Az/El mount assembly
The Az/El mount assembly, shown in
, includes components that allow you
to adjust the antenna elevation and azimuth
—
the Az/El canister, the elevation
scale, and the azimuth and elevation adjustment tools. It also includes a grounding
screw, used to ground the assembly to the grounding block.
The Az/El canister supports the antenna and secures it to the mast. The elevation
scale is used to measure the angle of antenna elevation. The azimuth and elevation
adjustment tools are used to finely adjust the azimuth and elevation of the reflector
during antenna pointing. See the
JUPITER Antenna Pointing Guide
(1039429‐0001)
for detailed instructions.
