1. Introduction
1.1 Overview
The
Rikaline
GPS-6010-X5 Smart Antenna
is a total solution GPS receiver, designed based on
SiRF Star
IIe
Architecture with the newest Xtrac II
high sensitivity
system. This revolutionary system provides you
unbelievable positioning sensitivity allowing you to have easy position fix in urban canyon conditions. This
positioning application meets strict needs such as car navigation, mapping, surveying, security, agriculture and
so on. Only clear view of sky and certain power supply are necessary to the unit. It communicates with other
electronic utilities via compatible dual-channel through RS-232 or TTL and saves critical satellite data by
built–in backup memory. With low power consumption, the
GPS-6010-X5
tracks up to 12 satellites at a time,
re-acquires satellite signals in 100 ms and updates position data every second. Trickle-Power allows the unit
operates a fraction of the time and Push-to-Fix permits user to have a quick position fix even though the
receiver usually stays off.
1.2 Features
The GPS-6010-X5 provides a host of features that make it easy for integration and use.
1.
SiRF Star II
chipset with embedded ARM7TDMI CPU available for customized applications in firmware.
2. High performance receiver tracks up to 12 satellites while providing first fast fix and low power
consumption.
3. Compact design ideal for applications with minimal space.
4. A rechargeable battery sustains internal clock and memory. It is recharged during normal operation.
5. User initialization is not required.
6. Dual communication channels and user selectable baud rates allow maximum interface capability and
flexibility.
7. Dual communication levels, RS-232 and TTL meet ordinary application and PDA navigation.
8. FLASH based program memory: New software revisions upgradeable through serial interface.
9. LED display status: The LED provides users visible status. LED “ON” when power connected.
10. Built-in WAAS / EGNOS demodulator.
