2. Installing the <strong>VSAT</strong><br />
This chapter describes performing arrival activities, Section 2.1, and performing the<br />
<strong>VSAT</strong> installation, Section 2.2.<br />
2.1 Pre-installation Activities<br />
NOTE: Contact your Spacenet area manager immediately if there is any<br />
question about a clear line-of-sight to the satellite.<br />
Coordinate your arrival with the store manager. Installations are scheduled for a specific<br />
time and date. Meet with the site manager or other point of contact (POC) when you<br />
arrive. Provide the <strong>Store</strong> Manager a copy of the authorization letter from the Installation<br />
Guide. Perform a pre–installation survey with the site manager and briefly explain the<br />
installation process.<br />
NOTE: Have the <strong>Store</strong> Manager go to the secondary register and type 414<br />
and press the F2 Key. This keeps register 2 available for checkout.<br />
Determine the best location for the <strong>VSAT</strong> ODU. Locate IDU in cabinet under Server<br />
Register (1) , identify a power source for it. Determine where to run the IFL cable.<br />
Inform the store manager of your plans. If the manager refuses to let work begin or if<br />
the installation must be rescheduled, contact your Spacenet area manager. The AM will<br />
attempt to clear up any issues with <strong>Dollar</strong> <strong>General</strong> Personnel.<br />
2.2.2 Performing the <strong>VSAT</strong> Installation<br />
NOTE: THE INSTALLER IS NOT TO REQUEST ANY STORE PERSONNEL<br />
TO EITHER OPEN EARLY OR STAY LATE TO FACILITATE THIS<br />
INSTALLATION.<br />
NOTE: It is important to schedule the installation in a manner that you will be<br />
able to complete installation in one visit.<br />
2.2.2 Installing the Antenna Mount<br />
Determine the best type of antenna mount to use for the installation and follow the<br />
instructions in the Spacenet <strong>VSAT</strong> Installation Guide. Most installations will use a<br />
non–penetrating roof mount.<br />
2.2.2 Installing the Antenna<br />
See the Spacenet <strong>VSAT</strong> Installation Guide for detailed instructions on assembling the<br />
