FAQs

What is the main advantage of the GPS09 module over standard GPS systems?

The GPS09 module integrates both GPS and Glonass satellite signals, providing significantly improved accuracy (less than one meter tolerance) and reliability by ensuring signal continuity even if one system experiences interference.

How quickly can I start recording data after turning on the module?

The GPS09 module is designed for rapid satellite lock, typically ready to operate within a few seconds after power-on.

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

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

Is the GPS09 module waterproof?

Yes, the GPS09 module is designed to be waterproof, making it suitable for various weather conditions.

What versions of the GPS09 module are available?

Several versions are available, including 'Standard' models with different positional accuracies (0.5m, 1.3m, 2m, or 4m) and 'Roof Versions' (2m or 4m) designed for easier installation on covered cars or fairings.

How do I mount the 'Roof Version' on a motorcycle fairing?

The 'Roof Version' can be bolted through the fairing. A key advantage is that the cable can be detached at the GPS module, making removal quicker and more convenient.

What data can be acquired with the GPS09 module?

The module immediately samples lap times, split times, speed, position, and acceleration as soon as you start your session.

Troubleshooting

No satellite signal detected

Ensure the module has a clear view of the sky. Check CAN cable connections to the data logger. Verify the module is compatible with your AIM system.

Inaccurate lap times

Confirm that the start/finish line is correctly configured in your data logger software. Ensure the GPS09 module is correctly positioned with an unobstructed view of the sky. Check for interference from other electronic devices.

Intermittent data loss

Check for secure cable connections. Relocate the module to an area with fewer potential obstructions or sources of signal interference. The dual GPS/Glonass system should minimize this, but severe interference can still occur.

Module not recognized by data logger

Verify that the module is compatible with your specific AIM data logger model. Check the CAN cable for damage and ensure it is properly seated at both ends.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly enhanced positional accuracy compared to older GPS systems.
  • High reliability due to the use of both GPS and Glonass signals.
  • Quick startup time means less waiting and more immediate data capture.
  • Compact and waterproof design for robust outdoor use.
  • Flexible installation options suit various vehicle types.

Cons

  • Not compatible with AIM Evo 4 data logger.
  • Not compatible with AIM SmartyCam HD (inc Rev 2.1) and earlier GP HD models.
  • Requires a compatible AIM data acquisition system to function.
  • Different versions have varying cable lengths, requiring careful selection.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The GPS09 module connects to your compatible AIM data logger via a CAN cable. Its integrated design allows for flexible mounting in various locations. For covered vehicles, the "Roof Version" offers streamlined installation with cable entry from underneath. For motorcycle fairings, bolting the module through the fairing and detaching the cable at the module provides a convenient setup.

Compatibility: This module is NOT compatible with AIM Evo 4 data logger, AIM SmartyCam HD (including Rev 2.1), or earlier GP HD models. Ensure your AIM data acquisition system supports the GPS09 module.

Care: The GPS09 module is waterproof. Clean the unit with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure cable connections are secure and free from debris.
