coming from one or both GNSS
receivers for at least 1.5seconds.
This could be caused by:
l different firmware versions
on the GNSS receivers of a
dual GNSS system
l a problem with a GNSS
receiver
l a cabling fault
l a problem with a GNSS
receiver configuration
To check that the GNSS receivers have been detected
and that the firmware versions are the same, use the
procedure in 7.3 Running system diagnostics.
To check that the receivers are powered, use the
information in 7.6.2 GNSS receiver status indicators.
Check the cable, power, and connections. Check the
physical condition of the GNSS receivers.
Turn off the control box and turn it back on.

one or both GNSS receivers.
To check that the data radio has been detected, use the
procedure in 7.3 Running system diagnostics.
To check that the radio is powered and synchronized, use
the information in7.6 Troubleshooting system
components
Check that the channel setting for the radio matches that of
the base station.
