Program Startup and Configuration

3.1 Preparing for Program Startup

This program is designed to configure and control Andrew’s ATC200-Lite Teletilt

®

, AISG1

compliant, RET antenna system through a controller connected to a local PC.
1. Verify that the ATC200-Lite controller is turned off/powered down, etc.
2. Verify that the actuator/antenna is properly connected to the ATC200-Lite controller.
3. Verify that the supplied RS-232 cable is connected between the ATC200-Lite controller

and an active RS-232 serial port on the PC. Note a USB–to–serial port adapter may be

used to connect the ATC200-Lite to the PC (see Section 1.3).

4. Turn on/power up the ATC200-Lite controller. After 2 - 3 seconds, the two power LEDs

should display green lights on the front panel of the controller. The power LEDs are located

nearest to the dc IN port shown in Figure 3-1.

5. When these two green lights are displayed, start the ATC200-Lite application installed in

Section 2. DO NOT start the ATC200-Lite application until the power LEDs display two

green lights.
