tilt Compensation module installation
mount the tilt Compensation module as close to the center of the vehicle
•
side as possible.
mount the module on a plain parallel to the gPS antenna so that both the
•
antenna and the sensor tilt the same degree.
mount the module so the sensor is level and the connector is pointing
•
upward.
the module should be mounted rigidly to minimize vibration. Vibration will
•
degrade the ability to sense tilt.
it is recommended that nuts and bolts be used or self-tapping screws be
•
used through the two mounting holes on each end of the module.
the arrow on the module decal must be pointing toward the front of the
•
vehicle.
do Not mount the module near extreme temperatures, upside down, or
•
on its side.
guidance information is affected when the vehicle experiences a sideways tilt. For
example, if the gPS sensor is 12 feet (3.65 meters) above the ground, a 10 degree
tilt gives a 2 foot (0.61 meter) positioning error.
