Page 16: Antenna Pointing
Should read 0 degrees when feed booms are parallel to earth Inclinometer 4. Patriot recommends the use of cross pol nulling using a spec- trum analyzer during TX/RX installations. After tightening the azimuth and elevation hardware, peak the co-pol signal using the spectrum analyzer. - Page 17 Grounding Coaxial Cable (to LNB) Grounding Antenna Feed Cables Ground Block NEC Section 810 1. Ground antenna feed cables in accordance with current National Electric code and local elec- tric codes. The illustration shows a typical grounding method. Ground Wire Clamps that provide a solid connection between NEC Section 810 ground wire and a ground source should be used.
- Page 18 Feed Adjustment (Polarity tuning) 1. Adjust the Feed to the appropriate skew angle using the provided scale reference. Polarity Scale NOTE: Refer to the chart on back for polarization Reading Points angle. Elevation and polarity are both dependent on site azimuth and the difference between satellite and site longitude.
