Mount unit to pedestal using included mounting hardware
(This step may be completed later.)
IMPORTANT
We recommend mounting the unit on a gooseneck pedestal using the included mounting hardware.
If using alternate mounting, the 4G LTE Antenna Extension Kit (Model

should be purchased and installed.
Failure to do so may result in NO SIGNAL!

Use all four carriage bolts when mounting the unit to a pedestal.
Leave the “hockey puck” antenna in place even if using an antenna extension.
Seal all openings created in the enclosure.
Failure to follow these instructions can damage the unit!
STOP
This is a cellular accessory for a gate or door.
An uninterrupted cellular connection CANNOT BE GUARANTEED!
An emergency egress or primary entry mechanism SHOULD ALWAYS BE USED! (transmitter, fire box, mechanical release)
Consult with your dealer, distributor, and/or system designer for more information.
