7Paging System InstallationYour WaveWare Paging System includes an encoder/transmitter unit, a “Rubber Duck” Antenna, a serial interfacecable, and an AC/DC power adapter. Refer to the diagram on the following page. To install the paging system,perform the following steps:1. Attach the “Rubber Duck” Antenna to the Transmitter Unit. In normal paging operations, the pagingtransmitter antenna should be oriented in a vertical position to maximize the paging range.Note: Do not attempt to operate the paging system without the antenna connected to the paging transmitter, asdamage to the paging transmitter may occur.2. Mount the Transmitter Unit as required to a wall surface, using the mounting slots. You need to removethe front cover to install the anchor screw..3. Plug the AC/DC power adapter into the power connector, and connect the DB9 serial cable between thepaging system and the serial port connector on the back of a Host Device, such as a PC or an alphanumericpaging terminal. If the serial port has a DB25 connector, you must provide a DB25 to DB9 adapter, whichis available from computer supply companies. Tighten connector screws. Please note that you may requirea null modem adapter and/or other wiring modifications to properly connect to host systems.4. Plug the AC/DC Power Adapter into a 110 VAC power outlet. The red colored PWR/BAT LED indicatoron the Transmitter Unit should be illuminated when power is properly applied.5. Program the pager database, if required, using WaveWare Paging Encoder Setup software, which isavailable from the WaveWare web site or from the WaveWare Product Support CD6. If you are using a PC as a Host Device, load paging control software, such as WaveWare software, on thePC and configure it to operate with your WaveWare Paging System. Make sure the proper serial portsettings are defined. The green colored TX LED indicator on the Transmitter Unit should illuminateduring a paging transmission. If the Carrier Detect function is enabled, you may see the green colored CDLED indicator temporarily illuminate prior to some paging transmissions, if a carrier signal is detectedfrom a nearby transmitter at the same frequency as your WaveWare Paging System.
