How to install the
BABY LOOP
Provide suitable support by using a pole with a diameter from 50mm to 60mm
(2.0in
– 2.3in) and a height from 1.5m to 2.5m (4,92ft-8,20ft), depending on the
surface upon which the mast is mounted.
However, if the surface is sloping, the antenna must be set higher than if the
surface is flat.
Please note that the surface upon which the mast is placed must not be made of
wood, fiberglass or plastic.
Run a 2-wire electrical cable with a minimum section of 0.75mm2 (18AWG) (for
distances up to 20
metres/65.62ft)
from the sealed housing of the antenna base to
the pin terminal block on the back of the controller.
Polarity does not matter, the A.T.U. 2.0 will find out and adjust it during the
installation steps later by itself.
If the distance between antenna and automatic controller exceeds 20 metres,
please see page 5
– MOTOR CABLE
Run a coaxial cable (type RG213 or similar) from the SO connector on the PL-
mounting socket of the GAMMA MATCH antenna to the ANTENNA
connector on
the back of the automatic controller.
Now you can proceed to
the first turn on – page 75.
