3.13 Antenna Menu
Up to 4 antennas can be defined. The Antenna menu enables viewing parameters of all defined
antennas, adding an antenna, and selecting an antenna for viewing/updating its parameters or deleting
it.
If an antenna is associated to a Sector, it cannot be deleted.
When adding a new antenna, you will be prompted to configure all parameters.
By default, one Antenna object exists, with the following properties:
 Antenna Number: 1
 Antenna Product Type: default1portV
 Mechanical Down Tilt: 0
 Electrical Down Tilt: 0
 Longitude: 000.000,E
 Latitude: 00.000,N
 Height: 0
 Heading: 0
 Cable Loss: 0.5
The Antenna parameters are:
3.13.1 Antenna Number
A unique number in the range 1-4.
3.13.2 Antenna Product Type
The identification name of the antenna. The available options includes a list of default and standard
antennas. The default is default1portV.
If the Antenna is associated to a Sector, the Antenna Product Type cannot be modified.
3.13.3 Mechanical Down Tilt
The downwards mechanical tilt of the antenna (in degrees) as opposed to the electrical tilt already
integrated in the antenna (and thus taken as reference; instead of the horizontal plane). The range is
from -90.0 to 90.0 using 0.1 degree resolution. Used only for information (inventory) purposes.
3.13.4 Electrical Down Tilt
The downwards electrical tilt of the antenna, in degrees. The range is from -90.0 to 90.0 using 0.1
degree resolution. Used only for information (inventory) purposes.
