Acutime 2000 Installation

The antenna can receive satellite signals through glass, canvas, and thin fiberglass, but dense wood, concrete and metal structures shield the antenna from satellite signals.

The Acutime 2000 GPS smart antenna contains an active antenna. For optimal performance, place it as far as possible from transmitting antennas, including radars, satellite communication equipment and cellular transmitters. When locating the antenna near a radar installation, ensure that the antenna is positioned outside of the radar’s cone of transmission. When installing the antenna near satellite communication equipment, follow the same guideline. For best results, mount the antenna below and at least ten feet away from satellite communication equipment.

For installations exposed to shock or vibration exceeding the limits specified in Appendix D, Specifications and Drawings, use a mounting scheme that isolates the Acutime 2000 from the excessive shock or vibration.
