Mounting the Antenna to a Wall
Mountingtheantennatoawallrequiresthefollowingsteps:
1. Markingscrewholesonwall
2. Attachingtheantennabrackettotheantenna
3. Attachingtheantennatoawall
Marking Screw Holes On The Wall
Priortoattachingtheantennabrackettotheantenna,usethebrackettodeterminetheposition
andsizeofholesthatyoumustmakeinwall.
Todeterminepositionandsizeofholesinwall,performthefollowingsteps:
1. Situatetheantennabracketwithanendagainstthewallorientedtobe
abletopivot:
•sidetosidewhenusingverticalp olarization
•upanddownwhenusinghorizontalpolarization
2. Markthewallwiththepositionandsizeoftheantennabracketscrewholes.
Note: Screws for mounting the bracket to the wall do not come with the antenna kit.
Note: Both ends of the antenna bracket pivot. You connect an end to the antenna to pivot in the
direction of the polarization you wish to use, and an end to the wall that pivots in the opposite
direction as indicated above.
