Using a fixed EXPLORER
®
500 (semi-fixed installation)
You can keep the EXPLORER 500 in a fixed position, using the Pole mount kit for EXPLORER 500.
See Options and accessories on page 141 for information on type number.
Do as follows:
1.
Mount the EXPLORER 500 on a pole or a
wall, for example using the Pole mount kit.
A size M6 thread fits into the mounting
bush in the back of the EXPLORER 500.
2.
Start up the EXPLORER 500 and point the
antenna as described in Pointing the
antenna on page 21.
3.
Accept the signal strength by pressing
OK
on the EXPLORER 500 keypad.
4.
Fasten the EXPLORER 500 in the pointed position.
You only have to point the antenna once, when you mount it. Using a computer connected to the
EXPLORER 500, you can set up the EXPLORER 500 to skip pointing at power up. Refer to Pointing
at power up on page 92.
Note
The EXPLORER 500 is not suited for permanent outdoor installation.
