Configuration of the SAILOR 100 GX
Task overview for setting up a dual-antenna system
Setting up a dual-antenna system consists of the following tasks:
1.
2.
3.
To set up blocking zones for dual antenna setup
4.
To make an OTC for ADS systems
The tasks are described in detail on the following pages.
Switching between Master and Slave antenna
On the DASHBOARD of the web interface, in the lower right hand corner, there is
a hyper link which you can use to jump between the DASHBOARD of the Master
and Slave antennas. Here it is also possible, like in the top bar, to see if the you are
on the Master or Slave antenna and if the antenna is Active or Idle.
The dual-antenna system switches between the 2 antennas in the following scenarios:
•
When in a programmed blocking zone.
•
When the signal of the active antenna is blocked, whereby the tracking signal is
reduced to at least 4dB below the idle antenna.
•
ADU is malfunctioning.
In the statistics report you can get more detailed information on the dual-antenna
mode.
