4.2.3 Configuring GPS Notification Alarm Thresholds
SecureSync allows you to configure Minor and Major alarm thresholds for the GNSS receiver.
This is done by setting the minimum number of satellites the receiver can track for a set time
before an alarm is triggered. If both conditions are met, i.e. the reception quality falls below
the set number of satellites for the set amount of time, an alarm is triggered.
The alarm notification feature described below allows you to be notified of a potential recep
tion issue BEFORE the GNSS reference becomes invalid. This may be useful e.g., to notify sys
tem operators of a deteriorating signal reception before SecureSync possibly losing the GNSS
reference.
Note that SecureSync itself has a pre-defined minimum number of satellites that must be tracked
in order for GNSS to be considered a valid reference. The minimum number of satellites
depends e.g., on your receiver mode (see "Selecting a GNSS Receiver Mode" on page172),
the GNSS signal reception in the area where your antenna is located, and the receiver type.
For SAASM units and in Stationary Mode, the minimum number of satellites is normally 4
(four). Hence, it would be suggested to set the Minor Alarm Threshold to 8, and the Major
Alarm Threshold to 6.
