6.  The frame front plate [6] can now be attached to the main frame using four M6 × 12 mm button 

head screws.  
 

7.  Attach the base of the RT-XLAN to the antenna through the bracket.  Screw the similar black 

plastic bracket to the front of the front plate.  Lift the hole in the front of the backpack over the 
RT-XLAN bracket and then attach the extension pole to the bracket.  The RT-XLAN [7] should 
be attached to the Base-to-Antenna Extension Pole fixed to the boss on the frame front plate. 
The RT-XLAN can then be height adjusted for maximum performance. 
 

8.  The RT-Backpack is turned on using the toggle switch mounted near the top of the RT sensor.  

NB: this switch is located under the charging point [3].

Configuring the RT-Backpack 

NAVconfig settings 

Some RT models have different options. These are set when the correct model is selected in Step 1 
of NAVconfig (Figure 2). Settings can be prepared in advance as NAVconfig does not require a 
device to be connected.
