Environmental
considerations
Hemisphere Vector Smart Antennas are designed to withstand harsh
environmental conditions; however, adhere to the following limits when
storing and using the V200s:
•
Operating temperature: -30°C to +70°C (-22°F to +158°F)
•
Storage temperature: -40°C to +85°C (-40°F to +185°F)
•
Humidity: 95% non-condensing
Mounting
orientation
The V200s outputs heading, pitch, and roll readings regardless of the
orientation of the antennas. The relation of the antennas to the vessel’s
axis determines if you need to enter a heading, pitch, or roll bias. The
primary antenna is used for positioning and the primary and secondary
antennas, working in conjunction, output heading, pitch, and roll values.
The top of the V200s enclosure incorporates a sight design feature to help you
align the enclosure on your vessel. Alignment accuracy is
approxi/- 2°.

Note:
Regardless of which mounting orientation you use, the V200s
provides the ability to output the heave of the vessel. This output is
available via the $GPHEV message. For more information on this message
refer to the
Hemisphere GNSS Technical Reference Manual
