Installation and Mounting of Antenna
The method of installation and mounting of antenna may vary due
to vessel design but the following procedures are applicable in most
situations, and will result in a secure and effective installation.
Conrmation of Size Prior to Installation
• Check the height and diameter of the bottom surface of the antenna
before installing.
• The space must be sufcient for installing the antenna unit
considering the height and diameter of the antenna.
• The height and the diameter of the bottom surface of the antenna are
as shown
in the following drawing. If possible, install the antenna using a power
tower.
Note: Before installing the antenna, open the radome and remove the
shipping constraints from the antenna interior. Reinstall the radome
before operating the system. The system will not perform properly if the
radome is open.
