As mentioned previously, in order for WinFrog to communicate with the MX9400
using only one of the MX9400’s four ports, WinFrog reassigns the data output to port
1 of the MX9400, as seen below.
This configuration has assigned PC Control input, Raw data Output, and NMEA
output to port 1. Differential correction data (RTCM) is still assigned to port 3 - this is
to where you would connect the DGPS receiver.
The configuration above has also defined the output of NMEA format $GPGGA
positional data, and raw Pseudorange/Ephemeris/Time data required for WinFrog’s
Multi-Ref positioning. This configuration is typical of that used in most WinFrog
operations. If you are only using the MX9400’s internally calculated position, you
need only select a Position ($GPGGA or $GPGLL) item.
Once this dialog box is correctly configured, click the
OK
button. WinFrog sends the
configuration commands to the MX9400, and closes the dialog. To reconfigure any one
of these options, select the MX9400 device in the I/O Devices dialog box, then right
click and select Edit I/O. Click OK to close the standard Edit I/O dialog box, at which
point the
Configure MX Serial Ports
dialog box appears.
WINFROG I/O DEVICES > CONFIGURE DEVICE:
This device must be configured at the I/O Device window level. In the I/O Devices
window, click the device name to select it, then right-click and select Configure Device.
The MX9400 Configuration dialog box appears, as seen below.
