WARNING:
The Outdoor unit (ODU) for the PTP 400 Series Bridge must be properly
grounded to protect against lightning. It is the user’s responsibility to install the equipment in
accordance with Section 810 of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA No.70-1984 or
Section 54 of the Canadian Electrical Code. These codes describe correct installation
procedures for grounding the ODU, mast, lead-in wire and discharge unit, size of grounding
conductors and connection requirements for grounding electrodes. It is recommended that
installation of the ODU be contracted to a professional installer.

The ODU for the PTP 400 Series Bridge MUST be grounded to a Protective
Earth as described in Section 7.7.5 “Grounding the Installation” of this Installation Manual and
in accordance with the Local Electrical Regulations.
WARNING:
It is recommended that the supplied Power Indoor Plus (PIDU Plus) – PTP 400
Series is used to power the PTP 400 Series Bridge ODU. The use of other power sources
may invalidate safety approval and affect your warranty.
WARNING:
When using alternate DC supplies (via the PIDU Plus DC in terminals as
described in Section 3.3.3 ”Redundancy and Alternate Powering Configurations”), such as
battery-backed DC power source, the supply MUST comply with the following requirements:
• The voltage and polarity is correct and is applied to the correct terminals in the PTP 400
Series Bridge PIDU Plus
• The power source is rated as SELV
• The power source is rated to supply at least 1A continuously, and
• The power source cannot provide more than the Energy Hazard Limit as defined by
IEC/EN/UL6090, Clause 2.5, Limited Power (The Energy Hazard Limit is 240VA)
CAUTION:
When the system is operational, avoid standing directly in front of the antenna.
Strong RF fields are present when the transmitter is on. The Outdoor Unit (ODU) must not be
deployed in a location where it is possible for people to stand or walk inadvertently in front of
the antenna.
CAUTION:
Users and installers should note that in an emergency the mains power supply is
the primary disconnect device.
