Answer is both - it was able to be fired from the carriage, but was supposed to be used portee. As far as I can find out the only time it was used it fired mounted, but the idea was to carry the guns across the shelled area to give continuous artillery support. Most use was as supply carriers, since the vehicle was somewhat underpowered and unreliable.
