a. Dish blocking zone, azimuth low limit: Carefully jog the antenna clockwise until
the dish is as close as possible to the blocking object, and so that the antenna can move
freely in Elevation without touching the object.
Go to the Blocking zones page, select Dish at the next free line and read the “Current
azimuth” - this is the low azimuth limit of the dish blocking zone. Type in the low
azimuth limit and click Apply (but not Active).
b. Dish blocking zone, elevation low limit: Jog to the highest elevation angle that
allows the antenna (dish) to move all the way past the object in Azimuth. Go to the
Blocking zones page and read the “Current elevation” - this is the low elevation limit of
the dish blocking zone. Type it in under Elevation and click Apply. If the antenna is
completely blocked, use 0 degrees when you type in the blocking zones.
c. Dish blocking zone, azimuth high limit: Jog the antenna counterclockwise as
close as possible to the blocking object, and so that the antenna can move freely in
Elevation without touching the object. Go to the Blocking zones page and read the
“Current azimuth” - this is the high azimuth limit of the dish blocking zone. Type it in and
click Apply.
7. If there are more blocking objects, repeat the procedure above for each blocking object.
8. Select Activate for each blocking zone and click Apply.
After defining and activating the blocking zones you can test it using the Jog function. Jog
the antenna carefully until it meets the defined blocking zone. Observe that it stops at the
blocking zone and that the display and the web interface show a warning.
