Page 109
Grounding the unit (metal mast or ground cable to the unit’s base) is required for the lightning protection to work properly. The ACX500 Timing Server can maintain accurate time even if an antenna is mounted in a location that has limited visibility of GNSS satellites; however, we recommend obstructions should be minimized.
Page 110
ACX500 Universal Access Router Hardware Guide You must mount the antenna above and away from any electrical systems such as lift mechanisms, air handlers, HVACs, and other electrical or mechanical machinery. The GNSS signals can be reflected by objects such as metal, walls, and shielded glass parts.
