ECLIPSE INSTALLATION MANUAL
l The rotator is an integral part of the antenna mount. Vertical polarization is
the default setting.
l The V and H settings are indicated on the rotator head.
Remote-Mounted ODUs are used where standard antennas are used (antennas
are not fitted with the Eclipse mounting collar).
l Antenna installation for V or H polarization is normally determined by the
orientation of the waveguide port / slot.
l To remote mount an ODU, refer to Remote-Mounted ODUs on page 53.
l This figure shows antenna waveguide port (slot) orientation for vertical and
horizontal polarization settings.

ODU Rotator Procedure
If the ODU rotator is not set for the required polarization, you must adjust its ori-
entation. This topic describes typical adjustment procedures for Andrew antennas.
Similar procedures apply to other antennas approved by Aviat Networks. Instruc-
tions are included with all antennas.
To change the polarization of the Andrew antenna:
1. Release (do not completely undo) the six metric Allen-head screws approximately
10mm (3/8”). Pull the collar forward and hold the rotator back, which will allow the
rotator to disengage from a notch in the collar, and turn freely.
2. Turn the rotator hub 90° until it locates back into a notched “timing recess” in the
collar.
3. Check that the timing mark on the rotator hub has aligned with either a V or an H
on the collar to confirm polarization as shown below.
4. Ensure the rotator hub is correctly seated within its collar, then push the collar
back against the antenna mount and re-tighten the six screws.
