1.0 Cautions

GPS (Global Positioning System) is a satellite-based navigation system. In an unobstructed clear view of the sky, GPS works anywhere in the world, 24 hours a day. GPS is developed and operated by the government of United States. Under the policy of the government, the degradation in accuracy shall occur without prior warnings, and sometimes satellites dont transmit signal due to adjustment, test, and orbital revision. Please be aware that the performance of the GPS receiver module does not warrant against the above factors. Also, please note: 1. products such as motors, computer, and RF devices, which emmit high levels of magnetic field and interference that may cause the performance of the GPS unit to drop. 2. the optimal position during automobile applications is on the roof top of the vehicles. If the GPS unit is to be placed inside the car, be certain to avoid coverage by metal objects for optimal performance. (Position Accur acy) Position data and position accuracy are affected or degraded by the satellite geometry, electric magnetic interference, and multipath. (Equipment) The high frequency noise will interfere with signal receiving. The high frequency noise within the receiver frequency band, 1575Mhz 10MHz, will affect the receiver quality. Also, because of the mixer and modulation, the low frequency noise will be increased by several times. If this increased frequency drops into the 1575MHz 10MHz band, it will also affect the receiver quality. Another warning should be notified. GPS receiver modules should not be placed close to heat and fans. Drastic changes in temperature will degrade the signal receiving strength even when operating within the operation temperature. Crystal and crystal oscillator on PCB ASSY should be kept away from the cooling fan. (Power ) If the impedance of the power terminal is too high (power cable too thin and over 10 cm long), then S/N will be degraded. Please insert condenser (above 47gF) into cable terminal to remove ripple. (Oper ation) Static electricity will destroy IC and erase backup data. Wear anti static electricity bundle while you are using the GPS Receive Module). Besides static electricity, plugging in or out the connector while power on will cause initialization. Make sure this is performed under power-off condition.

(Antenna) In order to strengthen the sensitivity for car navigation, GPS antenna is suggested to mount on a flat place around 80x80mm.

(War r anty) If the product fails within one year after the date of delivery while it has been used properly it will be replaced or repaired free of charge. (Environmental conditions) The product should be suitably installed or shielded so that it should not be affected by high frequency (1575.42MHz10MHz) noises from other devices like CPUs. Dont allow the airflow from the cooling fan to come directly to the quartz crystal oscillator in the receiver module. 2.0 Absolute Maximum Ratings Note: This module is not intended to operate under the conditions listed in Absolute Maximum Ratings.
