CAUTIONS

LRX-1 based lightning data is only approximate and should not be used for safety

applications. Strike and storm locations indicated and alarm statuses may be

erroneous and should not be used to safeguard personnel, equipment or data.

Install the ANT-50 Sensor on a calm clear day when no thunderstorms are expected.

If you are not experienced in safe antenna installation using appropriate safety

equipment you should refer installation to an experienced antenna installer.

(See Television Antennas or Satellite Antennas in the Yellow Pages)

LIGHTNING HAZARD

ANT-50 connections are not optically isolated from the roof mounted sensors.

Dangerous voltages may occur should lightning strike at or near the sensor.

ELECTROCUTION HAZARD

You can be killed if the ANT-50 mast or its mounting hardware comes in contact with

an electrical power line. WATCH FOR AND STAY AWAY FROM ALL OVERHEAD
