Transceiver Alignment

Successful installation of the TereScope depends primarily on precise and accurate optical alignment. Carefully follow the instructions below!!!

Important: Handle the Telescope with great care since it is the main tool for fine alignment.

Turn on the power to the TS5000 heads from the power source.

Models G and G-F: Set DIP switch toggles 1,2 to the “Alignment” position (indicated on the back panel).

Models 155 and 155-F: Set DIP switch toggles 1,2 to the “Alignment” position (indicated on the back panel). If the installation distance is less than 900m it's recommended to attenuate the signal for the alignment process, by pushing to ON position the toggle #3 of dip-switch DS2. Caution: Switch back to OFF position for normal mode operation. Models ETH and 4U1: Even if the data port is left unconnected, the TS5000 transmits an Idle Signal which can be used to perform alignment.

The ttransceiver alignment procedure is implemented in two stages:
