CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT - Antenna Groups
Similar to Virtual Rotators, Antenna Groups are
Antenna Selections consisting of groups of
Antenna Paths. However, unlike Virtual Rotators
Antenna Paths in Antenna Groups don't have
assigned azimuths and don't respond to azimuth
control; they simply represent a group of
antennas, which are consecutively switched
when the encoder knob on SMD is turned. The
unique feature of Antenna Groups is the
Autoscan mode, where antennas within an
Antenna Group are automatically switched in
round-robin fashion with an adjustable speed.
The process for adding Antenna Groups,
changing their names and labels, adding and
reordering Antenna Paths within the groups are
the same as those for Virtual Rotators.
TIP:
If you want to allow direct selection of the individual antennas in an Antenna Group or Virtual Rotator
or allow direct selection of directions in a Vertical Array antenna, change the Fit mask in the antenna's RF
Box → Rules tab from 0000 to xxxx.
