Chapter 6: Configuration and Testing
• GPS Operating OK is YES
The GPS LED will flash satellite tracking commences and will be fully on, once GPS is fully trained.
If satellite tracking is NOT ADEQUATE, make sure:
• The GPS receiver has been allowed enough time to locate the satellites (in extreme cases this may
take up to 2 hours).
• The GPS antenna cable is properly connected. If it is not, reconnect the cable properly and then
reset the Site Controller. If cable is found to be properly connected, the GPS antenna is possibly
faulty.
See MTS Troubleshooting on page 345
CAUTION: Do not attempt to make a resistance check of the GPS antenna. Damage to the
active devices within the antenna element may result.
