Troubleshooting

If GNSS data does not appear, or if the receiver responds as though the iGPS module is not connected, try
one of the following:

l

Remove the iGPS module, wait five seconds, then re-install it.

l

Remove the iGPS module, dry the contacts on both the module and receiver, and re-install it.

l

Restart the receiver.

In most cases, restarting the receiver with the iGPS module connected will correct connectivity issues.
