DS-VGPS-HS
TECHNICAL REFERENCE MANUAL
Serial number
Serial number of the connected GPS sensor. Serial number is recorded to reconstruct the measurement
conditions.
Receiver dynamic settings
Depending on the application, the DS-VGPS-HS offers the possibility to set it into three different
settings.
These can be done in the pull down menu Receiver dynamic settings.
●
Highest (car performance for analog out): This setting should be used if the low latency time of 12
ms at the analog and speed output is needed.
●
High (handling test): Because of the PPS-Sync facility of the DS-VGPS-HS, this setting will not
increase the latency time and the dynamic behavior using the serial interface for data acquisition.
The delay time at the analog and displacement output may be up to 22 ms.
●
Normal (data logging): Select this mode for highest accuracy and lowest noise of the position
and velocity signal
Reset receiver
The “Reset receiver” button will reset the internally used receiver. This function has no influence on all
settings below.
Update rate (Hz)
This setting will define the sample rate of the serial data storage. Please note at 100 Hz only affects
velocity, distance and acceleration channel. At this update rate the position output is reduced to 20 Hz.
Up to 50 Hz, all channels are stored with this rate.
Receiver mode
The receiver supports receiving correction (differential mode) signals like WAAS (for USA) or EGNOS (for
Europe). It is recommended to enable differential mode to increase the accuracy of the absolute
position.
External display
On the receiver port 'a' the DS-VGPS-HS supports the VGPS-Display.
