Step 4. Connect the GNSS antennas

The MPS566 receiver uses two antennas. All data relating to position references the Position (POS) antenna. The Vector (VECT) antenna is used to provide vector information only, such as the heading and attitude.

Connect the GNSS antenna cable (e.g. P/N 58957‑02) to the TNC connector for antenna 1 and antenna 2 on the receiver back panel. Do not overtighten.

For information about suitable antennas, see GNSS antenna chart.

To configure the antennas, see Antenna Configuration / Position Antenna / Vector Antenna.
