If the Event Log tabs in all connected modules contain Loss of GPS Sync Pulse messages, perform the following steps.
Troubleshooting CMM4 not passing sync
1 |
Verify that the GPS antenna has an unobstructed view of the entire horizon. |
2 |
Verify that the GPS coaxial cable meets specifications. |
3 |
Verify that the GPS sync cable meets specifications for wiring and length. |
4 |
If the web pages of connected modules indicate any of the following, then find and eliminate the source of noise that is being coupled into the GPS sync cable: · In the GPS Status page: o anomalous number of Satellites Tracked (greater than 12, for example) o incorrect reported Latitude and/or Longitude of the antenna · In the Event Log page: o garbled GPS messages o large number of Acquired GPS Sync Pulse messages GPS signal acquisition must not take longer than 5 minutes from unit startup. |
