Alignment process
When aligning antennas deployed with a Connectorized PTP 600 Series unit it may not
be possible to hear the alignment tone emanating from the unit. In this case it may be
necessary for a second installer to assist in the operation. Alternatively, it may be
possible to extend the tube on the supplied stethoscope to give a longer reach.
NOTE
Fine antenna alignment can sometimes be achieved by tightening and loosening
the bolts on either side of the antenna mounting bracket, rather than trying to
turn the whole bracket on the mounting pole.
Aligning dual polar antennas
The process for aligning a dual polar antenna is the same as aligning an Integrated
unit with an integrated antenna. This procedure is detailed in Using the ODU
install
ation tones on page 5-59.
