14 System Installation, Leica mojoXact Plus
Position of the GPS
antenna The GPS antenna should be mounted on the vehicle’s roof:
• on the center line of the vehicle’s wheel tracks if possible.
• as far forward as possible on the flat level part of the roof.
• not obstructed by exhausts, flashing lights or any other objects.
Find a location that is as close to the front of the vehicle as possible and centered
over the wheel tracks. Mark out this location on the roof of the vehicle.
Optional antenna adapter brackets are available - contact your Dealer for more infor-
mation.
Mount the GPS
antenna To mount the GPS antenna on the vehicle’s roof, carry out the following steps:
1. Use the supplied cleaning wipes to clean the installation area.
This is necessary even when the area has been cleaned with Windex
®
glass
cleaner (as instructed previously) to ensure that the installation area is as clean
as possible.
2. Remove the protective strip of the double-sided tape on the bottom of the GPS
antenna.

Be careful removing the backing tape (protective strip) from the sticking
blocks. Make sure that you peel off the backing tape and do not rip the
adhesive from the antenna.
3. Mount the GPS antenna on the vehicle’s roof.

The GPS antenna should mount with the whip antenna in the forward posi-
tion.
The antenna must be mounted horizontally and not on an angle to ensure
the best possible signal reception.
The cables must not be cut, kinked or bent tightly, as their performance will
be degraded and system failure may result.
Cables should be routed neatly back to the mojoXact Plus.
