GPS Settings
The Base Station is set up by default, to operate with GPS. This section provides instructions on
disabling the GPS for troubleshooting purposes or for lab operation conditions.
To access the GPS Info and Settings pane
1. Click the Admin menu option and then the GPS sub-menu option. From the GPS sub-menus
choose Info and Settings. The GPS Info and Settings pane is displayed.
2. To disable (or re-enable) the GPS, set the GPS HW Support mode and click Apply:
•
OFF - used in special cases. System does not attempt to synchronize with GPS. For
example, for maintenance, or installations with a single Base Station. Or in cases where
GPS is not relevant and we do not want device to continuously attempt to synchronize.
•
ON – normal operation.
3. To troubleshoot or for maintenance, use the Link State option – used for troubleshooting or
for turning off Tx during maintenance. (Values: Stop, Start, Auto)
•
Auto – Default. Transmission is codependent on GPS and cannot be interrupted. Tx is
stopped only if GPS is not synchronized (not controlled by user).
•
Start and Stop – used to start and stop Tx.
4. Set the GPS Stop Tx mode - Determine if the Base Station will continue transmitting after
hold over.
•
False – off. Default.

True – on. Base Station continues transmitting after hold-over.
