3.3 Beginning Program Operation
After program startup and serial port selection, note the text displayed at the bottom
of the screen in the ‘Command Status/Response’ window (Figure 3-3). This window is
used to display the current status of the program, the progress of various commands
that have been initiated by the user, and the nal results of commands, such as success
or failure messages.
3.4 Antenna Definition File Selection
A single antenna denition le is placed in the ‘C:\Program Files\Andrew Corporation\ATC200
Lite’ directory of the PC during program installation. This le is automatically searched for
and loaded during program startup.
The antenna denition le provides a list of all the Andrew base station antennas compatible
with the ATC200-Lite control system. The program automatically selects and uses the latest
version antenna denition le. If a different antenna denition le is desired for use, place
the desired antenna denition le in the ‘C:\Program Files\Andrew Corporation\ ATC200 Lite’
directory and restart the program to make it available for selection. Note that the program only
recognizes antenna denition les that were present in the directory noted above at the time
of program startup. If a new le is placed in this directory, the program must be restarted for
the new le to be recognized and visible in the drop down list shown in Figure 3-9.
1. To select a different antenna denition le, go to ‘Tools, Antenna Files . . .’ from the main
menu at the top of the screen (Figures 3-8).
2. Click on the drop down list arrow to select the desired antenna denition le from
the list (Figure 3-9).
3. Click ‘Load File’ to load the selected antenna denition le for use (Figure 3-9). Conrmation
that the le was loaded will be displayed in the ‘Command Status/Response’ window.
4. Click ‘Close’ after antenna denition le has been loaded successfully.
