INSTALLATION
1. Mount the antenna on the centerline of the tallest point of the vehicle (usually on
the top of the vehicle cabin) using the magnetic mount. Make sure that the
antenna has a clear, 360° view of the sky. If the mounting location is non-
magnetic, use a mounting plate to mount the antenna.
2. Route the Power/GPS cable to the back of the field computer and connect it to
the Power/GPS port.
3. Use the provided RAM mount arm to install the field computer inside the cab.
4. For additional cabling and connection assistance, refer to the CR7 and CR12
Installation Guide. Additional system diagrams are available on the Raven
website.

INITIAL SET UP
When starting the system for the first time, a setup wizard will walk you through a
setup process and, if desired, allow you to quickly begin creating guidance lines. This
section covers the first time startup.
IMPORTANT:
Check all measurements before entering values into the field computer and
enter all measurements as accurately as possible. Check that values entered
on the field computer are consistent with measurements.
IMPORTANT:
The CR12 startup wizard will ask for the cable harness type used with the field
computer. The default option is 115-8000-064 and should only be used if the
part number of the cable harness connected to the CRX field computer
matches. If using a different cable, select ”Other” from the drop-down. If
needed, the cable selection can be edited later in the GPS Information tab.
