How to install the GPS locator ?
How to install and place GPS locators, and what are the requirements for the installation environment? Why does the same product have different effects when used in different vehicles?
What are the reasons that affect the positioning accuracy of GPS locators? I believe this is a question in the minds of many car owners.
Many car owners throw the locator on the car after they buy it, and then start to use it. In this way, we do not recommend it.
Because the positioning accuracy of GPS tracker for automobile depends on the environment and external weather factors of the GPS locators, in addition to the workmanship, materials and chips of the equipment itself. How to install the GPS locator?
Installation position selection of GPS locator
The selection of the installation location of GPS locators is very important. We know that locators belong to electronic products, and it is well-known that the sensitivity and life of electronic products will be affected by environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, signal source, etc., so we should pay attention to waterproof, shockproof and anti-interference when selecting the installation location, and do a good job of corresponding protection.
A. Waterproof: The location where water is not easy to enter shall be selected to ensure the dryness of the terminal. Attention shall be paid to keeping away from the air outlet of the air conditioner to prevent condensation water from accumulating in the terminal when the temperature difference changes, which will seriously affect the service life of the product.
B. Shockproof: GPS car tracking cannot be installed in the position with large long-term vibration. It can be fixed with ties, strong magnetic absorption, or pasted with strong velcro.
C. High temperature and low temperature protection: all electronic products have a working temperature range. For example, a brand of ultra long standby positioner A5C-3 has a working temperature range of - 25 ℃~+75 ℃. If this range is exceeded, faults will occur. Some car owners directly install the locator on the car roof or near the exhaust pipe, which is very undesirable in summer.
In the sun, the temperature of the car roof may reach 80-100 degrees or more, which can be tolerated by remote equipment and seriously damage the equipment. The same goes for cold weather. When the ambient temperature exceeds the normal operating temperature range of the terminal, power off is recommended.
D. Ash prevention: there is much dust on the road, and the accumulated dust covers the surface of the GPS car tracker device and penetrates into the equipment, affecting the positioning accuracy and service life.
E. Anti interference: GPS locators shall be far away from audio, video, intercom and other electronic equipment in the vehicle to prevent conductive interference and radiation interference.
Why does the GPS positioning antenna need to face upwards? The reason is very simple. The GPS satellite signal is vertically downward, and the side of the antenna receiving the GPS signal is directly downward.
In this way, the reception of the sub signal must be discounted. Some car owners and enterprises do not pay attention to these details when purchasing GPS locators, which leads to inaccurate positioning. It has to be mentioned that one of the characteristics of GPS signals is that they cannot penetrate metal objects and concrete structures, so there should be no metal objects above the GPS antenna when installing the locator. Many car owners stick a car film on the car body to protect their cars.
The car film has a great impact on the reception of GPS signals, even directly blocks the signals. All car owners should pay attention to this. Others hide the locator in a very hidden position for the concealment of equipment installation, which is actually not conducive to the reception of GPS signals. This is also the reason that many equipment needs professional personnel to debug and install.
Avoid low GPS locator battery
When installing GPS locators, in order to avoid inaccurate positioning, pay attention to the remaining power of the locators, especially those GPS locators without wiring and without installation. The battery charge is too low, which is easy to cause drift, deviation and other results.
