Satellite Reception
DriftBox calculates all of its logged data from the information it receives from GPS satellites and
relies on being able to get a good lock to produce this data. So it is imperative that DriftBox (or
optional external antenna) is placed in the best possible position for a clear view of the sky.
If you are using an external antenna, ensure that it is connected before you power up DriftBox.
The location that you drive in can also affect data quality, if you drive in a very built up area or an
area with overhanging trees then the signal quality can degrade. If the satellite reception does drop
out in use, you will see either of the following symbols:
1.
2.
3.
Searching for satellites at power up
Whilst the DriftBox is acquiring satellites it will flash the image of a satellite, the location of the
flashing image depends on the screen you are in.
