UNPACKING AND INSPECTION

This manual covers the assembly and installation of the Skyware Global 1.8 m SMC offset antenna system. Read this

manual thoroughly before beginning assembly. For best results in the assembly process, perform each step in the same

sequence as listed in this manual.

SITE SELECTION

The main objective of conducting a site survey, utilizing a compass and clinometer, is to choose a mounting location on the

roof or ground that will give you the greatest amount of swing for azimuth and elevation for present as well as future use.

A pre-installation site survey is strongly recommended because it can alert you to any “look angle”, soil, or other problems.

The ﬁrst and most important consideration when choosing a prospective antenna site is whether or not the area can provide

an acceptable “look angle” at the satellite. A site with a clear, unobstructed view facing south, southeast or southwest is

required. Your antenna site must be selected in advance so that you will be able to receive the strongest signal available.

Also consider obstructions that may occur in the future such as the growth of trees. It is important to conduct an on-site sur-

vey with a portable antenna or with a compass and clinometer to avoid interference, obstructions, etc.

When selecting “look angle”, be sure to observe and take readings approximately 10° to the left and right, above and

below your selected “look angle”. Before digging is done, information regarding the possibility of underground telephone

lines, power lines, storm drains, etc., in the excavation area should be obtained from the appropriate agency.

Because soils vary widely in composition and load capacity, consult a local professional engineer to determine the appro-

priate foundation design and installation procedure. A suggested foundation design with conditions noted is included in this

manual for reference purposes only (see page 4). To assist in the foundation design, refer to Antenna Wind loads in Appen-

dix A on page 14.

Before Roof Mount installation, it must be determined that the roof used for mounting the antenna is structurally sound. If

in doubt, have it checked by an architect or structural engineer. It is the customer’s responsibility that proper construction

techniques and applicable codes are adhered to. As with any other type of construction, a local building permit may be

required before installing an antenna. It is the property owner’s responsibility to obtain any and all permits.

ASSEMBLY ALIGNMENT PROCEDURE

Alignment with the satellite is obtained by setting polarization,

elevation, and azimuth. Charts 1, 2 and 3 are to determine the

values for your earth station antenna site. “∆L” is the difference

between the earth station antenna site longitude and the satellite

longitude. Use “∆L” and your earth station latitude to obtain

polarization, elevation or azimuth setting.

Elevation Alignment

Refer to Chart 1 to determine your elevation setting.

IMPORTANT: Before adjustment, loosen the two

bolts (13) (18) on each side of this housing (1/2

turn). Re-tighten all four bolts after adjustment is

completed.

Turn elevation adjustment bolt, Item 9, clock-wise, to decrease

elevation, and counterclockwise to increase elevation. Align the

edge of bracket with the appropriate mark at the desired eleva-

tion reading (See Figure 2.0).This will be an approximate setting.

Optimum setting will be achieved when Fine Tuning. Refer to

Figure 2.3.

NOTE: When the reﬂector face is vertical,while

the beam elevation (beam) axis is 22.62°,the

offset angleof the antenna.(See Appendix,Outline

Drawing,Page 14).

Azimuth Alignment

Use Chart 3 and determine your azimuth setting. Values in

chart must be adjusted for magnetic deviation for

your location for correct compass reading. Equally

tighten the four azimuth locking bolts (15) until snug, and back off

1/8 turn. This will allow azimuth rotation with slight resistance,

without AZ/EL cap tilting on pole. Rotate the reﬂector and AZ/EL

cap, pointing it to the correct compass reading for your location

and satellite. Refer to Figure 2.1. If desired signal is not found,

increase or decrease elevation setting and repeat the azimuth

sweep until desired signal is found. Tighten progressively (1/8

turn each) all four azimuth bolts (15).Repeat until 70-80 ft-lbs (95-

108 N-m) torque is reached.

Fine Tuning

Snug tighten hex bolt/nut in curved slots (13) and pivot bolts (18)

(refer to Figure 2.0). Use a signal strength measuring device for

ﬁnal adjustments to obtain maximum antenna performance. Alter-

nate between elevation and azimuth ﬁne tuning to reach maxi-

mum signal strength, until no improvement can be detected. Top

plate locking bolts (18), 4 places, should be torqued to 6-8 ft-lbs

(8-11 N-m). See Figure 2.3. Turn the azimuth adjusting nuts (3)

clockwise or counter clockwise for azimuth ﬁne tuning. Tighten

and torque all hardware(refer to Torque Chart on Page 2).

Polarization of Feed

Loosen two feed horn clamp bolts (26) and turn feed clockwise

or counterclockwise, depending on being east or west of the sat-

ellite as shown on Chart 3. Align marks on the horn clamp and

appropriate mark on the horn scale. Polarization chart assumes

antenna system polarization is Tx vertical and satellite vertical Pol

is perpendicular to plane of geostationary arc. For horizontal Tx

of antenna, feed must be rotated 90° from values shown. Start-

ing point for polarization adjustment is 0°, as shown in ﬁgure

2.0. Tighten and torque clamp bolts to 4 ft-lbs (5.4 N-m), after

setting.

ANTENNA ALIGNMENT PROCEDURE

Alignment with the satellite is obtained by setting polarization, ele-

vation and azimuth. Charts 1, 2 and 3 are to determine the values

for your earth station antenna site. “∆L” is the difference between the

earth station antenna site longitude and the satellite longitude. Use

“∆L” and your earth station latitude to obtain polarization, elevation

or azimuth setting.

Elevation Alignment

Refer to Chart 1 to determine your elevation setting. IMPORTANT:

Before adjustment, loosen the two bolts (13) (18) on each side

of this housing (1/2 turn). Re-tighten all four bolts after adjust-

ment is completed. Turn elevation adjustment bolt, Item 9, clock-

wise, to decrease elevation, and counterclockwise to increase ele-

vation. Align the edge of bracket with the appropriate mark at the

desired elevation reading (See FIgure 2.0). This will be an approxi-

mate setting. Optimum setting will be achieved when Fine Tuning.

Refer to Figure 2.3. NOTE: When the reflector face is vertical,

while the beam elevation (beam) axis is 22.62˚, the offset angle

of the antenna. (See Appendix, Outline Drawing, Page 14).

Azimuth Alignment

Use Chart 3 and determine your azimuth setting. Values in chart

must be adjusted for magnetic deviation for your location for

correct compass reading. Equally tighten the four azimuth locking

bolts (15) until snug, and back off 1/8 turn. This will allow azimuth

rotation with slight resistance, without AZ/EL cap tilting on pole.

Rotate the reflector and AZ/EL cap, pointing it to the correct com-

pass reading for your location and satellite. Refer to Figure 2.1. If

desired signal is not found, increase or decrease elevation setting

and repeat the azimuth sweep until desired signal is found. Tighten

progressively (1/8 turn each) all four azimuth bolts (15). Repeat until

70-80 ft-lbs (95-108 N-m) torque is reached.

Fine Tuning

Snug tighten hex bolt/nut in curved slots (13) and pivot bolts (18)

(refer to Figure 2.0). Use a signal strength measuring device for final

adjustments to obtain maximum antenna performance. Alternate

between elevation and azimuth fine tuning to reach maximum signal

strength, until no improvement can be detected. Top plate locking

bolts (18), 4 places, should be torqued to 6-8 ft-lbs (8-11 N-m). See

Figure 2.3. Turn the azimuth adjusting nuts (3) clockwise or coun-

terclockwise for azimuth fine tuning.Tighten and torque all hardware

(refer to Torque Chart on Page 2).

Polarization of Feed

Loosen two feed horn clamp bolts (26) and turn feed clockwise or

counterclockwise, depending on being east or west of the satellite

as shown on Chart 3. Align marks on the horn clamp and appropri-

ate mark on the horn scale. Polarization chart assumes antenna

system polarization is Tx vertical and satellite vertical Pol is per-

pendicular to plane of geostationary arc. For horizontal Tx of anten-

na, feed must be rotated 90˚ from values shown. Starting point for

polarization adjustment is 0˚, as shown in figure 2.0. Tighten and

torque clamp bolts to 4 ft-lbs (5.4 N-m), after setting.
