1. BriefSummary:

TroubleshootingdocumentfordiagnosingafaultwithandreplacingthelevelcagemotorontheXX04and6003A/6004

seriesantennas.

2. Checklist:

VerifyInitialization

VerifyPointing

VerifyTargeting

3. TheoryofOperation:

ElevationdriveoccursfromoffsettingthelevelcagewhichintroduceserrorintothePCU’scontrolloop,theelevation

motorwillthendrivetheaxistobringthelevelcagebacktolevel,removingtheerrorandinturnchangingtheelevation

lookangleoftheantenna.Ifthelevelcagemotorisdefectiveitwillpreventthesystemfromtargetingthecorrect

elevation,bynotoffsettingthelevelcagethecorrectamountandthereforecausingtheelevationtargetingerror.

Asignthatthelevelcagemotorisfaultyisthesystemkeepsfindingthesatelliteatdifferentelevationpositionsandthe

trimsneedadjustingtocompensateforthis.Anotheristhesystemmis‐pointscompletelyandthelookangleofthe

antennadoesn’tcorrespondwiththevaluedisplayedontheDAC.Whatisactuallyhappeningisthemotorisn’toffsetting

thelevelcageproperly,thereforethesystemisn’ttargetingcorrectlyTheDAC,however,willdisplaythedesiredtarget

positionasthereisnolivefeedback.

4. VerifyInitialization:



Powercyclethepedestal

1. Levelcagedrivestoitsendstop,thenbacksoffexactly45degrees

2. Elevationaxisdrivestolevelbasedonthelevelcage’shorizonreference

3. Crosslevelaxisdrivestolevelbasedonthelevelcage’shorizonreference

4. Limitedazimuthsystemsdriveclockwiseintotheazimuthendstop,thenbackoffto630degreesof

relative



Verifyifthelevelcagemotordrivescorrectly,ifnotthenthesystemwon’ttarget45degreesofelevationduringthe

initializationprocess.

IftheACUreportsmodel"xx03/xx04",theantennasN0parameterneedscalibratingandverifyingthatthePCUsavesit

correctly.Adriveissueorpedestalerror(error8)requiresfurthertroubleshooting.

5. VerifyPointing:

Drivetheantennathroughoutitselevationrangeandverifyitpointscorrectly.Target0,45&90degrees,makingsure

thereflectorisatthecorrectpositiondisplayedontheDAC.

6. VerifyTargeting:

Iftheantennaappearstopointcorrectlyamoreaccuratewaytoverifythisistoseeifitcanrepeatedlytargetthecorrect

elevationofasatellite.Trimthesystemtothecorrectelevationandthenpointtheantennaawayfromthesatellite.Now

targetthedesiredsatelliteandverifythesystemtargetstowithin0.5degreesofthecorrectelevation.

Anyerrorintheabovestepsisanindicationthelevelcagemotorisdefective.

7. TesttheMotor:

Thesteppermotorcanbeverifiedbymeasuringresistanceacrossthefollowingconnections:



Pin1to3=38ohm

Pin2to3=38ohm

Pin5to4=38ohm

Pin6to4=38ohm

Pin1to2=76ohm

Pin5to6=76ohm



Ifoneofthemeasuringpointsisopen(noresistance)themotorisdefectiveandneedstobereplaced.Alsomeasurefrom

allthepinstoground(themetalcaseofthemotor)theymustbeopen,notshorted.

8. FurtherInformation:

Nowthemotorhasbeenreplacedverifythesysteminitializesproperly,hasthecorrectrangeofmotionandtargetsthe

correctelevationvalues(iftheelevationtrimwasadjustedbecauseofthetargetingerrorthiswillneedresetting).

IfthetargetingissuestillpersiststhereisthepossibilitythatthedriverforthelevelcagemotoronthePCUmotherboard

hasfailed.TestthefourtransistorsonthePCUmotherboardfordamageasperthebelowimage.



Setyourmulti‐metertotheDiodesettingandtestbetweenthepinsofthetransistorsasperthefollowing

procedureandverifytheresults.



Ifthesystemisdisplayingapedestalerror(error8)thenthereisadriveissuewiththeantennaandattentionwillneedto

bepaidtothemotorandmotordriverfortherelevantaxis.
