A.H. Systems SAS-512-2 Log Periodic Antenna

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

The SAS-512-2 Log Periodic Antenna is shipped fully assembled. If an optional

Log Periodic Tripod mount (LPM-510) was purchased, that will also be pre-

assembled and mounted to the antenna.

The SAS-512-2 is a lightweight, rear mount Log Periodic Antenna. Attach the

antenna to the azimuth and elevation head (AEH-510) through the screw hole in

the antenna base. The azimuth and elevation head (AEH-510) mounts to the

tripod (ATU-510) top and allows the antennas to be rotated 360 degrees and

tilted between horizontal and vertical polarization. Each tripod leg is

independently adjustable in angle and length to facilitate antenna height setting.

The tripod legs have a rubber tip on one end for indoor or hard surface use, and

a metal spike on the other end for outdoor soft surface (such as dirt) use.

Four extra holes are pre-drilled into the booms (at the approximate CG point) of

the antenna for an optional Log Periodic Mount (LPM-510). This allows an

optional center mount of the antenna where applications require it.

Mount the antenna such that the elements are parallel to the ground for

horizontal polarization testing, or perpendicular to the ground for vertical testing.

The horizontal beamwidth of the log periodic is approximately 45 degrees and it

should be pointed or aimed in the direction that the received signal is coming

from.
