6. Interface
The antenna has the following interfaces:
6.1 ON/OFF switch
The ON/OFF switch is used to turn the antenna on and off.
However, it is only in use if the power source of the antenna is the battery, please see chapter
5 for power options. If the power comes from the charger or the DC-feeder, the antenna will
be on regardless of the position of the ON/OFF switch.
The primary purpose of the ON/OFF switch is to avoid battery discharge, if the antenna is not
being used.
