1. Introduction
1.1 Overview
The
Rikaline
GPS-6021-X6 High Sensitivity CF GPS Receiver
is a total solution GPS receiver, designed
based on
SiRF Star II
Architecture with the newest
Xtrac
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 and saves critical
satellite data by built–in backup memory. With low power consumption, the
GPS-6021-X6
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-6021-X6 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. Differential capability (Optional function built by demand) utilizes real-time RTCM corrections producing 1-5
meter position accuracy.
4. Compact design ideal for applications with minimal space.
5. A rechargeable battery sustains internal clock and memory. It is recharged during normal operation.
6. User initialization is not required.
7. Dual communication channels and user selectable baud rates allow maximum interface capability and
flexibility.
8. FLASH based program memory: New software revisions upgradeable through serial interface.
9. LED display status: The LED will be “ON” when power connected.
10. Built-in WAAS / EGNOS demodulator.
