Connecting iGPS
When installing the iGPS module on the Falcon F5 receiver, angle the module down and seat the front on the

iGPS Module
If the connectors on the iGPS module or receiver are wet prior to installation, proper power-on
may not occur. Gently dry the connectors before connecting the module, after which it will
perform well even when exposed to rain.
GNSS Signal Quality
Reception of signals from GNSS satellites requires an open view of the sky. The more satellites the iGPS
module can receive signals from, the more accurately it can determine its position. Signal strength and
quality will be reduced if obstructed by trees, buildings, rugged terrain, or inclement weather.
There are four LED lights at the front of the iGPS module. The leftmost light, when it is blue, indicates the
module is powered. If the blue changes to green, the iGPS is receiving corrections from an SBAS satellite
that provides additional accuracy.
