Magnetic Mount Solution (optional)
Overview
We recommend mounting the terminal with bolts through the roof instead of using
magnets. However, a Magnetic Mount Solution for use in temporary installations is available
from Cobham SATCOM (order number 403723A-009).
The Magnetic Mount Solution consists of 3 individual high intensity magnets with rubber
coating. You can place the EXPLORER 323 directly on the roof of the vehicle using these
magnets.
To install the terminal with the Magnetic Mount Solution
To mount the magnets on the EXPLORER 323, do as follows:
1. Remove the 3 external plastic spacers and mount the magnetic feet in the 3 threaded
holes as described in the installation guide included with the Magnetic Mount Solution.
2. Make sure the mounting place on the roof of the vehicle is level and made of a
magnetizable material.
3. Wipe the surface clean before you place the terminal on the roof, in order to make a better
connection between the magnets and the roof and to avoid scratches in the surface.
4. Place the terminal with magnets carefully on the roof of the vehicle.
5. Connect the cable from the terminal to power and LAN equipment (if used).
Refer to To connect cables on page 11.
To detach the terminal
Grab the terminal near one of the magnets and lift it. When one magnet is off, the other two
are easier to detach.
CAUTION! Refer to the Safety summary on page ii before using the
Magnetic Mount Solution.
CAUTION! Do not place your fingers underneath the terminal when you
place the terminal on the vehicle!
The magnetic force is very powerful and your fingers may be hurt if they are
caught between the terminal and the mounting surface.
