INTRODUCTION
The performance of the Model 600-G can be summarized as follows:
WARRANTY POLICY
NovAtel Inc. warrants that its Global Positioning System (GPS) products are free from defects in materials and
workmanship, subject to the conditions set forth below, for the following periods of time:
•
Very good sensitivity to right hand circularly polarized signals over a wide range of
elevations and in all azimuth directions
GPS/GLONASS Antenna Modules One (1) Year
Cables and Accessories
Ninety (90) Days
Date of sale shall mean the date of the invoice to the original customer for the product. NovAtel’s responsibility
respecting this warranty is limited solely to product repair at an authorized NovAtel location only. Determination of
repair will be made by NovAtel personnel or by technical personnel expressly authorized by NovAtel for this purpose.
•
Excellent amplitude radiation pattern roll-off near the horizon, in effect eliminating
multipath-generated replicas of the original line-of-sight (LOS) signal
THE FOREGOING WARRANTIES DO NOT EXTEND TO (I) NONCONFORMITIES, DEFECTS OR ERRORS IN THE PRODUCTS
DUE TO ACCIDENT, ABUSE, MISUSE OR NEGLIGENT USE OF THE PRODUCTS OR USE IN OTHER THAN A NORMAL AND
CUSTOMARY MANNER, ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS NOT CONFORMING TO NOVATEL’S SPECIFICATIONS, OR
FAILURE TO FOLLOW PRESCRIBED INSTALLATION, OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES, (II) DEFECTS,
ERRORS OR NONCONFORMITIES IN THE PRODUCTS DUE TO MODIFICATIONS, ALTERATIONS, ADDITIONS OR CHANGES
NOT MADE IN ACCORDANCE WITH NOVATEL’S SPECIFICATIONS OR AUTHORIZED BY NOVATEL, (III) NORMAL WEAR
AND TEAR, (IV) DAMAGE CAUSED BY FORCE OF NATURE OR ACT OF ANY THIRD PERSON, (V) SHIPPING DAMAGE; OR
(VI) SERVICE OR REPAIR OF PRODUCT BY THE DEALER WITHOUT PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT FROM NOVATEL.

•
Very good axial ratio, thus ensuring that a high quality signal is received
Common location and stable phase center for all four channels (GLONASS and GPS
L1 and L2). The phase center in the x and y-axis is located in the center of the
antenna for all channels due to its inherent symmetry and co-centric type design.
Enhanced immunity against electromagnetic interference
Better radiation “hardening” from lightening or EMP (electromagnetic pulse) effects
High-speed transient voltage suppressor

IN ADDITION, THE FOREGOING WARRANTIES SHALL NOT APPLY TO PRODUCTS DESIGNATED BY NOVATEL AS BETA
SITE TEST SAMPLES, EXPERIMENTAL, DEVELOPMENTAL, PREPRODUCTION, SAMPLE, INCOMPLETE OR OUT OF
SPECIFICATION PRODUCTS OR TO RETURNED PRODUCTS IF THE ORIGINAL IDENTIFICATION MARKS HAVE BEEN
REMOVED OR ALTERED.
Operational temperature range from cold to hot extremes
THE WARRANTIES AND REMEDIES ARE EXCLUSIVE AND ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WRITTEN OR
ORAL, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE
ARE EXCLUDED.
The Model 600-G can be distinguished from other GPS-600 models by its red rim.
DESCRIPTION
NOVATEL SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS, DAMAGE OR EXPENSE ARISING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY OUT OF
THE PURCHASE, INSTALLATION, OPERATION, USE OR LICENSING OR PRODUCTS OR SERVICES. IN NO EVENT SHALL
NOVATEL BE LIABLE FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND OR NATURE
DUE TO ANY CAUSE.
The Model 600-G antenna is an active antenna designed to operate at the GPS and
GLONASS L1 and L2 frequencies. The slot array antenna element is coupled to a low-
noise amplifier (LNA). The unit is optimized to receive right-hand-circularly-polarized
signals. Its radiation pattern is shaped to reduce signals arriving at low elevation angles.
These features decrease the errors associated with electromagnetic interference and
multipath.
There are no user-serviceable parts in the antenna and no maintenance is required. When the GPSCard status code
indicates that the unit is faulty, replace with another unit and return the faulty unit to NovAtel Inc.
You must obtain a RETURN MATERIAL AUTHORIZATION (RMA) number by calling GPS Customer Service at
1-800-280-2242 (North America only) or 403-295-4900 before shipping any product to NovAtel or Dealer.
Once you have obtained an RMA number, you will be advised of proper shipping procedures to return any defective
product. When returning any product to NovAtel, please return the defective product in the original packaging to avoid
ESD and shipping damage.
The Model 600-G antenna is intended for surveying and other kinematic positioning
applications. The sealed radome allows the antenna to be used in severe weather, marine
portability.

To mount the antenna, ensure the adapter is screwed into the antenna base (finger tighten
only). It is best to leave this adapter in at all times as it protects the plastic threads of the
antenna itself. Screw the bottom of the adapter onto a range pole, tribrach, tripod or other
