The antennas are mounted on the top center rail (rail 1), which is mounted in position 4
(top of the antenna ring). On the rail, the three antennas are mounted in positions/
holes 3, 10 and 23, as indicated in Figure 6-5. The first and the third antennas are
mounted in 90° angular position. The second (center) antenna is mounted in 0° angular
position.
Apart from the fact that the antennas are pre-installed in the antenna ring, all details

6.2.5 45° adapter for lateral antenna tilt R&S TS-F2X-VH4
The antenna ring and its standard antenna fixtures allow for longitudinal and radial
translation as well as rotation of the Vivaldi antennas. An additional degree of freedom
is achieved with an optional special adapter: the 45° adapter R&S TS-F2X-VH4, order
no. 1525.8758.02. It is designed for the fixtures of the Vivaldi antennas and allows for
their lateral tilting from -45° to +45°, in steps of 22.5°. Expanding rivets lock the tilt
angles, as shown below.

The 45° adapter is not a serviceable part. If it is defective or not working correctly,
replace it.
