15. Why does the Seagull 5000i keep rebooting at random intervals with GmPRS tracking enabled?

Answer

The random reboot could be mostly due to the following two reasons

1.       Unstable power supply to the unit. Generally speaking, the recommended operating voltage ranges from 10.8V to 31.2V. The recommended operating power will be 10W for the standard passive antenna system and 30 to 40W for the active antenna systems, depending on the types of antenna used.

Heavy traffic on the Ethernet port due to large-size file downloading or multi-pages web surfing, which disrupt the tracking functions.
