  • Page 6 FGAE1000-D1-W-COS-A-H ASSEMBLY NOTE: When using 180 degrees over the top elevation movement during tracking, the cable bridge can collide with the cable routing bar and associated cables. When mounting the cable bridge, be sure the elevation system is on the horizon, then position the cable bridge 10-30 degrees below the horizon to avoid collision with the cable routing bar.

  • Page 7: Cable Routing

    CABLE ROUTING The new AE1000-D1-W-COS-A-N helps to simplify the cable routing process by allowing the cable to pass through the Azimuth axis. This simple change can save on costly repairs when cable get snagged keeping the system from performing. LARGE NYLON TIES TO HOLD DOWN POWER DIVIDERS AND OR FEED LINES...
  • Page 8 CABLE ROUTING Note: When cable routing, each axis should be positioned at the centers of each travel spectrum. Az: If your AZ is set for south center, then position the AZ at 180 deg. EL: if your EL is set for 0 to 90 deg. The set your EL for 45 deg.
  • Page 9 CABLE ROUTE FLAG & BRIDGE AZ Cable Route The Azimuth axis control cable simply attaches to the AZ axis then loops down and back to the full cable bundle coming from the bottom of the cable pass through 6 to 12 inches below the exit of the pass through. Taping or the use of nylon tie to keep the lower main cable bundle together below the cable pass through is recommend-...
