Applicable to: LUBA 2 AWD, LUBA 3 AWD, LUBA mini AWD, LUBA mini 2 AWD
Choosing the location
- The antenna needs a clear view of the sky – no direct line of sight to the robot required
- Choose a firm, stable surface for the mast
- Avoid locations near metal structures or buildings that could interfere with the signal
- Optimal field of view: 120 degrees
- Connection range: up to 5 km
Consider the height
- Higher is not automatically better
- The higher the antenna, the greater the lightning strike risk
- Choose a practical height that makes dismantling and reassembly for winter storage easier
Installation – step by step
- Insert the antenna mast into the ground or secure it to a suitable support
- Mount the RTK unit onto the mast
- Align the antenna so it has a clear view of the sky
- The integrated solar panel powers the antenna – no cable required
- Connect the antenna to your robot via the app
Important: Do not move the RTK antenna after mapping. If you move it, the map must be recreated.
