Select installation site following 4 rules:

 

-  Clear line sf sight   
-  Suitable surface for fixing mast 
-  Cable route and distance (30m) 
-  Safety of installation 
 

Step  2: 

To  check  Line  of  sight    open    the 

Android/iOS  smartphone  App  36  Broadband 
Pointer 

 

Step  3: 

Click  on  ‘Find  Satellite’  and  move  the

Step 4: 

Make sure no obstruction appears within 

the 

green circle

 

(clear line of sight as fig. 3) 

 

Step  5: 

Identify  on  the  Contract  Form  the 

Polarization value (RHCP or LHCP)

 

 

Step  6:

   

Assemble  the  Transceiver  according  to 

fig. 2.2 

if LHCP or 

fig. 2.3 

if RHCP 

 

Step 7:

  

Assemble  the Antenna: Reflector,  Az/El 

Head, Arm, Brakets

 

 

Step  8:

 

Install  the  antenna  on  the  mast  and 

check with a lever if the mast is vertical

 

 

Step 9:

  

Fix the Transceiver on the antenna arm

 

 

Step  10:

   

Connect  first  Coaxial  cable  between 

modem 

(RF IN) 

and Transceiver 

(RX) 

and

 

connect 

second  Coaxial  cable between  modem 

(RF  OUT) 

and Transceiver 

(TX) 

as fig. 4 (make sure the side 

of  the  cables  with  the  compression  connectors 
are set outside on the Transceiver). Tighten all 4 
connectors with 11mm spanner 

 

Step 11:

  

Connect ground cable to the bracket
