The installation of YFGW510 and field wireless devices must meet the following conditions:
• The field wireless equipment should be mounted in the place where no obstacle exists
around the antenna. Especially, YFGW510 should be mounted in the condition that no ob-
stacle exists around the antenna.
• If there is a pipe for mounting or plumbing in the direction except for the communication
partners, the antenna should be more than 30 cm apart from them.
• When the wireless LAN antenna or field wireless antenna do not meet above requirements,
use an extension cable to place the antenna where radio waves will not be affected by ob-
stacles.
• All antennas must be in the upright position.
• The antenna of field wireless equipment must be installed at least 1.5 m above the ground
(floor)
• The YFGW510 should be installed at a location as close as possible to the center of the field
wireless network.

meet this condition.
