Connect the female end of the antenna control cable to your antenna. Then connect the male end to
the antenna connection on the back of the SIR 3000. Connect the two protective caps together. Attach
the survey wheel to the brackets at the back of the antenna (as shown below) and connect the cable to
the SURVEY port on the top of the antenna. Be sure that the triangular plate protecting the survey
wheel encoder faces down.
Connect power source (battery or AC) to the SIR 3000 and push the power button to turn on the
system.
If you purchased your SIR 3000 with a cart as in the UtilityScan System, or purchased the cart system
separately, please see Appendix C: Mounting your SIR 3000 on a Cart. The cart also incorporates a
survey wheel that is used in place of the survey wheel pictured earlier. If you have a StructureScan™
Standard or StructureScan™ Optical system, please consult the hardware setup instructions in the small,
laminated QuickStart Guides that came with the system.
