I am not aware there is actually tool for align Sextants. We do it by signal strength and bandwidth.

For the alignment of the sextant did you best 2 Persons.
One person on site A the second person on site B
Person 1 align the sextant until the best signal than person 2 align the sextant to the best signal.
Repeat this procedure until you have the best signal.
This is the best way to align a antenna
