SLINGSHOT INSTALLATION
If a SlingShot modem is used, in addition to the GPS-
antenna, two GPRS / UMTS antennas and a GPS patch
should be mounted.
The GPRS / UMTS-antennas should be mounted at
least 100 cm of each other (like the CNH antenna-
bracket in Figure 41). If a standard GPS-antenna
bracket is mounted, one of the GPRS / UMTS-antennas
should be mounted on this bracket (Figure 40). The
second GPRS / UMTS-antenna should be mounted on
a metal bracket on the cabin (Figure 42).
It is important that the following conditions are met at
all times:
The GPRS/UMTS antenna is equipped with a
magnetic base and must be placed on top of
the cabin.
The antenna should have a clear reception all
round.
Label the antenna cables inside the cabin with
labels ‘Cellular’ and ‘Diversity’ (Figure 43).
Mount a grey SMA grip on both connectors
(Figure 43).
When using a SlingShot modem also a GPS Patch
antenna should be mounted (Figure 42). The GPS
Patch antenna is magnetic. Mount the GPS Patch
antenna always on the roof of the cabin. Be careful
with mounting the GPS patch antenna; the GPS patch
antenna cable is quite thin and fragile. Label the GPS
Patch antenna cable inside the cabin with label ‘GPS’
and mount a blue SMA grip to the connector (Figure
43).
Connect the power cable to the connector with label
‘’Slingshot PWR’’ and connect the RTK IN/GPS OUT
connectors with each other. Connect the Serial RTK IN
with the Slingshot and connect the Ethernet cable
between the SlingShot and the CR7.
