4.8.2.
Remove the restraints from the antenna and verify that the antenna moves freely in azimuth, elevation, and
cross level without hitting any flanges on the radome.
Remove Stow Braces/Restraints
4.8.3.
Verify that all pedestal wiring and cabling is properly dressed and clamped in place.
Verify all assembly and Wiring connections
4.8.4.
Assure that the antenna assembly is balanced front to back, top to bottom and side to side by observing that
it remains stationary when positioned in any orientation. Refer to the Maintenance section for complete
information on balancing the antenna.
Balance Antenna Pedestal
4.9. Power-Up The ADE
Turn Pedestal AC power breaker ON.
4.9.1.
Turn the pedestal power supply ON. The PCU will initialize the stabilized portion of the mass to be level with
the horizon and at a prescribed Azimuth and Elevation angles. The antenna will go through the specific
sequence of steps to initialize the level cage, elevation, cross-level and azimuth to predetermined starting
positions. Each phase must complete properly for the antenna to operate properly (post-initialization). Refer
to the initialization text in the Troubleshooting section in this manual. Observe the Initialization of the
antenna pedestal.
Initialization
If any of these steps fail, or the ACU reports model "xx97", re-configure the PCU as described in the Setup
section of this manual. If initialization still fails, this indicates a drive or sensor problem, refer to the
Troubleshooting section.
4.9.2.
Note the approximate position of the antenna relative to the bow of the ship while it is at the home switch
position. This information will be used later to calibrate the relative position display of the antenna.
Home Flag Position
4.9.3.
Turn Power ON to the ACU. Record the power-up display, Master (ACU) Model & Software version and the
Remote (PCU) Model & Software version.
