Figure 2.4: Unacceptable Mounting
Mounting Environment & Stability
1.When deciding the mounting location, you should look on the rooftop for vibration sources such as compressors, elevators, motors, and try to avoid them.
2.Photograph the mounting location so as to select the best mounting option.
Figure 2.5 shows mounting locations on a rooftop in descending order of preference. Location 1 is the best; location 7 is the worst.
Figure 2.5: Mounting Locations in Order of Preference
Note: If the only option to mount the TereScope is at points 5, 6 or 7, it has to be mounted at least 2 m above the rooftop to ov the roof scintillation and eventually have people crossing the link beam (If possible, avoid placing the TereScope on the mast).
