Rotating 2010 Antenna
The Model 2010 motorized antenna features a 1.8-meter diameter aluminum dish with a 1.2 mm thickness. Its surface reflection efficiency is at least 85% at 12 GHz frequency. A synchronous AC drive motor with 120 Nm output torque handles positioning. The system provides 360-degree azimuth rotation at a speed of 1.5 degrees per second. Motor positioning accuracy is ±0.1 degrees using a 16-bit optical encoder. The elevation range is adjustable from 5 to 90 degrees. The base structure is made from 3 mm thick hot-dip galvanized steel. The control system supports DiSEqC 2.0 protocol and has a built-in GPS positioner. It withstands operational winds up to 80 km/h and survival winds up to 150 km/h. The operating temperature range is -30 to +60 degrees Celsius.
The mechanical structure employs a four-arm polar mount with spherical bearing connections. A worm gear with a 1:180 reduction ratio ensures smooth and quiet movement. Mechanical limit sensors prevent movement beyond safe boundaries. Internal wiring uses RG-6 Quad Shield cable with 14 dB loss per 100ft at 1 GHz. The central controller has a 32-bit processor and memory for 200 satellite positions. The user interface includes a color LCD display and an infrared remote control. An external power supply accepts 110-240V AC input and
