1. MOUNTING NOTICE Do not apply paint, anti-corrosive sealant or contact spray to coating or plastic parts of the equipment. Those items contain organic solvents that can damage coating and plastic parts, especially plastic connectors. 1.1 How to Install the Antenna Unit(s) 1.1.1 Mounting considerations for all antenna units When selecting a mounting location for the antenna, keep in mind the following points. • Select a location out of the radar beam.
1. MOUNTING 1.1.2 GPS/VHF combined antenna (GVA-100-T) Install the combined antenna unit referring to the outline drawing. When selecting a mounting location for the antenna, keep in mind the following points. • Select a location out of the radar beam. The radar beam will obstruct or prevent reception of the GPS satellite signal. • There should be no interfering object within the line-of-sight to the satellites.
1. MOUNTING Whip antenna fixture Loosen four screws. (M5x16) Antenna fixing bracket Combined box Bottom cover GPS/VHF Combined antenna The antenna flange should be placed at the top of the stanchion to prevent the antenna from slipping down the stanchion. Stanchion How to install distributor unit DB-1 The length of the cable between the distributor unit and transponder unit is 1 m so locate the distributor unit within 1 m from the transponder unit.
1. MOUNTING 1.1.3 GPS antenna unit (GPA-017S) Install the GPS antenna unit referring to the outline drawing at the back of this manual. When selecting a mounting location for the antenna, keep in mind the following points. • Select a location out of the radar beam.
