2.1 Installing the Sensor Unit
2.1.1 Tips on Locating the Sensor
The sensor is designed to receive the signals emitted from the satellites
in a direct path. Ideally, the antenna unit should be mounted vertically in
a location that is open and clear of any masts, search lights, or other
structures that could block the line-of-sight reception of the antenna unit.
The height of the GPS sensor is not as important as the sensor having a
clear view horizon to horizon for ideal signal reception. In fact, the lower
the antenna can be mounted and have a clear view to satellites, the
better. The more stable the antenna, the easier it is to track satellites
lower to the horizon. On sailboats, mounting the GPS to mast tops
should generally be avoided.
The GPS sensor should be separated by at least 3 ft (1m) from other
communication antennas and should not be mounted in the direct path
of the radar’s antenna beam.
While planning the location for the sensor, consider finding a convenient
pathway for running the interconnecting cable which will connect the
GPS sensor to the GPS display unit. Ideally the cable should be run in a
manner so it can be hidden from view and, if possible, be in a direct path
