TMAA05-05/TMAA05-06 GPS Receivers
Installation Instructions
Introduction
The TMAA05-05 and TMAA05-06 GPS receivers
integrate a high performance 16-channel GPS receiver
into a fully weatherproof, IP67-rated housing.
The TMAA05-05 has a magnetic mount housing, and
the TMAA05-06 allows for through-hole mount for
permanent installation.
Both GPS receivers include an adapter cable connecting
to the auxiliary connector of your mobile radio, and a
connector cover to provide additional retention for the
mini-DIN connector.
The adapter cable’s 15-way connector contains a voltage
regulator providing the correct voltage from the radio to
the GPS receiver.
The GPS receivers operate at a frequency of
1575.42MHz (±10MHz).
Installation Precautions
Warning
When mounting the GPS receiver inside a vehicle, make sure you mount
it securely. Unsecured equipment is dangerous to the vehicle occupants.
Notice
When drilling holes in a vehicle, check that drilling at the selected points will
not damage existing wiring, fuel tanks, fuel lines, brake pipes or battery cables.
Notice
GPS accuracy may be influenced by close radiation sources (such as transmit-
ting radio antennas). This must be taken into consideration when choosing the mounting
location of the GPS antenna and cabling. If unsure please contact your radio provider.
GPS Receiver Installation
1 Drill any holes required for the cables and install suitable grommets or bushings in the
holes.
2 Run the adapter cable to the radio and plug it into the 15-way auxiliary connector.
3 Position the GPS receiver where it has an uninterrupted view of the sky. This can be on
the roof of the vehicle or on the rear parcel tray in the vehicle.
