INTRODUCTION
Veronte T28 is a high-performance tracking antenna specifically designed for most demanding applications. The T28
includes directional and omnidirectional antennas in the tracking antenna system. Both antennas are used to obtain
the best operational performance. The omnidirectional antenna is used for short-range operations and the directional
one for tracking the vehicle when it operates at high distances, so the T28 points to the aircraft in real-time movement,
operating at long range and not moving at short range.
The system can install any directional antenna for maximizing system operation capabilities. Embedded control
actuators and installed encoders permits to automatically point the antenna with unique precision. Height and
orientation given to the antenna makes the device perfect for long range operations.

T28, Release 2.5
Suitable for: UAVs, UASs, RPASs, UGVs, USVs and any other moving systems.
The platform is prepared to install different kind of antennas for video and data-link communications. Patch, yagi and
parabolic grid antennas can be used within the system for best operational performance. Tripod is also interchangeable
and custom tripods can be adapted.

QUICK START
2.1 ON/OFF
First of all, it is necessary to connect the PCS Harness to the PCS itslef. Then, by pressing the switch of the PCS
Harness for 2 sec the system will turn on and the light will shine blue.
Fig. 1: On / off switch
To turn T28 off, the button shall be pressed for 2 sec (until the blue light turns off).
The button delay is implemented to avoid unwished disconnections.
Warning: Do not forget to turn off the system after use.

2.2 T28 Placement
•Make sure T28 is placed in an open area to avoid screening, reflection and interference due to terrain or landscape
elements.
•Make sure there is clearance around the antenna movement radius.
•Lay cables away from traverse areas.
2.3 Warnings
•Make sure not to put people or objects in the radius of movement of the antenna, it may cause damage.
•The distance between T28 and other radio modules must be at least 5m to establish communications
•Guarantee that no obstacles will interrupt the LOS (Line Of Sight) radiolink.
•Do not break warranty seals. Please contact Embention’s support team before doing it.
•Keep the PCS in a position where the GPS antenna is facing to the free sky for a better satellite view.
•Avoid shocks during transportation or operation, some of the components could suffer damage.
•Polarizacion can be horizontal or vertical and it is aligned with the direction of the antenna. The polarization of
T28 antenna should be the same as the polarization of the receiver, then adjust the T28 antenna according to its
corresponding polarization direction.
Warning: Do not forget to connect RF antennas before powering up!!!!
2.4 Requirements
•Personal computer.
•Control station: Veronte PCS.
•Software: depending on the PCS employed.
– Veronte Pipe for PCS with version 6.4 or lower.
– Veronte Link,1x PDI Builder and Veronte Ops for PCS with version 6.8 or higher.
