Maretron gps200 Manuale Utente

 

1.  Level with the earth’s horizontal plane – This gives the GPS200 antenna the optimal view 

of satellites from all directions.  

2.  High Enough to have a clear view of the sky to the horizon in all directions unblocked by 

masts or antennas – The GPS200 provides the best readings when it has access to as 
many satellites as possible. 

3.  As far as possible from VHF, satellite, or radar antennas – Radio frequency transmissions 

from these antennas can interfere with the proper reception of GPS satellite signals by the 
GPS200. 
 

The Maretron GPS200 can be mounted directly on top of a horizontal surface (Section 2.3.1) 
or on top of a 1” 14 threads per inch standard marine pole mount (Section 2.3.2). 
 

Attach the GPS200 securely to the vessel using the included brass mounting screws and 
included lock washers or other fasteners as shown in Figure 1 (see mounting template in 
Section 8 for drill pattern). Do not use threadlocking compounds containing methacrylate ester, 
such as Loctite Red (271), as they will cause stress cracking of the plastic enclosure.
