Connecting the GPS receiver to the terminal
Find out how to connect a GPS receiver from Müller-Elektronik to the terminal from the operating
instructions for the GPS receiver.
When mounting the terminal in a vehicle which is already fitted with a GPS receiver and another
ISOBUS terminal, you must:
▪ connect the GPS signal to the terminal manufactured by Müller-Elektronik.
▪ configure the GPS receiver.
To connect the terminal to a GPS receiver which is already installed on the vehicle:
1. Find out how you can direct the signal from the GPS receiver to the terminal. This can differ for
every vehicle or GPS receiver: Vehicles can be fitted with a GPS socket in the cab, a GPS
receiver with a serial output or serial outputs to the ISOBUS terminal.
2. Check what cable you will use to connect GPS signal to the serial socket on the terminal
manufactured by Müller-Elektronik.
3. Connect the GPS signal to the serial socket of the terminal manufactured by Müller-Elektronik.
4. Configure the GPS receiver so that it can communicate with the terminal manufactured by
Müller-Elektronik. You can find the necessary specifications for this in the table below.
5. Activate the “Standard” GPS driver on the terminal.

Changing the driver for the GPS receiver
Upon delivery, the “Standard” driver is activated on the terminal. You must change this driver if you
want to reconfigure the GPS receiver, for example, to change the correction signal. In this case, you
must select a driver that is fitting for the GPS receiver.
