Connecting antenna

Narda directional antennas are connected to the device via the Narda antenna handle.

Connecting the handle to the device

The antenna handle has a built-in cable with two connectors:

      Control connector: for power supply and for transmitting the compass data and control signals

      N-connector: for transmitting the RF signal

Figure:        Control connector (1), N-connector (2)

To connect the handle:

1.   Plug the control cable plug of the handle into the control connector socket on the device (1), making sure that the red mark on the control cable plug is aligned with the notch on the control connector socket (show figure).

2.   Press the control cable plug into the control connector socket using the locking sleeve until the plug lock clicks into place.

3.   Place the N-connector of the handle into the N-connector of the basic unit (2) and tighten the coupling nut slowly and without tilting.

Connecting the antenna to the handle

Narda directional antennas can be attached to the handle in positions that are at angles of 90 degrees to each other. This makes it quick and easy for you to change the polarization plane of the antenna.

Push the antenna onto the handle until you hear the connector click into place.
