Troubleshooting 29
Q: Why did the GPS speed read 0 when I was riding?
This happens when the GPS signal reception is poor and there are not enough
satellites available to provide sufficient GPS positioning data. The GMOS GPS
Core will continue searching for more satellites and will resume its function once
the GPS signal reception improves.
Q: Why was the GPS Antenna Icon not displayed?
When the GPS reception is poor, it might take longer for the GPS Core to find
enough satellites for GPS positioning. The GPS Antenna Icon will reappear once
the positioning is complete.
If you have not had the GPS external antenna installed, please connect it with
the dashboard to imcrease the reception sensitivity.
Q: My GMOS can not record logs.
The reason might be that the GPS Core was positioning, that the memory was
full, or that the number of logs recorded had reached 254. Please refer to page
14 for more information.
Q: Why was the G-force bar not back at zero when I was riding at a constant
speed?
Please check to see if the sensor is installed vertical to the ground securely. A
tilted sensor might affect G-force and lean angle measurement.
If it stayed maxed out, the indicator inside the G sensor was stuck. Please give
the sensor a few light taps and it will be back to zero.
Q: Why was there no lap time produced when I passed through a Finish Line?
This might be that the GPS reception is not good enough when the Finish Line
was being set automatically. As a result, the GPS position of the Line “drifted”
away from the actual location. To avoid such deviation, try to set the Track when
at least two of the lines in the GPS Antenna Icon are shown. Also, make sure
that your dashboard or external antenna is installed away from the fuel tank area
with a clear view of the sky. If you would like to change the width after a Line has
been set, please go to Track manager to configure the setting.
Another reason might be that the track orientation was set in reverse. As a
result, the Finish Line crossing was viewed as invalid by GMOS. To change the
orientation, please go to Track Manager to configure the setting.
