Connecting Antennas
Two antennas allow the Spectrum Manager to capture scan data and analyze the
RF signals used in diversity receiver applications. If active antennas are used, set
Antenna DC Power to On.
To use front-mounted antennas:
1. Insert the bulkhead adapters on the supplied front-mounting cables through
the holes in each bracket and secure them from the front using the supplied
hardware.
2. Connect the supplied antenna cables to the antenna input BNC connectors on
the rear panel.
