Using RAI-100 Remote Antenna Interface Unit
Locate the RAI-100 Remote Antenna Interface in a convenient, conspicuous
location near the measurement equipment. Connect the supplied
AC adapter to an appropriate power source, and connect the plug
end of its cord into the RAI-100.
Secure the AM-741R Monopole Antenna into position for the
measurements. Connect the AM-741R to the RAI-100 Remote
Interface Unit using the supplied fiber optic cable as shown in Figure 12.

Fiber Optic Connection from AM-741R to RAI-100
Once connected, the link will be established automatically. Once the link has
been established, the green REMOTE LINK LED indicator on both the RAI-100 and
AM-741R should be lit.
Now, turn on the Active Antenna’s RF Output by
pushing the RF OUTPUT ON/OFF pushbutton on the
RAI-100 (or on the AM-741R). As long as the RF
OUTPUT ON LED Indicator is lit, and the red
SATURATION LED indicator is NOT lit, your Monopole
antenna is ready to measure. If the SATURATION
LED indicator turns on during the test, the magnitude of the field is outside of the
antenna’s dynamic range, which can cause measurement inaccuracies due to
unintended, non-linear operation. Avoid making measurements whenever
possible when the SATURATION indicator is lit.
