Section 7
ATC200-LITE-USB Issues
1. Andrew requires pretesting actuators on the ground prior to installation,
using the Andrew portable controller and the latest version of the
controller software (available online at www.andrew.com under Products
→
Antennas→Teletilt
®
RET System). This will verify proper actuator
functionality and also ensure that the latest available actuator fi rmware
release is installed on the actuator. Failure to conduct pre-test and pre-
installation procedures defi ned by Andrew will void warranty.
2. Unauthorized removal of a protective shroud to replace actuators voids
the Andrew warranty.
7.1 No USB Connection
• See Section 13 to correct USB driver.
• A USB cable does not work on Vista 64 bit. (If your C drive contains a folder for “Program
Files” and a folder for “Program Files X86”, you have Vista 64 bit.)
Use a serial cable instead. If you do not have serial ports on the computer, use a serial to USB
adapter. Two preferred sources of the adapter are the Dynex from Best Buy or the Airlink from
Fry’s. A 64 bit driver for the adapter is also needed.
• Reboot the laptop to see if it will recognize the ATC200-LITE-USB.
• Disconnect and reconnect USB cable to get the laptop to recognize the USB.
• Jiggle the USB cable to make sure it is making contact.
7.2 Tilt Range Incorrect
• Ensure actuator is confi gured for correct antenna model.
7.3 Tilt Reading Incorrect
• It is alright to have a mismatch of ±0.1° between the angle displayed in the antenna bushing
window and the angle reported by the ATC200-LITE-USB.
• Ensure actuator is confi gured for correct antenna model.
