Appendix G
AIND Alignment
Use this procedure when installing the Al- indoor system WinLink™ 1000-
ANID or manually aligning two WinLink™ 1000 units.
To achieve the best results, use the Llink Budget Calculator from the Win-
Link™ 1000 installation, and then align the antennas so that they exactly
face each other.
To achieve the best performance, the line of sight must be as clear as possi-
ble with no obstructions between the two sites.
Prior to attempting alignment, install the hardware and software in accor-
dance with this User Manual. The figure below shows the link setup. At least
two people are needed to perform the alignment procedures.
Once the alignment is complete, you will be able to evaluate the quality of
the link
.
