3. Installation

Proper installation of the GNSS antenna is critical for the accurate operation of your Navimow robotic mower. The extension cable allows for flexible placement to achieve an optimal, unobstructed view of the sky.

3.1 General Guidelines

• Ensure the antenna is pointing upwards and has a 110° view of the sky.
• The overall antenna extension must not exceed 1181.1 inches (30 meters). Exceeding this limit may lead to a weak signal and impaired mower performance.

3.2 Installing the GNSS Antenna on a Wall or Roof

For detailed visual instructions on mounting the GNSS antenna on a wall or roof, please refer to the video below:

Key steps from the video:

1. Unpack the antenna extension kit.
2. Assemble the antenna and the pole.
3. Mount the antenna assembly on the chosen wall or roof location, ensuring it has a clear 110° view of the sky.
4. Secure the base using appropriate fasteners.
5. Connect the extension cable to the antenna and route it to the charging station.

Caution: When mounting the antenna on a roof, exercise extreme care and consider contacting a technical support personnel if needed for safety.

3.3 Installing the GNSS Antenna on the Ground

For detailed visual instructions on installing the GNSS antenna on the ground, please refer to the video below:

Key steps from the video:

1. Bring the antenna kit to the desired location.
2. Assemble the antenna kit according to the Quick Start Guide.
3. Ensure the ground is flat and free of barriers or obstacles. Leave an empty space of a 2-meter radius minimum around the antenna.
4. Place the charging station on the lawn.
5. Connect the antenna cable and the power supply cable tightly to the charging station.
6. Use the extension cable to place the antenna somewhere unobstructed and with a broader view (within 30 meters of the charging station).
7. Plug in the power supply.
8. If the GPS signal is stable, the lights on the charging station and the mower will turn green (or blue if the mower is not on the charging station).
9. Anchor the charging station to the ground using the provided Allen wrench and screws.

4. Operating Instructions

Once the antenna extension cable and GNSS antenna are properly installed and connected, your Navimow robotic mower will utilize the enhanced signal for navigation. No specific operating steps are required for the cable itself beyond ensuring a secure and stable connection.

• Ensure all connections are tight and free from damage.
• Avoid placing heavy objects on the cable or bending it sharply, as this can damage the internal wiring.

5. Maintenance

Regular inspection of the antenna extension cable can help prolong its lifespan and ensure consistent performance of your Navimow system.

• Visual Inspection: Periodically check the entire length of the cable for any signs of wear, cuts, kinks, or damage.
• Connection Check: Ensure that the connectors at both ends of the cable (to the antenna and the charging station) remain securely fastened.
• Cleaning: If the cable becomes dirty, gently wipe it with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Environmental Protection: While the cable is designed for outdoor use, extreme weather conditions (e.g., severe storms, prolonged freezing temperatures) may warrant additional protection or temporary relocation if possible.

6. Troubleshooting

If you experience issues with your Navimow robotic mower's navigation after installing the extension cable, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• Weak Signal: If the mower reports a weak GNSS signal, verify that the total length of the antenna extension does not exceed 1181.1 inches (30 meters). Excessive length can degrade signal quality.
• Antenna Placement: Confirm that the GNSS antenna has a clear, unobstructed 110° view of the sky. Relocate the antenna if necessary to avoid interference from trees, buildings, or other tall structures.
• Cable Connections: Double-check all cable connections to ensure they are tight and properly seated. A loose connection can interrupt the signal.
• Cable Damage: Inspect the extension cable for any visible damage. A damaged cable may need to be replaced.
• Mower Status: Refer to your Navimow robotic mower's main user manual or app for specific error codes or diagnostic information related to GNSS signal.
