Cellular, GPS, and Satellite
During gateway or instrument operation, unintended interference can weaken wireless signals.
To ensure cellular connectivity, the vehicle in which the gateway is installed must be in a location where
cellular service is available. You can use a cell phone to determine if cellular service is available in the
area. Be knowledgeable of any dead zones that can interfere with cellular transmission.
•
If cellular service is not available, moving the vehicle may resolve the issue.
•
If cellular service is available, be sure to allow sufficient time for the TGX to complete its start-up, boot
up, and make wireless connections (up to six minutes).
GPS and Satellite reception require outdoor, open-sky positioning with an unobstructed view of the sky
above and of the surrounding horizon. Avoid obstructions (e.g., buildings) that can block wireless signals.
