Setting Up Wireless Communication
Setting up wireless communication involves installing the antenna at
the monitor location and connecting the antenna to the monitor.
Note: ADS wireless communication products use static
IP address network services provided by AT&T (formerly
Cingular Wireless). Therefore, any installation location
designated for wireless communication must have access to
AT&T 850 or 1900 MHz service. Each wireless device
will be fitted with a SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card
that is provisioned by AT&T with specific account and
network information for use with ADS software.
Installing the Antenna
ADS provides four options for installing the wireless antenna:
 In Road This option involves installing the antenna directly in
the road.
 Pedestal This option involves securing the antenna inside a
telecom pedestal installed off the road.
 Stub This option involves mounting the antenna to an
enclosure, conduit, or antenna mast.
 Magnetic Whip This option involves securing the antenna to
a roof or other protected structure where only a minimal
opportunity exists for theft or vandalism.
Note: While this manual describes the installation process
for each antenna option, detailed installation instructions
also accompany all wireless antennas received from ADS.
