For coarse alignment of the SM, use the Alignment Tool located at Tools, Alignment
Tool.
Optionally, connect a headset to the AUX/SYNC port on the SM and listen to the
alignment tone, which indicates greater SM receive signal power by pitch. By adjusting
the SM’s position until the highest frequency pitch is obtained operators and installers
can be confident that the SM is properly positioned. For information on device GUI tools
available for alignment, see sections Using the Alignment Tool, Using the Link
Capacity Test tool, and Using AP Evaluation tool in Configuration Guide.

Align the BHM as follows:
a.
Move the module to where the link will be unobstructed by the radio horizon and no
objects penetrate the Fresnel zone.
b.
Use a local map, compass, and/or GPS device as needed to determine the direction
to the BHS.
c.
Apply the appropriate degree of downward or upward tilt.
d.
Ensure that the BHS is within the beam coverage area.
3
Using stainless steel hose clamps or equivalent fasteners, lock the BHM into position.
