11.2 Handling with two hands using the HyperLOG antenna:
First, carefully screw the included
SMA cable
to the
SMA plug
on the SPECTRAN. Screwing should be
possible easily and without force.
Do not apply
excessive force!
As soon as there is resistance,
slightly tighten the plug using the
SMA tool
. Again,
don’t use excessive force. Never trigger the over-tor-
que protection (the
SMA tool
has an overtorque pro-
tection and starts slipping as soon as
excessive
force
is applied).
Now, attach the other end of the
SMA cable
to the HyperLOG antenna. Again,
first screw the plug on the socket, then slightly tighten using the
SMA tool
.
Final-
ly, screw the included
pistol-like grip
to the bottom side of the HyperLOG
antenna, in a way that the HyperLOG antenna points away from yourself (see
picture).
Now, you can handle both the SPECTRAN and the HyperLOG antenna with one
hand each.
Like this, the HyperLOG antenna can be used in parallel to SPECTRAN and
rotated and adjusted independently, for example, for finding the signal maximum
using the so-called
panning approach
.
SPECTRAN’s keypad can be used during the whole measurement by just using
your thumb.
11.3 Single-hand use with attached HyperLOG antenna:
Using this method, you can
directly
attach the
HyperLOG antenna to SPECTRAN to build a single,
compact unit. This offers a few advantages for
making adjustments during measurement, as keys
can now be pressed all the time using your index fin-
ger. However, the HyperLOG antenna cannot be
used independently of SPECTRAN anymore.
