2.4 Mounting the SMS100
The SMS100 may be mounted to a horizontal or a vertical surface; the only requirement is that
the antenna be oriented vertically after the unit is mounted.
The SMS100 may be mounted using the two keyhole screw holes on each end.
To mount, attach the SMS100 securely to the vessel using the included stainless steel
mounting screws or other fasteners as shown in Figure 1. Using the mounting template in
Section 10, drill two holes for the included mounting screws and install the screws, leaving the
head of the screws protruding above the mounting surface. Place the SMS100 over the
mounting screws and slide so that the heads of the mounting screws are over the narrow
portions of the keyhole slots, then tighten the mounting screws until snug.
