$GNTXT,01,01,02,ANTSTATUS=OK*25
ANTSUPERV=AC
indicates antenna control is activated
3.6.2 Antenna short detection - ANT_SHORT_N
Enable the antenna short detection by setting the configuration item CFG-HW-
ANT_CFG_SHORTDET to true (1).
Result:
• UBX-MON-RF in u-center "Message View": Antenna status = OK. Antenna power status = ON
• ANT_OFF = active high to disable an external antenna therefore the pin is low to enable an
external antenna.
• ANT_SHORT_N = active low to detect a short therefore the pin is high (PIO pull up enabled to be
pulled low if shorted)
Start-up message at power up if configuration is stored:
$GNTXT,01,01,02,ANTSUPERV=AC SD *37
$GNTXT,01,01,02,ANTSTATUS=INIT*3B
$GNTXT,01,01,02,ANTSTATUS=OK*25
ANTSUPERV=AC SD
(Antenna control and short detection activated)
Then if shorted (ANT_SHORT_N pulled low):
• UBX-MON-RF in u-center "Message View": Antenna status = SHORT. Antenna power status =
ON (Antenna power control power down when short has not been enabled = off by default).
$GNTXT,01,01,02,ANTSTATUS=SHORT*73
• ANT_OFF = active high therefore still low (still enabled as auto power down is not enabled)
After a detected antenna short, the reported antenna status will keep on being reported as
shorted. If the antenna short detection auto recovery is enabled, then the antenna status
can recover after a timeout. To recover the antenna status immediately, a power cycle is
required or configuring the antenna short detection functionality off and on.
3.6.3 Antenna short detection auto recovery
Enable the antenna short detection auto recovery by setting the configuration item CFG-HW-
ANT_CFG_RECOVER to true (1).
Result:
• UBX-MON-RF in u-center "Message View": Antenna status = OK. Antenna power status = ON
• ANT_OFF = active high there for the PIO is low to enable an external antenna
• ANT_SHORT_N = high (PIO pull up enabled to be pulled low if shorted)
Start-up message at power up if configuration is stored:
$GNTXT,01,01,02,ANTSUPERV=AC SD PDoS SR*3E
$GNTXT,01,01,02,ANTSTATUS=INIT*3B
$GNTXT,01,01,02,ANTSTATUS=OK*25
ANTSUPERV=AC SD PDoS SR
