Step 1 - Installation

1. Make sure no items are missing. Your IRX1 kit should include:

• IRX1 rack mount unit.
• 2 Rack mount right angle brackets.
• AC/DC adapter.
• User manual.


2. Install the IRX1 unit in a rack mount


CAUTION!: Leave space for front, back and lateral ventilation.


3. Connect the RF Entries.

The RF entries are connected directly to the return node's tap. The maximum RF level entry is 40 dBmV per RF input. This is however the total RF level between 5 MHz and 45 MHz. It is recommended to have a minimum of pads without having the frequency band (5-45MHz) power to go over 40 dBmV per RF input.



CAUTION!: Levels over this limit can distort the signal or damage the receiver's RF frontend. Contact the CPAT technical support for more information.


4. Electrical installation

Connect the DSG1 to a 110/220 V and 50/60 Hz power source using the provided AC/DC adapter.


5. Connect the IRX1 to the internet

The IRX1 needs an access to the internet to transmit received measurement level to the CPAT servers and for automatic firmware update. Transfers vary from less than a 1MBytes to a maximum of ~7Mbytes per day depending of the intensity of the patrolling, the number of ITX1 in the sector and the number of failure on the network.

The IPv4 address is acquired with the use of DHCP. If no DHCP server is present on the network, the system will not be able to transmit data over the network.

Make sure that the unit has an access to the Internet and that the FTP TCP port 21, remote assistance TCP port 26 and RIM UDP port 20000 are open (outgoing). Without this access, it won't be able to communicate with our FTP and “Realtime Ingress Monitor” (RIM) servers and we won't be able to access the IRX1 for remote assistance.
