Mounting the V200s

Continued

Power/data

cable

considerations

continued

The following table lists the steps to connect the power/data cable to

your V200s.

Table 2-1: Connect Power/Data Cable

Step

Action

Align the cable connector key-way with the V200s connector

key.

Rotate the cable ring clockwise until it locks. The locking

action is firm; you will feel a positive “click” when it has

locked.

Mounting
options

The V200s offers four different mounting options:

•

Bottom-up Surface Mounting for straight cable

•

Top-down Surface Mounting for straight cable

•

Top-down Surface Mounting for right-angle cable

•

Pole Mounting

Note:

Hemisphere GNSS does not supply mounting surface hardware or a

mounting pole. You must supply the appropriate mounting hardware

required to complete V200s installation.
