Tilt Compensation Module Installation
Mount the Tilt Compensation module as close to the center of the vehicle •
side as possible.
Mount the module on a plain parallel to the GPS antenna so that both the
•
antenna and the sensor tilt the same degree.
Mount the module so the sensor is level and the connector is pointing
•
upward.
The module should be mounted rigidly to minimize vibration. Vibration will
•
degrade the ability to sense tilt.
It is recommended that nuts and bolts be used or self-tapping screws be
•
used through the two mounting holes on each end of the module.
The arrow on the module decal must be pointing toward the front of the
•
vehicle.
DO NOT mount the module near extreme temperatures, upside down, or
•
on its side.
Guidance information is affected when the vehicle experiences a sideways tilt. For
example, if the GPS sensor is 12 feet (3.65 meters) above the ground, a 10 degree
tilt gives a 2 foot (0.61 meter) positioning error.
