Eclipse AVN 2227P Installation Manual page 10

1 Choose an installation location on the dashboard which
is flat and has a clear view of the sky.
Tip
• • Select a location that is at least 50 cm. away from the
main unit. If this is not done, the GPS measurement
precision will drop.
• • Be sure to use the earth plate when installing the GPS
antenna. If the earth plate is not used, the reception
sensitivity will drop and will affect the accuracy of the
position measurement.
2 Install the earth plate to the dashboard.
3
Install the GPS antenna to the earth plate.
Tip
If installing the GPS antenna inside the vehicle, the installation location and the shape of the vehicle's body will
determine GPS accuracy. Accuracy is usually lower when the GPS antenna is installed inside the vehicle.
4 Route the GPS antenna cable to the main unit's
installation location.
Tip
Cut the harness affixing tape into usable lengths with scissors. Do the same for the rest of the installation.
