Fine-Tuning the Link
The Azimuth (AZ) and Elevation (EL) Adjustment Bolts of the
Alignment Bracket adjust the azimuth and elevation within a range
of ±10°. For accurate alignment, make adjustments on one end of
the link while the other installer reports the received signal level at
the other end of the link. Do NOT make simultaneous adjustments
on the Master and Slave.
1.
Slave Adjust the azimuth and elevation of the Slave until
the other installer sees the strongest received signal level
displayed on the LED Display of the Master.
2. Master Adjust the azimuth and elevation of the Master until
the other installer sees the strongest received signal level
displayed on the LED Display of the Slave.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 until you achieve a symmetric link,
with the received signal levels within 1 dB of each other. This
ensures the best possible data rate between the airFiber radios.
4. Lock the alignment on both airFiber radios by tightening all
eight Lock Bolts on the Alignment Bracket.
5. Observe the LED Display of each airFiber AF-24 to ensure that
the value remains constant while tightening the Lock Bolts. If
the LED value changes during the locking process, loosen the
Lock Bolts, finalize the alignment of each airFiber AF-24 again,
and retighten the Lock Bolts.
6. For each airFiber AF-24, attach the Port Cover and turn the
Cover Lock to the Locked icon.
