structures. It is also very important that the antenna does not move during the test. Ensure the

supplied tripod is stable enough not to move in the wind and that no one can bump into it.

When performing vehicle tests, consider gusts of wind that may be created by passing

vehicles.

Figure 3. 

Choosing a location for the GNSS antenna

Choose a location for the GNSS antenna that is not close to buildings or trees, as these can both affect GNSS

signals. The antenna needs to have a good view of the sky (not just above, but to the sides too).

If you intend to perform a test over several days, and will be packing the base-station away

overnight, it is important to mark the location of the GNSS antenna. It will need to be placed

in precisely the same location on each day. If possible, mount the antenna on a pole that has

been fixed in the ground and can be left behind until the test has finished.

Setting up the tripod and antenna

1. The tripod legs use a friction lock to maintain their position. To extend each leg,

twist each leg axially in an anti-clockwise direction (viewed from below) to

unlock the leg. Ensure each section is re-locked in position by axially twisting it

in a clockwise direction. It doesn't matter how high the GNSS antenna is located,

as long as it has the best possible view of the sky.

2. Carefully remove the GNSS antenna from the GPS-Base case. The antenna is

attached to the tripod via the threaded section. Do not apply excessive force

when tightening the antenna.
