Perform the following checks during the installation
1. Check with a GPS that you are installing at the correct location.
2. Check carefully the direction to the other end of the link. Either use a corrected compass or use the GPS waypoint feature about 300meters from the installation location.
3. Keep directing the antenna until the correct Receive Power is achieved. This should ensure that you are not peaking on a sidelobe of the antenna.
4. An hour after disarming check that the mean value for the link loss is as predicted.
