3.5.1 Attaching the Narda antenna directly to the
Basic Unit
1. Place the Basic Unit in a vertical position.
2. Plug the N connector on the antenna on to the N connector of the Basic
Unit.
3. Carefully do up the coupling nut on the antenna N connector, making
sure that it is not cross-threaded.
NOTE: If the nut seems difficult to do up, undo it and start again.
About 4 turns are needed to make a secure connection.
4. Plug the control cable plug of the antenna cable in to the multipin
connector on the Basic Unit, making sure that the red mark on the control
cable plug is aligned with the notch on the multipin connector.
5. Press the control cable plug into the connector using the locking sleeve
until the plug lock clicks into place.
The Narda antenna is now connected.
The device automatically recognizes the antenna type that is connected.
This is displayed on the screen in the section showing the general
