Arrow points to north on the map. RT System 2 v2.3.0 Deployment Guide © 2010-2013 Wireless Seismic, Inc. All rights reserved. 183 ra F. Using a Compass Figure F–3 Compass and Map Adjust for declination. ● If you have an adjustable compass – Move the Orienting Arrow to the right or left by the declination number. When you align the magnetic needle with the Orienting Arrow, the declination is accounted for. ● If you do not have an adjustable compass – Mark the declination on your compass with a piece of tape. Align the magnetic needle with the tape mark. ● Adjust the Orienting Arrow to the left or right. For example: ► For a declination of 0, no adjustment is necessary. ► For a declination of 9 (9 degrees East), move the Orienting Arrow (or place a tape mark) to the right 9 degrees. ► For a declination of -9 (9 degrees West), move the Orienting Arrow (or place a tape mark) to the left 9 degrees. 184 RT System 2 v2.3.0 Deployment Guide © 2010-2013 Wireless Seismic, Inc.

Using a Compass Hold the base of the compass in the palm of your hand. Keep the compass level. Turn your entire body and the compass until the red end of the Magnetic Needle is aligned with the red end (north end) of Orienting Arrow.

Français Batteries I.1.1.4 Entreposage Un entreposage et un entretien adéquats des batteries au lithium-ion est indispensable pour optimiser leur durée de vie utile et éviter une défaillance catastrophique. Respecter les précautions suivantes en matière d'entreposage : Température d'entreposage recommandée des batteries au lithium-ion : ● ● De -20°C à +45°C durant une période maximum d'un mois ● L'entreposage à basses températures ralentit la décharge naturelle et la perte de capacité au fil du temps. Entreposer les batteries à 25°C ou moins si possible De -20°C à +35°C durant 6 mois maximum ; passé ce délai, les blocs-batteries doivent être rechargés à plus de 50 % de leur capacité Niveaux de charge d'entreposage recommandés : ● Charger (ou décharger) les batteries à un niveau de charge de 30 % à 50 % avant de les entreposer. Des niveaux de charge inférieurs ou supérieurs peuvent réduire la durée de vie des batteries. ● Ne jamais entreposer des batteries entièrement déchargées, sauf en cas d'élimination. ● Un chargement périodique est nécessaire pour maintenir une charge de 30 % à 50 % en cas d'entreposage de longue durée Retirer les batteries de l'unité distante sans fil avant l'entreposage ra Entreposer les batteries dans un endroit bien aéré Ne pas laisser les batteries inutilisées pendant de longues durées, qu'elles soient dans le produit ou placées en entreposage. Si une batterie n'a pas été utilisée pendant 6 mois, vérifier l'état de charge et charger ou éliminer la batterie, le cas échéant. Vérifier régulièrement l'état de charge de la batterie Envisager le remplacement de la batterie par une nouvelle en cas de constat d'une des conditions suivantes : ● L'autonomie de la batterie descend en dessous d'environ 80 % de son autonomie initiale ● Le temps de charge de la batterie augmente sensiblement I.1.2 Chargement des batteries au lithium-ion Cette section décrit les précautions de chargement et présente le chargeur de batterie. I.1.2.1 Précautions de chargement Respecter les précautions de chargement suivantes : 196 Avant de la charger, inspecter la batterie pour détecter les signes éventuels de dommages sur le boîtier ou les connecteurs susceptibles de créer un court-circuit. La batterie peut être chargée dans la plage de température de 0°C à +45°C. En cas de chargement de la batterie en dehors de cette plage, la batterie peut devenir très chaude ou se rompre. Être absolument sûr de l'utilisation d'une source de 5 V lors du chargement de la batterie. Prendre soin de charger les batteries sur une surface ininflammable. NE JAMAIS laisser une batterie au lithium-ion sans surveillance lorsqu'elle est en train de charger. Ne pas charger les batteries à proximité d'objets ou de liquides inflammables.
