4.3 Mounting the SNR900 on a Machine
When mounting the SNR900 on a machine consider the following:
– Reduce damage by minimizing shock and vibration to the
SNR900: Mount the radio-modem on a solid part of the
cab.
– Locate the best antenna position: Mount the entire antenna
above the roofline so that it has an uninterrupted view. This
improves the performance of the SNR900.
– Prevent signal interference: Position the antenna away
from other antennas (particularly if the other antenna is a
two-way radio), rotating beacons and strobe lights.
Figure 4.4 shows a typical installation.
