Importing antenna pattern file

**dacoder** · 2023-07-25, 07:52 PM

I have one antenna pattern that I'm trying to import into Atoll without success. Can someone look into it and help on how can this be imported into Atoll?
Here's the antenna pattern file:

Try to import the attached file directly into the table with Atoll antennas. The pattern is already in Atoll format.

Thanks.. it worked. Is there any tool to do such conversion or do I need to manually edit it? I have more than 20 such patterns that I need to import to atoll

thanks and regards

In order to import a large number of patterns into Atoll at once, use the instructions below

Thanks,
but how did you convert the original antenna file into atoll format? is there any tool?

According to the instructions, I imported it to the Atoll. Then, in the table of antenna patterns in the Atoll, I made an export with a filter for the desired antenna.

When I tried importing the original pattern file in atoll I get the error 'Antenna pattern diagrams are empty; check the choice of fields "Azimuth", "Tilt", and "Attenuation". What changes need to be done in the original pattern file so that it can be imported?

thanks

@dacoder try any2msi You will notice that MSI format is not always the same. ;-) see site groundarc.ru

Hi,
could you share the any2msi tool? The site says its bundled with 'Base Charts' app and isn't available in demo version.

thanks

Hi.
I have an Atoll Antenna pattern provided that is generating errors in the Atoll tool when I import it. I understand the error but am looking for someones help to resolve it.
Attached is the pattern file. The issue is the pattern angles 0-359 are missing for both the horizontal and vertical attenuations. I need a script that can add these in the pattern cell.
Could somebody help.
