03 - VIPS Rover Connection to VBOX 3i
The Rover unit can connect to a standard VBOX 3i and switches seamlessly between GNSS and the indoor positioning
system, allowing you to use your original hardware for both outdoor and indoor testing. As the VIPS is designed to be
used with IMU Integration enabled, the same
should be performed as normal.
For indoor only use, it is important that the VBOX 3i does not have a GNSS antenna connected. If the VBOX receives a
satellite signal, even a poor one, the timing will change from the internal clock to GNSS time, causing the VIPS system
to fail. the VBOX 3i will function the same as when using GNSS in terms of CAN In / Out, data logging (analogue, etc.)
and VBOX Test Suite use.
When indoor/outdoor operation is selected, the VIPS system will wait for GNSS lock and IMU synchronisation before
attempting to initialise the VIPS positioning.
