4 Before Installation of AirHarmony-1000
Prior to installation of the AirHarmony either on a pole or a wall the GPS antenna should be
connected and the all antenna connections should be weather-proofed.
4.1 Connection of GPS Antenna
The following defines the connection of the GPS antenna which is installed directly to the top of the
unit.
1. Remove the protective dust cap from the GPS antenna jack prior to mounting on the
AirHarmony-1000.
2. Align the GPS jack with the plug attached to the top panel on the AirHarmony-1000.
3. Attach the GPS antenna to the TNC connector on the unit.

Caution: Take care not to over tighten so as not to damage the threads.
Note: It is good practice to weather-proof the antenna connections both the GPS connection and
the RF connections.
4.2 Weather-proofing of the Antenna Connections
Weather-proofing of all the connections is required. This is done with a layer of self-amalgamating
tape followed by an over layer of PVC tape. The weather-proofing is best done at this stage to give
easier access to the connections.
Note: It is good practice to weather-proof the antenna connections both the GPS connection and
the RF connections.
The RF connectors on the Front Mount Antenna variant arrive pre-connected. Weather-proofing is
best done at this stage to give easier access to the connections.
1. Verify a secure connection of the RF cable between the antenna and the appropriate RF
connection on the top of the unit.
