Section 1: Preparing for installation
Before installing your NX50 transmitter, perform the following steps:
1. Ensure that you have performed the pre-installation tasks described in the
NX50 Pre-installation Manual.
2. Make sure that you received all the components. (Check your packing list.)
3. Inspect all crates and packages for damage. Inspect the tip and drop indicators attached to
the crates to determine if a crate has been tipped over or has been subjected to excessive
shock (see Figure 1.1).
Figure 1.1: Tip and Drop Indicators
4. Report any damage immediately to your Nautel sales representative and the carrier.
5. Move the crates as close as possible to the transmitter’s planned location.

6. Unpack the crates in accordance with the instructions provided on the outside of the
crates.
• For each crate, remove the panel labeled open this side. The panel is attached
using Philips head screws.
• Remove any visible packing material, including braces, from the crate's interior.
• Remove the remaining outer plywood shell by unscrewing the outer wood panels
from the pallet under the transmitter.
7. Review any assembly notes or instructions contained inside the transmitter crates. (For
sites requiring custom configurations, the instructions provided with the transmitter
replace the instructions provided here.)
8. Gather the parts and tools you will need for installation. For a list of required tools, see
“Parts and tools” on page 10-1.
9. When you are ready to install the NX50 transmitter, follow the steps shown in
Figure 1.2 on page 1-3.
TIP When you have completed a task or step, put a check mark beside the step
number.
