5. Magnetic Mounting
Check that the vehicle has a steel roof as the mount will not work on plastic or alloy bodies. The mount has a scratch resistant pad which is suitable for
direct contact with the roof. No other material should be placed under the antenna base as this will reduce the magnetic adhesion. Make sure that the
selected mounting surface is clean and dry before placing the antenna in position.
IMPORTANT: Never attempt to detach, reposition or transport the antenna using only the cable as this may damage the cable connection.
6. Routing and terminating coaxial cables
Route the coaxial cable to the equipment, ensuring that the cable is secured and protected from subsequent damage during access. The cable should be
routed observing the minimum bend radius of 13mm (1/2"). If cable ties are used, they should not be overtightened, as this could distort the cable profile
and affect the antenna performance.
7. Commission and Test
● Check the GPS cable with DC to measure high resistance.
● Connect the GPS cable to the GPS receiver and check for satellite acquisition.
8. Notices
DO NOT
• operate the equipment in an explosive atmosphere.
• attempt to install the antennas without the proper safe equipment to access the install location.
• install the antenna in such a way that it may fall and cause injury.
• chew parts or put them in mouth, keep away from unsupervised children.
