1.3 BUILDING INFORMATION 1.3.1 OWNER INFORMATION Building owner is: User Other Name: Contact details if owner is other than User: 1.3.2 ACCESS INFORMATION Normal working hours: Restrictions to free access? (Circle Y / N ) Explain procedure: Is work permitted after-hours, weekend, holiday? (Circle Y / N ). Times? After-hours contact: Phone: Is a security guard (for equipment, tools) available? Needed? -3-
1.4 EQUIPMENT DELIVERY ACCESS INFORMATION Freight elevator available? (circle Y / N ) Size or height restriction? X ; Max height: What weight limit? Will user store the VSAT equipment on site before installation? (circle Y / N ) Describe any obstructions along the route from the freight delivery/storage area to the INDOOR and OUTDOOR areas. Record size limits imposed by these. If unobstructed routes from the delivery/storage area to the INDOOR and OUTDOOR areas are not clearly definable, the Surveyor and the User Site Contact must work out an alternative means of transporting equipment to each installation area. Describe the method below and/or on the rear of this sheet. -4-
1.5 OUTDOOR ANTENNA LOCATION Use a GPS receiver to determine the site coordinates: Latitude: Longitude: Height (AMSL): Normal Security? (circle here open / secure ) Is view of sky toward equator clearly unobstructed? (circle here Y / N ) Required antenna mount type is (check one): Roof (penetrating) type, Wall type, Ground-level type, Other type, Describe: If antenna is roof mounted, please indicate the height (above ground) of the proposed antenna location: meters Indicate how the antenna can be installed on site (crane, hoist, etc) and any restrictions involved : _ Antenna deicer power is: Available, To be installed, Not required -5-
MAINS POWER: UPS (Uninteruptable power Supply) Is a UPS available for providing power to the VSAT equipment Yes / No (please circle) Size (in KWH) of UPS KWH Is the UPS shared by other equipment (eg the customer router?) Yes / No (NB: Check for grounding and live chassis issues between equipment on separate UPS s) Make and model of UPS Is the UPS running in stand-by mode (where the equipment power only switched to UPS when there is a mains-fail), or is the UPS running continually from batteries? (The stand-by mode and some units only operate this way, creates an interuption and back-emf when switching back to full mains power. The back EMF of some UPS s is sufficient to damage satellite comnmunication equipment). Please supply any additional detail and configuration information regarding the UPS (if possible attach copy of handbook/data-sheet): _ -6-
1.6 BUILDING AND SITE PLANS Please sketch below plans of the buildings and site with particular reference to cable runs and installation. (Use additional sheets if necessary) -7-
1.7 PHOTO SURVEY 1.7.1 General.Make a photograph of any unique site feature that VSAT design engineers need to be aware of when producing the site installation kit. Attach an explanation of what is illustrated to each such photograph. 1.7.2 Toward Satellite.Make a series of overlapping photographs of the horizon viewed from the antenna location. Start at 90 degrees azimuth and sweep toward the equator to 270 degrees. Note the approximate azimuth angle toward each potential obstruction (measure with compass), record its approximate maximum elevation angle (measure with inclinometer) and provide a brief physical description: Please attach the photographs and catalogue them below: Approx. azimuth Approx. elevation Description (use additional sheets as necessary) 1.8 ACTIONS List the actions required for site preparation. (Use additional sheet if necessary) -8-
