FAQs

What is the accuracy of the GPS09 module?

The GPS09 module offers high accuracy with an average tolerance of less than one meter, achieved by combining signals from both GPS and Glonass satellite systems.

How quickly does the GPS09 module acquire a signal?

The module is designed to lock onto satellite signals very rapidly, typically within a few seconds after switch-on.

Can I use the GPS09 module with my existing AIM Evo 4 logger?

No, the AIM GPS09 module is not compatible with the AIM Evo 4 data logger.

Is the GPS09 module waterproof?

Yes, the GPS09 module is waterproof, making it suitable for various environmental conditions.

What is the difference between the 'Standard' and 'Roof Version' models?

The 'Roof Version' is specifically designed for easier installation on vehicle roofs or fairings, often featuring alternative cable entry points, while 'Standard' versions are for general mounting.

Does the GPS09 module come with a data logger?

No, the GPS09 module is an add-on accessory and requires a compatible AIM data logger to record and display the acquired data.

What does Glonass offer over standard GPS?

Glonass is another global satellite navigation system. By using signals from both GPS and Glonass, the GPS09 module increases the number of visible satellites, improving accuracy and reliability, especially in challenging environments.

Troubleshooting

Module not acquiring satellite signal

Ensure the module has a clear view of the sky. Check that the CAN cable is securely connected to both the GPS09 module and the data logger. Verify that the GPS09 module is enabled in the data logger's configuration settings.

Inaccurate lap times or position data

Confirm that the track mapping within the data logger software is correct and up-to-date. Ensure the module is mounted securely and has a clear view of the sky. Check for potential sources of signal interference.

Data logger not recognizing the GPS09 module

Verify the CAN cable connection. Restart both the GPS09 module and the data logger. Ensure the data logger firmware is up-to-date and supports the GPS09 module.
