6. SUPPLYING POWER TO THE UNIT
The TRACER 64x0 can operate from an LPS or Class 2 power source between 21 and 60 VDC and a
minimum output current rating of 1.2 A, with either polarity referenced to ground. Power supplies should
be able to provide up to 25 W at the selected voltage and be suitable for operation at a 50° C ambient
temperature. A dual pin terminal plug accepts power at the rear panel of the unit, providing a voltage (
+/–)
and ground (
GND) reference point.
7. MOUNTING OPTIONS
Install the TRACER 64x0 in a location that requires minimal antenna feedline length (the loss in this cable
directly affects overall system performance). The TRACER 64x0 is designed to be mounted in a rack. If
multiple units are installed in one location, one-half inch of spacing is recommended above and below the
unit.
The TRACER 64x0 systems are 1U high, rack-mountable units which can be installed into 19-inch (see
Figure 3 on page 49) or 23-inch (see Figure 4 on page 49) equipment racks using the supplied rackmount
brackets (3265498@B). Follow these steps to mount the TRACER 64x0 into a rack:
Power to the TRACER 64x0 DC system must be from a reliably grounded
21 to 60 VDC UL Listed Power Supply with outputs meeting LPS requirements.
A readily accessible disconnect device that is suitably approved and rated shall be
incorporated in the field wiring.
Instructions for Rack Mounting the TRACER 64x0
1. Position the TRACER 64x0 in a stationary equipment rack. This unit takes up 1U of
space. To allow proper grounding, scrape the paint from the rack around the
mounting holes where the TRACER 64x0 will be positioned.
2. Have an assistant hold the unit in position as you install two mounting bolts through
the unit’s brackets and into the equipment rack using a #2 phillips-head
screwdriver.
Be careful not to compromise the stability of the equipment mounting rack when installing
this product.
