INSTALLING THE ANTENNA
After a site has been selected, install the antenna as follows.
1. Verify that the thread on the mount does not extend more than 7/8" (22 mm) to ensure the plastic
inside the antenna receptacle is not damaged when the mount is inserted. If it extends further than 7/8"
(22 mm), add two jam nuts to shorten the exposed thread, ensuring the nuts are well-tightened.
2. Align the mount thread with the metal adapter on the bottom of the antenna and rotate the antenna
clockwise until it is securely screwed to the mount. Using a wrench, tighten the adapter to the mount.
3. Remove the dust cap from the antenna’s connector.
4. Attach the male TNC connector of the coaxial cable to the antenna’s TNC connector.
5. Attach the other end of the coaxial cable to the antenna input port of the receiving device.
The receiving device must provide power as detailed in the
SPECIFICATIONS
section of this guide. All
NovAtel GNSS receivers provide the necessary power through their antenna RF connectors.
ANTENNA CARE
The GPS-704-WB is designed to withstand the elements, including rain, snow and dust. However, to
ensure your antenna performs optimally, keep the radome (the top surface of the antenna) clean and brush
off any ice and snow. In addition, ensure the connector remains clean and dry and replace the dust cap
when a cable is not connected.
The metal adapter on the bottom of the antenna is fixed in place. Do not attempt to remove it.
