Weak location
The hub needs to be:
• The hub needs to be located in a dry area with
strong cellular and GPS signals using a wall
mounted bracket so that it is horizontal.
•
The signal can normally penetrate through
a fibreglass deck
but less through metal or
insulation.
The hub has two lights as shown - a green one for GPS
signal and amber for cellular signal.
When the hub is first connected to your battery, both lights
on the top corner of the hub should flash slowly (around
once per second).
Shortly after, if there is adequate signal coverage,
the amber light (cellular signal) should start to flash
quickly (around twice per second) and the green light
(GPS signal) slowly.
After a few minutes, if both the amber and green lights
are
both flashing quickly
, the location of your hub has
adequate signal strength and you are ready to mount it.
Proceed to step 3.
Note:
If either the green or amber lights are flashing slowly,
you will need to move the hub to a new location where the
hub has a better cellular and/or GPS signal until both lights
flash quickly.
