The location mounting example includes a description for the horizontal and vertical position of the
sensor location.
i) At 0-degree vertical angular rotation (no upward or downward tilt)
Horizontal Translation: Restriction is dependent on length of CAN cable. Note that the sensor data
will be with respect to the sensor and not the vehicle center.
Horizontal Rotation: Should be rotated less than 30 degrees in either direction from the intended
location of maximum power.
Vertical Translation: 0.3m - 3.0m above ground level.
Vertical Rotation: 0 degrees.
In the diagram above the mounting tolerance of the sensor is provided. With no vertical rotation, the
sensor can be placed from 0.3m to 3.0m above the ground and has full operation in the horizontal
plane. The sensor can also be rotated on the horizontal plane but should be within 30 degrees of
intended location of interest to ensure that maximum power is directed towards to region of interest.
ii) With angular rotation (with an upwards or downward tilt)
Horizontal Translation: Restriction is dependent on length of CAN cable. Note that the sensor data
will be with respect to the sensor and not the vehicle center.
Horizontal Rotation: Should be rotated less than 30 degrees in either direction from the intended
location of maximum power.
Vertical Translation: Maximum installation height can be up to 50m (recommended 0 to 15m).
Vertical Rotation: Rotation should depend on the intended location of maximum power and should be
calculated with respect to the height the sensor is positioned at.
