EMC performance is attained. Overview of the NI 9467 The NI 9467 is a stationary GPS timing module for C Series platforms. It provides accurate timing and geographic location information to the C Series host, which enables synchronization of C Series systems.
Connecting the NI 9467 The NI 9467 has one SMA female connector on its front panel for a GPS active antenna. The connector provides a DC voltage to power the antenna and also serves as input for the GPS RF signal.
National Instruments recommends a GPS signal strength of between –135 dBm and –120 dBm at the NI 9467 SMA input. GPS signal strength on the Earth’s surface is typically –130 dBm. Targeting a signal strength of –125 dBm at the SMA input, you can compute the maximum cable length as: Max_cable_loss = –130 dBm + antenna_gain –...
In sleep mode, the system consumes minimal power and may dissipate less heat than it does in normal mode. Refer to the Specifications section for more information about power consumption and thermal dissipation. NI 9467 Operating Instructions and Specifications ni.com...

Note that when the NI 9467 is in sleep mode, the GPS receiver is not powered and stops tracking satellites. When the module exits sleep mode and power to the GPS receiver is restored, the module goes through the normal power-up process, which includes the ephemeris/almanac data acquisition and self-survey process.
Higher signal strength might saturate the receiver and degrade performance. For the best timing accuracy performance, ensure that the GPS antenna has a clear view of the sky. Refer to the Antenna Installation section for more details. NI 9467 Operating Instructions and Specifications ni.com...
