I talked the boss into trying the syncinjectors primarily so I had an excuse to have a sitemonitor at each site. Who would want a network controlled relay capability, if youre putting it up top, you get a temp sensor of sorts out of the deal.
I did not, however realize you can run these things without a site monitor, thats a good tidbit of info to keep in ones back pocket On Fri, Nov 21, 2014 at 3:39 PM, CBB - Jay Fuller <af@afmug.com> wrote: > > Understand > > Sent from my Verizon Wireless 4G LTE Smartphone > > ----- Reply message ----- > From: "Josh Luthman via Af" <af@afmug.com> > To: "af@afmug.com" <af@afmug.com> > Subject: [AFMUG] Packetflux Syncinjector - safe to run without SiteMonitor > Date: Fri, Nov 21, 2014 3:17 PM > > > I've never had to power cycle my radios, but if it really came down to it > I could reboot the whole site at the ground. > > I see the advantages but I'm trying to avoid putting any unnecessary gear > in the box that's going to be up on the tower. > > > Josh Luthman > Office: 937-552-2340 > Direct: 937-552-2343 > 1100 Wayne St > Suite 1337 > Troy, OH 45373 > > On Fri, Nov 21, 2014 at 4:14 PM, Josh Baird via Af <af@afmug.com> wrote: > >> >> How else will you monitor your DC voltages and be able to power cycle >> your radios if you don't have a Base unit? >> >> You can also monitor temperatures in your enclosure with one. >> >> On Nov 21, 2014, at 4:00 PM, Josh Luthman via Af <af@afmug.com> wrote: >> >> I have a site where I'm providing DC up the tower and want to minimize >> products up there.
