SeeGull MX Scanning Receiver.
3.1.
Integration
There are four (4) mounting holes (4-40
screw) on the chassis of the unit that are used
for mounting
in the user’s enclosure/rack.
Avoid obstructing airways when mounting this
unit in a system enclosure, rack, or case.
Unobstructed convection airflow is
recommended.

Setup
Follow the steps below to connect the unit
to the host PC and power source before
collecting data. See
Figure 7
for the
locations of connections and switches on
the front of the SeeGull MX.
1. Connect the antennas to the SMA
RF connectors on the unit. The
antenna ports RF1 to RF4 (or RF1
to RF6 or RF8 for MIMO-enabled
units) on the label (in
show the frequencies supported
on each RF port. The frequency
range of the antenna must include
the frequency band of the RF port
to which it is connected. For
example,
the “RF4” box on the
label in
700 ABC bands (where “L” stands
for Lower).
Connect PCTEL’s 698-
3000 or 3800 MHz antennas to
this port (for outdoor use).
Note:
Do not obstruct air intakes or exhaust
on unit. Do not place the unit intakes next to
the exhaust of another heat source.
