Notes:
1. The cable from the client radio to the display can to be routed through
conduit or the display pole to protect it from weather and vandalism. The
cable is weather and sunlight resistant.
2. The Server and Client radios must have a clear line-of-sight path and not be
more than 1500 feet apart.
3. A current-loop j-box is often mounted at the base of the display pole in case
of problems with communication though the radio network.
4. For additional connection and operation information see ED-13894:
DataMaster Radio Installation Manual.

A modem controlled display uses a DataMaster controller connected to a modem/
j-box, to call a second modem in the Rate Display. The DataMaster hand-held
controller will receive its power from the j-box. A wall pack transformer powers the
j-box. The display layout is shown in
and Drawing A-200552.
