Heater Pad Placement and Lead Connections
CONNECT THE HEATER PAD LEADS
1. Plug the heater pad connectors together as illustrated on the Heater Pad Placement and Lead Connections
Drawing. The connectors are difficult to fully seat, and will not properly seal until a small snap is felt. Drill 7/16”
holes through ribs and insert grommets if extra lead support is desired.
2. Use the supplied foil strips to anchor connected leads.
ASSEMBLE AND CALIBRATE THE REFLECTOR
ATTACH THE CONTROL ENCLOSURE TO THE FEEDARM
1. Pick a place on the feedarm for Control mounting. The place picked should allow the Heater Pad Cable to
reach the heater leads in the center of Section 1 and allow the Feedhorn Heater Cable to reach the feedhorns
with enough slack lead for movement, etc. For in-board feedhorn arms, a hole may have to be drilled through
the face of the reflector panel for cable passing. DO NOT harm the heater wire in the heater pads if drilling for
cable passing. The Control should not be mounted so close to the reflector that shielding from snow and ice
will occur. This will prevent the system from operating correctly.
