Remote Installer Duties
After acquisition, record the baseline readings as outlined below. The data serves as a
reference in case the antenna is moved or some other service issue arises.
Baseline readings are checked periodically by the Network Operator to ensure that the service
is not degrading. Many events such as bad weather, sand or dust storms, solar flares,
movement of the antenna, or aging can cause the levels to change. For transient events,
monitor the levels to confirm return to the baseline values.
Follow the procedure in
“Recording Remote Status Using a Console Connection”
