Choosing the location

Choose the location so that you can easily establish the following connections:
– Ethernet cable socket, which, for example, establishes the connection to the out-
door modem through a wall duct.
– Ethernet cable socket for connection with a PC or network.
– Connection of the power lead with a mains socket.
First choose the location for the indoor unit:
– Consider the stated temperature range for the indoor unit when choosing the
location (see "Specifications" on page 47).
The indoor unit can be operated either on a horizontal surface or mounted on a wall.
Make sure the connections cannot become loose and that the LEDs are clearly vis-
ible.
Lay the cables in such a way that nobody can tread on or trip over them.

System requirements

To install and get started with the indoor unit, the following requirements must be ful-
filled:
The outdoor modem has been properly installed and is ready for use. The associ-
ated Ethernet cable is fitted with an RJ45 plug and ends close to the indoor unit.
PC with a LAN interface 10/100BaseT or an Ethernet network
10/100BaseT. The network adapter must support one of the following modes:
10BaseT Half Duplex, 10BaseT Full Duplex, 100BaseT Half Duplex,
100BaseT Full Duplex.
The TCP/IP protocol has to be set up on the PC (standard installation for Windows
XP and Windows Vista; if you are using a different Windows operating system, read
the separate instructions on network configuration on the product CD, if necessary).

Wall mounting (optional)

The indoor unit is fitted with two clips for wall mounting. Wall mounting is not absolutely
necessary, but is recommended to make the cable connections mechanically secure.
Use screws, anchor fittings and cable clamps to mount the indoor unit on a wall.
Make sure the LEDs are easily visible.
