ROOF INSTALLATION, continued

GPS installation —

6.Place the unit on the roof in its permanent loca- tion and mark around each base foot, Figure 4. (Make sure the rear adjustable base foot is par- allel to the center line of the coach.)

FIGURE 4

7.Clean roof area where the base feet will be attached to the roof. Do not erase your marks!

8.Put approved sealant in the areas marked for the base feet. Place base feet on top of the sealant and screw down using (2) of the #10 screws (provided) for each foot.

9.Unscrew the locknuts in the base and re- move the base from feet. Secure feet by installing four more #10 screws in each base foot.

10.After all base feet are secured to roof, put sealant around edge of feet and over screws. Replace base on leveling screws and reinstall nut and rubber washer on leveling screw. Do not secure until after leveling (next step).

11. Leveling the base is done by tightening or loos- ening the flange nut under the base, Figure 5.

Using an electronic level is recommended to ad- just base so there is no more than +/- 1° off level in all directions. Place level on base of unit if possible. (If your level will not fit inside the base plate, place on outside edge.) Level front to back and side to side. Raise and lower by adjusting flange nut under base. After leveling base, se- cure inside base with rubber washer, rubber side

down toward base, and lock nut.

The GPS antenna is pre-wired and has a 3 foot cable running through one of the connectors.

When deciding where to place GPS antenna, DO NOT SECURE! After wiring the receiver and initializ- ing your system, you will need to test the system.

Determine location for GPS antenna. It is recom- mended you place the GPS antenna between unit base and side edge of vehicle, 90° from rear mounting bracket, at least 3 feet from dome! Figure 6.

The recommended location for the GPS antenna is based on having a level location and a clear view of the sky. If another location, further from the base, is desired, loosen the connector and pull out additional wire in the base. You must re- wrap and re-tie the GPS cable inside the dome to prevent interference with the LNBF. Failure to do so will result in malfunction! Tighten con- nectors when done.

IMPORTANT! The GPS must be located away from obstructions on roof of vehicle. You must have a clear view of the sky for proper opera- tion.
