Wireless Remote Transmitter Installation Manual

The SiteSync IQ Remote Transmitter is furnished with a wireless transmitter. In the USA, these Radio Frequency (RF) transmitters operate

in the licensed UHF business band at 450 to 470 MHz. The SiteSync IQ Remote Transmitter needs to be licensed. For USA customers,

American Time offers the use of a shared nationwide FCC license, call sign WQFW336. In the USA and its territories, this allows nationwide

wireless system operation on the following 5 frequencies up to 100 watts of power, except near the Canadian border*:

464.600 MHz 464.625 MHz 464.650 MHz 464.675 MHz 464.700 MHz

If you wish to use an existing license in the 450-470 MHz band, or obtain a xed license for your site, please contact American Time at 866-

748-3796.

*This shared nationwide license is limited to 5 watts power North of Line A and East of Line C, as dened by a treaty with Canada. Please

check the FCC label on the back of your remote transmitter to determine the 5W transmitter FCC ID.

FCC Conformity (USA only)

Component Location & Mounting Guidelines

uChoose a suitable location for the SiteSync IQ magnetic mount antenna:

a. Locate the antenna at least 4 ft. away from the Remote Transmitter or

other electronic equipment to minimize the potential for interference

caused by the radio frequency energy emitted from the antenna.

b. Locate the antenna within approximately 10 ft. of the Remote Transmitter (

the antenna includes 12 ft. of cable and should not be extended).

c. Place the antenna indoors or outside at a central location on the highest

level of the facility (a rooftop penthouse usually works well, for

example).

d. When installed outdoors, the location should be lower than other

nearby building features or lightning rods to reduce the potential for

lightning strikes.

e. Place the antenna in an area that is easily accessible for maintenance

and inspection.

f. Avoid placing the antenna in an area where snow or ice may build up

and possibly damage the antenna or cable.

g. Avoid placing the antenna in an area where people will touch it or come

within 3 ft. of it during operation of the Remote Transmitter.

h. Avoid placing the antenna in an area surrounded by large metal objects

that could block the radio signal and reduce signal coverage.

vMount the magnetic mount antenna vertically up or down (never horizontally):

a. On a metal object such as the underside of a ceiling beam or air duct.

Be sure to test the pull strength of the magnetic base to make sure it is

safely mounted.

b. On top of a mounting bracket, installed on the side of the building or

other structure. You can use American Time Part #H001233

(shown at right).

Campus Transmitting

Antenna Installation

The Campus Antenna kit is recommended for outdoor antenna installations and improved signal coverage. It can be used with any of the

models and is specied when ordering.

The Campus Kit includes:

A. Heavy-duty, outdoor type 26 inch

berglass antenna

B. 10 ft. COAX cable

C. Lightning arrestor

D. 50 ft. COAX cable

E. N female to N male right angle

adapter

F. N female to BNC male adapter

(only for direct connection to IQ

Remote Transmitter)

G. Mounting kit

American Time recommends installing the Campus Antenna on a mast at an elevated location outdoors.

nWARNING: The SiteSync IQ Remote Transmitter should remain powered off until installation of the Campus Antenna is complete.

u

Select a suitable location for the SiteSync IQ Remote Transmitter and the Campus Antenna.

a. Locate the antenna at least 4 ft. away from the Remote Transmitter and other electronic equipment to minimize the potential for

interference caused by the radio frequency energy emitted from the antenna.

b. Place the antenna indoors or outside at a central location on the highest level of the facility (a rooftop penthouse usually works well,

for example).

c. Place the antenna in an area that is easily accessible for maintenance and inspection.

d. Avoid placing the antenna in an area where people will touch it or come within 3 ft. of it during operation of the Remote

Transmitter.

e. Avoid placing the antenna in an area surrounded by large metal objects that could block the radio signal and reduce signal coverage.

f. When installed outdoors, the location of the antenna should be lower than other nearby building features or lightning rods to reduce

the potential for lightning strikes.

g. Identify a location in the proximity of a suitable means for grounding the lightning arrester.

nNote: Cable lengths should be considered when selecting locations for both the Remote Transmitter and Campus Antenna.

v

Install the Campus Antenna mast (not included) vertically. Mast should be circular and approximately 2 inches in diameter, and should be

made of a non-rusting or rust-resistant rigid material.

w

Attach Campus Antenna (A) to 10 ft. cable (B) at mast end.

x

Attach mounting kit (G) to mast at Campus Antenna location.

y

Insert Campus Antenna into mounting kit and fasten set screws.

z

Route the 10 ft. cable (B) from mast to location of Remote Transmitter. Secure cable with cable ties or other suitable method.

nNote: Do not bend cable beyond original packaged coil bend.



Connect lightning arrestor (C) to the 10 ft. cable (B) and to the ground rod (not included).



Connect the 50 ft. cable (D) to the lightning arrestor (C). If the lightning arrestor is outdoors, seal it and the attached COAX connectors to

prevent moisture from entering.



Connect the N female to N male right angle adapter (E) to the 50 ft. cable (D).



A. When connecting the Campus Antenna to the Remote Transmitter, use the BNC male connector (F). Connect the N female to N male

right angle adapter (E) to the N female to BNC male adapter (F), and connect this adapter to the Remote Transmitter.

Ground the lightning arrestor (C) per the National Electrical Code and any applicable local codes. Seal the COAX connections around the

arrestor to prevent moisture from entering. nNote: This lightning arrester is not designed to withstand a direct lightning strike. However,

it can survive lightning strikes in the general area. See Troubleshooting section for information if you suspect the system has been struck

by lightning.

Introduction

System Setup

All conguration and control of the Remote Transmitter is performed through the Remote Transmitter Connect Web interface utility via a

web browser. This includes Event and Circuit programming, manual circuit activation, time/date settings and other system congurations.

Note: Java SE Runtime Environment (JRE) 7 Update 7 will need to be installed to run the Events Applet.

–This should be downloaded at http://www.java.com/en/

–Ensure that you have the most current web browser (ie. Firefox, Internet Explorer, Chrome)

To access Remote Transmitter Connect:

1. Ensure that the SiteSync IQ Remote Transmitter installation has been performed (pages 5-8). The default Ethernet setting

has DHCP enabled to automatically obtain an IP address from a DHCP server.

2. Open a web browser. Enter the Host Name from page 8 as http://sqrtxxxxxx/ in the web browser’s Address eld (Figure 1).

Press the Enter key.

Figure 1

nNote: If the Remote Transmitter is on a network without a DHCP server, the default address of the Remote Transmitter will be

192.168.10.10. In this situation, directly connect an Ethernet patch cable from the Remote Transmitter to a computer that is on

the same Subnet. Example: Set the connecting computer IP address to 192.168.10.11. See your Network Administrator if you do

not know how to do this.

3. A User Login window, (Figure 2) will appear. There are two available user names, uclock and sclock, which represent the user

and service access levels. The user security level allows access to everything but the Conguration Tab.

User Level Access:

Enter uclock in lowercase letters in the User Name eld and uclock in the Password eld. This is a user login which will allow

access to time/date and event menus.

Service Level Access:

Enter sclock in lowercase letters in the User Name eld and sclock in the Password eld. This is a service login which will

allow access to all menus.

**Passwords may be changed in the Conguration Tab.

Then, click the Login button.

Figure 2

4. The Remote Transmitter Connect utility will appear with the General tab selected. The tabs displayed may differ depending on

the conguration of the unit.
