Q - Does it matter where I mount the Seres antenna?
A - Yes, as the main consideration is that it must have an open hemisphere
of sky for satellite tracking. Additionally, the position that it computes is
reference to the center of the antenna. It should be placed in the location
for which you would like a position. Often, this is the center line of a
vehicle or on a pole-mount for georeferencing.
Q - Will the method of mounting the Seres (magnetic mount, surface
mount, or the pole mount) affect Seres performance?
A – No, all methods of mounting the Seres are equally suited for its use.
Q - Can I use a vehicle’s power system to operate the Seres or do I need a
dedicated battery?
A - Yes you can - the internal power supply of the Seres is designed for use
with industrial vehicles.
