4.3 Placing Hardware
4.3.1 Placing the R&S TSMX-PPS2
Standard Navigation (without ADR)
: No strict mounting recommendations. The
device could be positioned anywhere and in any direction (horizontally or vertically)
inside the vehicle or the trunk.
ADR Navigation:
Calculations for ADR are based on quite sensitive and three
dimensional acceleration values. For that reason a strict horizontal mounting position
(with printed, brighter chassis side up) which is fastened tightly with the vehicle chassis
is absolutely important
•
Clean and dry the surface of the mounting position inside the vehicle in a similar
way as done for bonding the Dual Lock Fastener®3M on the device.
•
Remove the protection plastics and press the R&S TSMX-PPS firmly against to
proper mounting position.
•
Allow Dual Lock adhesive to cure for ten hours.
4.3.2 Positioning the Antenna
A magnetic mount antenna is part of the delivery. The antenna should be placed on a
metallic part of the vehicle chassis with free line of sight to the sky.
Without ADR
: For optimum performance, the antenna should be placed in the middle
of the vehicle roof or trunk.
ADR Support:
For an optimum ADR performance the placement of the antenna is
important and depends on the type of vehicle. Please follow these recommendations:
•
Road Vehicle
Antenna:
should be placed above the middle of the
rear (not steered) wheels.
TSMx-PSS2:
should be placed in the front or middle part of
the vehicle
Consider Mounting Requirements for ADR Navigation
Proper mounting position and tight connection with the vehicle chassis is
absolutely necessary when operating the R&S TSMX-PPS2 in “Automotive
Dead Reckoning” mode.
