Unit Installation
To install the EW5001:
NOTE: If installing a separate antenna, skip to step 2 on page 20.
1. Attach the integrated antenna and antenna cable to the EW5001.
NOTES:
• It is easier to attach the integrated antenna to the unit on the ground before carrying it up to the mount.
• Do not rest the device on the integrated antenna; the antenna mount cannot support the weight of the device.
a. Attach the integrated antenna to the EW5001 (refer to Figure 10). Do not tighten the bolts until you align the integrated antenna (refer
to Antenna Alignment on page 26).
Figure 10. Attaching the Integrated Antenna
b. Remove the protective cover from the antenna connector on the rear panel.
c. Connect the antenna cable to the integrated antenna and the EW5001 (refer to Figure 11).
Figure 11. Connecting the Antenna Cable
