2.0 INSTALLATION 2.1 Unpacking the Unit Carefully remove the equipment from its packing material and set it on a solid surface, such as a table or desk. If it appears damaged in any way, notify the carrier, and keep all packing materials for inspection by the carrier’s agent. 2.
DIAGRAM 2.2A: L-BRACKET ORIENTATION Once the L-bracket is in place, the unit can be mounted to the pole. The pole catch, V-bolt and Lbracket are oriented as shown in Diagram 2.2B. tri2525b_ml_03_sd Approved: G.V. Vecima Networks Inc.
DIAGRAM 2.2B: TRI2525B MOUNTED TO POLE Horizontal Alignment Vertical Alignment STEP 2 – Position V-bolt and pole catch around pole To attach the TRI2525B to the pole, first position the pole catch over the threads of the V-bolt and hold against the pole with one hand. tri2525b_ml_03_sd Approved: G.V. Vecima Networks Inc.
STEP 3 – Position TRI2525B against pole Using the other hand, bring the TRI2525B up to the pole catch and grab V-bolt, pole catch and Lbracket in a single hand. Ensure that the pole is inside the “L” of the L-bracket and not on the outside of the L. This is necessary to maintain antenna alignment during high winds.
2.3 Connection to the Power Inserter and Cable Modem Connections to the TRI2525B are made as shown in Diagrams 2.2B and 2.3A. Please note: 1) Connect the TRI2525B F-Connector to the power inserter, located indoors with the cable modem. The power inserter is then connected to the Cable Modem, only after the antenna is aligned.
2.4 Waterproofing Connections This will provide moisture protection and keep the connections tight. Vecima Networks has provided a 6-inch length of rubber self-amalgamating sealing tape to use on the TRI2525B F-connector. Step 1 Use a 6” section of rubber sealing tape. Starting at the TRI2525B end, stretch the tape and wrap it around the connector as close as possible to the wall of the TRI2525B. Overlap the tape by approximately one-half of its width so that it can form a seal with itself.
When done, the connection should be tightly wrapped with tape, with a good seal to the cable. tri2525b_ml_03_sd Approved: G.V. Vecima Networks Inc.
3.0 ALIGNING THE ANTENNA 3.1 Preparation for Tuning Before tuning the antenna insure that the cable modem is not connected to the power inserter. The cable modem signal will prevent the signal strength indicator from responding to very weak receive signals. 3.2 Signal Strength and Alignment The TRI2525B is equipped with an audible alignment aid that simplifies the setup process. It permits alignment to the hub site without the use of the cable modem or any test equipment.
