Antenna Settings
This screen allows you to view and change the value settings in
relation to using ike used with an external antenna.
The GPS Antenna Offset is used in conjunction with a fixed-
position external antenna (on a pole or backpack) connected to
the ike units external antenna port.
The ‘Vertical (m):’ value is the distance above the ike unit
that a connected external antenna is located.
The ‘Horizontal (m):’ value is the distance to behind the ike
unit that a connected external antenna is located.
Tapping the [Save] button stores the Vertical and Horizontal
values to memory and adjusts GPS location and Laser range
calculations accordingly.
WARNING!
When an external antenna is not connected to the
ike unit the GPS Antenna Offset Vertical and Horizontal values
should always be saved as 0.00
This example shows an external antenna mounted on a
backpack.
WARNING!
To ensure best accuracy, it is not recommended
that a connected external antenna be secured forward or
beneath the ike unit. The Vertical offset should always be
above the ike unit, and the Horizontal offset should always be
behind the ike unit.
