2. Pan the antenna horizontally back and forth while checking
the RSSI voltage. If using the pole-mounting bracket with the
unit, you must rotate the mounting bracket around the pole.
Other external antenna brackets may require a different
horizontal adjustment.
3. Find the point where the signal is strongest (highest voltage)
and secure the horizontal adjustment in that position.
Note: Sometimes there may not be a central lobe peak in the voltage
because vertical alignment is too far off; only two similar peaks for
the side lobes are detected. In this case, fix the antenna so that it
is halfway between the two peaks.
4. Loosen the vertical adjustment on the mounting bracket and
tilt the antenna slowly up and down while checking the RSSI
voltage.
5. Find the point where the signal is strongest and secure the
vertical adjustment in that position.
6. Remove the voltmeter cable and replace the RSSI connector
cover.
