Installing the GPS Antenna
All models of the 1570 Series support location information when the optional GPS antenna
(AIR-ANT-GPS-1) is installed and connected. The AP has two mounting positions for the GPS antenna,
on the head of the AP and on the back of the AP, which need to be used depending on whether the AP is
horizontally or vertically oriented when deployed (see
).
Note
Ensure that the GPS antenna always has a clear unobstructed view of the sky, for proper functioning.
To install the GPS antenna:
Step 1
Remove the protective cap covering the access point’s GPS antenna connector port.
Step 2
Screw down the GPS antenna connector onto the AP's GPS antenna connector port, just enough so that
it doesn't fall off.
Step 3
If the AP is mounted horizontally, screw down the GPS antenna at the designated spot on the back of the
AP (see
).
If the AP is mounted vertically, screw down the GPS antenna at the designated spot on the head of the
AP (see
).
Step 4
The GPS antenna is fixed to the AP using two M3.5x0.6x8 mm Pan Head Phillips stainless steel screws.
Step 5
Fully tighten the GPS antenna connector onto the access point's GPS antenna connector port.
