5.0 Operation

Before connecting any components or

operating the Model 5503, follow the safety

information in the ETS-Lindgren

Product Information Bulletin included with your

shipment.

Testing with the Model 5503 should not be

conducted in an area where the field generated

could cause disruption to other equipment. This

unit must be used in a screen or shielded

enclosure.

The operator should limit exposure to the field

generated by this device.

Antenna Elements

Two conductor cables on each of the elements extend downward to connect the
elements to the load box and balun box. The conductive cables extend and
retract out of the elements depending on the distance to the connection point on
the load box and balun box. For more information, see Cables on page 17.

Four masts extend upward to allow the carriers to slide up and down. The masts,
in conjunction with the carriers and phenolic pins (pegs), allow vertical
adjustment to 1.5 m, 2 m, and 2.5 m.
