Refer to OEM6 Family Installation and Operation User Manual (OM-20000128) for installation instructions and technical specifications for the OEM6 family cards.
NovAtel recommends tying floating input lines to ground.
SETTING UP AN OEM6 FAMILY CARD
Complete the following steps below to connect and power the OEM6 family card.
When installing cards, ensure all standoffs are properly installed and the mounting location is level. The amount of board deflection (bow and twist) must not exceed
0.75%. For example, on the OEM615 which is 71 mm long and 46 mm wide, the deflection along the length must not exceed 0.53 mm and the deflection along the width must not exceed 0.34 mm.
1. Install the OEM6 family card and the wiring harness in a secure enclosure to reduce environmental exposure, RF interference, and protect against ESD.
