17-1
17. Stowing the Antenna for Underway with Power OFF
This antenna must be properly stowed if the ship will be underway while AC power to the Above Decks Equipment (ADE) is de-
energized. Failure to do so may void your warranty. It is strongly recommended that AC Power to the ADE be supplied from an
adequately rated Un-interruptible Power Supply (UPS).
CAUTION:
There are three Stow restraints that
MUST
be installed on this
antenna pedestal
if the ship will be underway while the Above Decks
Equipment is de-energized
.
17.1. Installing the Stow Restraints
The order in which the restraints are installed is not critical.
17.1.1. Installing the AZ Shipping/Stow Restraint
1. The AZ Shipping/Stow restraint is formed by a
pin that is lowered into a channel in a stowage
block on the upper plate of the pedestal (as
shown).
2. Rotate the antenna to center the plunger
handle directly over the stow block channel.

3. To restrain azimuth rotation of the antenna
simply lift the spring loaded plunger handle
and rotate it 90 degrees (CW or CCW) to its
stowed position (assure that the horizontal
pin drops through the channels in the top
collar).
