Features

The BAS 60 is designed for satellite reception from mobile locations, i.e. stationary caravans, motorhomes, HGVs or non-commercial 

boats on inland waterways. The arrangement for attaching the antenna is compatible with the jointed tripod masts HDM 140, HDM 141 

and HDM 143 (Fig. 1), which allows the antenna to be rotated and aligned by crank and mast rotation from within the vehicle. Alterna-

tively the antenna can be installed in combination with the HDP 600 turntable (Fig. 2). This option allows fully automatic alignment of 

the antenna. Installation of the BAS 60 on the turntable is described in the HDP 600 installation manual.

Any other use, or failure to comply with these user instructions and the documentation and instructions accompanying the 

equipment, will result in voiding of warranty cover.

The following circumstances result in the loss of all warranty and liability claims towards the manufacturer:
-  Improper installation

-  Use of non-specifi ed mounting materials, which cannot guarantee the mechanical reliability of the antenna system

-  Non-permissible use, e.g. use of the planar antenna for storage
-  Structural changes or interference with the components and mounting accessories in the set, which could endanger both the me-

chanical and functional reliability

-  Forced opening of the antenna (can produce function failure)
-  Use of cleaners containing solvents, such as acetone, nitro-cellulose combination thinners, petrol etc.
-  Failure to observe further instructions in this manual

Proper use (designated use)

The applicable regulations of the StVZO must be observed in respect of fi  xed installation of the turntable on a vehicle which is driven 

on public highways. IIn particular, §§ 19/2; 30 C; 32 (2) and the EC directive 74/483 EEC are applicable. Briefl  y, they state that no 

endorsement of the vehicle documentation is required unless the antenna unit causes the height of the laden vehicle to exceed 2 m, or 

the antenna unit projects beyond the outer lateral outline of the vehicle. The maximum permissible height of 4 m (vehicle and antenna 

unit) may not be exceeded.
