Winsig 3.1 Ultra/Ultra+ operation manual
The WINSIG 3.1 Ultra antenna is a dual plane, log periodic di
-
pole array antenna. This means that it will receive TV signals in
both vertical and horizontal polarity in both VHF and UHF frequency bands. This covers the full television transmission spec-
trum in Australia.
When fitted (Ultra+) the broadband antenna is an omni
-
directional vertical plane antenna for 3G, 4G and 4GX mobile phone
transmissions.
Operation
1.
Raising the antenna
is achieved by turning the elevating crank handle clockwise in the
“
Raise
”
direction approximately
12
-
13 turns until the resistance from the handle becomes higher.
Note: Before raising the antenna, check above your
van or RV to ensure that there is adequate clearance from obstructions.
2.
Orienting the antenna
is achieved by turning the antenna so that the
“
aiming direction
”
faces the nearest transmission
tower. To achieve this, with the antenna in the raised position, pull down on the orientation ring with both hands as
shown below, and turn the antenna so the
“
AIM
”
arrow corresponds with the direction of the transmission tower in
your area. One of the AIM arrows will have been coloured with permanent marker to denote which orientation your
particular installation features, and this will correspond to the
“
nose
”
of the antenna
.
Note: there are several very
handy apps for both Apple and Android phones. These will show you via GPS navigation, in which direction to point
your antenna. They are available from the respective application stores. Apple: Antenna mate. Android: DVB
