antenna according to the design document ;

2 Install the anti-fall clamp on the pole. For details , see working procedure 1.5.1B.

3 Bind the lifting rope and pulling rope to the lifting ring and stand of the antenna ;

4 Two installation operators on the ground lift the antenna to the tower;
4 5 6
Install the two clamps of the stand around the pole and fix the clamps on the

document .For details, see working procedure 1.5.1C.

6 Remove the rubber plugs of the two air holes on the bottom of the antenna;

7 Perform the grounding for the ODU. For details, see working procedure 1.5.1D.

Note
When lifting the antenna, you must use the pulling rope to prevent the antenna
7- 7- 1 from hitting the tower. In this manner, the equipment can be protected from

1 Follow the microwave antenna alignment principle;

Determine the voltage values of the design receive level of the ODU, according
2 to the ODU RSI-Vbnc Curve and the microwave design document. (The ODU
RSI-Vbnc Curve is delivered with the ODU).
For 1+1 HSB Protection, turn off the standby ODU's power before alignment

antenna. After finish alignment, turn on the standby ODU and check the RSL.

Note
For 1+1 HSB Protection, turn off the standby ODU's power before alignment
1
antenna. After finish alignment, turn on the standby ODU and check the RSL.
When alignment, you can force the 1+1HSB working at main ODU also,and after
