Installing the AQUA
Introduction
It is recommended that you read this chapter before installing your Aqua radio.



Physical Description
The Aqua radio-modem is encased in a rugged, waterproof metal case. It has an antenna
mounts on the top, a connector on the bottom and a LED on the front . The physical
aspects of Aqua hardware are outlined below, followed by details covering interface
connections and antenna installations.



Connectors and Indicators
The Aqua radio is fitted with an 8-pin male Bendix connector and an LED indicator light.
See Figure 4.1.


Figure 4.1 AQUA Connectors

The LED can be orange and/or green depending on the situation, as shown in Table 4.1.
Note – The top cap of the AQUA has an antenna contact tip. The tip is designed for
maximum efficiency and very low loss. Please take care not to damage this tip. Keep the
low-profile antenna or flexible antenna base screwed on to the top of the radio when
storing the AQUA, see page 32.

                                              No communication w/ base station
LED Flashing (1Hz)                            Radio has power
                                              Communication w/ base station


Mounting the AQUA on a Machine
When mounting the AQUA on a machine consider the following:
• Reduce damage by minimizing shock and vibration to the AQUA: Mount the radio-
     modem on a solid part of the cab.
Locate the best antenna position: Mount the entire antenna above the roofline so that it
has an uninterrupted view. This improves the performance of the AQUA.
Prevent signal interference: Position the antenna away from other antennas (particularly
if the other antenna is a two-way radio), rotating beacons and strobe lights.
Figure 4.4 shows a typical installation.



Machine Mount Kit
The machine mounting kit for the AQUA comprises:
• Radio mount bracket (upper)
Radio mount bracket (lower)
Machine mount adapter plate (with U-bolts)
Rubber shock mount kit
Figure 4.3 shows the AQUA mounting kit and how the parts fit
together.
Figure 4.3 AQUA mounting kit

Machine Mounting
To mount the AQUA onto a machine:
    1. Bolt the AQUA into the radio mounting bracket (upper and lower brackets).
       Ensure that the radio mounting screws are all fitted with washers and lock
       washers.
    2. Securely mount the adapter plate to the machine. Do one of the following actions:
    • Use existing weld bosses (see Figure 4.4)
    • Weld some weld bosses to the cab
    • Clamp the plate to the top of a handrail at the top of the cab using the U-bolts
    3. Bolt the radio mounting bracket to the adapter plate using the rubber shock mount
       kit. The bolts are included with the adapter plate.
Tip – Use threadlocking Loctite (PN 33803) or equivalent to secure the bolts when you
assemble the shock mounts.
