Do not carry out any installation or maintenance work on the antenna system or cabling when there is a potential risk of lightning. Surge Voltage Protector Due to extremely high currents associated with lightning no surge protection device can provide absolute safety from the impacts caused by lightning!

The GNS-UC unit has a special receiver concept which is able to capture GPS and Galileo signals using a standard Meinberg antenna/converter unit. The configuration supports to select one of these to be used exclusively or the combination of the sources.
2 Meinberg GPS Antenna/Converter Unit 2.2 Mounting the GPS Antenna The GPS satellites are not stationary, but circle round the globe with a period of about 12 hours. They can only be received if no building is in the line-of-sight from the antenna to the satellite, so the antenna/downconverter unit must be installed in a location that has as clear a view of the sky as possible.
In case of an antenna line short-circuit the following message appears in the display: If this message appears the clock has to be disconnected from the mains and the defect eliminated. After that the clock can be powered-up again. The antenna supply voltage must be 15V Date: 18th December 2018 GPSANT...
2 Meinberg GPS Antenna/Converter Unit 2.2.3 Antenna Assembly with Surge Voltage Protection Optional a surge voltage protector for coaxial lines is available. The shield has to be connected to earth as short as possible by using the included mounting bracket. Normally you connect the antenna converter directly with the antenna cable to the system.

10MHz reference clock, coming from the GOAL/R, is received within a sufficient signal strength and therefore the FO link is working. The GOAL system is suitable for all Meinberg GPS receivers (except GPS166!), also for the later exten- sion of existing systems. When using the GOAL system together with the GPS signal converter GPSGEN1575...
