1027144–0001 Revision D 10–6 Maintenance RT installation
Installing the replacement transceiver
7. To install the replacement transceiver, follow the steps in
section 6.9 (page 6–21).
Important: If a mechanical attenuator was previously
installed in the antenna waveguide, make sure it is still in
place in the waveguide before you attach the transceiver to
the antenna.
8. Connect the IFL cable to the IFL connector on the
transceiver.
9. Ground the ODU, as explained in section 6.10 (page 6–23).
10. After you replace the transceiver:
- Go to the next subsection (Replacing the antenna) only
if you need to replace the antenna.
- Apply power to the IDU chassis power supply.
- Use a voltmeter to check the ODU pointing voltage, as
explained in section 7.4.
- Use the CCM LCD to check the ODU status. (For
details, see section 7.7).
- Notify the EMS operator that the RT is ready to resume
service.
If you are replacing the transceiver only, you should not need to
repoint the antenna.
