8.3 Connection of the External GPS Antenna to TMD2
The instructions for the connection of the GPS antenna are provided below.
You need to connect the GPS antenna before positioning
TMD2
, in order
to be sure that the antenna and the device are close enough.
Do not shorten the coaxial cable of the GPS antenna.
Do not run the antenna cable near moving gear and
mechanisms, in order to prevent the cable from being damaged.
Do not cover the GPS antenna with shielding or metallic
materials.
Do not fasten the GPS antenna near other antennas or other
radio devices (ex.: CBs, Radars, mobile phones, etc.).
If you intend to position the GPS antenna inside the passenger
compartment, make sure the vehicle's windows are not screened.
Otherwise, you should find a spot with non-screened glass
identifiable by a different transparency.
Proceed as follows:
1. Remove the rubber cap that protects the connector.
2. Insert the connector of the external GPS antenna connector into the
device's connector by slightly pressing it until you hear a "click".
