APPLIED INFORMATION (AI) INTEGRATION
INSTALL GUIDE
1.0 Warnings and Precautions
The following symbols indicate important safety warnings and precautions throughout this guide:
WARNING indicates that serious bodily harm or death may result from failure to adhere to the
precautions.
CAUTION indicates that damage to equipment may result if the instructions are not followed.
NOTE suggests optimal conditions and provides additional information.
1.1
Warranty Disclaimer
This manual will familiarize you with the features, operation standards, and installation of Carmanah’s G Series
Applied Information (AI) system. Failure to comply with the use, storage, maintenance, installation or placement
instructions detailed in this manual could void the warranty.
1.2
Standards
Perform all installation, wiring, grounding and maintenance in conformance with local building and electrical
codes. Adherence to the National Electrical Code (NEC) is mandatory to comply with any certification markings.
Non-adherence to code may void the warranty.
1.3
Safety and Usage Precautions
Batteries are shipped fully charged. Use extreme caution when handling the batteries as they can
generate hazardous short-circuit currents. Remove all jewelry (bracelets, metal-strap watches,
etc.) before entering the cabinet.
Solar panels produce DC electricity when exposed to light and can therefore produce an
electrical shock or burn. To render solar panels inoperative, remove them from sunlight or fully
cover their front surface with an opaque material.
Before lifting any heavy or bulky equipment, ensure the load is secured so moving parts do not
shift, and that it can be lifted as far as needed without back strain or loss of grip. Installation may
require more than one person.
Ensure the equipment is not powered during installation and wiring of the system.

APPLIED INFORMATION (AI) INTEGRATION
INSTALL GUIDE
Recheck all completed wiring for proper polarity prior to energizing the system.
Changes or modifications to Carmanah equipment not expressly approved by Carmanah could
void both the user's authority to operate the equipment and the warranty.
Product can have sharp edges. Accidental movement of hinged components can cause injury.
1.4
Applications
For Carmanah R829-G and R247-G systems, the G Series AI Integration Kit allows for remote system monitoring,
scheduling and control. With Carmanah R820-G and SC315-G Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacon (RRFB)
systems, the G Series AI Integration Kit allows remote system monitoring only.

4.0 G Series Cabinet Installation
4.1
Antenna
1. Remove power to the system. For AC-powered systems, turn off the circuit breaker in the cabinet and for
solar-powered systems remove the battery and solar fuses.
2. Use the indentation in the center of the cabinet to locate the tip of the drill bit. Drill a ½” hole on top of the
enclosure. Deburr hole and remove all aluminum chips.
Ensure the equipment is not powered during installation. Recheck all wiring prior to energizing
the system.
Ensure all metal chips are removed to prevent system damage caused by short circuits.
Ensure that no burrs are present that would prevent the antenna from making a good seal with
the top of the cabinet.
