Section 18–Device Configuration with SmartBeam ® Antennas ATC300-1000/2000 Teletilt ® RET System
18-2 August 2014 Bulletin 639544 • Revision L
Notice that the ID for the device that was selected from the main screen appears in the title bar of the
Device Configuration screen. Required fields are marked with an asterisk. Saving a new configura-
tion will not be permitted if any of the required fields are left blank or if values are out of range. Refer
to Figure 18-2.
For SmartBeam, when one axis is configured, the other axis(es) have the same changes applied.
2. Factory installed actuators are pre-configured to include the antenna model number, antenna type,
and antenna serial number it is operating.
3. SmartBeam antennas do not allow re-configuring these fields.
4. Specify the parameters for the remaining fields (Frequency Band, Technology, Base Station ID,
Installer ID, Installation Date, Mechanical Tilt, Bearing, Height, Sector, Location).
Note the following:
• The fields of Antenna Type, Technology, Location, and Height are available for Andrew
non-TMA devices only.
• A positive mechanical tilt angle means that the antenna beam is directed below the
horizontal plane. A negative mechanical tilt angle means that the antenna beam is
directed above the horizontal plane.
• The Bearing is the installed compass orientation for this antenna. For SmartBeam, it may
be configured only from the Pan Configuration screen.
• The Height of the antenna up the tower must be entered in the range of 1 to 999.
