The QC1000 should be installed in the corner of the vehicle, the second QC1000, referred to as a
beacon antenna, should be installed in the opposite corner.
It is necessary to have both antennas as far away as possible but at a minimum of 5 meters.
Beacon Antenna
For vehicles that operate in regions of the mine where more than 30% of the view of the sky is
obstructed, this distance between main and beacon QC1000 shall be increased to 15 meters.
It is essential that both antennas are not obstructed by any part of the vehicle and have a
360° view of the horizon (except for terrain obfuscation).
