Step 5: Skipping antenna alignment
Do not start antenna alignment until it is safe for the antennas to radiate RF,
that is, until the antennas and ODUs have been installed on the masts or poles
and no personnel are in front of the antennas.
If the Installation Wizard is being run during pre-configuration before site installation,
then defer antenna alignment until site installation is complete at both link ends.
When the Step 5: Start Antenna Alignment page is displayed (Figure 150), choose whether
to defer or start alignment:
• To defer alignment, select Skip Alignment. This cancels the Install Wizard without
doing alignment, but configuration changes are saved.
• To start alignment, continue at Task 12: Aligning antennas on page 6-98.
If the RFU is not connected to the CMU, then the Start Alignment option is disabled.
The Installation Wizard does not allow progress to antenna alignment.
