Installation Instructions
Important: SmartRoute Systems are intended to be professionally
installed. Only a half-wave dipole antenna with a maximum gain of
2.2dBi must be used as the ISM band antenna with this product to
meet the FCC regulations. No other antenna apart from the part
specified above must be used as the GPRS antenna.
The unit is designed to be wall-mounted or pole-mounted in normal
operation.

Network Commissioning Procedure
Connect to the unit via the GPRS network using the DataCollector
Commissioning software on the laptop.
Once a connection has been established, the program will read the
existing configuration from the DataCollector. A message will be displayed
indicating if the configuration data has been successfully received.
The DataCollector may now be configured, as follows:

The DataCollector may now be configured, as follows:
1.
Choose a unique ‘Network ID’. i.e. an ID that is not already used by
an adjacent SmartRoute Network. This value must be different from
the Default of 255.

2.
Enable the Level-1 Commissioning Mode on the DataCollector before
installing any endpoints on the site. Wait until all the endpoints on the
site are installed or until the end of day whichever is earlier. Load a
list of installed endpoints into the Commissioning software and using

picked up, enable the Level-3 commissioning mode and so on until
Level-7.

General Warnings and Safety
Caution Ensure a separation distance of at least 20 cm (8 inches) is
normally maintained between the transmitter’s antenna and the body of
the user or nearby persons. The DataCollector is not designed for or
intended to be used in portable applications within 20 cm. (8 inches) of the
body of the user.
Warning Changes or modifications to the product not expressly approved
by BluTower could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. See
FCC information below.
This sheet provides instructions needed to successfully connect and
configure the DataCollector for use in a SmartRoute Network. These
instructions are only a supplement to training in the operation of the
product. For further training information, contact BluTower directly.
