Omni Antenna
The RFS Omni antenna is installed on a structure, such as a tower or a pole, which is defined in
the site survey and design. Following are the steps to complete the installation of the panel
antenna.
Assemble the Antenna Mount per the instructions that come with it (Figure 39). Use a compass
to determine which direction is true East (incorporating declination angle - see Figure 30).
Figure 39: Omni Antenna Mount
Position the Antenna Mount in a direction to provide accessibility to the RFS after it is installed.
Position and install the Antenna Mount on the mounting structure so that any one of the eight
mounting hole pins is facing East. Tighten the Antenna Mount hardware to secure it to the
structure (Figure 40).
