3. Configuració

1. Lloc de muntatge: Seleccioneu una ubicació de muntatge que proporcioni una vista clara i sense obstacles view of the sky. Avoid areas with potential signal interference from electronic devices, metal structures, or dense foliage. For optimal RTK performance, ensure the antenna is stable and free from vibrations.
2. Connexió: Connect the MCX-JW20cm connector of the antenna cable to the corresponding MCX input port on your compatible GNSS receiver. Ensure the connection is secure to prevent signal loss.
3. Potència: This is a passive antenna and typically draws power directly from the connected GNSS receiver. Verify that your receiver is configured to supply the necessary power to the antenna.
4. Orientació: For most applications, the antenna should be mounted with the ceramic element facing upwards towards the sky.

4. Instruccions de funcionament

1. Encès: Once the antenna is securely connected to your GNSS receiver, power on the receiver according to its specific instructions.
2. Adquisició del senyal: Allow the GNSS receiver sufficient time to acquire satellite signals. The time required for initial fix can vary depending on environmental conditions and the receiver's capabilities.
3. Monitoritzar el rendiment: Use your GNSS receiver's software or interface to monitor signal strength, satellite visibility, and positioning accuracy. Ensure that the antenna is receiving signals from all supported constellations for optimal performance.
4. Consideracions ambientals: While the antenna is designed for outdoor use, extreme weather conditions (heavy rain, snow, ice) can temporarily affect signal reception. Ensure the antenna is not submerged in water.

5. Manteniment

• Neteja: Periodically inspect the antenna for dirt, dust, or debris. Gently clean the ceramic element and housing with a soft, damp tela. Eviteu utilitzar productes químics o materials abrasius.
• Inspecció del cable: Regularly check the antenna cable and connector for any signs of wear, cuts, or damage. A damaged cable can lead to signal degradation or complete loss.
• Protecció del medi ambient: While robust, avoid exposing the antenna to prolonged periods of extreme temperatures or direct impact.

6. Solució De Problemes

• No Signal or Poor Signal:
  • Verify that the antenna cable is securely connected to the GNSS receiver.
  • Ensure the antenna has a clear, unobstructed view of the sky. Move away from buildings, trees, or other obstacles.
  • Check for potential sources of electromagnetic interference (EMI) near the antenna.
  • Confirm that the GNSS receiver is providing power to the antenna.
• Posicionament incorrecte:
  • Ensure the antenna is mounted stably and not subject to movement or vibration.
  • Check for multi-path interference, which occurs when signals reflect off nearby surfaces. Try relocating the antenna.
  • Verify that your GNSS receiver's firmware is up to date.
• Danys físics: If the antenna or cable is physically damaged, it may require replacement.
