Use of controls, adjustments, or performing procedures other than those specified herein, may result in hazardous radiation exposure. Machine noise information order - 3. GPSGV, the highest sound pressure level amounts to 70 dB (A) or less, in accordance with ISO EN 7779. Static electricity may cause body harm, as well as harm to electronic components inside the device. Anyone responsible for the installation or maintenance of the IP-10C must use an ESD Wrist Strap. ESD protection measures must be observed when touching the RFU. To prevent damage, before touching components inside the device, all electrostatic must be discharged from both personnel and tools.
In Norway and Sweden: Equipment connected to the protective earthing of the building installation through the mains connection or through other equipment with a connection to protective earthing and to a cable distribution system using coaxial cable, may in some circumstances create a fire hazard. Connection to a cable distribution system has therefore to be provided through a device providing electrical isolation below a certain frequency range (galvanic isolator, see EN 60728-11). Utstyr som er koplet til beskyttelsesjord via nettplugg og/eller via annet jordtilkoplet utstyr og er tilkoplet et kabel-TV nett, kan forrsake brannfare. For unng dette skal det ved tilkopling av utstyret til kabel-TV nettet installeres en galvanisk isolator mellom utstyret og kabel- TV nettet. Translation to Swedish: Utrustning som r kopplad till skyddsjord via jordat vgguttag och/eller via annan utrustning och samtidigt r kopplad till kabelTV nt kan i vissa fall medfra risk fr brand. Fr att undvika detta skall vid anslutning av utrustningen till kabel-TV nt galvanisk isolator finnas mellan utrustningen och kabel-TV ntet.

The units earthing screw terminal shall be permanently connected to protective earth in a building installation in accordance with applicable national code and regulations by a service person. A 2-Pole circuit breaker, a branch circuit protector, suitably certified in accordance with applicable national code and regulations, rated maximum 20A, shall be installed for full power disconnection in a building installation. Any outdoor antenna cable shield shall be permanently connected to protective earth in a building installation.
When selecting a power source, the following must be considered: DC power can be from -40 VDC to -60 VDC. Recommended: Availability of a UPS (Uninterrupted Power Source), battery backup, and emergency power generator. Whether or not the power source provides constant power (i.e., power is secured on weekends or is shut off frequently and consistently). The power supply must have grounding points on the AC and DC sides.
Caution!
The user power supply GND must be connected to the positive pole in the IP-10C power supply. Any other connection may cause damage to the system! Important: For the warranty to be honored, you must install the IP-10C in accordance with the instructions above.

In 1+1 direct mount configuration, the IP-10-C is attached to a coupler. Important! Do not remove the transparent pressure window located on the coupler ports! For 15 and 18 GHz frequencies, two O-Rings are supplied in the Twist kit and should be mounted in the twist grooves. For the 6 GHz frequency, a gasket is used instead of an ORing. The gasket should be mounted between the twist and the RFU-C Coupler kit. 1 Mount the twist to the coupler using the O-Ring and four screws supplied in the Twist kit, and tighten the screws.
Important:
Make sure the polarization mounting direction of the twist to the coupler is according to the antenna polarization.

Remarks
In 2+0 direct mount configuration, the IP-10-C is attached to a symmetrical coupler. Important! Do not remove the transparent pressure window located on the symmetrical coupler ports!
To install an IP-10C in a 2+0 SP direct mount configuration: 1 Remove the Extender from the Symmetrical Coupler by loosening and removing the four M4 screws and washers, as shown in following figure.

2 Mount the twist to the Circulator/Symmetrical Coupler using the O-Ring and four screws supplied in the Twist Kit. Tighten the screws.
Note:
For 15 and 18 GHz frequencies, two O-Rings are supplied in the Twist Kit and should be mounted in the twist grooves. For the 6 GHz frequency, a gasket is used instead of an ORing. The gasket should be mounted between the twist and the RFU-C Circulator/Symmetrical Coupler Kit.
Important!
Make sure the polarization mounting direction of the twist to the RFU-C circulator / symmetrical coupler is according to the antenna polarization.

When a remote configuration is required, the OMT is attached directly to the antenna and the IP-10C units are installed remotely, using a flexible waveguide. Before connecting WGs to the OMT, please connect mm to imperial adaptor to the OMT Frequencies 13-42 GHz do not require adaptors Frequencies 6-11 GHz require adaptors, as described in the instructions below. Do not remove the transparent pressure window located on the OMT ports!
