500S™ MOUNTING
This section provides information on 500S™ antenna mounting locations and
options.
SELECTING THE PROPER ANTENNA LOCATION
Proper antenna placement is critical to positioning accuracy.
To select the proper antenna location:
• Place the antenna with an unobstructed view of the sky. An obstructed view of the
sky may impair system performance.
• The GNSS engine computes a position based on measurement from each
satellite to the internal GSS receiver.
• Mount the antenna on or close to the center of your point of measurement.
• Ideal antenna placement on a vehicle is the center of the cab roof assuming
there is a clear view of the sky.
• If possible, keep other antennas at least 91 cm (3’) away from the 500S™ receiver.
• Position the antenna as high as possible.
Port/Connection Description
Mounting Holes
Four off-set mounting holes. Two adapters are
shipped with the antenna as a single mounting kit.
