4. When the signals are peaked, tighten the azimuth and elevation bolts
completely.
Note: Because slight movement of the antenna occurs during lockdown,
always measure the signal peak value after locking down the antenna.
1. Press Advance (3) for Yes or Toggle (2) to return to pointing validation mode.
If you press Advance (3), the DAPT2 prompts you for confirmation that you
want to save the results, with the message:
Note: Do not disconnect the DAPT2 until the IFL voltage disappears.
Disconnecting the DAPT2 prematurely could cause a loss of all stored
data, invalidating the entire pointing process. It could also cause the
satellite modem to crash.
2. Press Advance (3) to save the pointing validation results, or Back (1) to return
to the previous state.
If you press Toggle (2), the DAPT2 display reads:
This indicates that you have completed the pointing process successfully. The
DAPT2 displays this message for approximately 10 seconds and then displays
the IFL voltage to indicate that the pointing process has finished.
Note: Do not disconnect the DAPT2 until the IFL voltage disappears.
Disconnecting the DAPT2 prematurely could cause a loss of all stored
data, invalidating the entire process.
3. When the IFL voltage appears, disconnect the DAPT2 and reconnect the IFL
cable directly to the radio.
4. Weatherproof all outdoor cable connections with dielectric grease. Depending
on your installation environment, weatherproofing tape may also be needed,
as shown in Figure 10
Note: If you use any cable ties, they must be resistant to ultraviolet rays.
