Mounting Options
You can mount the antennas with a magnetic mount, pole mount, or rail mount
configuration. You can secure the antennas to a threaded pole or threaded mount
using the included mounting adapters.
Depending on the antennas included in your kit, you may need to use the included
antenna height adapters to bring the antennas level. If the adapter is not used, you
will need to enter a non-level bias calculation into the system (see “Q: I could not
install my antennas at the same height. How do I calibrate for the height offset?” on
page 47 of Appendix B, “FAQ.”)
The maximum allowable antenna separation is 10.0 m. Any greater
distance may result in an incorrect heading.
