Normally, the Antenna/RF Unit is grounded via the mast’s
connection to ground.
If the mast has no connection to ground it is recommended to
ground the Antenna/RF Unit via a separate cable. The cable
should be connected to one of the unused M10 screw holes on
the antenna. A flat copper braid is recommended for this purpose.
An ordinary cable can also be used for long distances.

The maximum length of the outdoor radio cable is 300 m when
using RG214 or RG213 foil. Longer cables can be connected if
they have higher performance.
1. Mount the coaxial connectors on the outdoor radio cable.
The connector manufacturer’s instructions for
mounting of the connectors must always be followed!

2. Connect the outdoor radio cable to the RFU and the adapter
between the indoor and outdoor radio cable.
*URXQGLQJWKH5DGLR&DEOH
It is recommended to ground the radio cable every 50 m along the
mast, at the foot of the mast and before entering a building.
If a surge arrester is mounted in the wall, it should be mounted in
a copper plate with a low resistance connection (< 0.1 Ω) to
ground on the outside. This will protect the indoor equipment in
case of lightning strikes.

The radio terminal can be managed either locally or remotely.
When accessing the radio terminal for the first time, you must
manage it locally. During the initial configuration, you should
configure it for remote management to be able to manage it
remotely subsequently.
You only have to carry out the instructions in this section
the first time you access the radio terminal. If you have
accessed the radio terminal before and configured the
ports that you will use for communicating with it, proceed
to section on page 60.
The easiest way to configure the radio terminal is by using a web
browser. In order to establish communication between the web
browser and the radio terminal you must first configure the

The Allgon Microwave Radio has the possibility of cross-
connecting channels from one radio terminal to another via a
common backplane. Any traffic channel on a TIU port or MUX
port of one radio terminal can be connected to any TIU port or
MUX port of another terminal. This makes it possible to drop or
add traffic channels at a node, or reroute traffic channels to
another node.
It is also possible to associate a MUX port with a different RF
subchannel number to cross-connect a traffic channel over the
hop. The RF subchannel number corresponds to the MUX port in
the radio terminal at the other end of the hop if no additional
cross-connection is performed in that terminal. This means that
the port number for a traffic channel can be different from one end
of the hop to the other.

1. Check that all relevant instructions in the preceding sections
of this manual are completed for both installation sites before
you start aligning the antennas.
2. Arrange for speech communication between the installation
sites if possible. This will make it easier to align the antennas
correctly.
WLDM001B
$OLJQPHQW3URFHGXUH
When aligning the antennas, the AGC port on the RFU (BNC
connector) is used to indicate the Received Signal Level (RSL).
Use a standard multimeter with a BNC adapter to measure the
AGC voltage. The AGC voltage is somewhere in the range 0–5V
DC.
The alignment procedure should be performed for one
antenna at a time. If the initial alignment error is large,
however, you may need to begin by moving both
antennas to achieve contact.
1. Connect the voltmeter to the AGC port on the RFU.
The voltmeter will always show a value of at least 0.5V if the
radio terminal is working correctly.
If the antenna is receiving an unknown signal, or a signal from
a radio terminal which has the wrong security code, the
voltmeter will show an oscillating value.
2. Maximize the voltmeter value by using the azimuth and
elevation screws to adjust the antenna. The maximum
possible adjustment is ±20 degrees in both azimuth and
elevation.
If the alignment error is more than approximately 4
degrees, there is a risk that the maximum AGC
voltage that you have found is for a side lobe. The
maximum value of the AGC voltage is lower for a side
lobe than for the main lobe.
WLDM001B
–Loosen the two locking screws (A).
Use the azimuth screw (B) to adjust the antenna.
–Loosen the two locking screws (C).
Use the elevation screw (D) to adjust the antenna.
Do not loosen the locking screws too much. There
should be a slight friction when aligning the antenna.
3. Use the torque wrench to secure the antenna position by
tightening the locking screws for both azimuth and elevation.
These are indicated in the figure above (A and C).
The torque should be 35 Nm ± 10% when tightening
the screws. The azimuth and elevation screws must
not be touched after the locking screws have been
tightened.
4. Check the RSL on the web page "RF Path Status" ( →
) of the Indoor Unit and record the value.
