Initialize Site Location

Selecting the Start Initialization button from the Initialization Entry Screen will cause a popup warning window to be displayed as shown in Figure 10. This warning is a reminder that the antenna installation hardware limits must be validated with a hand held unit prior to initializing with the wizard.

WARNING

Doing this step incompletely or inaccurately may result in damage to the hardware during later steps or normal operation.

Selecting OK on the warning screen will bring up the first screen in the Initialization Wizard cycle which requests the site location, the antenna ID, the antenna size, and the availability of the pol drive (See Figure

11). The antenna site location accuracy will affect the tracking capability so it is important to get a valid GPS type of accuracy of the antenna location latitude and longitude.

The antenna ID will identify the antenna under control by displaying the antenna ID at the top of the screen on all screens. The default ID is Antenna1. The antenna ID is also used as the directory name on the controlling PC that is used to save the satellite table data, the alarms log, the configuration file (if requested) and the position file (if requested). Unique antenna IDs allow a single PC to control several antennas.

The antenna size is selected from a pull down menu. The valid antenna sizes are: 2.4m, 3.6m, 3.7m, 4.5m, 4.6m, 4.9m, 5.6m, 6.5m, 7.3m, 7.6m, 9.3m, and 9.45m. The antenna size in combination with the beacon receiver frequency is used to compute the antenna beamwidth needed for tracking.
