Mounting Location
Illustration 12: GNSS Compass ideal mounting location diagram
The GNSS Compass needs to be mounted in an area with a clear and unobstructed view of the
sky for best results. It should be mounted away from transmitting devices where possible.
Mounting the GNSS Compass close to structures and transmitting devices may degrade heading
performance due to interference.
8.2
Mounting options
The GNSS Compass can either be pole mounted, or surface mounted. See section 7.1 for details
8.2.1
Pole mounting
If pole mounting the unit, connection is via a single 1-14 UNS-2A thread.
8.2.2
Surface mounting
If mounting on a surface, use the 4 x M8 fixing holes as indicated in section 7.1. It is strongly
recommended to use the included shoulder washers to provide a small gap between the GNSS
compass and the mounting surface. This will help protect against warping or cracking of the unit on
slightly uneven surfaces. Note the shoulder washers will require a nominal 10mm hole in the
mounting surface as shown in illustration 13.
