Antenna Reset Tools
Special tools are available in the MX51x CDU that can be used to reset the GPS and
Beacon engines in the smart antenna. Use them only in extreme cases when the GPS or
beacon receiver fails or takes too long to lock-on. The “MX Ant Reset” softkey will clear
the satellite almanac memory of the GPS engine and reset all settings of the antenna to
factory default conditions. The “CSI Reset” softkey resets the differential beacon board.
