Tips for Using the GPS Expansion Pod
Keep the following tips in mind while using the Allegro with the
GPS expansion pod:
When attempting to receive GPS signals, get the clearest view
of the sky as possible. Obstructions such as buildings, trees,
mountains, and your body can keep signals from reaching the
receiver.
Do not cover the antenna with anything while you are using the
system.
The antenna can be mounted on a vehicle or a pole, a longer
cable is required to do this. Contact our Sales Department for
details.
Using the GPS expansion pod, and GIS or GPS software running
on the Allegro may cause the Allegro battery to drain at a
faster rate. This rate depends on the software and how much
processing is taking place.
The PC card slot is accessible while the GPS expansion pod is
attached to the Allegro. Refer to Hardware Features, PC Card Slot
in Chapter 2 of this manual, for details on how to use it. There is
a fl at, brown fl ex cable that is part of the expansion pod that is
visible when you open the pod door. Do not twist, bend, or break
this cable while you are using the PC card slot.
If you remove the antenna, place the protective cap over the
antenna connector to keep dirt and moisture out.
