Installation steps
This guide provides installation drawings and instructions
appropriate for most applications. For more information, refer to
the user manual.
1. Connect the GND terminal on the back of the 945U-E to
earth/ground.
2. Install the antenna.
3. Connect the 945U-E to a DC power supply and power on.
4. Connect the
945U-E
to your computer via Ethernet and
configure the
945U-E
. Refer to the user manual for
configuration details.
Antenna installation
When selecting an antenna, consider radio proximity. For short
distance paths, check the receive signal level. If it exceeds
–40dBm, a 20 dBm you must fit an attenuator in-line with the
coaxial cable. Do not use demonstration antennas for the final
installation.
Use Figure 1 as a guide for installing an antenna and attaching it
to the 945U-E.

NOTE
This equipment is suitable for use
in ClassI Division 2 groups A, B,
C and D hazardous locations, or
nonhazardous locations only.
WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD
Do not disconnect equipment while
the circuit is live or unless the area
is known to be free of ignitable
concentrations. Substitution of any
component may impair suitability for
Class I Division 2.
Statutory requirements
FCC: Unlicensed operation limits
the radio power. High gain aerials
may only be used to compensate
for cable losses. .

RS-485 connections
Use shielded twisted pair cable to
interconnect modules to reduce
potential RFI.
Maintain the polarity of the two
RS-485 wires.
Terminate each end of the
network with a 120-ohm resistor.
An on-board terminating resistor is
provided in the modem and can be
engaged by setting the DIP switch
on the end plate to ON.

Connect to Ground as close
to the module as possible
NOTE
All connections must be SELV <50 Vac and <120 Vdc.
If the wireless Ethernet modem is installed as Category 3
equipment, it must be installed in an enclosure that maintains
an ingress protection rating of IP54 and meets the enclosure
requirements of EN50014 or EN60079-0.
If the wireless Ethernet modem is installed in a hazardous
environment, coaxial cable must be installed in a metallic conduit,
per NEC requirements.
Digital Output will activate for approximately 5 seconds during the
device power up sequence.
WARNING
The wireless Ethernet modem enclosure contains aluminum and is
considered to constitute a potential risk of ignition by impact or friction.
This must be taken into account during installation.
The non-metallic cover of the wireless Ethernet modem constitutes an
electrostatic discharge hazard. Clean only with a damp cloth.
The following illustration shows the ports and switches on the
945U-E. The Ethernet port is wired for a hub or switch.
