7 ANTENNAS

Two different antennas are available for the Location Sensor. The standard

antenna is the All Weather Omni AK-210-10, which can be bolted directly to

the Location Sensor housing. The Office Omni AK-110-10 is available for

indoor only installations where appearance critical. See WhereLAN

Placement Guide D0406 and WhereLAN III Instillers Guide D1677, for more

details on Antenna and Placement

7.1 Vertical Diversity Mounting

For outdoor installation requiring the maximum location accuracy and

consistency, the use of vertical diversity for antenna placement should be

implemented. Installations such as Yard Sites and Marine Terminal Sites will

require that vertical diversity be installed. ZES offers three different vertical

diversity cable kits for installation.

For all installation it is recommended that

the Right antenna be higher than the Left Antenna. Consult instruction sheet

included in each kit and WhereLAN III Installation Guide D1677 for further

installation information.
