GPS reception
GPS reception is highly dependent on atmospheric conditions.
Reception problems can occur in the following situations:
GPS signals are blocked within tunnels.
Covers suppress the GPS reception signal.
GPS signals are blocked within buildings.
In side buildings (high-rise buildings in particular), the GPS signal is lower and interference
can occur.
In forests or when passing through densely vegetated areas, the GPS signal can be lower
and interference can occur.
The following factors can also impair signal quality or interfere with the reception signal:
Sun blinds inside a vehicle
Walls, reinforced concrete ceilings
Coated/metallised insulated glass
Proximity to metallic & conductive objects
Broadband interferences, e.g. in residential areas (DECT telephones, mobiles, radio-control-
led headphones, radio-controlled speakers, radio-controlled weather stations, baby phones
etc.)
Proximity to electric motors, transformers, power supply units
proximity to badly shielded or openly operated computers or other electric devices.
When switching on the product for the fi rst time or if you have transported it over
more than 500 km when switched off, we recommend that you position it in the
open air (within your eld of vision) in order to guarantee proper reception and
correct position determination.
