Field Level

Field level will calibrate the SCM/TGM’s level surface value.
Before performing Field Level:

• 

Use a quality GPS receiver/antenna

• 

Make sure the GPS antenna is mounted as per the manufacturer’s 

installation instructions

• 

The SCM/TGM 

must be securely mounted

 to a surface that 

moves in parallel to the surface that the GPS antenna is mounted 

on.  For example, if the antenna is mounted to the roof of the cab, 

the SCM/TGM should be mounted to another surface on the cab, 

not on the chassis. 

• 

Mount the SCM/TGM on a horizontal surface with the connectors 

facing straight up and the arrow on the decal pointing in the 

primary direction of travel.

• 

Choose a calibration site that is as level as possible

To calibrate the SCM/TGM:
1.  Position the vehicle on a level surface. Let vehicle sit/settle for at 

least 10 seconds.

2. 

Select 

 Field Level 

3.  Let vehicle sit/settle for at least 10 seconds.
4. 

Press 

 OK 

.

NOTE:  Until vehicle has been stopped for at least 10 seconds, 

 OK 

 

will not be available.

5.  Get out of the vehicle to mark on the ground the exact position of 

the vehicle (use paint, sticks, or something similar).

6.  Turn the vehicle 180 degrees and reposition the vehicle in exactly 

the same location (the front wheels should now be where the 

back wheels were, and the back wheels should be where the front 

wheels were).

7.  Let vehicle sit/settle for at least 10 seconds.
8. 

Press 

 OK 

.  

NOTE:  Until vehicle has been stopped for at least 10 seconds, 

 OK 

 

will not be available.
